Ecstasy (the substance): C/D?

mhmm

I can't think of anything more perverse than rolling and posting on ILX, unless your keyboard can make out with you.

it can't do that

i might need to go out

I haven't taken the stuff in years. I'd love to.

luv

Perfect E musik: "Music For 18 Musicians". Neu. Tavener's "The Protecting Veil". For the coming down: Juana Molina. Reserve for max 2-3 times a year and it won't grind on you. Magnesium + 5-HTP. Avoid alcohol like the plague (maybe just a bottle of champagne between 2 people). Drop with your spouse. Classic squared.

I'd like to know how other people feel about this!

An acquaintance described it as literally being "too good" - this is a guy (still under 20)[...] Now he DJs trance for fun.

Doesn't this kind of answer the question.

Avoid alcohol like the plague (maybe just a bottle of champagne between 2 people).

This is still about 3-4 glasses each.

I used to think they didn't mix, but while alcohol dulls part of the buzz I find they go together quite nicely (although probably not the best idea for your body). I do make sure the majority of my drinking is either before or after as I find I get fluid retention while 'on one', and the idea of huge amounts of fluid sloshing around my system is a little scary. But then I find I naturally start to share any booze I have with the people I'm with so there's never much change of that… and then start sharing their cigs in return (I'm a non-smoker), and then start liberally sharing my hugs… things I'd normally never do.

ahh good times...

lol omg best drug in the world

Well, whatever. I'll never get the hang of this.

I planned this to be the other thread with this name but the search terms just came up all
at once.

ecstasy

I did this for the first time like two years ago and immediately decided I will be doing it once every few months for as long as I can. That first night was fucking transcendent. Best drug.

I can barely remember what it feels like being high on E, but i remember i liked it....

I did it once and it was great.

I'd love to do it again w/the right crowd.

few weeks back had a transcendent up followed by a brutal down

wd repeat the experience obv

That Koze track is incredible.

I have never done E, the thought of the comedown terrifies me

high time i tried this again.

first hour: depressed
second and third hour: clear headed for the first time in years

would live to do this again but I would have no idea where to begin obtaining any

ditto

time for an ilx FAPE

great drug. when I first tried it, 11 years ago or so I guess, it had a profound positive effect on my mood and outlook on life. Opened me up to ways of thinking differently, gave me perspective. I can see why they've used it for treating ptsd etc.

My comedowns were really bad at times mind you. Good to have benzos on hand for the morning after.

Xp me too. I think it altered my personality quite a bit, but maybe in a good way? It definitely got me out of a long-term unsociable/introverted slump and showed me I could let go and talk to strangers and jump around and have a good time without being self-conscious

Great video of Move D playing that trackat Freerotation: https://www.facebook.com/MoveD.official/posts/10153490895729511

One may make a punt that some people in the crowd may have a some point had some themselves.

I miss FR!

I only took E 3 times and that was back in the 90s...

Enjoyed the first 2 times. The third time felt too artificial - as if I was aware that my brain was suddenly producing incredible feelings of goodwill and projecting them onto absolutely everything. I remember looking at a copy of the Radio Times (tv guide) and feeling "Good old Radio Times - I've always loved the Radio Times" and then thinking to myself that this was rubbish. I lost interest in E after that.

Just took an acid blotter this weekend for the first time in ages, Interesting experience! I became incredible physically aware of how hyper-tense I am all over my body and how much I need to relax.

"I remember looking at a copy of the Radio Times (tv guide) and feeling "Good old Radio Times - I've always loved the Radio Times"

loool

That's why you have to be doing something better than looking at Radio Times. I've only done it once and even I know that.

^ Yep. With great power etc.

The one time I did it it was with my girlfriend at Ghetto Gothik. The club became the most amazing place then we went downstairs and poured our hearts out to each other. A+

Yes - of course.

The first two times were in a club, and the third was at home..But somehow the home experience revealed E's limitations in a way that disappointed me. I like my drugs to at least have aspirations to be mind-expanding - not just a feel-good short-cut that feels too crude.

Pros: empathy for all fellow human beings, makes you a good dancer

Cons: listening to shit trance

lol tbqf i have many fine memories w/ shit trance as the soundtrack

if you have a secure relationship I would absolutely recommend it, so intense, lovely lucid post-club experiences

(never done it btw)

despite being a part of the era sonically , i have never done it.
in fact, i once went to a club doing my 'thing' and out of the blue an old school friend appeared :
him : 'what you on, cos it must be ace !!'
me : 'nahh .. cider and a few vodkas .. '
him : 'lucky you, wish i could do that shit you do after a few drinks'
turned out he was referring to my '15 sanctioned dad-dance grooves !
that said, now i am of an age whereby my responsibilities are somewhat reduced now, and so, i have begun to wonder :
"FUCK ! what did i miss out on ! "

with all due respect I feel like people who are hobbled by a sudden recognition of the artificiality of the experience need to level up
