Just wondering - can MDMA be the sole initiator of serotonin syndrome? I think SWIM was experiencing it a couple of weeks ago so I'm curious.
It's usually when you mix MDMA with other drugs, and sometimes stupid people mix those drugs in pressed pills which can cause it. I have taken over a gram of molly in a night, 200mg doses, and never got close to anything like SS. If you read up on it, it's caused when you mix meds. In most cases it's because you are mixing a MAOI with something that shouldn't be. I mixed moxy and molly, within 20 mins I was violently puking for about 10 hours straight. I lost my mind, I could barely talk, just enough to let my husband know I was ok, I couldn't get up and walk for most of the peak of it, it was the worst and scary visuals I have ever seen, my room melted around me everytime I opened my eyes and when I closed them it was too frightening and overwhelming. I had utter confusion and mania, my stomach made everything foamy and gross and it was hands down the worst experience of my life. If your symtoms were anything like that you might have had SS, and you wouldn't be smiling about it.
some of the symptoms of serotonin syndrome can actually be symptoms of being high on mdma such as sweating and increased body temperature. I know theres been a couple times I ate several really good pills and it made me sweat balls for real even though it wasn't hot. I don't think it was serotonin syndrome it was just so much mdma. What actual symptoms did you have, I would think serotonin syndrome would have more severe symptoms.
I think you're right, it probably wasn't S.S., the days following the event I thought it might've been because I was so spooked. I never had this happen before. Took the pills, about 2 hours later started puking all over the place. I felt like I wasn't all there, like my friend told me I said that I forgot we were listening to music, etc (it was blaring so I definitely heard it). I had slight hallucinations. Soon after that I got a fever going and I was shaking and still yaking. I started feeling pretty drowsy so my friend was trying to keep me from closing my eyes in case I passed out. I'm just hoping it doesn't happen again.
I'm sorry but i have been rolling for 10 years now and have been looking at pill reports for years and have never seen any type of ssri's or any other similar types of meds in pills.
sounds like you took too many. One time i did 3 rolls that were really good and was really fucked up and was sweating bullets, pouring sweat even though the AC was blasting and it was probly 68 degrees in there. I had a temp of around 102 and jumped in the shower with totally cold water. As soon as I got out I immediately started sweating again! I was really out of there. The pills eventually wore off and I was fine. With those pills you really only needed one to roll face.Taking too much mdma can cause symptoms similar to those of serotonin syndrome. In a sense it is releasing too much serotonin but you'll be okay when it wears off. Sounds like you were okay just make sure your body temperature doesn't get into the danger zone. 102 is fine I think, i get a slight fever when I roll normally but I think 104 or 105 is the danger zone and you would need to go to the hospital.
I need to start carrying a thermometer on me haha. "Guys I'm rolling, measure my temp!" In all seriousness, that seems pretty messed that not even the AC could cool you down. You're lucky you had a shower near you, does a shower feel good when you're rolling?
From what I remember it did feel good. If I hadn't been rolling I'm sure it wouldn't have. I don't know how much mdma was in those tabs but they one of my friends said he took 1/3 of one and rolled. One of the best pills that ever came around. I'd take just one and couldn't look at anything without everything shaking like crazy. eyes just would not stay still at all. I should have known 3 of these was a little unnecessary.
