Stupid Mistake - Ecstasy use

As a depression sufferer I would heed the advice to pop some pain killers but avoid the lengthy sleep thing. It can and does lead to further depression in many people and worsen it in existing sufferers...
 
Sigh.. Reading your post gave me flash backs on my days...
Really a very very very very crap feeling :sick:

I'm the last one to talk, but if you want your Cilift to work properly, don't drink.

I thought you could not drink while on 'happy drugs' (Antidepressants )?

You can, but it interferes with the medication. Alcohol is a major depressant.

^ This. Anyone with depression shouldn't drink on their meds. I have seen firsthand what booze and anti-depressants do to an otherwise stable person: not pretty at all.
 
Yup, i have been through it before. It is not a great feeling, but you should be back to your normal self in a few days. A lot easier said than done, but just try relax.
 
surprised you even drinking alcohol with the medication you taking. I get anxious side effect from just taking a valoid. :D

now acid I hear will give you flash backs for many years, or so I've been told. A friend claims every time he get an major adrenaline rush he starts tripping.

Oh god, that's fine, yeah. Consistent and heavy drinking will basically make the drug not work.

Ahhh that would explain my one ex girlfriends crying after a drink or two for no reason.

Yeah, will definitely not be taking anything in conjunction to my normal prescribed meds after this. Was a real eye opener. Also won't be drinking as much again either. Thought I had to live with this for life, huge scare.

You experienced a hectic comedown, that's all.
 
After reading this thread, boy am I glad I've never touched anything more than a cigs and beers. The experience you describe OP does not sound pleasant :wtf:

I'm rather surprised by the amount of people constantly on some kind of happy drug. No judgment tho .. its just that apart from medicine & the odd sleeping tablet it's not something that I've been exposed to in all my years.

Having said that .. I did experiment with some stuff and I have to admit my stint with E, actually it was MDMA, was one of the best experiences in my life. I've always been overly responsible, so not neccesarily in the 'oh look at the pretty colors' party way that you'd assume but more on a conciousness-altering or spiritual level if you may. I still think it helped me to realise who I really am .. to open up my mind possibilities and to 'find myself'.

Just saying ..
 
It's just a hangover, but you should be careful about mixing recreational drugs, legal or illegal, with medications.

You should try an alcohol hangover.

I heard that someone on PCP can get shot hundreds of times and keep walking, throw cars at the police and even fly.

Hi guys - firstly I know what I did was stupid and will never, ever do anything like that again but here it goes.

On Friday night I felt slightly unhappy and decided to go out with some "friends" I'm not generally a big drinker but I had quite a lot to drink, I was also offered ecstasy and stupidly took it. I pretty much only remember flashbacks from the rest of the night. I am on 30mg CiLift antidepressant and take 1mg Risperidone which I have been taking for a month now and they have been working great. (when I said I was sad on Friday night it was really not that bad and actually just wanted to have a beer or two because I almost never drink(

The problem I woke up on Saturday feeling extremely anxious to the point where I only want to lie in bed with my eyes closed and feel to shaky from the anxiety to do anything. Sunday was very much the same and Monday was marginally better. I went to a GP yesterday and for a lump in one of my glands ( completely unrelated and not really stressed about it) and told her what happened, I also mentioned that I made an appointment with my psychiatrist. She gave me some slow release Xanor 1Mg until I could see my psychiatrist which was today which told me this shouldn't be permanent and gave me 2 weeks worth of urbanol.

What I would like to know is if this is normal and will I feel this way for the rest of my life? I feel a bit better today but I'm scared that could just be the meds and that I have ruined my life completely? I really couldn't cope living with the anxiety I've had over the past 3 days.

Sorry for the long post but maybe someone here has some experience and could help.

Thanks in advance.

Did you tell the doc you took an e?
 
Sarcasm said:
Yeah I did, I'm just worried that all the effects haven't worn out yet.

Surely I shouldn't be feeling edgy and down anymore...

When I used to take e, the next day if I could I'd just sleep the whole day.
It's been years since I've done anything like that.

I've been sleeping a lot, the anxiety has gotten a bit less and comes in stages now, also feeling pretty depressed. The paranoia of this lasting forever is driving me pretty crazy too.

Read this it'll explain what ecstacy does. Your brain stores certain chemicals and releases them over time. Ecstacy releases everything stored up. So it takes sometime for your body to return its natural chemicals to normal.
