Frequency and how to know the dose - new user questions, please help.

[robotrock77]

Hi all

Im a new user of the crystal powder form (mandy).

i did some 2 weeks back (it wasnt my first time though) and it was amazing.

yesturday i took some and not only did i not come up properly (not sure why, I thought i took the same dose) but i felt sick the the entire time plus all night.

How often should i wait to do E to make sure i have the best trip like i did 2 weeks ago?

Also, i dont have a scale, so how can i check how much im doing? i like to keep my dose at 175 -250mg but i have no way of knowing how much that looks like (eyeballing it)

Well you always need to make sure you test ANYTHING you take. Could be you got different stuff, maybe bad stuff the second time.... The rule of thumb is to wait 3 weeks to a month to dose again. I like to wait 6-8 weeks. This gives your brain and serotonin time to replenish itself. If you used the same stuff, could be you used not enough, or someone gave u a 'real' dose the first time and sold you crap. Don't know for sure, but that's why important to test everything you take. Also very hard to eyeball proper doses, best bet is to get a cheap digital
Scale that way to can
Dose properly and not risk overdoing it. Hope this helps.....and stay safe!

Hiya, thanks for the reply!

It was from the same batch as i had bought 1 g together.

perhaps its because i didnt wait long enough?
i kept on waiting and waiting after the first 25 mins, i took more, and still nothing
and then another 25 mins more, took some more (im literally talking just a bit, like enough to cover and pencil-top eraser.

Eventually got up, but it was no where near as pleasurable as it was when i took it 2 weeks back, were i was literally high as the sing within 20 mins.

Could it be that i took to much time with taking little doses? and that next time i shud just take one hit of what i think amounts to 200 mg?

Yeah, it could be you didn't wait long enough, but if it's good stuff and you took a decent amount, you'd still feel
Some good effects. My guess is that you didn't take quite enough the second time. I would wait bout a month next time, and get some scales. If you don't have scales, and know that u have a gram, try and separate the gram into 5 equal parts, and then you will have pretty close to your 200mg's.

 

[Heh?!]

Wait a minimum of one month, 2-3 is a much safer bet. Once a month could still catch up with you pretty quick. Aside from a scale, all you can do is take your original amount and start splitting it up into even piles, like 4evr said.

Many people on here talk about how they won't mess with pressed pills cause they're always cut, but molly is much, much easier to adulterate than a pill. Testing is important, but if you've tried this stash before it was likely the fact that you didn't wait long enough between rolls...however 175-200 mg is a hefty dose, and would have most people rolling very, very hard.

Frequency is a big discussion here, because MDMA is so unique in that timing it properly (1-3 months off) is essential to rolling safely and having fun. Theres lots of good insight here: http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/590419-How-often-do-you-roll

MDMA is also a chemical that changes depending greatly on setting, mindset, people around you, dose, and obviously where you are with the drug in your use (it's rare session #58 will ever feel like session #2). It's always good to go in without expectations if you can help it, and realize it's a slightly different journey each time. I have had amazing MDMA experience of average pills merely a month after my last use, and I've had OK experiences off high quality pills after 8 months abstinence- sometimes science can't even explain why it's amazing, or not. The psychedelic element of MDMA makes rolling very subjective to your environment, what may be on your mind that you choose not to normally think about, who you are with, an event that happens as you're coming up etc.
