my come down nightmare and using xanax. NEED HELP HERE.....

no, I tested it. I just think it was very very strong. Ive been partaking for about a year now and in 25. My other symptoms are that depersonalization thing, i feel like I have trouble reading things correctly(reading comprehension?) and i feel like my creativity/problem solving skills are to shit (could just be psyching my self out and having just clouded thoughts) and my sleep is just atrocious. I also have a terrible lack of energy.
 
Do you know how much you took?

The depersonalization is not nice I had it for a while. I have pretty much all the symptoms you have.

So youve been like this for four weeks now?

The best thing really is exercise thats the thing that seems to releive most of it. I am like you however I have a lacl of motivation so often actually exercising is difficult its frustrating cause I used to do two hours a day in the gym before this nightmare started.
 
I also redosed and rolled 2 nights back to back a gram about over the weekend. to add a little more info to this. I think the second night was the reason this happened to me.
 
No this is like 8 weeks now. About 5-6 weeks I was talking xanax every day .25mg once a day to get by. Not much but it actually helped the anxiety.
 
Oh yeah. How can I forget. I did k that night. Was that the dumb part? I wanna say no. I think it was just the redosing. Just mush and L as well. But not a often. Only my last year have messed with any drugs. Cept weed. that I always did. I just started MDMA January of 2012.
 
1gm is quite a dose but you have still been quite unlucky to have triggered a longterm comedown with such a small previous history, age etc.

I assume your smoking weed at the moment.

I saw your supp list it looked very comprehensive

Are you getting much exercise

How about lifestyle are you still getting out much and socialising etc
 
I've been runner almost everyday. And stopped smoking weed. Can't tell if that helps or not. It seems when I smoke I'm totally physically exhausted the next day. Not sure if that makes sense. Ive been pretty much at home. Sorta lost my job over this whole thing. Haven't really been seeing friends much. A few of them I talk to but Dont go out though
 
The running will definitely definitely help. All people whom i have spoken with report taking weed whilst on longterm comedown is bad news for anxiety, recovery etc.

Yeah I lost my job over all this so I know exactly what page you are on. No I dont go out much either I think the anxiety seems to prevent you from wanting to go out.

All I can say is it will pass. I have recovered from one of these once before just takes a while. The first time I had one I did go out and tried my best to ignore the symptoms it seems this will help a lot if you can bare it.

I think all the supps you are taking is good, exercise is good

Not much drug history, age is on your side so its just going to be a case of patience eventually all the nasty things you are experiencing will go.

Yeah excersizing def helps. I'm just running out of patience and things to keep my self busy with. I get so bored at home and start to worry about shit even more.
 
I wish you luck with it all. Feel free to PM anytime if you wanna chat my current comedown has lasted for about 18 months and I have tried a whole hoost of meds etc so have a bit of experience from it all.

You still taking the Xanax or did you get off it? you wanna try and stop taking that if you can.
 
I think it's seriously essential to stay positive. I know it sounds stupid (trust me I know the feeling) and that it's probably chemical imbalances that are you making you feel this way blah blah blah. But seriously, depression/anxiety might be a lot of it... they go hand in hand and it takes a long time to recover from. I know I have been (sort of) an anxious person my whole life.. thinking about things too hard. You just have to pay attention to your mood and how you feel right now. My mood is fluctuating throughout the days and I am noticing it.

Sometimes I still can feel happy and can laugh, other times I get anxiety for no reason and it just comes... but by remembering the times that you laugh, it really helps and makes the anxiety go away faster.

I am now 5 months into a "long term comedown" and I really do believe it will get better. Sometimes its really hard and it feels like I'm not even changing. But because I KNOW I can still laugh, and I KNOW I can still be myself, I KNOW I can have goals about things (currently want to get good at soccer) even if it is just sometimes... I know my life/happiness can get better.
 
I bought some Focus Factor from GNC today to help with my issues. It's basically the US version of Neurozan. Has a lot of the essentials such as ginkgo biloba, DMAE, essential vitamins, etc. You can look it up. I took one capsule and I felt it helped. Alleviated my mood and helped with cognition. I also tried choline citrate on select occasions and it made me feel a lot better. I tried piracetam once and hated it, but that could just be me. I feel like nootropics can aid in the recovery, just be cautious because you could get over-energized and lose out on much needed sleep.

I'm a little over 2 months into my recovery. Although nootropics help, it is best to remain positive and not think too much about it(which is probably the hardest part), exercise, eat healthy, and come clean with people who are close to you so you can gain some support. Best of luck on your recovery man, it's a long journey but you'll get there

ggarza, so you're in the midst of one of these comedowns as well. Can I ask what your symptoms are?

My symptoms aren't so severe as other users in this thread, considering I've only used twice in my life. I am hopeful that my recovery will be quicker than most. The only type of E that I've done is "molly", but I ended up re-dosing the very next day without knowing what the side effects could be, and I never tested my stuff. Lesson learned. It was enough to negatively affect this sensitive first-timer. Anyway, the first month was filled with pretty extreme depression, lack of motivation, pretty severe anxiety, and pretty damn poor concentration/focus. In the second month, things improved. However, lethargy and slight anxiety & depression still existed enough to affect my performance at school and work. Also tingly sensations in my brain were annoying.

A lot of the healing process comes with acceptance of what you've done and not trying to search for an immediate solution. Then comes the exercise, socializing, healthy eating, and supplementation if necessary. Just try to live as normally as possible and eventually you'll get yourself back to normal. I'm positive I can come back. A lot of my worser symptoms are fading and I can feel it. I still need more time though.
 
You just have to wait until it wears off. Just think of it as an alcohol hangover, it'll eventually go away. I took 800MG over 4 days and it took me about a week before I could actually sit down for an hour or so without getting up and pacing, going for a walk, or going into a panic. Mine lasted 24/7 the first 3-4 days, then after that they would be like 5-6 hours then I would feel good. Right now I'm still having bad panic attacks and some other stuff that's bothering me, and it's been 3 weeks. I ended up throwing the Xanax I had away, had like 5 pills. You shouldn't take the Xanax so you can feel yourself getting better, you'll never know if you're taking the Xanax because that messes everything up.
 
Ive actually stopped taking xanax cold turkey. (been on it for about 6 weeks actually) Ive been on a very low dose .25mg and have not had any panic attack since I stopped taking them. I decided I need to get through this without the drugs. Thankfully I feel no withdrawal symptoms.

Good move on axing the Xanax. With all the benzo family there only supposed to be used for short term relief of anxiety symptoms.

Nothing more.

Max allowed dose I beleive is approximately 3 weeks of constant use. Anything more can lead to serious dependance issues.

I have never heard of any benzo acting as a cure they are purely a short term mask.

It was benzos that totally fucked up my sleep patterns I hardley sleep at all these days. The MDMA overdose fucked my sleep up and the benzos pretty much obliterated it.

Avoid them if you can in my opinion very dangerous over long term use.

Unfortunately there are a large number of dumb fuck doctors who will prescribe them for months even years.
 
I once had anxieties that made me feel sad, depressed, and overall really scared of everything.
It sucks. It will pass. It will pass sooner with excersize and good food. It also passes quicker if you try to not think about it.. try to do something that occupies your mind.. smoke a joint with a friend, get some nicotine, i dont know.. but it WILL pass
You just gotta think it will pass, you will be OK.. it might take a little time.. but you will bounce back no doubt
I mean, what do you expect, you deplenish your brain of the chemicals that protect you from anxious thoughts...
Ofc you will feel like ur gonna be depressed forever because you got anxiety.. Just stay strong and KNOW that ur brain will find its way back home

Taking over 300mg in a 24 hour period is just putting you at severe risk. Many kids these days think that you need 0.5 or 1.0 grams of Molly to get high, when you really need a tenth of that...

Be very careful, I don't know how you've dosed "mdma" before, but when it's pure MDMA, you won't need more than 100mg to get to a good safe place.

Speak for yourself, 100mg is enough to get a buzz.. .5 in a night is a decent amount
