Hello everyone,

My friend is trying ecstasy for the first time (they're blue G/Lady pills, which have been reported from having MDMA to nothing to speed or even pipes). Our other friend wants him to snort half a pill. Would this be a bad idea for a first timer? He's also concerned about the brain damage aspect, so he wants personal experiences with ecstasy: he's going to be taking antioxidants half an hour before the X and some 5-HTP afterwards. For any of those who have done ecstasy a lot: how bad is the damage? Can you "feel" it? Would it produce a significantly noticeable effect on memory, grades, learning...?

Thanks a lot!
 
Tell him to eat the whole pill. Don't have him snort it because you have no idea what's in it and honestly, does it sound pleasant to have pill binders up your nose? Snorting won't last as long either. There is a reason most people eat rolls.

As for brain damage, one pill, assuming it contains mostly MDMA, will be fine. MDMA is quite hard to overdose on. When people get screwed up, it's usually because they don't space their rolls a month apart. The preload and postload plan is good though. Also, take the antioxidants after the roll too. Your friend might feel hungover the next day but that isn't permanent brain damage. The day or two after rolling, I'll feel a little bummed out and just off a little bit. It's worth it though. It would effect learning and stuff a day or two after, but not permanently unless he starts abusing it. If used correctly, MDMA is significantly safer than alcohol. If abused, you can get into a world of misery. Just be smart and get educated about it. Posting here is a great start.

Also, I suspect you've done this but if not, look on pillreports.com to read up on what others have said about your roll. Make sure the reports are recent and for your area, as a five year old report on a similar looking roll is useless.
 
Yeah as already mentioned there's no need to snort it, eating it works perfectly fine. I don't feel that I've experienced any long-term negative consequences from MDMA use, but some people do so it varies from person to person.
 
Snorting half a pill will not give him brain damage, especially if he has a good idea that it's clean. However, with MDMA the best ROI is taking it orally. It will be a little less intense, but it will last longer.
 
Doing lines of MDMA will always have a special place in my heart... it hits you hard and fast. However, I wouldn't do it with some pills you haven't taken or tested yet. You definitely get more out of dropping but doing a line or two while you're rolling is intense.

The bad side is that it burns like a motherfucker and can leave you with some serious trauma in your nasal cavity if you do it too often. After doing it waaaay too much I swore off doing any more lines over 6 months ago and I still have what seem to be related sinus problems. In addition to that snorting anything else simply didn't work anymore, it's like there's too much scar tissue up there for anything to properly absorb or something. Impossible to find much information about this online so that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Wow, I've always heard snorting MDMA was bad and I guess people weren't kidding. I think my nose is more sensitive than a lot of other people's but that sounds pretty awful. Just curious, how much worse would you say it is snorting rolls compared to decently pure molly? And how often/long did you do this before the problems started?
 
Well its kind of hard to explain... With decently pure molly, the initial burn is stronger than with a pill, but the pain quickly changes in to a pleasurable pain that I'm sure many people can relate to. I remember grabbing my face while my eye watered and thinking "man this hurts... daammn hell yea" haha. With a pill its kind of similar but you're putting binders and less active chemical up there so it feels dirtier but doesn't burn as much usually, so anyway I'm trying to get to the point...

I think because the molly hits so hard when you do it and you can feel such a powerful sensation in your nasal cavity it likely does more damage up there than a pill would. With some pills I did there really wouldn't be much of a sensation at all but they'd still work fine. I did have one batch of pills that, retrospectively, were likely pipes and some other shit because they burnt intensely for literally 30 minutes after each line. I was too stupid at the time to know the difference. I guess my logic is the more burn, the more reaction going on up there and by association the more damage done.

Molly always felt the best to snort but also seemed to burn the most and probably did the most damage. I know some people will say that pills are worse because they are notorious for being impure but I would go so far to say that pure MDMA is worse for your nasal cavity than most adulterants you'd find in pill.

As for how long, for probably six months I never went more than two weeks without having a night where I did some lines of molly/rolls. Some nights would be 7 lines, some less, maybe more, it's all pretty blurry now. Over 100 lines total for sure, my only point being I don't think doing a line of MDMA from time to time is devastating or anything, my nasal cavity was in constant rough shape for a long time.
 
I too suffer damage from snorting too much MDMA. Like Shiznik said, it eventually stopped working. It just wouldn't do absorb anymore... That's when I decided to stop, and it left me with a sinus infection that just won't go away. It's been over six months since I stopped.

If you're going to snort it, I'd recommend snorting little lines during the roll just as a pick me up after you've already eaten it. Oral is way more effective, and the burn will at least be lessened by the fact that you are rolling. I'd also recommend doing this sparingly. It almost makes me sick to think about how much molly I've put up my nose in the past.

Ya I know what you mean. Cocaine only numbs me when I do it on my left side. weird huh? Used to work on both, but I think I did too much on that side..
 
if you have pure then you snort but if its a pill you eat it... id just take a full one half pill will probably not do a whole lot

oh. I'd better stop snorting mdma then, just started doing that recently..
My nose is starting to show some signs of damage as well, mostly from k abuse and the occasional line of mdma/coke, and once 2cb (I thought the pain from mdma was quite manageable.. but holy shit, 2cb sure stings). I don't have a sinus infection, but I sniffle a lot more than I used to, and sometimes i blow out a little blood which isn't that pleasant lol.

anyway back on topic. I'd recommend just ingesting it as well, if its your first time. Snorting M has a faster onset and doesn't last as long, so it's a nice booster if you're already high, as has been said. I also like doing a little line just after I pop so my high begins a little sooner and intensifies once the pill kicks in. Oh, and just so you know, mdma drips are very bitter. Blegh. >.<
 
For your first experience you should just pop the pill - see what the drug feels like and then if you want a more intense but shorter expereince you know that maybe snorting will work for you the next time.
