Ecstast-related freak-out and hallucinations.
To begin with, I was unable to find a previously made topic that applies to this, much apologies if I somehow managed to miss it.
This past weekend, swim went out for a night of e and clubbing with 4 friends. They each bought 4 tabs from a friend. They each took their first tab around 11:30, got to the club (a familiar environment, they'd been there in the same state several times before) and began the evening. One of the girls with swim had started coming up when she began freaking out. Like panicking and insisting on going home (she had only taken one tab). One of the other girls (R) tried to calm her down in the bathroom (swim wasn't aware this was going on until after the fact) but it didn't work and she ended up getting a drive home before 1am.
The night continued, swim continued taking half tabs as normal to keep up the high (which was, swim admits, strong... but certainly nothing uncomfortable or out of control). The atmosphere in the club was nice... there was an excellent DJ and great vibes all around. Then, the girl (R) who had tried to calm down girl #1 started freaking out (I believe she had taken 3 at this point). Swim took R to the bathroom, locked them both in a stall and just talked to her as she panicked and puked. R was very flushed and seemed to not understand what was going on. Swim gave her some water (not too much) and then took her to a calmer spot in the club where she just talked to her as she continued to panic and even puke a couple more times. R was also grinding her teeth WAY more than normal. After about half an hour, swim was able to get R to a place where, while she was unable to dance (too much stimuli) she was in a very emotionally open and content mental place. She and swim just sat and talked for several hours about everything until she was finally able to dance again (probably around 5am).
They then danced until the club closed at 6 and then began walking home (the other two went their separate ways... they were both boys and they were fine throughout the night). Swim wanted to get a ride home, but R insisted on walking, saying that she'd be sick if they had to get in a car. So they began the walk (it's about 20 minutes) and along the way home, it seemed that R was having very vivid hallucinations. She talked about seeing people and things that were not really there.
Both R and the girl who went home super early were OK in the end. Swim did not have any negatives with her roll whatsoever. So, my question is, would swim be wise to advise these girls not to do e any more? Also, swim has a few leftover pills from the night... would she be wise not to touch them? Also, both these girls have been a little bit... shall we say "strange" on e before in situations when swim was not... nothing major, but on the come-up, they'd get uncomfortable, not like to be touched and not want to talk. Any/ all insight on this situation would be much appreciated.
