Ok, so I've decided this weekend or sometime during the week that I'm going to pop some pills and do this alone. I wanted to ask you guys if you've ever rolled alone and how that went for you. The reason I want to do this is because I've heard of people using ecstasy to work on problems in there life and to get some much needed motivation. let me know what you guys think of this and how its turned out for you if you've done this.

i Know many more people who have refractory depression from using too much ecstasy, lol at fixing problems. Ecstasy drains serotonin temporarily and for some people it can take weeks to feel normal after single dosing. Use something like shrooms thats not toxic.

I absolutely can attest to MDMA helping me solve problems- it helped me un-emotionalize everything in my life, and realize I needed to get out of a bad relationship I had been in for almost 8 years. It also made me realize I needed to spend my time and energy with certain people who had my best interest at heart, and it's directly brought me closer to my family.
I describe MDMA as giving you a "birds eye view" of your life- you're not "in it" for the moment, you're above your problems soaring, and you can analyze what you need to do, and what matters, without feeling troubled by all of it. Kind of the way, after you work past a problem, you see it more clearly. "You can't see the forrest through the trees" etc. etc....
I don't think MDMA can get you out of a bad situation in most cases though- I think it will give you a temporary relief. Getting high to "escape" is common, but not really a healthy reason.

i -personally- can't imagine popping ecstasy would help me with my personal problems much. this seems much more suited for acid or mushrooms, or something similar.
ecstasy did help me learn how to socialize, though.. i was quite the hermit for much of my life, and when i finally came out into the world i realized that i still had a lot to learn. doing ecstasy with (and sometimes just around) the right people gave me a jump-start, and i could catch up to everyone my age.

I think MDMA has a lot of potential to help work through certain issues. If anybody doubts this you can look at the research that MAPS has done 
I took a long break from MDMA, but I took some last month with the intention of working through some issues. I didn't have a set plan but I knew I had a lot that I needed to talk about. I have a friend that is a therapist and who has been using psychedelics for a long time, and I spent some time with him just talking about life sitting outside. I knew he would be a good person to hang out with because he is familiar with both therapy and altered states.
Even though it was a great experience, I'm not sure that MDMA provides as much benefit to me as do psychedelics I did two ceremonial Ayahuasca sessions over the last month and plan to continue, but I can honestly say that even those two sessions have changed me.
So yeah, I find that the best part of MDMA is interaction with people. If you are alone, you can still do this online. Bluelight is a great place to come when rolling
But if you want some introspection then alone or one other person is the way to go.

I love rolling alone. My first time was an amazing breakthrough experience that helped me put some issues in perspective and move forward. Not something I expected or intended, but it happened that way. I can only imagine if you set out to get insight into something in your life, it would happen.
Don't listen to people who say rolling alone is boring. It's boring to them because they are bored in their own company.

If MDMA has done anything to my mental health, its only made it 100x worse.
But thats only because I abused it.
At first I would only take it once a month and it would be very enlightening everytime, then I started taking it more and more and more to the point where to kick my MDMA hangover from the night before, I'd take more MDMA. And now my brain is horrendously fucked. Long story short everything just sucks now. Nothings awesome. Don't do it.

This is a recommendation for those of you who have problems with hangovers from MDMA. It is called 5HTP, you can get it at most drug stores. It basically replenishes the chemicals that are used up in the brain by ecstasy such as Serotonin. It is a great drug because then there is no hangover from the use. Give it a try if you don't wanna feel depressed anymore. just take one 6-12 hours after you roll and the depressing feelings should be no more.

Personally, I find MDMA far more useful in a social environment than alone. It helps me reset my usually jaded view of humanity by reminding me of the many kind and wonderful people out there.
I have worked through problems on e that were about my wife like our most intimate issues that I couldnt talk about with anyone- cuz its was really my stuff.
I/ we had also been through couples therapy before that so I had some tools / experience working through issues. the e just allowed me to look at some hard truths in a way that was not threating so I could work around those issues and then move forward with a plan that helped my relationship.
I did work through that in a musical setting so I could have some fun, focus on the issue then go back to the music and the back if I chose to. It was cheaper than seeing a thearapist. I saved $80-......

when not abused mdma has many theraputical benefits, its just that more often then not people take it way more then they should and it causes negative effects
when you want to figure things out roll by urself or with 1 very close friend to talk to

This is a very personal issue for me. It's been said before, but I truly believe that MDMA helped me see how beautiful people and life can be. I had a pretty rough childhood, and went through alot of things that gave me a pretty negative view of people in general. I was a pretty unhappy person in my early-mid teens, as I imagine most people are.
It was when I was seventeen and I first tried MDMA though that I began to see things differently. It allowed me to see that people aren't all bad. In fact, most are truly nice people who are just afraid and make mistakes, in short, they're human.
I love people now. The interaction I get from people is my favorite part of the whole experience. I've grown alot since then, and I've learned some very important life lessons. My family and friends are the most important thing in the world to me. And while many lessons and mistakes have led me to where I am today, I believe it was my first MDMA experience that opened the door.
MDMA can be a powerful therapeutic tool, and it can greatly enrich your outlook and quality of life. Just be sure you're responsible in using it and don't overdo it. It can be incredibly rewarding if used properly.

it is extremely common for people to use LSD to overcome issues in their lives, look into that

This. It'll be fun, but you'll keep thinking "dude, seeing ____ right now would be awesome! Or how about I call so-and-so!!"
But yeah, I started using once a month about a year ago and I've gone from a fairly quiet kid to someone who can talk and hold conversations with strangers. Life is so much better once you know you are capable as a person of being that happy (and I'm not talking going out and eating drugs all the time, it's affect my sober life positively).
