What are the negative effects of X?

Hey I was just wondering what the negative effects of E? A buddy of mine wants me to do E, but i'm worried i'll become retarded or something...

 

wow

 

lol. Did you actually believe that?

 

You need to drink, but not too much.
When you got a proper buzz going on, it's a bastard to piss.
Comedowns are motherfuckers and you may get emotionally affected by the leftover chemicals (suddenly going into confused states or feeling shit for no reason, before feelin quite normal again, etc).
They mess with your hunger the next day and I like my food.
Comedown effects on the body include the shivers where the pores in your skin were open while on the drug. This is the absolute fucking worst - feeling dirty when you can't get clean.

 

I don't know, it's just crazy to think about.
I know fucking up your substantia nigra is what leads to Parkinsons, and that the substantia nigra plays a large roll in the function of dopamine. I just don't know any thing about the production of pills or how a mistake in production could harm your substantia nigra.

Still crazy to think about...

 

Are you asking about long term effects, or short term? Fact is, its probably not very good for you - research studies are always linking it to various negative effects on brain chemistry. Some show a possible link to developing parkinson's disease later in life. Other people who take it too often can develop severe depression. Not to mention all the teeth clenching wears your molars down fast. Personally, I preferred acid - although Im sure it has its own share of long term effects.

Speaking of short term, be aware that ecstasy is notoriously unpure - cut with a variety of substances. Anything from caffiene to ket to dxm. If youre lucky, you take it and dont get sick. The two experiences Ive had with x were horrible. The last time it was cut with some kind of psychedelic that gave me awful hallucinations. Mix that with the usual speedy effects of x, and you have a problem. For some people that would be desirable - but they werent the nice happy visuals I had on acid. It was very unpleasant and I was physically sick for two days afterwards. It was like having the worst flu ever. I swore it off after that - to me its not worth the trouble for a few hours of 'fun.'

But hey, thats just me. If you decide to try it, good luck. You might have a good experience. Then again, you might not.

 

look this thread so far is shitting on ecstacy. it sounds horrible!

but its wonderful.

yeh of course, theres a risk of getting impure pills!
but if they are pills your friends have taken or if you can get pure mdma (not a luxury thats often available around here) then you only have to worry about a few things

taking heaps of pills
drinking alcohol wile taking pills
the comedown
the following week

taking heaps of pills is an obvious one - you should only need one or two pills to have one of the best time of your life the first tiem you sucessfully take pills. that and a nice place to be.

drinking alcohol can be alright for some. however by that i mean a couple of drinks and i exclude situations that are naturally dangerous when on mdma, such as badly-ventilated but highly populated raves. you can have a few beers to ease yourself into the pill, it can be a nice idea. but no more than that unless you want to risk, not dying, but being spastic and more likely to do something really retarded.

the comedown can be very diverse in experience. depending on who you are with, what you have to do in the day, the temperature, how much speed was in the pills, the comedown can vary.some people can just go to sleep but if youve had some speed that might not be possible for a ew hours after youve realised you are down and out. playing video games ive found is very good at this stage, so is watching cartoons with some intense beats playing. perhaps the only time i find myself doing thaT. smoking weed is perfect at this stage and may bring back some of the effects of the pill, but your mind will also be scattered. short term memory null. taking benzos is also great at this stage, it is better than alcohol, which can disturb the empty stomach considerably after rolling all night.

the next week or so, you may start feeling drained and hopeless. hold your self through it all and youll come out the other end appreciating a few things about life that you didnt before. but only if you are aware that your mood is being influenced by a lack of chemicals.

while peaking, you may have strange experiences and perhaps paranoia. just remember that the extreem emotions you feel are being influenced by the drug, so if you have good feelings (as is generally the case), revel in them and develop them. but if you have bad feelings, try to change your scene and distract yourself from whatever was makin you think negative thoughts.

 

Thanks... I've done acid before and i really like it, so maybe i'll just stick to that because it doesn't seem like there is a lot that can go wrong with the actual drug leading to Parkinsons...

 

you dont actually have to worry about parkinsons man, it was bullshit

 

Stonerbill, not to start crap, but how do you know that? Are you a scientist or a researcher? Because lots of research has pointed to the conclusion it affects brain chemistry. Anyone whos taken it can tell you the immediate effects are powerful - so why not the long term as well? Fact is, its bad for you. How bad is the question. 100% pure mdma may be much more pleasant than street x, but thats just a chance you take. He asked the question, we gave him an honest answer. I wont sugarcoat things just because Im fond of a drug.

 

you can't say that the drug must have long term effects just b/c of powerful immediate effects. as well, for Parkinson's the reason the rumor is out there is b/c of a test done 'accidentally' with meth instead of mdma.

 

well really you can't say ANYTHING about long term effects

 

Methamphetamine pills can look exactly the same as e pills.

 

I had a friend who started popping them everyday for about 6 months or so and now he's just an empty shell, his parents tried electroshocktherapy but that just made him worse.. You'll ask him a question and it will take him like ten seconds to respond and he's kinda twitchy.

 

shit man, that happened to me once, and i was like wtf!!!
(i thought it was just my vision for a while.. then i realized it was really how my skin was at the time)
then i was trying to wash my face, then maybe my skin would go back to normal..
but then my eye make up screwed up, and smudged allll over my face, and then when i tried to take out the smudges, there was already make up on the towel that i didn't see, and then more make up smudged all over my face.. and i was like oh shittt!

and i was just getting to know this guy for the first time (he didn't do any E though).. lol and i looked like a complete crackhead. worst first impression of my life. haha. its okay though. i didn't like him anyway.

yeah, that was not a happy trip for me. lol

 

The worst things that have happened to me are:
depression for about a week afterwards (rarely happens anymore)
Incessantly dancing to ANY music, not even paying attention to what it is
being up all night

 

GET EDUCATED PEOPLE. THIS BOARD IS FULL OF BULLSHIT STONERS POSTING BULLSHIT OPINIONS. fuck!
am i the first to post this?
HERE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ECSTASY RIGHT HERE:

I recommend watching this entire movie, and reading what EROWID.ORG has to say about it, and fully understanding it and comprehending the drugs effects before even trying it. How old are you? Are you intelligent, mature, and capable of thinking for yourself? If not, you shouldnt be fucking around with psychedelics.
MDMA is not synthesized by crack-heads in basements, its made by TOP chemists with top of the line equipment, in other countries. THese chemists specialize in making MDMA, and are paid real nicely by O.C. Ecstasy Importers bud. You dont really need to be worrying about getting bad E, unless your buying from some twacked out mf at a rave or something. KNOW YOUR DEALER. TRUST YOUR DEALER. EDUCATE YOUR DEALER IF HES AN IDIOT, unless your just as stupid as him. most pill dealers have no idea what theyre selling

 

I Think Jus Comin Down From It And Not Gettin Any Sleep And Feelin Sick The Next Day, But Its Different For Everyone
