I've used ecstasy 2 times in my life. I didn't use it to look cool of just to get fucked up, I used it to just become a better person. And from my experiences I have become a better person. Both times I've done it I did it with all of my best friends. I didn't think us group of friends could possibly become better friends, but it happened. Ecstasy has taught me how much friends really mean and just how much I really care about things. It also taught me not to take things for granted. I think ecstasy is possibly one of the best things a person can do, as long as its USED not ABUSED. How has ecstasy changed your life?
 
I agree with what you had said about it making you a better person and I feel like I am closer to some people, a better communicator, and can understand people better. I am deffinitly a different person since I started using.
I wonder how I would of turned out though, if I had not started taking E. Im sure I would have gotten in alot more shit with law because of drinking and getting in trouble. Im sure I would be getting into alot of fights and wasting my money on the courts that I could have been spending on drugs.

After awhile it seems to make me depressed in a way because you realize that you can't be doing this forever, your going to have to stop someday. You also begin to realize that you have reached your peak of happiness while on E and there is nothing else that could make you feel better than that. This would have to be one of my negative thoughts about ever starting. But overall the positive excedes the negative and I'm glad that I had a chance to experience this.
 
it's actually changed the whole way I see life... And how I see other people. I use to be REALLY REALLY loud and out spoken, it was my way of getting attention. But i realised you don't need to be like that for people to notice you... And I stopped caring what people thought as much... And I think i've changed for the better... But I'd say I've abused it. I'm not denying that.
 
I don't know what a "better person" means. Drugs can change your outlook on life, like all experiences. They can make your outlook better or worse. Personally, apart from some bad high-school marks, drugs haven't changed me.
 
Splendid thread mega!

Ecstasy definately opened me up in a positive way. I became less focused on my more primitive urges, as I would call them, and more about what I really wanted to accomplish with my life. In other words I became less worried about my appearance and sex and more concerned with my life.

I had used psychedelics before my first mdma venture but since I used mdma I became more aware of the drugs I put into my body.

I have not used ecstasy for quite some time now...about a year it has been... not because I don't want to or because I have lost the magic, but the amount of shite in pills these days...meth, caffeine and even DIPHENHYDRAMINE (benedryl) I mean you just never know.

Abusing mdma changed my life for the best. I had to hit rock bottom before i could start improving my life. Took too much e in too short a time frame and got depressed as hell for a few weeks. That gave me the motivation to sort my shit out, now i'm no longer anerexic, employed, have friends and generally have a much more positive outlook on life.
 
I'd say so, I found myself much less insecure after my first couple experiences, and I found that I took on day to day issues with a greater light of apparant self honesty, yet this only holds slightly true to this day, things change I suppose, and its been awhile since Ive had an expanding experience.
 
its in some ways changed how naturally warm i am
it was the first time i really became huggy wiv my friends and that, and made me tell them all kindsa shit i wudnt have shared otherwise - it does that every time i take it, so its helped me know who i can and cant trust ;)
i have continued to be a warmer person since, tho i have realised lately that i feel depressed for awhile for the next few days in a way it didnt used to
 
the only thing it has changed in my life is I have a supply of 5htp and vicks. as far as mentally, maybe a lil, it helps you see things in a positive light, nothing shrooms/trips cant do, and those changes are far more drastic
 
[Note: 'Ecstacy' USE (~once a month) can be ALOT different than 'Ecstacy' ABUSE (~multiple times a month to once a week)
AND then there's the multiple times a week shit
im not saying i haven't done it before (and had enjoyable experiences a couple times at that] but i never had a real decent roll (strength/length) when dropping multiple time a week]

but ok. since first using 'ecstacy' (fall '03) i have had some life changing experiences. some i realized while i was actually rolling, but some i recognized during some good 'afterglows.' Some of these realizations were positive and some were negative. 'Ecstacy' has had major impact on my personality. I used to be very quiet, but have been significantly more 'animated' (idk if thats even the word---i xannies'll get ya) since i first dropped) i have always been pretty quiet and thats maybe because i'm pretty nonconfrontational and have always loved to keep to myself----think: Legos). My appreciatoin for music is alot more significant since i first starting using 'ecstacy.' my appreciation for one another (humans) has also increased without a doubt

idk though
'ecstacy' is the greatest drug in the world
i cant speak for lsd (cause i refuse to touch it), but i think nothing can top some good rolls
but its also increased some emotional problems i already had
but like i noted at the beginning
there is a differnece between USE and ABUSE
i would abuse on the regular
not tons and tons of pills liike these UK cats roll with
but enough to me (IMO too much is when you've basically OD'd and get really nauseaus---3.5 would probably have been better than 4 last night)
i've popped 5 max in one night
idk.theres more i have to say,but them bars are killin me
 
I tend to be anti-social and not very self-confident and very self conscious most of the time. A lot of that goes away while on MDMA, and my successes in dealing with people in that state have built up a bit of confidence to deal with them better when I'm sober. It's not an overnight change, but it's definately progressing.
 
I used a low dose of E to decrease anxiety during a job interview and got the job so yeah, E definately changed my life.

Then there's all the spiritual, happiness shit it bless's you with.
 
I would not say it has really changed me but it helped me to mature alot faster. Be careful mega because extensive use with the same people can go so deep that it turns into a big fantasy and you think things about people that are not real. The ecstasy will start to infect your mind. Be careful. ROLL SAFE

It did the same thing to me. Also the second time we did it there was a girl there that I didn't know on a personal basis. I always thought she was kind of stuck up and what not and I never before had a conversation with her. Well the night we rolled we had a heart to heart conversation and now we are very good friends. Never in a million years would I have thoght I was going to become very good friends with her.

Don't forget the freaky sexual escapades that get strarted amongst these "group rollers".

That's what it's done for me, turned me into a morally corrupt freaknaut.

Thanks for the advice. All of us friends are making sure no one gets out of control we are even waiting a copule of months to do it again. So I'm not too worried
 
Definately some massive improvements. More confident, FAR better social skills, much more optimistic. Being *forced* to be happy showed me that i could be, and i've had hardly any periods of real depression in the past year, after being near constantly depressed for as long as i could remember.

Various other things changed around the same time, but the E undeniably played a big part. I' previously spent 2 solid years doing nothing but fucking myself up in various ways, and 2 years before that not doing a whole lot of anything, last year, going out clubbing on E a lot, was a really big turnaround.

That said, i do realise i've got a somewhat self destructive attitude to drugs in general, so it's likely there'll be some bad bits at some point too, but i've definately learned a lot from them.
