- started New years 1999 at an underground rave

-enjoyed manys a rave, houseparty, concert over 2 years,
pilling 4 times a month

- cut down for 2 reasons.. 1 found a lot of my e "friends"
were not very genuine
2. decided to go back to martial arts

- met a girl who is gettnig into them and am feeling the
buzz all over again, but keeping it to once a month at most

Overall thoughts.. great in absolute moderation. Best at
Braindance gigs and outdoor raves. Techno and house are yawn
without em... idm isn´t

You?

I remember one bad E I had when I was 21 - it had been mixed
with Ketamine (as I only found out AFTER I'd taken it)...
after the club we went back to my sister-in-law's, about 10
of us, and I remember my head suddenly becoming VERY heavy,
and for about an hour, my body felt like it was glued to the
floor - it wasn't very pleasant! :| My head especially --
yUck!

Ketamine is great to Drum and bass, man! That glued-to
the-floor feeling is perfect for it!

nice thread...

started 2 years ago, my ex-bf who i was with for 3 years
gave me my first pill... i should of seen how it started
with him but i was too excited for it. since that one pill
my highly addictive personality quickly got attached to
ecstacy... then onwards to other things im not proud of. i
was never into the rave seen, been to a few.. but i prefered
ecstacy ,and other drugs ,enduced road trips with friends...
it was a weekend tradition that lasted a while... then ,
like i posted in the other thread, it ended cause my family
loves me. im really glad what happened, i learnt a lot of
the drug years... and dont regret it.. but im happy i was
forced out of it... it's still hard sometimes to deal with a
sober life... but i know it's worth it. yup.

First pill when I was 17 (95ish)

Worst time was when I took 5 or so and was sitting in a
flat, listening to hardcore gabba, I went out of my body and
started seeing a play before me... in this "vision" I told
my friends that they might need to call an ambulance... they
joked about it before I started going a funny colour and
looking really ill, they were rushing around, calling the
hospital and telling me everything's gonna be ok, I was
dying on the inside, just flipping out completely, then I
came out of it with a whoosh, excused myself and puked for
about ten minutes.

That kinda put me off em for about... a week.

i used pills (between 10 and 20 mixed with all kinds of
drugs what was available) from friday till sunday evening on
illegal raves.
i never slept in weekends for 5/6 years, but...... i began
to know people who made pills and they told me what
chemicals they used to make them.
because of that and the fact i saw people (and friends) die
on o.d. and that was the end of my career.
so please don't say there great because you probably dont
what you are using.
it has more cons than pros believe me

there's more to life than drugs you know, but not much more

i used to enjoy em, but i'm worried im stuck into a habit so
i say i dont do them, but weekend comes and whoops! dropped
another! i think i'll stick to a nice cocktail of whizz,
weed and alchohol, i like the up/down feeling

Started about 1990. Caned it every weekend till about 1997.
Started having insomnia and panic attacks for no fucking
reason. Had a bit of a nervous breakdown in 1998. Prescribed
anti-depressants. Initially felt better but soon became
reliant on anti-depressants to get through the day. Upped
the dosage. Still feeling panicky. Constantly on the verge
of a nervous sweat. Sometimes find it difficult even to look
people in the eyes. Just want to sleep most of the weekend
now. Lost contact with most of my friends. Socialising is a
chore. Better to stay inside. Have little life outside of
work but despise my work. Ecstacy, man.

i've seen so many good friends turn into dicks from coke,

Used to take them once a week. Stopped for a number of
reasons:

1. Internal dialogue

2. It made me look like this:
<------------------------------

3. Started going to college on a night after work

4. The whole process of getting pills and taking them became
a boring ritual

5. The night would revolve around how good an e was instead
of how good the tunes, people and ladies were.

6. Became edgy

7. Could have easily kicked people heads in for minor
reasons

8. Started to become a communist

9. Started to not give a shit about anything

Positives

Started to make tunes

Started to paint pictures

Realised I have things to do

Been going for like a couple of years.

Have roughly 3 or 4 per 3 weeks.
Only at raves.

Never had a bad time, only when I took a random one (russian
roulette with a pill from a baggie we found) and vomited but
then I got really high so it was good in the end.

evening...

i'd personally go for shrooms

i've done estasy 4 times... i wouldn't recomend it to
anyone because it completely drains your seritonin (your
happy chemical) from you brain and it also can fry the
reseptors for life leaving you permentaly depressed.... i
mean it's cool high but the next week will suck

wilcoooo - dude if you don't sleep on weekends for 5 or 6
years you have no room to preach..... there is such a thing
as moderation....

all the times i did it were right when i graduated
highshcool... i graduate college in two weeks..... but i
would never do it again.. but i'd like to go to some more
raves....

a drug addicted or what?

theres a diffewrence between addiction and use. if u dont
like drug topics then dont read them, its not like the title
was misleading, noones forcing u to participate.

i first took pills about 3 years ago, perhaps a little
longer. untill then, i would NEVER listen to any music with
a 4 2 the floor thud thud type beat. i didnt realise there
was more to it than just the cheesy chart crap and godawful
euphoric trance ala judge jules.
fortunately, at about the same time i discovered pills, i
also discovered underground techno, and free parties and
this totally changed my mind.
i went a bit silly for awhile, u know, like you do, going
out for the whole weekend, never stopping, taking upwards of
20 pills (amongst various other substances) and completely
wearing myself out. Theres absolutely no doubt this kind of
abuse can have serious side effects. But u gotta take the
rough with the smooth.
ive calmed down a fair bit now, and only get mashed up maybe
once a fortnight if that (altho obviously whenever
possible)
I wouldnt class myself as an addict, theres been times in
this period where ive had long breaks from it, not making a
consious dicision to give it a rest, but thats just the way
shit goes down. I'd rather not, but it happens, and i dont
find myself craving, or going out stealing or anything else
commenly regarded as addict behaviour.
i can go out clubbing, partying and still have a great time
without taking pills (obviously id have to make sure i have
a sizable stash of other droogs to quaff ;)
but a few decent pills can make a good night out into a
great night out.
Guess thats the reason people take em

Vive le E

ecstasy; it's the worst drug in the world. my advice to
anyone is to not touch this shit. it will ruin you. first
of all, you will feel great, have the time of your life,
you'll be happier than you've ever been in your life and
then when you get back to reality you will do anything to
get back up there, but you will be fucked because you never
can. you will do some fucked up shit to get that stuff.
your cheeks will be bleeding on the insides from grinding
your teeth for weeks afterwards, you will feel jittery and
nervous and overall shitty. you won't sleep...you will not
be the same person at all...i havent touched it in atleast a
year and a half or two years and i still can't shake that
bullshit that came with it. i still feel like i am coming
down. when i hear somebody talk about using it, i feel
pangs of jealousy. it is terrible. every day i wish i
never touched it. and it probably sounds like i was some
hardcore user, but i did it probably 10 times at the most.

maybe you will think that i am being melodramatic but i am
dead serious. it will use up all of the "happy" you've got
and leave you in the dust!

hmmm.. e... ah it was great when i was young and new to a
lot of things... then it became more of a 'social thing' at
parties... then it got boring... last time i did it was last
summer, and if i recall, i just felt jittery and didn't want
to move around too much. it's to the point that anytime i
have taken it in the past couple of years, it's predictable,
i don't feel like i love everyone and i want to get
something stronger to knock me out - because what e leaves
me with is just this annoying anticipation of something
better that's going to happen but it never does. i say, if
you're gonna be a drug addict, stick with the downers, some
sort of sedative.. keeps you less neurotic (at least for the
short-term?)
