Combinations - Is SWiM over doing it with mixing?

[jbigs2007]

5 and half E pills with 10 shots and 4 lines of coke. I dont think its safe to mix any of those. But SWiM did this saturday. He was pretty high and the next day had to wake up early and felt hungover and his heart was beating fast and was sweating easily. Should he chill out on the doses or are those symptoms nothing to worry about?? and he smoked some weed too I dont really rememeber how much tho.

Yes, you should "chill out on the doses." And also re-read the forum rules regarding self-incrimination.

Alcohol and cocaine is a particularly risky combination, as they combine to form another chemical inside your body which is more toxic than either drug by itself.

Then of course there are the combined diuretic forces of alcohol and MDMA that SWIY would need to take into account for. Then of course the double dose of strong stimulants. Do heart problems run in your family?

Umm oh I thought it just did the SWIM stuff on its own. Well SWIM did a gram of coke one time followed by a 26er of iceberg which took about 40min to drunk cuz SWIMs tastebuds were numb. And didnt have any problems. But SWIM does have a family history of heart attacks.

SWIM is unsure of his limits. SWIM has friends who ate handfuls of triplestack pills at once but SWIM also has friends who went to the hospital after 9. SWIM doesnt know his limits and wonders what can be done to know where your pushing it close. or how SWIM can monitor his heart which is SWIMs main concern.

Then it would be wise for SWIY not to overdo it on any stimulant much less combining multiple stimulants. Just be aware of your body and the clues you have to avoiding possible bad situations. Every SWIM wants to be able to enjoy his or her favorite vice just know how it affects SWIY.

[jbigs2007]

Yes SWIM would have a much better time if SWIM wasnt always sketching out about his limits. SWIM doesnt think coke effects him much. But SWIM is scared to try more because SWIM has done a gram in an hour and didnt feel too high but SWIMs heart was racing pretty fast. SWIM friends tell him when its good coke or not but SWIM can not be sure if its good or not because SWIM has not experienced it enough. SWIM knows more about weed and E.

Don't necessarily take everything your friends tell you then measure yourself up to that. Make your own determinations when SWIY experiences something. If something doesn't seem to affect SWIY the way SWIY's friends say it will, then it probably is a miscommunication of some sort due to the inherent nature of drugs. They are very personal things and we will use words that are impossible to measure to describe things we like. Also it is wise to space pills out. The on the low end a month spacing is good between using MDMA, though I know many avid fans of MDMA who will swear at me for not mentioning not waiting atleast 3 months between uses to ensure that you don't become tolerant and that each experience is truly magical.

Overall I would recommend that SWIY researches things to know the pharmacological effects of the substances that SWIY uses, aka, the effects that happen internally that may not be attributed to the "high" of any certain drug. This way SWIY will know the things that are harmful to the heart and also readup on average doses for things and try not to overdo them, usually the gains will but be substantial enough to be worth it. One example is that one of SWIM's friends that uses MDMA often and whose body is naturally very tolerant of drugs only takes 2-3 pills. That is someone very prone to needing large doses of drugs for the normal effect. SWIM only ever takes 2 e pills for a roll and has a very intense time each time regardless of the pills. It's good that you are cautious about your body.

Also it could be good just to go to the doctor to get a checkup about your heart. It is a very legitimate reason to ask for a check-up based on family history and this will do wonders to ease your mind, just to know your condition. My friend just had a very bad trip because she thought she was going to have a heart attack then that idea got stuck in her head the whole night and it took at least an hour of re-assuring her before she could enjoy the rest of the trip. You never know when the subconscious stress and uncertainty could spike up.
Peace.

No point doing cocaine and MDMA in combination. They pretty much block each others effects.
