my friends and I have been using e for about three years on and off. the first two years, we only did it once each year. But this year we've been rolling about every weekend since august/september. We tried to quit in December (made it a month) then we like crashed and rolled twice in one week. It sucks, because it feels like we can't get away from the stuff. It's definetly not a physical addiction, but has anyone had serious mental addiction problems with e? it might not even be the e, because we're always raving when we roll, so it could be the lifestyle. I just get nervous because i'm a pre-med student which is really important to me, and if ecstasy fucked that up, i would be devastated. I'm not sure if this is normal or not to love e this much...
Maybe you just have to step out for a while. Stop the raving and do something else. If your friend is the problem then you have to step away from them too and chill with a new crowd. If you find yourself rolling all by your lonesome...then you might have a problem. Just change up your current lifestyle and see where you end up.
All I'm gonna say is be careful because if you use it too frequently, you'll fuck the party mood up forever (or at least a long long time)
Yeah man, you should deffinatley chill with it for a while, especially if your having mixed feelings, the x can really fuck you up in the long run.
Think of regular pilling it in terms of ruining the magic. The longer the break between each session, the more the magic works. The shorter the break between each sesh, the less effective it is and if you carry on like you have been doing I swear to God, eventually you're gonna have to literally intoxicate yourself with the things to get the plateau you're looking for. But it's your call.
thanks everyone, i appreciate it. my friends and i did decide to lay off the e for a little while. hopefully a LONG while. but it's going to be tricky. I mean all we own are techno cds and we get all hyped when we listen to them haha we're just going to have to work together. we're talking about stopping for a few months, one of my friends said, if you do decide to do e again, there will still be pills somewhere and a rave you can go to. so it was reassuring to hear that maybe I feel like i'm trying to cram too much fun in, and it's risky. besides, it's not worth loosing the magic over
All you listen to is techno?? Try alternating when you're off your heads between different styles of music - you will be pleasantly surprised! Try some drum n bass such as Pendulum, The Logistics, Dope Skills, Drumsound and Bassline Smith, etc. Also, try some chilled down techno-bleep cook offs like Antoine Claraman, Sander Kleinenberg, Bodyrox, Café Groove, Chris Lake, Chanel, etc. to alternate to between moods. Also, a bit of Prodigy will never fail! Something as simple as a change in music can cause a big impact on not just the buzz, but the enlightenment within the experience and the moods following in the week after. [Music on E is THE key to your mind]
I agree about the music.... I've only tried e once but I was in a drum n bass club and that was weird for me (i'm a bit of an indie girl - it really wasn't my scene!) but I was in different company and I had such a good night.
if you love raving and wanna slow down on e, and dont wanna be sober while raving, you could try lsd, it felt just as pleasurable as e when i ate it, which was a pleasant suprise, and itd certainly be suitable, and make the rave even more mind blowing
nyah, raving on acid is only a decent fun buzz for me when I'm candy flippin'. I've tried it with just acid but it just wasn't as intense as E was. It was there, I had a buzz but inside my mind I was waiting for a stronger plateau to bind with the scene.
