Title: MDMA for relief
Post by phishphan on Nov 24th, 2003, 1:31pm
just a thought,,,,,
Anyone ever get a few days relief from eating MDMA?

Whenever I do it, I get about a 3 day relief from all symptoms...


Anyone else????

3 days --- WOW - GREAT!

just think of the PERMANENT relief you'll have when your heart stops or your brain is damaged irreparably due to a seizure!

know a couple of people that have 'expired' because of ecstasy use

Perhaps try the mushees???
I mean after you stayed of the other stuff for a while ... you wouldn't like to get them mixed up , right?

Interesting effect though ... must have felt like heaven  ;;D

This is probably totally stupid, but it seems to fit under this thread...

How about medical (cough) marijuana?

Not a druggie at all, just wondering....

I tried marijuanna once to abort - big mistake.  It's like my body was wrapped around this huge black hole filled with pain trying to suck me in through my head, only turning me inside out through my brain first.

Chris, I wouldn't try pot. Too many folks here have said it will either trigger a CH or make one worse.

Maybe for migraine but not for clusters.

WOW, I didn't even know what MDMA was.

I smoke weed sometimes (DON'T JUDGE) but never during a cycle, I think they might trigger a CH for me, not sure but don't wanna take the chance.

worst ch of my life.  Took 2 trex injections to abort after that.  And that was hard to do because I was in incredible pain and stoned off my ass.  I'm thinking I know there's a way to get rid of this, wtf am supposed to do...........uuuhhhhh.

Take MDMA for 3 days of relief.

Take some more MDMA for permanant relief.


Also known as dead.

Post by BarbaraD on Nov 25th, 2003, 5:46am
Found some weed in Jamacia that worked to abort (immediately), but they had little doggies in Miami, so I couldn't bring it home. This "homegrown" stuff around here never worked.

Didn't know what MDMA was, but if it's as bad as people are saying, don't think I'd want to try it - even for 3 days. Kinda got fond of being around to aggitate everyone.

Get off that s**( and try the shrooms.

I'm stickin with tiny chocolate donuts... butt each his own.

There are serious studies underway on this stuff to find positive uses for it.
http://www.maps.org/research/mdma/protocol/litreview.html

The small print on it's neurotoxicity, while admitting inconclusive data, sounds like they have enough evidence to warrant worries about it frying yer brain....the researchers are bein very cautious and issuing some grim possibilities to the guinea pig volunteers.

The scientists out there may note that it certainly seems to mess with seratonin.

If only rats could talk!

Title: Re: MDMA for relief
Post by phishphan on Nov 25th, 2003, 5:59pm
My point is,,,
How can you say LSD, mushrooms, heart pressure pills, imitrex or any of that other shit we take to control the pain is any better for us then X.
I have never heard of anyone dropping dead off a hit of X. Maybe a kid who eats 7 and dances there ass off, and forgets to drink water. Believe me 1 hit of X is no more dangerous then a dose of acid or a quater of shrooms.
The fact is we all know that takingwhatever we do to control our own personal pain cant be healthy over the long run. We dont care, we just want the pain to go away.If you say you do care your lying, because thoes would be the people who didnt take anything to control there pain.
So please dont "try" and lecture me about use of one drug and then turn around and endorse the use of another.
Thats just tacky.

I for one will not pass any kind of judgment.

I do have personal experience with Ecstasy and clusters. Ecstasy is my all time favarott recreational drug!!!!
I have had it stop a cluster in its traks!! Then about four hours later I will feel a new attack coming on. Then take one 50mg imitrex pill to abort. The attack goes away and the Ecstasy is kicked back in by the imitrex. (Needless to say I now no longer take E while in cycle)
Kind of a never ending circle. My opinion is that Ecstasy does nothing for clusters. In fact in my personal experience Ecstasy will bring on a cycle early if I use it more than 2 or 3 times a year.
DougL

As with all drugs it’s a personal choice.
DO! YOUR! REASEARCH! And treat your self responsibly!!!!

Post by Callico_Kid on Nov 25th, 2003, 6:18pm
I don't endorse the use of any drugs per se, but the study I have done of MDMA, particularly among kids using it for a high scares the bejesus out of me.  The basic difference between MDMA and some of the others mentioned is that the damage done even by a small amount of MDMA is totally irreversable.  When LSD or shrooms bond to the receptors in the brain they are there for a period of time until the effect wears off, much like seratonin.  When MDMA bonds to the receptor it actually burns it out, giving a rush of good feeling as it releases seratonin.  However, after the high is over the receptors DO NOT HEAL!  MDMA is also thought to be a cause of premature alzheimers symptoms in users, often occuring as early as the mid twenties.

The million dollar question!

If I knew that what I am taking has negative long-term effects then no, I'm not going to take it.  I don't give a shit how bad the pain is, I am not risking my life for a PF moment.  Don't assume that all medications will affect us all in an adverse manner.

Who the hell is "we"?   >:(  You don't know me or probably most of us that post here.  How the hell can you make these assumptions?  You know what?  I do give a shit!  Guess that makes me a liar?

Take all the X you want, I know nothing about it.  Since I know nothing about it, I will make no attempt to make shit up to justify my position.

Awww gee, phishphan.

Just because some of us don't agree with your use of ecstasy as an abortive, now we're "rude and not very welcoming"?

C'mon, give yer head a shake!    With comments like:

Not welcoming?  Puleez!  This is the most support you will ever get for CH.  Consider the rest of world will tell you to take an aspirin, at least people here listen and offer support.  Just because people don't agree with X as an abortive.  People here don't agree on alot of stuff, but that is what makes the world go round.  Right?  What did you expect?  Did you want everyone to jump on the X bandwagon or what?  Come on, give us break.  We are looking for answers, support, and understanding.  If we don't agree on all things, then so be it.  Families rarely agree on things.

Post by chronic_chic on Nov 26th, 2003, 9:58am
I'm new to this board, but just a thought based on my research in psychology a few years ago.  We learned that ecstacy CAN kill in one dose for some people.  The truth is, you never know, so just be careful.  Also, ecstacy does burn a permanent hole in the seratonin receptors in the brain as mentioned before.  This causes an [/b]irreversible[b] depression that cannot be helped by any form of antidepressant therapy including SSRI's, tricyclics, MAOI's or any other known treatment of depression.  It is known that 70% of people in psychiatric hospitals for depression-like syndromes have used ecstacy during their lifetimes and reached that point of irreversible depression.  I'm not out to scare, but this certainly stops me from using it...whether for fun or to get any type of relief from headache whatsoever! :)  But best of luck to you in finding what really does work.  I'm not a judger, I just want to be an informer!

I didnt ask if anyone wanted to try X....I didnt ask if anyone thought it was a good idea, I didnt even ask if people agreed with X as a recreational drug....I simply asked if anyone ever took it and got relief....

BTW...this is getting quite humerous...Thanks for making my boring hours at work more interesting..

Point well taken.

Well, in answer to your question then....NO, we don't think it's a good idea.  There have been folks here who have tried it before and we jumped on them, too.  It's just too risky.  I believe the reference was made that you may as well drink the cleaning products that you keep under your sink - pretty much the same toxicity risk!  Please don't experiment with it, ok?

So....how 'bout we all just http://www.deephousepage.com/smilies/ignore.gif and just agree to lose the developing 'tude, gang?
