MDMA vs Methylphenidate comedown

[Nederlander]

Which would you say is worse?
I'd say that while MDMA is worse from a psycholoigical point of view (That drained feeling, lacking the capacity to feel happy), Methylphenidate makes my body feel like shit (Nausea, Gassy feeling, Migraines).

Depends on a lot of factors, eg dose size, how hydrated you kept yourself, supplementation beforehand, etc.

Pure MDMA has virtually no comedown effects on me. I did about 250mg of clean crystal MDMA last night, and when it's not pressed into a pill with other stimulants, it is actually quite lazy and hypnotic and offers a very smooth ride. Today, it's as if I can't even notice that i took anything last night. Methylphenidate for me has a pronounced crash period in which my mind is blank and my body is backfiring, so for me that is much worse.

There's a big difference in the two. Methylphenidate leaves me with an extremely high heart rate, no motivation, a disgusting body stimulation that is uncomfortable once the high ends, I get immense joint pains, etc. MPH is a very dirty drug on the body in my experience.

An MDMA comedown (street pills, not pure) will leave me completely emotionless without motivation to do anything either but I find the comedown is cleaner, there's no overstimulation once it wears off and the afterglow is quite euphoric.

Overall, I think Methylphenidate has a much worse comedown. It was probably the worst comedown I've ever experienced (I had no benzodiazepines on hand so I had to ride the horror roller coaster out).
