im doing X tomorrow with my friend. itll be his first time, and my third. and i was wondering how much water is too much? i know you can die from way too muhc water. and i dont want the death of my best friend on my conscience. even though dying from too much water is unlikely.
just drink as much or a bit more as you normally would or as you feel the need to. Its best to drink in more frequent small sips, then taking large gulps. Stay safe
dont drink unless your thirsty. you dont NEED to drink when you pop e... its no different then when your sober, dont drink unless your thirsty.
^ are you kidding me? Most deaths that ever happen from e are because of dehydration and overheating. Which can easily be avoided by periodically drinking water and taking breaks if dancing or using a lot of energy at a time.
i personally think there is a lot to do with the heat of a crowd in most ecstacy deaths - they are almost always reported at raves or at festivals where there are many people gathering underground or in tents or something. i think that dancing in crowded, badly ventilated areas, is the reason people stuff up. i think you can work out how much is too much pretty easy. do you normally drink water? a lot of people drink water all the time. just stop drinking if you find yourself drinking over twice the amount of fluid than normal. you dont have to drink much water to keep hydrated - people need more water when in teh situation i mention above, but if you are just in a normal or cool environment, you would only dehydrate if you seriously drank only beer or something, or only red bull and took heaps of E. youve got to drink a lot to overhydrate though, and i think you would realise 'thats like the third bottle in 10 minutes'. my intuition at the moment tells me if youre drinking more than 1L in an hour, you needntt try to drink much more
Yeah what everyone else said but if you want to absalutely positive you wont drink too much or too little water then don't drink water, drink an isotonic sports drink instead, lucozade, gatorade, powerade ect its impossible to die from water intoxification with these so drink as much as you want, they also rehydrate better than pure water does.
