I've seen a few threads recently discussing how ecstasy affects memory. Many people seems to notice a decrease in memory after ecstasy use/abuse, and some swear they've done tons of pills and are the same as ever. I'd like to see a poll so we can gauge how this community has been affected by ecstasy.

a. I have used ecstasy and have no memory problems
b. I have abused ecstasy and have no memory problems
c. I have used ecstasy and have memory problems
d. I have abused ecstasy and have memory problems

If you feel outside factors (other drugs, pre-existing conditions) may have led to your memory issues explain it in a post.

I have used ecstasy a lot without abusing it and have noticed no negative effects on my memory, aside from the days after using of course
 
a. I have used ecstasy and have no memory problems

though i did abuse one night at a rave and got a random call from some dude i apparently met which i do not remember at all whatsoever. great night though.
 
I'm an "a" aswell. I've noticed no negitave effects on my memory other than when I was on the drug.
 
I have abused ecstasy and have memory problems.

It's pretty serious, I have shit memory now.
 
I have used ecstasy and have no memory problems.

I'm not counting the few days right after use though.
 
Nice poll idea although probably need to have a lot more options for an accurate reflection but fun never the less.
 
I've used Ecstacy and i've noticed a decline in memory, sometimes draw 'blanks' as im doing something....
 
I would like to be a B, but i am probably a D.

You would probably not notice that you have memory problems from ecstacy, even if you do. It would just seem normal to you that you dont remember something :-/ I have spoken to alot of people that have used/abused MDMA and i am pretty sure it does leave you permenantly changed (read that as damage if you like :) ). But then again, nearly everything does...




also nearly everyone that has taken 'ecstacy' in the UK will probably have eaten a few BZP/mcPP/speed pills. I dont know anyone that took clean pills, and was 100% informed right from the start
(apart from friends that i introduce :D )
 
btw, when i was smoking weed regularily my memory seemed fine to me at the time, but once i stoped i really noticed the difference :O We cant really be very objective about memory loss on ourselves :(
 
Even after my first time doing ecstasy I didn't remember what happened that night really. I started recalling a story about a month or so later how my friend tried to teach me this handshake and how he stole my nose, which I started to associate with being really stoned one night. It wasn't until halfway telling my story that I realized that this stuff all happened the night I first rolled.

I noticed the same thing!
 
I voted D but like many have stated in the forementioned threads, I don't know if I can contribute this entirely to MDMA. Blow, booze and xanax didn't help I know that for sure. Cannabis every now and then. So it's hard to put my finger on exactly what caused the damage.

That being said, a lot of my friends who did almost everything else, minus the MDMA, do not report any memory problems or stuttering(even worse) So it's hard to draw concrete evidence that MDMA caused these problems, but I believe it had the main role(no pun intended:))

I voted C, but because I'm getting well into my 50's, it could very well be an age-related decline. Too many uncontrollable variables in a fun poll like this.

And anyway, my memory has always been pretty good - it's only certain words that I have difficulty recalling. One word especially - it's .................... :\
 
I abused the hell out of ecstasy and I feel my memory is pretty fucked up...

Thank god I don't do it as much now although I got a steady supply of pure MDMA crystals so have been doing it for the past 2 weekends gone by.

I think I better stop using it again!
