Ok so here's the story. I just picked up some mdma and I was going to do it this weekend. Thing is I just learned that antidepressants make it so that you can't feel the effects of mdma. Now I have only been on citalopram for the past 2 weeks and was wondering if I stop 4 days before trying the mdma and dose 250mg will I feel the full effects? The half life of citalopram is 35 hours so in 70 hours in theory it should be gone? Right? Thanks
I have only been on them for 2 weeks and I am feeling fine now and my doc gave me permission to stop.
2 weeks is not that long, but enough time for some effects to begin. I would recommend you stop right now for a few weeks to get the full effects of MDMA. But on the other hand I do not want to advocate you not taking medication you are prescribed. Anti depressants tend to be a permanent medication, somehow I don't think a doctor would prescribe them and then say stop a few weeks later when they have barley begun to work. But I am not a fan of those type of meds, they do more harm then good IMO, so don't listen to me. Water will not help in this situation, the only thing you can do is wait for your system to clear. 250 mg is allot for a first time. If it is good quality and not cut, about half that should work.
while SSRI's do take 4-6 weeks to build up in your system, the half life thing is based on a single dose, not after 2 weeks of taking it. there is going to be some build up for sure. it also depends on your body and other factors. you asked for advice though man, and waiting a few weeks is definitely the smart idea you seem pretty set on doing it tuesday though, so do what you're gonna do anyway 250mg does sound like a pretty high dose, i'd start lower than that, unfocusedanakin is right, about 125mg is a better place to start edit: btw you don't have to post back so often, we know you're here and we see the question... someone will get to it...
ok thanks. my only real question is will still roll hard after 2 weeks on and 1 week off? that is my main concern. this is a first time thing. also how do you preload with vit c? how long do i take the vitamins before hand? AND will water help clear the system of the antidepressants? The only thing i really want is a intense first time trying mdma. Oh and im 1 day off with 0 withdraw symtoms? whats up with that? its been like 35 hours.
the consensus is that you should just wait a few more weeks. and no, water won't help. sounds like you're going to go ahead and do what you want to anyway, so why bother asking for advice if you're just looking for someone to agree with you?
dude just wait a few weeks or take the more than likely chance that you will not roll as hard as you will if you just wait. what's the rush, anyway?
Ya I still got 500mgs but I room 250 tonight and Idk if I rolled or not I don't think so though and is it normal to feel normal then have waves where it hits for a couple seconds then goes again?
