  1. Nah you get a come down from ecstacy. I personally feel that a hangover (due to alcohol) is much worse that a come down! But that's just me!


  2. not exactly a hangover but u can become dehydrated..

    tired.. and just generally depressed because regular

    life isnt as euphoric.. that could last a day to weeks..

  3. the feeling of death-warmed up that you get from a bad alcohol hangover is worse than any drug-related comedown.

  4. Not a hangover exactly - but the come-down can be pretty bad, depending on how much you take.  You can feel pretty low for a couple of days.  Sleep is the best thing.

  5. No, but you suffer from something known as a "comedown" -basically your brain has been flooded with serotonin for hours on end, as it wears off you become tired and often depressed. This can last for a few hours, or in some cases a few days depending in the MDMA content of the ecstasy you've been taking. Many ecstasy users will use other narcotics to ease them through the come-down and as a result many deem ecstasy as a "gateway drug".

  6. What happens is that the psychoactive component of ecstasy, called MDMA, inhibits the reuptake of serotonin into the SERT pumps and reverses the action of the transporter so that it begins pumping serotonin into the synapse from inside the cell. This means that the MDMA acts directly on many receptors, among them the serotonin and andrenalin receptors, and hyperstimulates them. In effect, you feel ecstatic and euphoric after having taken an ectasy pill, as serotonin is known to regulate, among many other things, your mood. When the effects of the drug wears off, however, the forced increase of serotonin (and andrenaline) during the effects leads to an insufficient level of serotonin (and andrenaline) afterwards. This leaves you feeling physically and mentally drained, exhausted and very depressed. This can last from a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the purity of the ecstasy pill and how much it effected you.

  7. I tried it once many years ago and the day after I felt like sh*te - really tired and moody.  Probably because I spent all night dancing and doing things I shouldn't have been doing....

  8. Actually if your ecstasy is any good the come down / hangover is actually very minimal. Ecstasy wears off pretty quickly and other than the fact it allows greater levels of endorphines doesnt have too many other side effects.

    These days pills are laced with all manner of other substances to bulk them up and reduce the cost of the drug. They've been known to be caked with speed (amphetamine), heroin, glucose (basically a powdered sugar), ketamine, aspirin and even talcum powder... (I imagine the list goes on)

    Now most of those substances have very different responses on the human body to ecstasy with a far greater tendancy to lead to the lethargy and depressed feelings that most people associate with a come down.

    For example, speed is likely to keep you awake and annihilate your appetite. Between them your like to stay awake and not eat for anything from 12 to 48 hours longer than you normally might (its actually why a lot of clubbers look so slim and sallow). Imagine going clubbing on a Friday night, taking a few pills and not having any sleep until Sunday or even Monday night (and probably not much to eat either). When the effects finally wear off you're bound to feel like crud.

    However like most prohibited drugs, prolonged long term use of pure ecstasy has been shown to lead to depression and anxiety issues that can have far reaching effects in to adulthood.

    I've also had experience in that environment, and enjoyed a lot of it. But had to give it up when I realised my concentration and ability to work was being impaired, I was also begining to notice signs of severe paranioa.

    Given my time I'd still do it again as long as you're not blind to the fact that it really is very bad for you.

  9. hey

    yeah i take quite alot of ecstasy on the weekend when i party with my band.

    yes you do, its a horrible horrible feeling and it last all day.

    it is alot worse than a hangover but it is called a "come down"

    hope i cleared that up for you lol

  10. I used to call it BIG TUESDAY!

    if i sued to take pills on saurday night then by tuesday i was so low i wanted to kill myself...as my brain had used evry last drop of Cerotonin it had!

    Thats why i stopped taking drugs..because i totally bent my head!!

    I dont regret it, but im glad i stopped!

    Keep safe, investigate your batches and as always keep hydrated!
