Hi, how's it going everyone?

I hadn't consumed any pills/MDMA for almost three years, Untill two weeks ago.
They were the 'Iron cross' pills going around Ireland and only purchased these as they have nothing but great reports from everyone.

I consumed four pills in the evening and it was just how I remember it, although I was at home I still had a good time. I got to sleep with no problems eight hours after first dropping, got around seven hours sleep and felt reasonably ok the next day.
However that evening my throat began to feel like I had an infection and also started getting a headache, I had an early night (10pm) and slept to 8am, when I got up I felt quite ill, my temperature was 38.4 degrees celsius. I took some paracetamol and that helped with the headache/temperature.
I took my son swimming although not feeling like it I was fine once in the water but when I got out I felt really ill again.

That night I had to work some overtime and could barely think properly, I was beyond the point of tired and felt really spaced out.
The next evening (three days after dropping) I was filled with negative thoughts and was honestly scared in my own home, trying to get to sleep was hell, when I closed my eyes my head was filled with the most scary thoughts and the whole night I had nightmares, I was soaking wet with sweat.
In the morning I felt so strange and woke up my partner to tell her what was happening. Getting ready for work I didn't want to be in the house on my own and asked my girlfriend to wait with me until I was leaving for work.

Do you think this is related to the MDMA or did I simply pick up a bug/virus, I didn't feel normal until Friday (Seven days after dropping) which sounds like I picked something up and it is coincidence that I used MDMA.
I had used MDMA and a lot of other substances regularly for 3 years previous to my break and never experienced anything like this.
 
I honestly think its both - an MDMA comedown and probably a bug (temperature/sore throat etc)

When you think those 'Iron Crosses' are known to be pretty strong and popping four in 8 hours is quite a bit (considering zero tolerance). I know its really easy to say, I never felt like that before and that is probably because you were used to taking pills at the weekend and expected to feel rough/spaced out for a few days.

Comedowns can be a bitch (especially if you have to function properly during them) – I’m just wondering was your break because of your son? Last time you used were you a parent? I'm just wondering if maybe your comedown was worse because you were thinking about the 'what ifs' with your son being with you at the time.

(Please don’t think I'm having a go about you being a parent as I’m not – I’m just curious.)
 
Well if you consumed four Iron Crosses in 8 hours I am surprised you were able to sleep at all. They are supposed to be strong pills , was there a reason you had 4? did you not find them strong ?
 
What Bearlove said....

I would bet you picked up a cold bug somewhere and unfortunatly it decided to kick in after you rolled. all the other effects you discribed sound typical for taking 4 pills in one night and what happen the few days afterwards.

I used to take MDMA around once a month, and yes, I wasn't a father when I was doing that.
I started with one pill as I thought I would have zero tolerance and it would be strong enough but I was wrong (I think this was massively effected by the fact I was at home and no one else was on it)
After an hour I took three more as it wasn't how I'd expected. That hit the spot and I was feeling great for the next 3 hours until it tapered off and I went to sleep.

It was more than just a comedown, I spoke to my dad and he had the same thing (Minus the MDMA use) he said it's a bug that's going around at the minute.
I have quite a lot of these pills and will be trying again in a different setting next month.
 
For anyone interested or finding this thread in the future, I tried the same MDMA again last weekend and had none of the negative effects I had last time.
I've put it down to coincidently picking up a bug the weekend I rolled.
