MDMA is a brain poison (i thought the term was 'neurotoxin' but apparently spell check doesnt think so). If you have a personal position on using substances responsibly I dont think rollin once or twice or on odd occasions will harm you but its a very dangerous drug but you dont want to over do it (especially on shitty e). Always makesure that you're popping quality cause people will put ANYTHING they feel like in them shits
MDMA is actually a very safe drug and it is not easy to OD on if used correctly......... However it is often used incorrectly as described in my previous post regarding MAIOs. The biggest problem with pill is not MDMA. It is everything else. Eg. PMA and other MDXs that are used to simulate the affects of MDMA and remain undetected by sniffier dogs. Some of these MDMA derivatives are very dangerous. The other problem you get with pills or any other powder or home made tablet is the substances they use to cut them with. Most of these substances are harmless (caffeine, baby powder, corn starch etc.) however when a pill maker gets a shitty batch of MDX they often cut it with other low grade drugs, chemicals and cleaning products to try and simulate the affects of MDMA (Also some pills are cut with glass. Glass is used to cut the stomach lining and make you think that they are stronger than they really are. For this reason I would never recommend snorting, shelfing or injecting pills. As I said before if you lick you pill and it does not taste as it should DONT TAKE IT. You can also buy pill testers on the internet. These are ok but only tell you how much MDMA is in the pill. They can’t pick up most of the items used to cut pills.
Having a pill from time to time is unlikely to cause any problems (If it is MDMA) most of the current research points in this direction. One study done recently showed that a dosage of 4mg of MDMA for every kg taken every fortnight for 8 weeks had no noticeable short term affects on memory or serotonin production. (This crap about ice-cream scoops from the brain is just media hype and doest not even make sense if you understand how MDMA works. Also one of the most referenced studies regarding MDMA causing Parkinson’s is also total shit. After the paper was published they realised they had been testing the affects of Meth not MDMA. Sadly this is still quoted as an MDMA study and not a Meth study). This all said no long term affects data has ever been collected for the use of MDMA. The longest study to date only goes back about 15 years and that is not long enough to understand the long term affects of such a drug.
Do your homework if you are going to take any kind of drug. Illegal or otherwise. Don't believe anything you hear in the media, from friends or on forums like this. Including what I am saying. Read some independent medical research papers and then make your own mind up. There are a number papers out there you just have to take the time to search for them. But if you are thinking of taking anything thing, it is well worth the time it take to understand exactly what you are putting into your body, what the risks are and how you may be able to mitigate or reduce these risks..
