yeh no worries mate i weren't trying to shit in yer picnic basket, and i pretty much think anything in moderation is ok for most people

but, all our swimmers are the first generation of mdma users, the guinea pigs, so no-ones that qualified to give extensive advice anyway

also, as for thinking negatively and screwing with his head, well we are talking about substances that directly affect the brain aren't we, the control centre of our emotions... so to disassociate how he's thinking and how he's feeling from the drugs (someone who ain't) he's been taking is nonsensical surely?

SWIM did molly 6 times over the course of a month and a half. His last roll wasnt even a roll. It had lost all magic and just felt like a crappy adderall buzz. Now he's developed a nervous twitch all over. He figures he twitches about 20 times a minute...annoying.

100th post!

SWIM also has occasional "twitches" (a series of non-painful rapid muscular spasms) though isn't sure they are down to E as they appeared some time after SWIM stopped taking MDMA. SWIM is lucky that SWIMs "twitches" are in non-obvious places that you'd never notice and far less frequent (maybe 3 or 4 times a minute, but there are also long periods where no spasms happen before they re-appear). SWIM presents this as circumstantial evidence and hadn't thought that it might be the MDMA until Stuck's SWIM character suggested it.

SWIM no longer finds magic in there either, Someone who isn't Stuck. (SWIS?). SWIM is curious if SWIS also experiences any blunting of emotions, reduced emotional control or short term memory issues? SWIM knows there are other characters in the world who have the short term memory and reduced emotional control but as far as SWIM knows, SWIM is the only one to experience emotional blunting. SWIM thinks it's likely there are other characters with this who SWIM just hasn't come across.

swiy definately has it worse than swim ^

swim gets occasional mood swings closely following rolls, but everything seems to smoothen out long term, the memory thing is definately a factor tho, and no twitches

swim was in a club and connected with a random etard, the etard suggested watching The Secret and discussed the laws of attraction with me, that alone, was something like a message from god, it was remarkable, as corny as that seems, but I recommend everyone to watch it and it will change your life

trailers can be seen on youtube, it talks about how powerful ones mind is and how one has control over everything that happens in his/her life, and swim related it to drug abuse, the more negative u think, the more it will prove to be true, think positive, make the most out of your rolls and maximise your endless potential to shine! hahahh

People who obsess over MDMA would be extremely reluctant to admit that it causes brain damage. Swim has come to notice that it does mess with short-term memory, like THC, but that side-effect subsides dramatically in the following days. Swim does not think any damage would be permanent unless Swiy takes a dose too large for his body to handle. This is only an inference though, as Swim cannot say for sure.
