MDMA tired

So I have taken MDMA twice now. Both times I have felt so tired that I am unable to stand. Then, I lie down and doze off to a deep sleep for at least an hour. My husband and I were trying out the vial of powder he got (from as reputable as a substance supplier can be) carefully measured, and put into capsules. He's about 200# (6’3”, lean, muscular). I am 140#, 5’7”, also lean and muscular. We both take Adderall for ADHD. The first time, I thought hmm thats funny. That should not be. We were at home playing some EDM and using one of those party lights that can sync with your music. I mean I felt good, seeing some cool things and whatnot. Then, zzzzzzzzz. The second time we were at a festival. Same. I had to go back to the hotel and sleep for 2 hours.

Before you say it, it's not a purity issue. He and everyone else dance and feel amazing. And the person we purchased from is a frequent connoisseur.

Too high? Too low? I ain't the one? What is going on?
 
Same the exact happens to me when I take MDMA.. i dont get stimulated at all I really get couchlocked and music sounds amazing and it doesnt make me especially sociable. It's always had this effect on me since I've tried it and I've had several batches/pills of MDMA. Also when I hit the bed I fall asleep almost instantly. I notice some people react this way to MDMA but not everyone. Also to note that the more I take the more sedated I get so it could be a matter of possibly too high of a dose

do you take the adderall on the same day as the MDMA? how often do you take breaks from adderall?

We can't really say because you didn't provide a dose.

A few things. IME, relaxation without stimulation is generally a sign of quality MDMA. Quality MDMA, while it typically does not make me "tired", I can feel so relaxed that I just wake up wondering if I wasted the roll. Nah ;D I also notice that ROA makes a small difference. Boofing is the most relaxing/sedating, and snorting is more "jittery" i guess. Oral is the middle.

On the few occasions that I have been dead tired and taken MDMA in the hopes of gaining some energy I too get so tired I will leave a show and head back to camp. There is speedier" MDMA out there, that some people actually prefer. I don't know if there are other added amphetamines or impurities that cause this but I have had it.

You probably wouldn't want to adjust your dose upwards, but rather downwards if you're not liking this effect.. At your bodyweight, 100-140mg would have most people rolling. I'm not sure of gender differences. But this is what AI says:


"Potential Gender Differences in MDMA Effects:
  • Intensified Subjective Effects: Women may report experiencing more intense psychoactive effects from MDMA, including increased perceptual changes, thought disturbances, and fear of loss of body control. Studies suggest a correlation between MDMA dose and the intensity of perceptual changes, especially in women.
  • Increased Susceptibility to Serotonin Release: Some research suggests that women might be more susceptible to the effects of MDMA on the release of serotonin (5-HT). This increased sensitivity to serotonin-releasing effects could contribute to the more intense subjective and adverse effects observed in women.
  • Adverse Effects: Women may be more prone to experiencing acute adverse effects and lingering effects after using MDMA.
  • Physiological Responses: Men might show higher increases in blood pressure compared to women after taking MDMA.
  • Hormonal Influence: There is some evidence to suggest that estrogen, a female hormone, might play a role in how the body reacts to MDMA, potentially increasing the risk of certain conditions like hyponatremia (a dangerous condition involving water retention and possible brain swelling). Individuals on hormone treatments should consider adjusting their MDMA use accordingly and seek further information on potential risks related to hormones. "

Generally, people who take adderal/other amphetamines daily don't get quite as intense effects at the same dose. Someone else back me up on that?

Lastly, we all have different genetics and brain chemistry which probably fluctuates even within individuals, so some people, sometimes, just react different to a drug.

Probably something to do with your regular amphetamine use and having acquired a tolerance to the stimulant aspect of MDMA. Plus your individual neurochemistry maybe does react to all the serotonin more and feel sleepy. I mean fuck yeah it's great to sink into some soft furnishings when you're pilled up. Especially if you're smoking weed too.

I totally get it. Mixing meth, MDMA and weed had me rushing so hard I'd be sat down in the club major euphoric brain supernova eyes rolling in the back of my skull as I bathed in sonic sunshine...not moving though. Just enjoying the glow of warm psychic energy.

Just my speculation though. Could try lower dose and see how you feel as suggested above.
