Comedown - First timer; experience & advice

[pulse_uk]

Someguy (SG) first experienced MDMA in the crystal form last Friday at a birthday party, and took one small, slighty less than a pea sized crystal and a few dabs from a shared line later on in the evening. SG's high was great and he had a wonderful time laying around on the landing in a big hug pile with other friends. SG woke up in the morning feeling very hot and flustered, but solved this after having a cool shower and going for a walk and getting some food.

SG is now posting this 2 days after the party and is somewhat anxious that he still isn't feeling 100%, after taking quite a small dose. This was mixed with a fair amount of alcohol however so perhaps this could be a reason? SG did experience some strange hallucinations when he closed his eyes before sleeping last night, some a little scary, but nothing that prevented him from sleeping (mainly due to him feeling very lethargic).

SG has some questions; what is the best way to alieviate his 'hangover' and how long will it take for the jaded feeling, slightly fuzzy vision and mildly sore headaches to disappear?

SG only asks this as he had a bad experience with Marijuana in the past, where after doing a bottle bag he went competely numb for a week. SG also became quite anxious earlier, as a first timer would do I'm sure, and did break down briefly as he felt guilty for doing MDMA and felt uncomfortable with his general jaded state.

SG thanks you for reading and wants to discuss anything from the above further.

So if SG doesn't feel completely right after a week should he seek a doctor? SG is still having stages of calm and then fairly bad anxiety and has a hard week of uni ahead, so he would hate to feel like this all week. Any advice to speed up the recovery process? He has been drinking plent of water and urinating quite frequently, yet still has stomach cramps, mild twitching, loss of appetite, mild fuzzy vision and a 'tight' feeling in his head/mild headache.

SG may well be overreacting but he just wants to make sure everything will return to normal.

You need to give your brain a chance to produce more seratonin that was depleted after you did MDMA. Some people take up to a week to get to a normal level depending on how much they took and how their brain behaves. Nothing much more you can do besides drink lots of water

Actually yes you can. Go and buy a vitamin called 5-HTP. Its a precursor to serotonin. Will help your levels recover much faster. Also get some vitamins in general and drink up.

If you eat 5HTP before and after rolls, not only will you roll harder but recovery happens much faster.

You'll need to find a specialized pharmacy though. Wall mart doesn't have it and I don't know about wall greens. Its not the easiest vitamin to find because its really meant for few purposes, like Xtc lol

I think she found it at a special store that has herbs, vitamins, medications so look around. SWIY's bottle is like a perfect vitamin, it has C, B and 5-HTP. All you need after a good night.

SG has woken this morning, still feeling the same and with lingering headaches and anxiety. SG is having his friend take him to the doctors today to see what can be done. SG will keep you updated on his progress and thanks you for your support so far.
