Title: Post 1st time XTC use query
Post by: boxer on March 04, 2012, 05:29 pm
About a month ago, I ordered a sample of two MDMA pills.   My wife and I have never tried MDMA before, but have wanted to for quite awhile, hence the order.  Some details:   I ordered from one of the more popular vendors on SR. The pills were described as 160mg each.  Research led me to the first time does of 80 mg.   I'm 220 lbs. and the Mrs. is @ 100 lbs.  (Oh, she just said 104 "I'm getting fat"  ::) ) Anyway, the pills come, the lady takes one pill and I rail half of one and take the other half about 30 - 45 minutes later.

Then nothing.

I've racked my brain trying to find some reason why the flat response for both of us.  The last drug taken had been some meth, maybe a week earlier, so I don't think there would be any interference from that.  Or at least not enough to completely negate the MDMA.

As I said, I ordered from one of the more popular vendors, and I almost posted this in a review thread, but realized that I would only get flamed from die-hard fans.  My suspicion is that the pills were bunk, but I'm willing to suspend that for objective discussion.  I didn't complain to the vendor, as the cost was quite low, and didn't feel like it was worth the bother.

Any thoughts?

My plan is to try some of Tony76's powder next.

Are you taking SSRI meds? I went to a club with a friend on Friday and fed her nearly 250mg of pure MDMA over the evening and she barely got off baseline whereas I was gurning my face off on 150mg. It turned out she's been taking fluoxetine for the past month, as she knows nothing about chemistry or pharmacology she hadn't thought there would be any interaction between the two...

Thanks for the speedy reply Wowzers.

My wife takes a SARI, specifically Trazodone, which was my first suspect, as it seems to interfere with MDMx but doesn't block them entirely as a SSRI would.   This doesn't explain my lack of fun.  Not to say that there can only be one, and only one reason why the pills didn't work, I just don't take anything that would spoil the effects.

Did you take it on a totally empty stomach?

Also, it takes me at least 200mg for the first dose to really start to feel it, some people just need more.  80mg is a good dose to start, but if you didn't feel anything, I'd say increase it to 150mg or so.

I would suggest getting MDMA powder, testing it with reagent, and then capping it yourself to know that you are getting the dose you actually want.
