Extacy or Not?
Hello everyone.
I need some advice on whether to try a certain drug or not.
I am attending a massive rave in the next month with over 7000 people. It is going to be an amazing experience. My friend (who has had a lot of experience with the drug) is going to be doing it, and apparently its a life altering thing. You experience euphoria, self actualization, and it could be an amazing bonding experience for he and I. I know I’ll be with a safe group of people, that are much older and experienced than I am ( They are late twenties/early thirties and I am early twenties). They used to do this kind of thing all the time whe they were younger and this is probably one of the last times they’ll be taking the drug. I have never done extacy before, or been to a rave. I am worried it might be too overwhelming. My friend (who I trust with my life) says that there is nothing to worry about. But 2 other friends have told me not to do it.
Has anyone ever taken the drug before? What should I do? I was thinking of just taking a 3rd of the dosage so that I could experience it but feel safe, and not in physical harm.
(I am concerned about my heart racing too fast and possible dehydration more than anything…psychologically I think I’ll be good…unless worrying about those 2 things.)
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot. Really appriciate it!

well personally i say dont do it. i just read a book about exctasy and meth and right form the beginning you get addicted… it can change lives around for the worse..
I think it is best to steer clear of extacy. Extremley addictive stuff, messes up your body and can have profound psychological impact. Considering you have doubts, it seems you may not even want to take it but need an excuse. I could ofcourse just be reading too much into this.
~~I am just very inexperienced and I fear the unknown. I really want to try it. I know I won’t become addicted, because this is a once in a life time type thing. I don’t go partying like this ever. I have enough self restraint (I dont even drink) to know when i’m risking my health or taking things too far. I am just worried about the physical affects during the process.
well just so you know, my mom knows someone who tried E once.. they had never tried drugs or drank beore but just wanted to try it once (sounds strangely similar to your story…. lol) and they became addicted and it ended up killing them….
so im just saying even if you say its a one time thing it might not be.. you cant alwasy control it
so they died because of an addiction, not a one time thing?
If you take too much then you can have an overdose and die from it. It can be a one time thing too, please stay away from drugs, they are really dangerous.

well yes it was an addiction but what i was trying to getacross (and forget to say.. lmao) was that it was meant to be a one time thing. its really addictive stuff though right from the beginning. im not saying NOT to do it but just be extremely careful.
I think that if you really want to you should.
I have tried it before and it does have some nasty side effects but to actually get the best experience from the rave I believe a 3rd of the usual dosage should be perfectly fine.
Maybe you should try a little bit before you go. Like a few days ahead of time to see if you like it. If you don’t you can just sleep it off and know not to take it at the rave.
Also remember the day after you’re going to feel like you are depressed.
right, well, for one, ecstasy is not addictive. thats a bunch of crap. there is nothing in it that will make you physically addicted, and sure as **** not after one hit.
i have taken it numerous times, and what your friend says is true. ive only ever had fantastic times on it. it is called the love drug after all.
but yea, you do wanna be smart about it. it might be a good idea to try it a couple of weeks beforehand, to see what its like and if you like the buzz. otherwise, if you want to leave it as a surprise, beware that for the first little bit after you take it youll feel pretty disoriented. make sure your friend stick with you.
as for the dehydration thing, its actually fairly rare that someone dies from drinking too much water. and you have to drink a LOT of water. most people who have died or become ill from that have taken far more than one pill too.
just be sensible about it, and youll be fine.
its great fun, enjoy!
Your advice was fantastic, thanks!
no worries :) it wouldnt be a rave with 7000 people in Seattle per chance would it? Halloween night?
HAHAHA
Oh yes. It will be freaking amazing! Paul Van Dyk? Plus like 12 amazing DJs!
Urine Sane - I agree with you.
The biggest problem you will find, that the first time effects are quite overwhelming, especially because of the popular view and scare tactics used by the goverment to convince you this is a “killer” “class A” drug. Esctacy as a chemical has very few side effects. Most of the deaths that have occurred are because people on the drug have done strange things, and got themselves in bad situation.
Stupid people + escasy = Death.
Smart/Well Researched people have always found that it’s a perfectly safe drug. It’s also renouned for it’s inpurity which is really what you want to be watching for.
I think that it’s an experience everyone should try - I realise that’s a very Politically incorrect thing to say, but drugs change lives, they are not the enemy.
Try and keep calm after you have done it - you’re your own worst enemy, despite how you may feel, you are perfectly safe. Keep the water stocked up, and let go man, you’ll have the best time of your life for sure.
Hope you have a great time. Oh yeh, and, good luck for the next day. hah.
=)
DFJSHFIWFGSIDSAFSGFI im going too!!!! wooooooooooo its gonna be freakin mental! moby heck yea! Paul van dyk hell yea! crystal method HELL YEA!!!
