Hey everyone,

I've used mdma or extacy probably about a dozen times or so over a year and half since I first tried it.

I hadn't popped since July of 2010 and me and a couple friends popped on saturday. I took one gel cap of mdma and then about 3 or 4 hours I took another just over half of a gel cap.

So everything was all fine and well I had a nice time rolling and smoked some weed like I always do.

I slept for about seven hours or so then woke up.

I felt kind of weird the next day as to be expected but it was weird a couple of times my eyes started to cloud over to black so I couldn't really see and then a second later they would clear and I could see normally- it was strange but it was so fast that I wasn't too worried about it I figured my senses were just still kind of wonky.

Anyways me and my bf and my friend went to go smoke a joint and have a smoke. I've always smoked lots of weed the day after rolling it makes me feel so much better.

After I smoked the joint I began to feel really weird and kind of high again (again not surprising smoke weed always kinds of brings back the high on a smaller scale the next day) but I felt pretty out of it we were going to go for lunch but I wanted to just go pick something up and bring it back to my friends house.

Me and my bf and my friend went to go get a sandwich as we were waiting to pay my eyes did the same thing and clouded to black but this time they just stayed black.

It was the most fucked up thing ever!

I told my boyfriend omg I can't see I'm blind right now. He and my friend had to lead me out of the store and I was waving my arms around trying to feel things I had to be led out to the car and I couldn't see anything just blackness. I could feel my eyes moving around and they were open but I couldn't see anything.

My friend told me my eyes were wide open the whole time just staring but not seeing anything.

My bf told me to be calm and just take deep breaths, I was panicking inside of course.

After like 1-2 minutes I began to see the outlines of things and then my vision slowly restored at first everything was cloudy and white-ish but then it went normal.

It was honestly terrifiying I don't know what caused it I've done caps from that same batch before and lots of other ones and smoked weed and never experienced anything like this especially considering it was the day after!

Has anyone experienced anything like this or had a friend who did or something?

I don't know what to do I'm scared to pop again now I've got tickets to the tiesto concert in a couple months and I wanna pop but obviously I don't want to risk experiencing this again or something worse!

I'm going to mention it to my doctor but obvs. he's not going to get the whole story.

If anybody has heard about something like this or experienced this or has an comments/recommendations in general please respond!

Thanks,

I've never heard of anyone losing their vision due to MDMA. The brain is a complex beast, and capable of such episodes. The temporary nature of the condition is important, it suggests something related to temporary chemical balance or brain state rather than permanent physical damage to the eye or optic nerve. It's just something you went through. If it happens again, it will be temporary as well. Don't live in fear. But to be safe, I would get a full physical check up when you speak to your doctor. Then get back to the party :)
 
I've experienced something similar but it was with mushrooms. It was a pretty low dose and then later I smoked a joint and I went completely blind...well it wasn't darkness but it was like I was seeing that static that you see on a television when the channel isn't working properly. Didn't last too long maybe like 20-30 seconds but it did freak me out.

So yeah it's hard to say exactly what it is, maybe somebody else will know more :)
 
AH! Someone else has experienced this too! Well when this happened to me it was after my first experience with pills that I believe, but am not positive, were cut with piperazine. I didn't have to smoke weed to make it happen, but for hours after I woke up, and even for a while before I went to bed the night of rolling, I would lose my vision and have it go black like this. I would have to sit down and then after about 30 seconds it would return.

I personally think it was actually a case of malnutrition or dehydration. I had sweat a bunch the night that I rolled without even noticing and not drank more than a cup or two of water. I forced myself to eat a large and healthy meal the next day and drink water, and after about 4 hours I could stand for longer without my vision going away, and then after 6 or so hours I had stopped losing my vision.

This was by far the strangest adverse effect I've ever had from rolling. I rolled again a few months later on cleaner pills, made sure I stayed hydrated, and made sure I had eaten well before rolling, and my experience was much more positive.
 
Ive never heard of this before on MDMA !

This is not a common side effect of the usual recreactional drugs and something that you should get checked out.

You may want to read up on something called retinopathy (cloudy vision linked to blood pressure/kidneys - 'maybe' connected to the drugs)? Notice the '''s and the ? as that is simply a suggestion.
 
I have suffered something very similar. About a month after taking a stupid dose of MDMA I was sitting watchig tv and smoking a spliff and the whole room suddenly dimmed and went a dark dark blue to the point of not being able to see anything. I think it is triggered by weed and paranoia, perhaps a sort of flashback.. I wouldn't worry about it TOO much, stay off drugs and drink and keep your diet healthy. If it persists, go see your doctor.

This happened to me the day after MDMA.... dehydrated, low blood sugar/pressure..... It has been caused by spice and weed.

Although spice made me just flat out pass out.
