What would make you stop taking ecstasy?

Strawberry_lovemuffin said:


Yes, despite the fact I will probably die of lung cancer =D

Would you still die of lung cancer, if you got pregnant??

I know a girl, who smoked occassionally when pregnant, she had some extremly stressful times during her pregnancy, and although i didn't believe in what she was doing, i could understand her need for the occasional cigarette.
Yet when she had her baby, she started smoking again!!
I didn't understand it, as she had pretty much quit and was bringing a kid into the world.....oh well, there wasn't much i could do.
 
SLM of course I would... having a family means u have to look after yourself for you childs sake and not taking drugs is healthier than taking drugs therefore yes... I am planning on having children in a long time so should be over the whole drug thing by then.
 
Yeah, the way haste explained it is the way I meant it... sorry, I was going to expand on what I said to make it clearer but I couldn't find the right words to get what I meant across without confusing it even more...

But yeah, while I realise that it's not directly comparable and that smoking won't cause brain damage like MDMA might, it's still interesting. I was just wondering where the line was for people between acceptable and unacceptable physical damage from substances.
 
As plazma said and a quote from Koop in human traffic:

"When the bad times outweigh the good times you know the party's over"

that and feeling like aboslute shit for the next week hence why I've stopped taking chems for a very long time.
 
1) if i had someone special to me ask me to stop, not just to stop cause of some shit reason but cause she wanted me to 4 me and her sake

2) getting caught again

3) medical reasons

4) to test my own self will

just had 6 months off and the come back to it wasnt as gr8 as i remember it all to be. maybe im liking my life again without it
 
If it were still applicable (I haven't taken ecstasy for about 18 months)..

1. Pregnancy

2. Significantly horrible experience while under the influence of it (trial and error?)

3. Death of a close friend or relative as a result of it (even only out of respect for that person)

4. If it wasn't fun anymore. Although having said that, I know I've continued to drink alcohol after it wasn't fun anymore, and I'm not an alcoholic.

There are probably other reasons. Will think.
 
Lack of quaility!
or when ur girlfriend thinks your more that a wacky crazed raver!

but mostly,the come down.
Havnt thought of long term repocutions(sp?) manly cause i think ive taken the proper steps now and then for them not to effect me too much when im older.*shrugs shoulders*

i have to say though.My eye sight hasnt faired well after it all.

No im not being nieve(sp?) i just think mull,alcohole and ciggies will fuck u up harder in the long run.
:)
 
When Planet Earth runs out of precursors. :)

I personally assume that one day I'll just get sick of it and it won't be such a big part of my life. The comedowns are already getting quite heavy but I'm a sucker for punishment so that's not a strong deterrent.

Proof of irreversible brain damage.
If the government started executing people for having it.
Deciding to grow up and start real life for good.
If it became more important than my friends and family.
If they start putting explosive devices in random pills.

If I became dependent on it to have a good time, I'd take a long break again.

Lots of stuff I guess... I sincerely hope that nothing will make me stop, rather that I'll decide one day it's not worth doing so much.

Okay... in my case, I have made a promise to myself, as soon as I start my family, I am officially a non-smoker. Forever. I am almost looking forward to it as an excuse to save myself .... I know that sounds weak and immature, but that's how it is.

I have very strong views on how I'll bring up my kids, and living in a household with smokers isn't one of them. Big promise hey... I hope I'm strong enough to keep it.

I don't know about the other drugs, later down the track... if it's unobtrusive, maybe... I guess I'll jump that hurdle when I come to it.
 
Theres alot of people saying that if they had children would 100% give up drugs...im not too sure they would as its all quite hypothetical...or maybe they would and i really am irresponsible :\ *sigh*

i didnt even get into the 'drug scene' till about a year or two ago, i didn't. I've only started taking xtc in the last year and i have an 8 yr old son....it's never in the house...i never pill when he's around...i never have a come down when he's around and its an occasional thing i do some weekends when he is spending time with his father.

It's my little release... i go out to dance...spend some time with friends and get off my chops 8)

I wonder how all of you that said you would give up pills once you had a family would feel the same about alcohol....would you take your kids to a party where they were serving it? would you still drink alcohol on a night out while u had a night to yourselves and your kids are getting babysat? It's still fucking you up....as socially acceptable as it is...then again your answers are still only going to be 'hypothetical' yeah? *shrugs*

I suppose the above paragraph also ties in with 'alchohol is evil thread'

I've been getting heaps paranoid about the fact that i am a mother and i do drugs esp from my BL parents thread when the only parents that replied saidthey dont do drugs at all so i feel a little alone in the matter but i have thought it over and i've decided that i know what im doing and thats that :)

and i suppose that should have gone in my bl parents thread but it all ties into this one post seeing as everyone is talking about having kids and stopping all drug use

I had my son when i was 16 yrs old...i was a baby...i'm still growing up and only starting to have a decent social life now (and no i dont mean its decent just cos drugs are involved) so i'm only just starting to live life now...I'm 25 and i have an 8 yr old...whats a girl to do aye? (if u think the answer is simple think again and just TRY and picture yoursel in my shoes) :)

I would stop taking pills for good if

1) i was pregnant (i would not want to do my unborn child damage)

2) someone close to me dis from it

3) i wasnt getting anything out of it anymore :|
 
^^ If you read my posts I never said I would give up pills after my kids were a certain age.... only during pregnancy and probably during the first year or so afterwards.

I have no problem with what you're doing... smoking is a different story as you are exposing your children to 2nd hand smoke (unless you consistently smoke outside). I honestly don't think responsible, occasional use of party drugs harms a child's upbringing, as long as appropriate measures are taken. I think you've read our responses the wrong way. No-one here is judging you.

hugs, SLM xxxxxx :) :) :)
 
1. If It resulted in my death.

edit: fuck you, opera
sorry, hit control enter before i finished and it decided to post

I dont use any drug often enough to ever become dependant on them, and at this rate, the pills in low quantities seem just as good as they ever were
 
Re: Intriguing...

My reasons are as follows.

1) If I got pregnant (unlikely)
2) If I felt I had nothing further to learn or enjoy from the substance, which is a point that I very nearly reached.
3) When the bad times outweigh the good. (Though I think that definately applies to all substances, not just MDMA)
4) If MDMA ever came before life in my list of priorities.

-plaz out-

i agree with plaz's reasons. my boyfriend and i haven't taken mdxx for almost a year now - i just don't feel like doing it and i don't really miss it either (think my bf is the same). i had kind of been going off it for a while and then the last couple of times weren't that great. i didn't make a conscious choice that the final time would be the last - it just was. i haven't made a final decision about never taking mdxx again (i loathe people who claim to be doing something, talk about it a lot to everyone and then go back on what they said) as i never like to say never, but i haven't found anything to convince me to do it again recently....
bk:)
 
- Pregnancy

- Sumone close to me dying from an xtc related death

- Being Broke

- (i would say being put in hospital from a drug related xperience, but unfortunatly that wasnt enough to stop me :( )
 
well.. i quit smoking when i had md, so reasons would be:
1. i die or sumthing serious happens to me
2. my parents find out (which would lead to answer 1=D )
3. find sumthing better;)
4. no money
5. live happily ever after excuse

btw im pretty sure the twitch i got on one eye lid is from pills and it hasnt stopped me
 
1. Pregnancy

2. Having someone close I know die from the drug

3. If my partner didn't like it and if I REALLY liked him enough I'd stop

4. Something bad happening to me and putting me in hospital

5. If my mate kept getting caps :) They are betta!

6. If I didn't have enough money - well DER I couldn't buy them

:D :D :D

Although in relation to number 6, I'd probably borrow money the pay them back muahahah ;)
 
after reading the neurotoxicity related 'how your brain works on ecstasy' years ago i reassessed my mdma use.

also tollerance and no longer gaining anything from using it.
 
to the poster that said

"if it gets you high assume it is doing damage" i strongly disagree with.

or perhaps maybe "damage" is the issue. i only see long-term permanent life affecting damage as relevant.

a beer will get my high, possibly cause some low level of toxicity but it definetely wont cos me long-lasting permanent damage so i dont see that as a problem, same with quite a few other drugs...
 
when you start having more anxiety attacks, and depression seems to be escalating - a good reason to quit.

plus the penalty of either a stiff jail sentence or death is also a good reason.
