I am curious as to whether you people feel there will be a time when x will no longer be a part of your life.
I personally feel that this is a stage for me, something important, but something I will invariably grow out of. let me know.
 
E has always been a rare experience for me. I have tried to limit it to special occasions, but I have rolled now on the last 3 weekends. Of course, it was fucking fun. But I have to cut down, leave it to maybe once a month or special occasions. For one thing, I cannot do any kind of study on a weekend when I pop. And I can't help but be aware that it may affect me in the long term.
I have a friend who goes out pilling on two nights of most weekends. I cannot understand how she does it.
So Im gonna cut down, to maybe once a month or so. For one thing, it will be more fun when I do it, as it will be a rarer, special thing. And it will keep me healthy and happy.
But doing it the last 3 weeks it has been easy to see how you could just do it all the time. Once you go out regularly, there is ALWAYS something good to to to the next weekend. I just gotta learn to say no.

Remember, just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you.
 
Seeing if you can get 'out of the loop' (3 months seems agreed as definition in my circles) every so often (or working on it and then screwing it after a month

) will let you know pretty quickly whats going on and why you're in the whole 'scene' (god i hate that word).
Seems that if ya think you're doing it a bit hard, its a pretty good sign you are...
(Not that i'm planning on missing advent, PVD et al)
 
Simple question requires a simple answer....choose the most appropriate response for you:
a) Stop when you want to because you realise that taking drugs as a substitute/escape from reality no longer has the appeal of the long term solution of confronting and resolving the underriding issues which lead you to drugs in the first place.
b) Stop when you owe your DD too much and can only pay in kind or in body parts.
c) Stop when you wake up one day lying in a gutter nakid with a 'Keep Clear' sign shoved up your ass.
d) Stop when you have taken out several alias's to draw illegal pensions/austudy to pay for your lifestyle - because this taxpaying junky is gonna kick your ass if he finds you

A week and a bit ago I said, hey Mr Lep, that is enough. The thing is I had a FANTASTIC NIGHT! But it fucked me up big time. My memory was to shit. So I decided I am going to to have months break before ANY other drugs, including caffine, which I want to stop permanently! Anyway, I feel great knowing this and I have realised just how crap I felt waiting to go out during the weekend, and having something. Whether it be GHB or E. The thing is, E stuffed me around for about a week, so I would only have a weeks rest, but now I feel really sure that no substance will enter my body, and I feel so good about it I have started doing things like meditation, exercise etc... Now, Drugs are, I think a VITAL part of me, they made me the person I am today, for better and for worse, I think for the better. Now I am going to have a break from it all, and enjoy it more when I return!

I'll still come to meetups for sure! But I won't stay out all night, or take anything, until my break is over!

it's a good question "will you grow out of taking E". Myself personally i'd say yes, but only when i find myself in a different social circle, which might not be for a few years.
Overall i'd say most of us will give up, historically, the closest example might be LSD in the 60s, alot of people took it, but once the scene changed the drug continued to be used by very few, and history will probably repeat itself, most of us will give it up as we leave the social circles of which it is a part (and that will happen as our life and career etc change)
Dunno when i'll give up, surely i will though..... someday......

hey Wookie I have already experianced answer c)....it's not so bad LOL

Thanks for your answers guys, I agree with spanky, if you hold off on the E for a while not only do you get study done, but when it comes time to roll again just the excitement gets you high

I have no plans on stopping in the near future but I do think that my time will come.

I swear that I'm going to stop every Monday or Tuesday when I'm feeling like shit, depressed and grumpy.
I always seem to be ready to pop again by about Thursday though...it's a vicious circle.
I seriously plan to stop about a year or so before I start a family, which for me will be in about 3-4 years.
That's if my brain isn't totally fried before then. It's always a possibility.
 
Took my first E 10 years ago, and like most people at that age thought.'One day I'll grow up and stop'. Partied hard on the drug and still do (but ALOT less frequently!) E is now my special treat I try to use it no more than once a month(though frequently fail!). I've seen many friends over the years become 'e casualties' and the one thing they all had in common was was the inability to say no. Hit it hard for a long time and it ceases to be special and becomes the norm, and lets face it the state MDMA puts us in is pretty amazing and worth keeping special.
I can see myself using this wonderful chemical for as long as I live even if it is only as a once a year 'birthday treat'when I'm in my 60's and 70's.
If you remember less is more and treat it with respect then you and MDMA can have a wonderful lifelong relationship, just ask our good friend Alexander Shulgin
 
What goes up must come down...you boys want to feel like shit a few days later...then get some good coke into you. It is so good at the time, that you get real depressed for a week after it. Still it is fun at the time *snoooooooooort*
 
I took about 6 weeks off from rolling, after many straight nights out. This weekend I went out and had a pill that was very very awesome. But still there are 2 words that describe my feelings at the moment about E: over it.
Yes folks, I have come to the conclusion that (for now at least) XTC does not hold the No. 1 place as my favourite drug anymore! I think that this highly personal decision has come from the fact that I have done way too much of it over the past year, and that having a break made me feel so good.
I will still go back to it, eventually, but for now I'll be partying either straight, and possibly enjoying those experiences more than if I was rolling.
So for those of you who are worried that you'll never want to stop, don't. 3 months ago I was the same. But the time has come that I've realised that a clear mind and clean body are much more enjoyable than any chemical that you use to distort them!
Taking a break from X doesn't mean I won't be munching- there are other drugs to enjoy, although I doubt that the use of them will be all that regular either.
It's all about the balance, personal choice and reason.
 
They can take my pills away from me when the rip them from my cold dead hands goddamnit!!!!

Having spent several nights rolling in comfort, warmth etc... I can see myself popping well into the nursing home. I'm pretty sure there'll be non imposed breaks there, and my consumption will back off while the kiddies are about, but I've got more concerns about the normal stuff we pump into us every time we eat. Insecticides, heavy metals etc... May as well eat something that gets you high as well.
 
To me, drug use, like everything else, is to help you get the most out of life, be it pleasure or self-exploration. Once it loses its marginal utility, either through losing its "magic" or superseded by another, it is time to stop.

I've been thinking about it, and taking drugs wouldn't rate anywhere near my top 10 things to do. (It might sneak into the top 50) Sure it's good wholesome fun, but there are sooo many other things that make me feel a whole lot better/happier. So stopping would not be a major problem for me, I don't feel it is a major part of my life. As to when I would stop. I doubt I ever will. I expect the times I go out and take drugs to diminish, but never will they stop...
 
I was introduced to e and it was love at first sight. I thought there was no way i'ld ever get sick of it, I couldnt understand what I did without it.
I made a BIG mistake and went crazy with e, had it every opportunity there was.... and now ive ruined the point of it.
The whole point of it was to have a 'special' time, but whats so special about being high all the time?
Dont make my mistake and live for e, live on the weekdays not just the weekends.
As you can see im falling out of love with e.
It so sooo sooo true less is more!!!
Now cause of my short memory i forgotton what im writing about

Been doing it for 7 1/2 years now and am almost over it. Still picking up the last few crumbs!
Anyway, pills aren't good like when i first started out. All the local shit and so little MDMA these days has made the scene it is today,,,,,,uncertain. That's why we need testers.
I've had my memorable fun in MASSIVE doses in my early years. Now its just a nibble just to keep up appearances with everyone.
Will hang the boots up from pro league in the not too distant future.
After that, its will be coaching roles and charity events!
outta here....
