    Welcome Guest!

How heavy/long was your "abuse period" of E use?

Well I'm nowhere near some of the people in this thread, but this month I've rolled 3 times and am feeling like I'm somewhat dependent, so I plan on taking the next two or three months off.

When I get to the point where I feel like I can't have a good time sober, that's when I decide I need to re-connect with the actual activity itself (whether it be music, etc.) and why it is fun by itself.

If I can't have fun sober, I've reached a new low.

Your still treading in pretty dangerous territory IMO. The long term effects of mdma on the body and brain are still unknown. I think it's better to play it safe and use mdma at most once a month. This seems to be the most a person can use mdma while still considering his/her use "safe"(at least here at Bluelight). However, you shouldn't assume you're one of those people, but I think we, being a public site for anyone to visit, have to have some accpeted standard for the sake of those who come to bluelight. Not everyone knows what some of us here do.


I know that what I'm doing to my brain is not good at all but I'm doing my best to slow down:\
 
I never really had one. My worst usage period was over the course of 3 weeks I went out 3 times and took 4, 5, 4. That was for a birthday/Christmasn/NYE holiday period and I'd not taken anything for 3 months before and didn't take anything for 3 months afterwards (due to being away in college).

Some of you really need to evaluate your usage. 300 pills in 3 months? I've not done 300 pills in my life and I started doing them 7 years ago.
 
i wish someone told me back in the day that taking e every weekend is a bad idea, i obviously know now, but back in my abuse period i had no clue.

i hate the fact that e seems so harmless in the early days but you get to a point where it really messes with your head the following days (after using).

e has effected me mentally, and although i say people should try it once at least, NO ONE should abuse it. behind the happy image e has a real dark side, there's no doubt about it.
 
summmer of 06 droping 2-3 times a week with strong pills for a good 3 months then every weekend atleast untill 6 months ago and since then ive rolled four or five time with atleast 3 pills and the last time 3 months ago at EDC electric daisy carnival took 7 potent pills threwout the niteeee ahh. IDK how many times it adds up but it sure isnt good for me now anxiety and slight bipolarness are sideeffects i have now.
 
Hellooo yes the article I read this positive news on mdma was by a doctor, it should still be on the Erowid site. He explains his findings and his arguments about increases in mental capabilities. Its just one guys opinions but it made me glad to know that mdma doesn't really harm us. Yea but I don't think dropping often is the way to go. Have a good time and be safe Purplefirefly and others (including me =D )
 
wowww is all i can say for some of this abuse. Just out of curiosity, for those of u who abused ecstasy weekly or more for a long period of time, did u even roll when u took ur pills? Did u even feel the empathy, euphoria, lovey feeling, etc? Or did u just get a body buzz? Did u guys work at that time?? I just dont understand how can someone roll that often without having time to even replenish their serotonin and still roll 2 days after and still be able to function during the week
 
Yea I love everybody hehehe so everyone spread the peace and I promote safe useage blah blha :). But definitly rolling too often decreases the amount of magic involved. Yet for me at least I could roll hard even with 1 weeks break. Having said all this, I am taking a nice break right now and I want to go for a few months without. Whew its going to be hard to hold off on my birthday in a few weeks though. I need to gather some energy force to syntrifically control my inner being. Basically I guess I just have to overcome my will to join the dark side bwhahaah. Its been real, peace and love.

Haha. So you also noticed she always says be safe.

I do want people to be safe and take care of themselves. Firstly, things you do now in your life can effect you much later on, the long term effects of mdma are unknown. Abusing the drug now could potentially cause some significant problems in your life later on.

Secondly, if ALL people acted safely and responsibly maybe there wouldn't be as much negative media attention. Don't give the media more ammo to bash the drug scene and make it look like all drug users are junkie losers who rob old ladies to get their fix. ;)


Edit: I take harm reduction extremely seriously and I REALLY hope that the comments that are being made about my "be safe" comments aren't just to mock me.
 
I dropped every weekend for a year. Between 1-2 pills each time. Then the year after, i dropped every other weekend, 1-2 pills each time.
 
my abusive period was a approximately 1 .5 years
every week
1-2 times a week
and 2-5 pills
damn we'd pop at each others house like 10 of house and party all night
and every month the occasional rave
 
that was from 2001 to 2002, there were months when my best friend and me dropped daily, sometimes 15 pills in a night... took years to recover, and i`m sure i wont ever be the same person again i was before... but i dont regret the time.
 
From 1985 to present day probably totaling somewhere between 2500-3000 pills total. The worst binging period lasted for roughly 10 years of 5-10 pills/powder per week. I constantly beat it up without ever regaining all of my seretonin back. Friday night 4 pills and then again on Wednesday with another 4-5 pills. This same routine repeated itself over and over and over for years upon years. The majic is long gone for me now and regardless of the duration of abstinence, it will never come back. I can take 2-3 pills of pure MDMA nowdays and feel good for approx. 10 minutes before becoming totally retarded. My advice; take very long breaks between sessions. I would recommend 3-4 months. The majic DOES disappear, it's a fact! I have little to no shorterm memory, depression, anxiety, and at times, difficulty pronouncing sentences. Again, I can't stress this enough, once the honeymoon stage is over, it's time to quit. No good will ever come from continuing down a beaten path. Enjoy the moment, savor it, because a time will come when your body becomes resistant. When this happens, it's over. Continued use at this point will only cause pain, remorse, and bodily damage.

Party on............. Le Junk
 
Mine was probably for 2 years starting in '94. Pretty much every weekend with 1-2 pills a weekend. At the end of that period, I had some brain zaps and a period of depression. Those went away within a month and I then had a 4 year period of only doing it minimally. Maybe once or twice a year...if that.
