Hey. Thanx for your post,
"Although I wasn't particularly happy before (one reason for taking the ecstasy) the ecstasy definitely made things much worse."
Have you tried therapy? Its just an idea, might help you work through why you wernt happy in the first place. Its helped me so far.
>" It reminded me in some ways of e. The initial effect was like the transition when e first kicks in -- disorientation, sweats, hot flashes. That night (I'd taken it with dinner) I woke up at 5 am with powerful, trippy sensations: bizarre, disconnected thoughts, electric pulses through odd parts of my body, and sweating. "Ok, its weird, I said the exact same thing to my sister when I woke her up at five in the morning a few nights into taking it(spooky!) I said it felt like being on E, but without being happy, Same physical reaction though.
"the unpleasant sensation of something not quite right being done to my head."
LOL, but its true!
> "From earlier drug experiences, I'd say this stuff is pretty powerful."This is true aswell. It didnt work for me, I dont know what your exact symptoms are, so I cant say if it will work for you, but you wont know after just five days of trying. Dont let what you read on here scare you. But these effects should wear off soon, It took me two weeks to get used to it properly.
> "I haven't tried 5htp; I'll give it a shot. I think time is probably the best healer. After 15 months of sober living, healthy food, and plenty of exercise, I feel much improved. Yoga, for instance, can be quite therapeutic. Maybe in another year or so things will be back to normal."If you still dont feel right you should go back to your doctor. I think you might be feeling like you dont want to put anymore chemicals into your body to mess your head up, I felt Like that, but if you are Ill you should get some help because it might not just get better by itsellf, although a healthy lifestyle is great! thats something I need to try harder at!!!!!!!!!!!!!
