    I grew out of ingesting random, unidentified substances when I was a toddler.

    It's been quite a few years but I've taken both and thoroughly enjoyed the experience with no negative consequences. That said, I'd be cautious about dosage and have never taken more than a couple of pills on the same night out. I can imagine those that take a load of them at once wouldn't always have such a positive experience.

    Downward spiral onto temporary a path of awesomeness maybe.

    Getting off your head sometimes is fun; whether that's on yokes, drink etc doesn't really make a difference.

    You're old fashioned.

    It's great craic and have done and don't bother anymore. Mostly for a lack of good quality.

    Define downward spiral please.

    From what I've seen it's the more intelligent people who take MDMA/ecstacy every month or two. Yes, going at it weekly is not ill-advised but a few times a year is perfect.

    No. People who are on pills tend to annoy the crap out of me and I don't want to act that way.

    Former weed smoker here btw

    I had never wanted to do it when I was growing up but I ended up doing it for a while in my late teens/early twenties. Was definitely good fun and an experience worth having.

    This comment is really interesting to me. Do you think that you are on the verge of going from recreational user to habitual user?

    It's not something that people get addicted to assuming that's what you mean by habitual. He's probably just struggling to juggle normal life with the comedowns from it. That seems to be a common complaint among regular users of it.

    no i was kind of joking really. i do use it quite a bit but it doesn't affect my day to day life. i go to a lot of gigs/raves and do some dj'ing myself so its quite common in that scene but i wouldn't even think about taking it on a daily basis or anything just when i have something on

    I actually don't mind the comedown, I wouldn't be able to work that day though so i would only do them on a long weekend or holiday.

    I would if it was gauranteed pure. Since it's not, I don't touch it or any other illegal drugs. Not worth the physical or social risk.

    MDMA in its powder form is pure.

    How do you know the powder that someone gives/sells you is MDMA?

    Some of it is. There's plenty of that stuff cut up as well. The "one pill could kill you stone dead" is one of the biggest moral panics we had in the past few decades anyway. You're more likely to die after a few pints than you are after taking ecstasy.

    On my old DCU course, nobody did any drugs bar booze and a few guys who smoked pot. When I dropped out and started going to Trinners it was like a whole new world, almost everyone I know on the course do various pills on nights out, and I still don't really get why to be honest.
