Drugs seem to be an integral part of the rave experience these days. But not a lot of people take the time to understand the drug of choice before they do it. They just pop it in their mouth, inject it, or smoke it. So many people die every year from taking drugs. Why? Because people don't take the time to ask themselves if doing the drug was the best decision they could've made before they did it. Why? Because they mixed drugs that never should have been mixed. Why? Because they took a drug that wasn't pure. This is up so that you can educate yourself about the effects, dangers, and general knowledge of these drugs. It's your choice. Please choose to become aware of what you are doing before you do it! Always have a safe drug experience! *And never do something you aren't sure about* *Please read these article's*
The designer drug Ecstasy, also known as E, X, or XTC, has been making headlines in Hartford lately due to its proliferation at rave parties held at dance clubs in the city. Here are some of the things you should know about this drug if you've considered taking it or if you're a parent concerned about your children. 1. What is Ecstasy? It's the "street" name for MDMA, or 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, a "mood elevator" that produces a euphoric state without hallucinations.� 2. Ecstasy is Nothing New. MDMA was first synthesized in 1914.� 3. Ecstasy is Illegal. Ecstasy became illegal in 1985. The recent shutdown of three dance clubs in Hartford shows that law enforcement officials are serious about cracking down on the use and sale of this illegal drug.� 4. You Don't Know What You're Getting. Ecstasy comes in a pill form, and, because it is not a regulated substance, it often contains other drugs besides MDMA, some of which are more dangerous. Ecstasy tablets can vary widely in strength.� 5. Ecstasy is Not Addictive. But it can lead to compulsive behavior, and its effects diminish with continued regular use.� 6. Ecstasy is Not a Substitute for Antidepressants. Because of its ability to lift the user's mood, consumption of Ecstasy can delay individuals from seeking the proper treatment for Depression. Some people experience more intense Depression after taking Ecstasy.� 7. You Can Die. There have been some deaths associated with Ecstasy. Many have resulted from heat stroke brought on by extended periods of dancing without replenishing body fluids. Other dangers may include liver damage, irregular heartbeat, decreased memory and learning ability. Two deaths were recently linked to Hartford's club scene and Ecstasy use. 8. Ecstasy Doesn't Mix. There is increased risk of an adverse reaction when you mix Ecstasy with alcohol or other drugs.� 9. The Side Effects of Ecstasy. Side effects can include dilated pupils, blurred vision, rapid eye movement, dry mouth and throat, faintness, nervousness, chills, sweating, high blood pressure, and muscular tension.� 10. Ecstasy Isn't Cheap. It sells for $20 to $30 per tablet on the street.
Some Friends Trip Experiences Birthday at a rave �I'd like to tell a tale of my first flip. Let me just ground this by explaining that it was my first indoor Rave. My third experience with MDMA, and my umpteen thousandth experience with Uncle Syd. The day after my 21st birthday was a party called Fantastic, that definitely lived up to it's name. We got there and dropped the E probably 60 or so mgs. It was rumored to be laced with H but we all know about the fallacies behind that. The party was mostly Trance and progressive trance, and I was having an awesome time. About two sets in I went to the outdoor chill area to check on my party cadre. The minute I got there everyone was calling me the birthday boy and this guy I had never met before threw to hits into my mouth. (Not exactly the worst thing that could happen.) Anyway, about 40 minutes later we were dancing to the amazingly tight set that Ty Tek always seems to have instore for us. About that time I started to feel the effects of the Vitamin A kicking in. Suddenly I start to hear the X-files theme song and a sudden beat drops and moves the floor, at that exact moment a programmed intelli-beam flashes right at me. It was the first time I had ever actually felt a light. Once the light moved away from me, I looked at where I was and realized that I was against the wall, three feet away from where I was when the beam hit me. It was then that I discovered the true power of the Rave. Everything about it just seemed so clear. Ever since that moment I cannot flip without a fat techno beat. Walking Orgasm Exploring E's sexual energy The first time I did E was at my friends house. There were 6 of us all together, all very close friends and one being my boyfriend at the time. All virgins to E. we took it at about 10pm and were sitting and talking next to the warm fire. We had heard from our more experienced friend who was not present that night, that drinking water is a necessity and E can be very dangerous if get dehydrated. (drink often!)I wasn't feeling much after 15min. but my other friend m", who was doing yoga near us started to comment on the weird body sensations. I was now very excited to start tripping, but I wasn't yet! So I decided to take a big sip of water and ..."POW" I felt the water slide down my throat like I had never experienced before. I was suddenly so happy with a strange calm energy. I went near the fire and felt its warmth smoothing and exciting my skin. I felt the warmth and energy from my boyfriend. I discovered my skin had now become super sensitive. Touching anything, (something's more than others) gave you a feeling not unlike the stimulus that is felt from sex. I acquired, and still retain a fetish for rubbing soft things against my cheeks. We later moved into a bedroom. Where we all decided clothes, especially bras were way too constricting. We striped to our underwear. I piked up the radio and my BF helped me by picking up the cord. We looked at each other and it seemed in that moment nothing but our selves existed. I felt such a perfect love for him then. "your eyes were full of me in connected energy." We played soft music -- Delirium, and just explored everybody physically kissing massaging, playing with hands. Surprisingly all my jealousy was gone, there were no sexual feelings just feelings of love, building and building in the room. I was an orgy based purely on love for each other. You get to really feel and understand other peoples energy. Look in to someone else eyes "gate way to the soul" let me tell you! I felt closely connected to every one there. I still am. I suggest playing with every sense you have especially touch. We played with ice :) ! oil, dancing is great. The next day I was tired, but blissful. Contented in the happy after glow of sex. Have so much more I could have written. This experience has made our friendships closer. Every time I think of the experience I just get so excited and happy! But I can also have a relative close experience without it. I love it! GOOD!!!! like a walking orgasm!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOW!"An enthusiastic first-time MDMA reportWow. WOW. WOOOOOOOOOOW! Sorry... Had my first X experience this weekend, and I though I'd tell the net what it was like, and also ask a few questions about this stuff to the people that know more about it than I do. I was well-prepared for the evening even before I took the X. I had eaten a sixteenth of shrooms (shitty) and taken 2 or 3 hits off the 3.5 foot bong my friend has called Goliath (really good weed, too). By the time I got to the rave, I was so fucked up I was getting deep meaning from the music, free-associating with everything around me, and generally out of my skull. It actually wasn't very pleasant for about 40 minutes, until my friends got back (they had a problem getting into the rave and had to go back home to get some different Ids). I hooked up with my source soon after that, too the little pill, and sat down in the UV room they had there to wait. By the time the X kicked in, the weed had worn off and I wasn't so out of it anymore. The first thing I noticed was a subtle alteration in my perceptions, followed by a slow but steady surge of energy throughout my whole body. It wasn't like caffeine or ephedrine, where you get really jittery, but rather it was very smooth and pleasant (VERY pleasant. I think this stuff could be addictive). While this was going on, I was just laying back in the UV room digging the cool sensations, and I noticed that little things like moving my hands across the foam mattress I was laying on gave *VERY* interesting sensations. I tried smoking a cigarette, and found it to be an incredibly sensual pleasure (I normally don't like smoking). My friend came in (sorry no first names, I'm a tad paranoid), and I was overcome with a rush of freindship-type feelings for him, and demanded a hug, which felt SO wonderful (I'm not gay, and it wasn't anything sexual, just a friendly-type thing). That was at about T+50 minutes. I exchanged several more hugs with other friends. Shook hands with another first-timer, and just generally grooved on the cool vibes I was feeling. About five minutes later, Friend #1 persuaded me to get off my ass and gout out to the dance floor and dance. I had been surprised before at my ability to just lay there (I had though that the Amphetamine effects would have precluded any kind of sitting still, but apparently not). I gout out and start dancing at about T+1 hour. I was really feeling it now, so while I was dancing my ass off I was spinning up to random people and asking them 'are you Xing'? I only found a couple of people who were, but I ended up dancing with this cute girl from a nearby town. We were slow-grind-dancing for a while, when things started to get REALLY weird. All of a sudden when I was staring into her eyes, and she was staring into mine (I normally have a hard time looking people in the eyes, but it was totally natural) when suddenly I found myself feeling that tightness in the chest you get when you are in love. *LOVE*. I had met this girl 15 minutes ago (we're at about T+1:45 here) and I was totally in love with her. This realization completely threw me, and I just reveled in it while we danced for a little while more, and then sat down in the UV room and smoked some more cigarettes (again, this was LOTS of fun). Also, One of my friends procured some 'toys': a peppermint nasal inhaler (makes your head feel like a peppermint patty), and a rainbow glo-stick (very cool looking). My friends came into the UV room again, and I suddenly realized I was in love with ALL of them, male and female. It wasn't really sexual, just pure love (something I don't think I've EVER experienced before). We got up and went to another room sat down in a crowd of people, and rolled a J and smoked up. Not too long after this, my friends decided to leave, but I was having too much fun to go, so I stayed and danced with this girl until the place closed a couple of hours later, and then walked about *THREE MILES* home, IN THE POURING RAIN. I even got totally lost, wandering around downtown SLC, and I didn't care because I had so much energy. I'm damn lucky I didn't get triple pneumonia. Got home about T+6 hours, fell into bed, and slept on and off for the entire rest of saturday and sunday until noon. When I woke up, I found out that I had been grinding the living shit out of my teeth the entire trip, and they were loose in my sockets for about 12 hours. I need to get a chew-toy next time. My conclusions? One, it's REALLY REALLY REALLY fun. Two, I can see how it could be addictive. Three, make sure you organize yourself *before* you do it, because you lose things really easily. Four, beware of unintentional emotional bonding!!! This drug opens you up SO much that you can easily form deep emotional attachments to someone you don't even know. It should be REAL interesting calling this girl I was dancing with tomorrow (she wasn't Xing and I was). I dunno if I'll be doing this very often (it's $20 a hit 'round here), and it racks your body up pretty hard. Questions: It's been ~36 hours, and I'm still feeling it. How long before it goes away? Also, any health advice anyone who is more experienced than I can give me will be much appreciated. All those stories about neural damage give me a bit of a pause. Sorry for rambling on so long, but this was one of the most intense experiences of my life, and I had to get it off my chest.
