Oh man... I can't imagine.

I did some on the weekend and I'm still feeling a little low.

OK, so yeah, this is a common complaint. I find even without chemicals, having a really fun night out with friends, then going back to "normal" life (work/school) can be depressing. Actually, that's been the story of my week so far. But I can see how that would be magnified by the chemical aspect (lack of serotonin or whatever).

And thanks for the tips dog latin.

The essential tip with stuff like this is to always treat it like it's the last time you'll ever do it. Over-abusing any kind of substance is never going to do you any favours so it goes without saying that keeping things sensible, following any tips and hints and making sure you are with people you know and trust are all U & K.

I only did half a pill once at a party because I'm a chickenshit. I got the buildup, but def. not the full experience. I'm planning on taking it when I see Animal Collective in April. Does this seem like a good idea? And don't say no just cause you hate AC.

It sounds like a great idea. You'll love it. Do it with a pretty girl

take some multi-vitamins to make the next day easier

Not sure I'd take E at an Animal Colective gig - not much chance for dancing, no? Where do you live?

I will admit the only time I've heard Animal Collective was at a gig 5 years ago so I may be wrong about their music, but I assumed it was very freeform, noise centered and dense. Whereas E is much better suited to music with space, groove, and above all repetition - seeing a good DJ who plays something along the axis of techno, deep house or minimal would be my recommendation.

My 'first time' was at a Portishead gig about 15 years ago, it was good, but it wasn't until around about my 5th time taking it, dancing to a DJ playing stripped-back house that I really "got" ecstasy.

my experience with E is... i'll love whatever the fuck is playing or going on

good ones and bad ones, depending on MDMA content.

Well that’s kind of the point (unless you’ve over done it), but there are some things which are a natural fit to ecstasy’s rapture and the repetitive mind-set it puts you in.

Yeah, i know, but Whitey seems to be asking if he'll have a good time and the answer is definitely yes.
It may not be the best possible time that he could be having with the drug, but it'll still be fucking fantastic.

And it'll make the Animal Collective sound less shit!

hi

Hello!

Need a back rub, surm?

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.

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
