MDMA Peak Duration

[stalefishpeter]

Okay so I have done E on 3 separate occasions. The first time, nothing
really happened, besides being really awake, so I'm assuming I got
ripped off with a meth/caffeine pill or something of the sorts.



The next 3 times were different though, and man, was the experience
amazing. The thing is, I've noticed that I get this absolute amazing
body high and just phenomenal sensations (which I identify as my peak)
for only 40min-1hr, followed by just a nice little high. I've read
numurous reports and aren't I supposed to have a 3-4 hour peak? The
worst part is that come down, and I wanna do more of it, so I end up
popping in pills at only 1-2 hour intervals.



Is this the way E is suppose to be? I would love to have that initial
sensation for a longer time, like 3 hours. Is it just the pills? I know
for certain that there was MDA in them, as I was seeing some
hallucinations like smoke rising from my guitar... but isn't MDA
supposed to last longer? Also, after about 3 hours of taking the drug,
sleeping is no problem.

It takes ages for me to come up off pills so I've learned to become patient. They don't effect me in the typical way for some reason. It's very odd. I drop at the same rate as my mates but it takes longer for me to come up than it takes for them. Then I peak for nearly 2 hours while they're all coming down. Bizarre. I guess everybody's body functions in a different way when on them.

[Apparatus]

For me I usually peak about an 1 hour after I take the pill and then it
will last for about another hour. After that I just still feel
really energetic for another 3 hours. I always come off my roll
before my friends do even if we are taken the same amount at the same
time.

[stalefishpeter]

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly how I feel.



The thing is, Erowid says that you should peak for 3-4 hours.

[Unsolved]

When I first started I must say I peaked for at least 2 hours min., more likly 2 and a half. It was great, but they were really pure pills. So it sounds to me like something is wrong here. Maybe I'm wrong I know everyone is different. Maybe your pills are a little weak or the quality of what your getting is mixed with a lot of binders. Try taking one to roll and another at your peak. You might be able to get a longer peak out of it. Feeling energetic for 3 hours after and not feeling great just sounds fishy to me. That's a long come down without feeling euphoria. Just my opinion!!! Oh and one last thing sleeping after only 3 hours defineitly points to some problem. Extacy mdma should be keep you up all night. That's what it's made to do, dance all night long.that's what it does to me. Try a new source trust me. Just doesn't sound right to me.Edited by: Unsolved

All i know is (ive done it twice) - That my peak lasted about 5 hours
the first time, the second time about 1-2 hours. That was 2 weeks later.



It may also have to do with how much sera you have in your noggin.

I found this at www.thegooddrugsguide.com:

"The effect builds quickly, coming on in waves within the first two hours, strengthening with each pass. A lightness of mood and relaxation gives way to waves of physical pleasure, euphoria, openness and empathy to others around you. The awareness of touch is strongly heightened. The muscles relax.

The peak arrives and then the effects last 4-6 hours, with a gradual tapering come-down in the last two."

When i first started to use e, my peaks were around 3 hours, but no im lucky if they last more than an hour. Tolerance is a bitch.

[prospero]

It takes me 40mins - 1 hour to come up followed by a two hour peak, and a further 2-3 hours of pretty good high which isn't much less than the peak. After 5 hours I start to come off pretty rapidly.


The actual 'come-up' is the best bit - 5 minutes of overwhelming euphoria and feeling as randy as hell!

[stalefishpeter]

Wow thanks guys. Yeah by the looks of it, it must be the pills.



Would the quantity of MDMA make a difference though? Like would I peak longer with a larger amount of MDMA?

[whitespider]

You just need the correct amount that will release your sera. The bigger you are, normally you need a bit more.

[Mezza]

I don't find find that increasing the dose increases the duration, though it sure does increase the effects!!

i think it just depends on how long you have been rolling and how often. when i first started dropping i would roll for about 8 hours on a good trip an peak for about 4 hours. now i only roll for about 5 hours and peak for around 30 minutes

I have yet to find a roll that does not give AT LEAST 3-4 hours of effects. Sometimes the effects are better than others but that would explain the differences in the ingredients. Nevertheless, I only roll about twice/year (2 weekends; Thurs, Fri., Sat.) when I go clubbing on the "guys weekend out" excursions.


I came across an excellent site that explains, with pictures, just how MDMA acts on the brain. It also sheds light on why/how people develop a tolerance to the drug. It is a slideshow...

^hheh, i remember helping Emanuel out w/the neuropsych on that one back in...

i reckon i have consumed over 1,000 MDMA doses over the years.

at 2mg/kg single dose pure MDMA lasts 6 hours.

first 45 min to hour is waiting.

hours 2-4 peaking.

hours 5-6 coming down.Edited by: nanobrain

today i took a "number one" at about 10:41 in the morning, all i felt was a little energized, an when i walked a little awkward, but not even a billionth of what it was like to roll when i rolled on sunflowers, maybe the hydrocodones interfeared w/ the E, maybe someone here knows

[gregus01]

my first experience with e i was told the pill was on the weak side. i bought two and double dosed. For anyone who hasn't done e yet, thats probably not a good idea, but i had a great time. that lasted about 5 hours. since my first it seems to last 3 - 4 hours.
