For some reason when I'm sober or blazed up I'm real quite and not open... But when I pop my cap of MDMA I'm talking to everyone, loud, really open, and do fine with the ladies but otherwise I can't unless drunk :P.

But has anynone had this issue and could anyone who has experienced this maybe explain how they became less anxious and quite without the use of MDMA, and by the way this wasn't caused by MDMA as before I was like this and to a more of a worse degree..

Thanks Alot !
 
Same here Bro!
Don't worry, that's what makes the E so much betterrr for usss likee this:)

gosh, wish we were all local it would be cool to have that empathy and be rollin together
 
I think that is one of my favorite effects of MDMA, the confidence to open up to total strangers and have that feeling of empathy and compassion towards others :)

After I started rolling, I became a more open person, more honest with others and myself. As corny as this sounds, I know many of you out there know exactly what I'm talking about. I think it's important to take those feelings of understanding and empathy beyond the duration of your roll and apply it to daily, sober life.

YEAYUH!
 
I would say increased sociability and ability to 'connect' with other people is the one of the most beautiful aspects of MDMA. It also helps that it feels quite natural (at least to me =)), unlike other substances such as coke and amp.

But also MDMA isn't really good long term solution to reducing social anxiety and such. Maybe if you do it only one time in your life, I think the experience could have a lasting effect on your psyche, but otherwise I think after a while a lot of people become a little more 'used' to the the effects of MDMA.

OP isn't complaining about that effect -- s/he wants to know how to duplicate it in a sober state of mind, which is a very good question. It took me forever to even think about taking the mindstate I was in on MDMA and start figuring out how to apply it to sober life.

Here's how it is for me, maybe it will help you =) You know EXACTLY what to say when you're sober as you do when you're rolling. The difference is that when you're sober you overthink it and obsess about whether it's the right thing to say or not. You reason "better to keep quiet and be thought a fool than to open my mouth and remove all doubt." In this way, you remain silent and not saying anything to others. On MDMA you have confidence and you don't expect that kind of judgment from others -- everything is in a state of perfection and you just say what's on your mind.

The trick is to reprogram your thinking. If you keep believing you can't talk and that what you say people won't like, then it will remain true. You have to change that agreement you've made with yourself.

EDIT: 420th post!! w00t!
 
After using mdma my social skills were greatly improved while sober, I don't think it was the actual mdma maybe the setting I'm in, because I usually roll at raves. And yeah I pretty much got my social skills from talking to people while I'm rolling or not at raves. Then I became this happy go lucky dude that wants to make friends with everyone, and this is while I'm sober.
 
Pick a subject that your really keen on and start from there - most social people will respond and ask you questions and engage in conversation. When having a conversation listen to what they are saying and respond accordingly, if they mention a subject ask questions about it and take it from there.

You already know that your interesting and have the social skills needed all you need now is a bit of self confidence.

Im shocking on MDMA though as I will talk to anyone and everyone :) - I once sat with a homeless lady one night for ages talking about her life, went got us both some drinks and her something to eat and we had a good chit chat :D

I can't stop talking on mephedrone. i think that's the only drug I can think of that would do that to me. MDMA does occasionally, my first roll being one of those (pretty sure they were speedy pills or something -- never tested :( ), but not like mephedrone does.
 
Personally, I was able to get something interesting effects through a somewhat Pavlovian method. I'm a really shy person and I definitely don't open up quickly with those I don't know. But when I'm rolling, I am talking to everyone and feeling SO friendly.

You know how some actors are able to make themselves cry or laugh very genuinely by tricking their bodies? They tense the same muscles, think the same thoughts, etc, as when they were genuinely doing whatever the desired activity is (e.g. making your chin quiver and tensing your stomach to match how your body might react before crying). Well, I noticed I could do this to some extent with MDMA.

Basically, after enough times popping a pill on my way to a social engagement, I noticed certain ways my body felt. I would tense and release my fingers, I would smile a lot, etc. Then I realized that if I was on my way to a party where I wasn't going to be rolling, but I was very excited to go, and I reenacted how I felt during times I was rolling, I would honestly get that same rush. Of course not to the same extent; but definitely a bit of a happy high. Enough so that I would actually be ok in a social situation where I would not have previously been.

It's not some magic cure...but it's something a little out there that works for me.
 
Just be glad you can find good e. I've taken it 3 different times, and not once did I get any effects normally associated with MDMA.
 
MDMA eliminates all the walls we've built to protect ourselves.

I feel thar When you're on MDMA you are the truest form of yourself.

I totally agree with this.

I always felt that MDMA didn't create these feelings within me, but that they were there all along. We don't show them to people for fear of rejection, being hurt, and such.

When you're on E all those walls and defenses come down and you're free to truly be yourself. It's such an incredible feeling, being out from behind The Wall!
 
MDMA definitely brought me out of my 'shell', so to say! That is why I love this substance, the effects are carried into your every day life, unlike cocaine and drugs like that (at least in my personal experience anyways). Not even just the confidence build up but in my experience, just a lot of healing times and profound personal 'revelations' that weren't just temporary but carried into my every day life. I can honestly say that MDMA changed my life. Has helped me begin to heal from things that no counsellor, god, church, etc has ever been able to come even close to. :)
