Im going to a rave in a month, I was plannin to drink for it then when the alcohol wears off drop a pill, is it not wise mixing E and alcohol? thanks Benxx
The only real reason I can think as to why mixing alcohol and pills would be stupid, is that alcohol causes people to make rash/stupid desicions, not think things through properly, etc, and that level of impaired judgement will make any activity more dangerous, especially when the use of harder drugs like MDMA is involved. So long as you're careful and don't get too hammered though, you should be fine.
i know people who love to do it. they cant remember shit though, and can become really retarded. its better to have a clearer head while on pills. that includes marijuana. thats just my oppinion
Its not a good idea to do, though many people enjoy it. First thing- the alcohol changes the pH balance of your digestive system. This change in pH will actually allow you to absorb more of the E than you normally would. So if you take whatever amount you normally use, you'll get much more into your system. But more importantly- alcohol and E are basically opposite drugs. Alcohol is a depressant/downer. E is a stimulant/upper. Opposite drugs in your body is really hard on you.
Chopper's right... it is very common to have nausea accompany the mixing of alcohol and X, but not too bad unless you imbibe quite a bit. Still, everybody's body chemistry is a little different... Alcohol is also a diuretic, leaching even more water out of your system than the X already would, which can lead to other problems. Your hangover will definitely be worse than usual, too.
The main reason and really the only reason you are advised not to mix e and alcohol (surprised no one mentioned it) is that alcohol dehydrates you as does e, so naturally when you mix them the effect is increased. The best advice is to alternate, drinking a glass of water in between your beer. Like have a beer, then a glass of water, then another beer then another glass of water ect, and make sure you keep hydrated throughout the night as per normal when you take e. Apart from that another aspect that could be viewed as a negative effect would be that the alcohol will work in contradiction to some of the effects your looking to get from taking e, e is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant, so it may take away from some of the speediness you want from e. Though I know a good few people that drink when doing e exactly for that reason - to take the edge off the speediness.
i drank last ngithw when i was rolling..... my buddy josh got hammmered and he was on e and we were all fine cept for a couple of bruises haha
I've heard that if you get pissed and then do e, you sober up very quickly, and get a really heavy comedown. The e cuts through the alc. So I'm told by those who've done this. Not something I'd recommend. The effects of e and alc are so unalike that it could just provoke a battle of the chemicals in your brain. Cannabis is probably the best thing to combine with it...
I allways drink at least beer while on e, and a lot of persons that i know who r rolling, they r doing the same thing. And there is no big comedown after all of this
well i sessioned some E in a spliff last night and was mildly buzzed I now realise when i go to a rave all im gona need to do is E cheers x
(most) OF YOU GUYS ARE MORONS FOR GIVING POTENTIALLY FATAL INFORMATION. The majority of people that have complications from E or DIE is caused by dehydration. A very good number of these cases it's because of the ALCOHOL. Alcohol dehydrates you. Ecstasy dehydrates you. If your at a rave, you may be dancing, DEHYDRATES YOU. Sure, alot of people mix alcohol and E, but that doesn't mean it's anywhere near safe. If your going to do it anyways, drink a good deal of water. Be careful not to drink too much. If you drink too much water you can get hypnathermia. Basically, there's not enough sodium in your bloodstream, your brain expands and crushes itself on the skull. Not fun. Eat some salty foods while your rolling (may be hard since it kills most peoples appetite) but keep some saltines on you and have a few throughout the night. Drink some gatorade as well to restore your electrolytes. People do die from ecstasy. I had a friend nearly die from dehydration. You people need to stop posting misinformation. Just because you did it and didn't die or suffer any negative reprucussions doesn't mean its safe. You all should really start looking up what drugs mix with what drugs or one day your going to get yourselves a deadly combo. I've had several friends die from assorted drug combos that could have been prevented. They were people like you all.
hehe - taking pills is NOT safe. taking pills + booz is fun. Not drinking water while on pills is NOT safe. Drinking to much water is NOT safe. happy?
Tainted--- Good reply! Good information! Unfortunately I think a large amount of people on the message board are not here to learn anything. They just want to relate their experiences, and don't care about the dangers
