I recently did mdma this weekend two days in a row normally I wouldn't do this since I've only done this drug a few times but since it was my birthday weekend I figured why not. The first night on mdma I felt fine the normal amazing time the second night I drank prior to taking it plus I took more than I ever took before. when it first hit me I felt fine really hyper dancing everywhere but I kept thinking I took to much and all of sudden I felt really sick and nervous I got REALLY hot then i would get chills and have goose bumps everywhere my heart was racing, breathing heavily, digging into my skin with my nails, pulling my hair and a strong urge to puke but couldn't. I had to be held down by my boyfriend while he put cold water on my face he had to keep telling me I'd be ok or i'd freak out again i remember repeating everything he said this went on for maybe an hour laid out on the bathroom floor I was unsure of my surrounding and had no control of my emotions or what was going on. alot happened in that bathroom that can't put in words luckily i had my boyfriend there he was able to calm me down enough to leave out & eventually I felt completely fine and walked out like my freak out never happened. I didn't feel like I was rolling hard anymore but I could still feel it I didn't get scared again until the next day I have no idea where this random panic attack came from This was my worst experience with mdma. it really has me scared to ever do it again worried that it might happen again. since i woke up from that night i feel sick on edge depressed feeling like im going to have another episode. I'm scared the panic attacks wont go away. did i overdose? will I ever feel better? can anyone explain this or has this happened to you
 
MDMA triggered panic attack in you. Some people are stronger some are weaker, there is so many factors. Its all in your head - if you think its gona happen, it might..
I dont think you overdosed. U WILL BETTER, thats for sure.

I dont want to mention about "not pure" MDMA. Test your stuff. Just sudden panic attack - yes it happens. Just dont think about it, esle you get paranoid. U are now scared because - you had your first panic attack. But panic attacks dont kill - they are fake ;)
 
Just want to say thank you for responding I was scared no one would but Yeah my mdma was tested my boyfriend wouldn't give me cut stuff. So if I would have stayed calm I most likely wouldn't have panicked? I like to do my occasional party drug but not sure if my mind can handle it. would it be in my best interest to stay away from it? but your response has made me feel a little better, thanks.

Its hard to not panic, when you are having it first time. U must decide if you can handle it.The less your roll, the better you feel. How often did you take MDMA?

I've only did it three times but three times in one month. first time was the first week of march and second and third this weekend. Did I just do it to much and my brain couldn't handle it. Yeah normally I only take a little but I was drunk and asked for more If I ever decided to roll again deff going to take less
 
How are you sure this is MDMA? Adulterants like piperazines would be much more likely to cause such a reaction, and in this day and age where MDMA is an extreme rarity (in the US, at least), that would likely be the first cause to blame.


Test kits to tell if your pills are nasty toxic drugs which will make you feel HORRIBLE for hours on end, or the amazing Love Drug that feels like a 5 hour orgasm, can be found in my signature.




Although we can't say for sure, and since substance speculation is not allowed anyways, I'm not going to try and tell you what you took.. but do note that there is a VERY high chance what you took was not MDMA, and that's why you had a bad reaction.
 
I don't know maybe but my boyfriend said he tested it and never seen anyone act the way I acted. But I do thank you for this information I don't feel like I'm going to go crazy anymore lol
 
Tested how? By taking the pill beforehand? No offense, but unless he has taken Lab Reference samples of every known drug (MDMA, methylone, MDPV, mephedrone, 4-FA, 4-FMA, a-pvp, etc, etc..) I really cannot trust his stomach determining the contents of a pill... and neither should you :\


That is not to say what you took could NOT be MDMA, but I think it is EXTREMELY unlikely that it is. I've had similar reactions to TFMPP in the past, which is a VERY nasty and awful drug in every way.





Do you know what pill you took? Looking it up on pillreports.com or ecstasydata.org may tell you the contents... but from now on be sure to reagent test or at the very least look at reports on PR to make sure the pill you are taking is MDMA.

You'll be fine though... don't worry :) All things correct themselves in time, and this will be no different. You may want to stop in the MDMA comedown support thread to read some other's testimonies on how they overcame similar problems.
 
You see I wasn't there when it was bought My boyfriend bought it from his friend and told him it was tested and legit first two times I took his stuff everything was fine I'm just confused why the third time caused such a big effect and to be honest I really know nothing about drugs or how mdma is supposed to really look.all I know it was in a clear capsule and looked like crystals in it I poured it in my mouth and you know the rest lol maybe it wasn't real or maybe I just got to nervous while on it. & I have been I've been researching all night
 
I don't mean this in an offensive way at all and I get the whole ''get your pills tested'' thing but I don't think it should be presented as the possible solution to all your MDMA problems in every thread. She said her boyfriend tested it so I'm assuming he's telling the truth and it is legit MDMA. In which case, OP, you have now learned from your mistake to take MDMA two days in a row in high doses. It's an amphetamine, so it definitely has the potential to cause panic attacks and make you nervous and anxious when abused. It was probably a combination of your brain being tired of all the action, genetics and the alcohol you drank that night. You learned the hard way, the next time you roll space them out (at least 2 months) and don't take over 200mg and you'll be happy as ever running around the place and hugging people again. Good luck!

Thanks and that makes since I'm thankful for the advice from both of yall. I'll be more careful
 
My personal rule is to never take MDMA unless I test it myself. I wouldn't care if my own mother said she tested it and it's legit. I've had people tell me they tested MDMA and they very well may have but, I've noticed that a lot of people just don't know how to properly test or interpret the color changes.
 
You just did too much. Your brain was probably fried since you rolled the night prior. Also, you said you were drinking? Alcohol dehydrates you and makes your body overheat. Ecstasy also dehydrates and overheats your body. So the combination of those two drugs PLUS dancing and sweating like crazy will make you extremely dehydrated and hot. The feeling of being overheated and your heart pounding like crazy scared you and sent you into a panic attack (which is mental). You really just needed to drink water, sit down, get some fresh air/cool down, and calm down. You probably shouldn't roll for AT LEAST another 2 months. I would actually wait 3 months. Just remember to drink water, take rest breaks when you feel like you're getting hot, and NEVER COMBINE ALCOHOL AND ECSTASY. Very BAD and DANGEROUS combination. :)
 
Like a few people have said it was almost certain the panic attack was from rolling two nights in a row. If I ever had a panic attack on mdma it was from either a high dose or rolling two nights in a row. Since you had probably not much serotonin at all left your body was not reacting to well to trying to release more that wasn't there. Rolling two nights in a row was the dumbest thing I've done, done it probably 7 or 8 times and I guarantee most of the damage was from that.

I wouldn't roll for a good 3 months if I was you or until you felt comfortable doing it. Also weed was another thing that started giving me panic attacks. Weed usually helped me on the comedowns but after a bit it started giving me panic attacks. All the symptoms like heavy and difficult breathing, extreme heartrate, and poor circulation in extremities. Just don't roll more than every few months. i say 3 is the best.
 
What utter nonsense . . .
GAH. I had to search for this stupid reply (and form the quotation marks myself from some reason...):

Alcohol
It is dangerous to combine anything with alcohol that makes you sleepy (see CNS section). This includes opiates/opiods (heroin, morphine, Demerol, Percocet, Oxycontin), barbiturates, benzodiazepines (Xanax, Valium, Ativan) and GHB. It should also be noted that a large percentage of deaths and hospitalizations associated with Ecstasy have usually involved a combination with alcohol.
 
i have gotten panic attacks on weed.. I know its a snow ball effect. I bet if you do the MDMA again you might have another attack. you might want to take some anti anxiety meds just in case this happens again.. I now suffer from anxiety but i started taking vitamins and its been helping. Not sure if its physical or psychological or both. If there is one thing for certain it is that these drugs are so mind altering that just that alone can cause these issues. The only thing i would recommend is taking very small doses just to get past it without issue and work your way up over time. you might want to take a 1/4 of a pill and see how that goes.. and a few months later maybe 1/2 .
 
The mdma did not damage you based on your usage. You just have preexisting anxiety that the drug has stimulated and brought out into awareness. Give it some time, if it doesn't dissipate on its own there are other measures to take such as lifestyle/nutritional changes and/or therapy.
