Firstly I'd just like to say I consider myself a novice in terms of rolling, so don't take everything I say as gospel.
I was lucky that my first 3 or 4 rolls (about a year ago up until january), were on real/good mdma crystals. I know it was real, because you just know don't you. Nothing is that good.
But since then, the last few times I've wanted to roll we've struggled. First we got some apparent powder mdma. Did naff all. Literally nothing. Then we got some of that fake pink stuff, which didn't really do much except a little buzz, and couldn't sleep for 48 hours.
This weekend we finally got what we thought was proper mandy. It was all in crystal form, mainly white, with the odd tan coloured crystal. It tasted like I remember md taste like, but nowhere near as strong, and with a subtle numbing effect on the tongue.
Anyway, after bombing 250mg within an hour, I started to come up. Finally felt like the mdma come up I had been looking for. Definetly got the exact mdma energy rush, nice soothing energy as opposed to a 'rushy' effect. Felt happy, however experienced none of the overwhelming "phwoooooaaarrr" feelings.
It also faded much quicker than usual. The happy/confident feeling went after around an hour of kicking in, just leaving the dancing energy you get towards the end of roll.
It seemed it had all the effects, but just not anywhere near as intense as usual. For example jaw clenching was there, but not nearly as harsh as usual. Same goes for eyesight.
Is this a very, very good imitation? Or could it be a 'weaker' mdma crystal? (I always thought mdma is mdma is mdma. And there was no variable "strength" to it). Or could it be real mdma cut with something else?
Cheers, for any help. Slowly starting to learn what not to fall for. I always insist on seeing the stuff before buying now, which is why I thought we'd struck gold with this.
