Redosing on MDMA

[WrtngCocaineTutorial]

HEllo!

I see it's often recommended to redose 1/3rd of the original dose about an hour after the first dose is ingested. To prolong the peak .



one hour after ingestion is not said as an "absolute" but I wonder if anyone has tried redosing later? If SWIY redose, at what time does he/she do it?

Judging from the graph, I'd think somewhere in between 2-4 hours looks good

Yes, SWIM always redoses at the 2-2.5 hour mark. It just seemed like the right time. SWIM apologizes for not having anything more empirical to back it up, this is purely instinctual. SWIM and SO are not hard heads, so 1 to start, followed by the second at about 2 hours.

Swim usually redoses around 2-3 hours after the first dose and takes the same amount again. He knows it will take about a hour to kick in so times it roughly an hour before he thinks the first dose will be wearing off.

SWIM likes to redose either as soon as he peaks or an hour or so after. It can add a nice boost to the original dose as well as prolonging the peak.

SWIM would be interested in learning the actual science behind efficient MDMA use. Such as how much serotonin is released in relation to the dose size, and when is the best time to redose based on how fast the brain can regenerate serotonin.

SWIM has an idea that could help prolong the MDMA experience, but is not sure whether it would ever actually work, or is even safe to do so. But this is basically his idea:

2 Hours Before Dosing: Consume 100 mg of 5-HTP
1 Hour Before Dosing: Consume another 100 mg of 5-HTP
Consume MDMA Dose
1 Hour after MDMA Dose: Consume 100 mg of 5-HTP
2-3 Hours after MDMA Dose: Consume Second MDMA Dose
8 Hours after First MDMA Dose: Cosume 100 mg of 5-HTP

SWIM's theory is that by taking the 5-HTP before dosing, it would help increase the amount of serotonin present in the brain which would only help to increase the overall experience. After the user peaks on their first dose of MDMA, they would take another 100 mg of 5-HTP to help kick-start the serotonin production. When the second MDMA dose is consumed, the brain already has extra serotonin to be released, allowing for a longer and better experience. And then of course another 100 mg to help regenerate serotonin after the experience.

SWIM has heard quite a few positive reports on the benefits of pre-loading and post-loading with 5-HTP, but has never really heard of anyone taking it during the experience and between doses. Once again, SWIM doesn't know whether this would work or not, and wouldn't recommend it to anyone as he isn't aware of the possible side effects it could cause (serotonin syndrome, etc.). Still, he is interested in seeing what other users think about it or know about it.
