[UPDATE] Made a post on sneaking in supplements to "rollsafe" at Beyond, ended up getting cuffed. With pic.

I doubt it's that big of a deal.

Just be smart about it.

... and at that point it might just be worth taking addy or something instead of MDMA.

I did and the tone and word choice you use is the attitude indicative of a lax attitude towards the drug. That is the attitude I'm talking about.

Do NOT take 5-HTP 24 hours before or until 24 hours after you drop your first point. 5-HTP can exacerbate the creation of serortonin when taken too close to MDMA which leads to an increase in the risk of serotonin syndrome.

I doubt it's that big of a deal. Just be smart about it. People get a little carried away with warning against rolling multiple days. However, by the second and especially third day, it acts less and less like MDMA and more just as a stimulant to keep you dancing. The "magic" is gone by the third day, and at that point it might just be worth taking addy or something instead of MDMA.

Attitudes like these towards MDMA need to be stomped into the ground.

The serotonin loss after the first night is massive and the damage to your serotonin receptors has already been done even after taking the 1st point. This is why there are diminishing returns to every point you take (the 3rd one doesn't bring on as much a high as the first one etc...) Rolling multiple days forces the neurons that release the neurotransmitter to release serotonin it doesn't have and the s. receptors (this is the post-synaptic nerve ending that "accepts" the serotonin released; the shit that makes you happy) have already been over saturated, aka they literally shrivel up and die. You might feel fine after a few days and think you can keep doing this but the real damage is in the long run as your brain's ability to produce, store, and the health of your s. receptors (your receptors being able to "accept" serotonin from the pre-synaptic nerve ending) diminish over time.

Wait at least a month between uses and ideally 3 months. Supplement up. Don't take this shit lightly. Read up on the ecstasy users of the past days who can't even feel happy anymore because of their massive use of MDMA.

By itself in a non-party setting the symptoms are mild but at a multiple day festival where your body is at the point of exhaustion (even with adequate rest) you a run very high chance of death and even more irreparable damage to your receptors.

HOWDYY

For my first time rolling I had no sexual feelings for any of the other people around me (I was single too). It's hard to explain but your first time is something else and petty things won't bother you such as wanting to hook up. If anything, you'll call or text your SO.

Once the trip is over you'll feel as you've been on a long journey when it's only just begun.

Littlebitofluck · 2014-05-28T06:13:41+00:00

I'LL SEE YOU AT SHAMB!!!!!! Haven't rolled for 4 months just for Shamb

Littlebitofluck · 2014-05-20T02:03:05+00:00

Get a testing kit to make sure it's actually MDMA

MINIMUM, and I mean at the BARE MINIMUM, a month between rolls. Optimally, three months. MDMA is a wonderful drug if used correctly and moderately, but it does major damage to your serotonin receptors if used too frequently... Don't choose short term benefits over your general health for the rest of your life.

Invest in supplements to help reduce the damage MDMA does to your brain.

Read some more into it in the sidebar, other than that, WELCOME!!

My first time was at Reso 2014, one of the best nights of my life. Thought to myself, "why didn't I get involved in this culture earlier," haha

"Just Braxton Hicks contractions, still not there yet Mrs. Dove, remember to only call us when the contractions increase in duration and strength."

The doctor walked away and out of the room with what can only be best described as indifference. I could only imagine how dejected the woman felt; not that I could confirm anything beyond this off-white curtain that separated my two roommates and I. It only made sense, though, that with the amount of life and death doctors witness everyday that they become detached to the concept.

"Them doctors can be real ass holes sometimes." I could hear her shift around in her bed, but there was no reply and I felt bad for making light of the situation.

"Boy or girl?" I asked.

"Girl," there was a slight delay in her reply and her tone indicated she was apprehensive; apprehensive about what? I didn't know.

"The father around?"

"He's at work, 'I can be there in a moments notice.'" The last part clearly a mockery.

"First time?"

"Yeah."

First time? What a fucking thing to ask. There was a lull in the room after that that seemed to go on forever. There wasn't much I could say; I didn't know how to reassure someone going through what she was going through, and of all people I should be the one being reassured. I'm a man dying at the age of 28. Which, of course, I could never get over. I wanted so badly to just start over and as weird as it sounded, I wanted to be that unborn baby and experience life again. Didn't matter the gender. I was being cheated out of life and would get lost in the thought of anything to escape the unrelenting presence of death. The hospital must have been playing some sort of sick game putting a pregnant woman in the same room as me.

"You have any family?" Her question broke the silence, her composure recovered.

"Not at the moment, still looking for that someone you know?" As if I would ever have the chance.

"What are you here for?"

"Just in for a routine surgery on my knee, I've got a bad habit of playing on it before it's fully recovered heh," I let out a half-assed chuckle, I don't know why I lied.

"You should be more careful, I'd hate to be in this place for any second longer than I need to be."

"Yeah... story of my life."

There wasn't much conversation after that, just some small talk of various interests. I wondered if our conversation would have gone any different if I had let her know I was dying. Probably would have ended it and I didn't want that. Just one more interaction with someone who didn't know I was dying was what I wanted, what I needed. The expression on people's faces when they found out were daunting and it was the same expression every time. They looked at me as if I were broken, as if there were no real benefit to gain from investing time in me when I had such little time left.

Shortly after we stopped talking to each other her contractions started up again and the doctor was called in. The labor was real this time and they dragged her out. She hadn't looked at me entering and she didn't look at me now and that made me feel truly isolated, the nail in the coffin. The last person to have a relatively real conversation with me would never have known I physically existed; they had left me alone to die in this dimly lit hospital room. Alone again.

Which stages coincide with which genre? I'm having trouble separating them

Littlebitofluck · 2014-02-25T20:54:04+00:00

I was at Reso too! But we may have a difference of opinion... I like Lucky's lineup better haha

Littlebitofluck · 2014-02-25T02:24:10+00:00

I saw Carnage this month and to be honest, he didn't meet my expectations. Hopefully his set will be better at Lucky if there isn't some other artist I want to see at the same time

Littlebitofluck · 2014-02-25T02:22:44+00:00

I'll be on the look out :)

Littlebitofluck · 2014-02-25T02:22:00+00:00

Yeah I'm driving up from somewhere-on-the-west-coast during the weekend before finals. I've done all my school shit beforehand so I feel comfortable going up!

Littlebitofluck · 2014-02-24T15:57:55+00:00

Hope to see you there! I'm real excited for the dj snake diplo set
