> > Why does something that feels so good have to be soooooo.. bad? I've struggled with depression on and off most of my life. I discovered e at age 29, 3 years ago and it was HEAVEN. I did it for 2 years. Every weekend that started on Fri and ended on Sun.I held back when I developed a chest pain that would NOT go away, last year. I went back and did it like 9 times this year. Here's the bad news. I have uncontrollable anxiety and am having what feels like a continuous panic attack. Chronic chest pain. Everything gets to me and It's hard to function. I have what they call "derealization" & sometimes I think I'm losing my sanity. I was put on Celexa today. Haven't started it yet. BUT it is SICK..very very sick the fact that I'm already trying to think when I'm going to be well enough to do e again.I miss it already.The scary part is I don't know how much damage my brain underwent already or how long it will take to fix it.If ever. Here's my advice: IT IS NOT WORTH IT! There's so much to life that you don't want to miss on. HOW THE HELL DID I GET MYSELF INTO THAT????

> > Control it IF you can. If not, seek professional help. The stuff is addictive and it is very damaging. Get someone to prevent you from doing it. I've read so many postings before of people wanting to stop SSRIs to feel the E! If this is not heart-wrenching, what is?

> i agree with your stance....MDMA was used theraputically from the early 1920's until about 1960. there is a trial going on as we speak (out of florida) for reevaluating therapy while the patient is under the spell of MDMA. the problem lies - not in my opinion, but in fact - that your MDMA is not properly synthesized (since criminalization in 1985) and as such, you are getting a mixed-bag of goods unless you know how to either manufacture MDMA at pharmaceutical-grade levels or can reliably test for impurites (ususally methamphetamine). i have promised dr. bob that i will not delve into the details of syntheses of illicit compounds, but this warrants mentioning: you might very well have been taking large doses of methamphetamine with MDMA, which might be a clue to your current situation. more later, and please welcome my best wishes, chemistVery true.. take a look at some of the adulterants: http://www.dancesafe.org/labtesting/
I was surprised to read that the vast majority of Ecstasy tested contained mostly *caffeine* Yet Most of the tested pills DID contain various amounts of MDMA and and other closely related ring substituted amphetamines (MDA, MDE).
I guess (all things being relative) we should be pleased that adulterants like DXM (which potentiates neurotoxicity) are not as prevalent... Although the piperazine derivatives TFMPP and BZP have been popping up in Ecstacy pills. There is even one pill that contains *heroin* *Prozac* and *asprin* (?!)
