I have just been reading about the devastating condition of Anhedonia caused by MDMA/SSRIs which has forced me to revaluate the risk level of various drugs.
I was aware that MDMA is neurotoxic, and that if using it then a space of apx 3 months is required for the serotonin system to rebalance. I thought if used sparingly a few times a year, then adverse effects would be rare. However anhedonia is a living nightmare, just horrific, and it seems that it’s not uncommon.
My MD usage is about once every 3 months, but I do binge at festivals which I hit 3 times each summer (i.e. 9 days heavy usage within 3 months).
Coke by comparison is not neurotoxic. I am aware it is cardiotoxic however I think it is likely that the body can repair this type of damage, whereas anhedonia can last years or be permanent. So cocaine, with the correct usage protocol (admittedly requiring a willpower of steel) will not lead to long term brain or other damage?
So with my MD now in the trash, I am currently looking at nootropics for a relatively safe high, mostly pro social, that I can safely take at least once per week. Any suggestions?
