“e is bad for you

i’ve rolled before and i know for a fact that e fucks your brain up. i took too much my first time and after rolling for two days i literally felt stupider (yes i know its not a word) no joke. it’s a stupid drug and i have no idea why your advocating it. plur isn’t just about e yet have the shit on the left column of your page is about rolling. no offense”

I don’t ever really advocate it on my blog. I never say OHMYGOODNESSTHISISAWESOMEYOUVEGOTTOTRYTHIS. I do give out tips and advice for the people who do roll. I think it’s weird when people try to ignore rolling while talking about raves. It’s there, it’s prevalent. No, not everybody rolls. i’m not even sure it’s a majority anymore. But it’s a significant enough number that if that many people rolled anywhere else, people would talk about it. 

Here’s the thing, i totally and completely respect people who don’t roll, who don’t advocate or support it at all, that’s their prerogative, if it works for them, thats fine, that great even. There is nothing “cool” about doing drugs. Most of the people I hang out with at raves are the sober ones, the straight-edge kids. However, this blog fits into its own niche. There are plenty of rave blogs who tell kids not to roll, who say they wont talk about it or give out advice. I am accepting the fact that some kids roll. Abstinence only education doesn’t work - I am like the nice people who give out condoms to the sexually active teenagers. Sure theyve heard about the risk, but their horny kids and theyre gonna do what they do. Why not have an available option for making it safe? Why not tell them ways to make it more meaningful, so its making love and bonding, instead of just fucking. Thats what I try to do with e.  I don’t think plur has anything to do with e. I even tell people to not roll at raves if they can. I do think its ridiculous to ignore that a lot of ravers roll. That’s why I have the information available that I do. 

As for your personal opinions on e, versus mine. E doesn’t work in the part of your brain that affects intelligence. It just doesn’t. It focus on serotonin that relaxes, and makes happy, which also releases oxytocin - love drug - and inhibits norepenephrine - no stress! - but it really just doesnt affect any of the areas of the brain where intelligence and thought is formed. What you may have experienced was the effects of sleep deprivation (which WILL make you slow), preconceptions you had about e from propaganda, and with less serotonin temporarily, a tendency to see the pessimistic side of things, ie this drug must be harmful, instead of the reality, I stayed up a lot longer than I normally do.  Even if the drug did affect you in that way, its probably because you pills cut with somehting bad. MDMA alone doesnt make you “stupider”.

As for me, well, e has drastically improved my life. I have an amazing group of friends with whom i am able to be extremely open with because of a high level of trust, and my own personal confidence. We have daily debates about, well, anything. Politics, raves, jobs, school, sex, gossip, anything. I have two AMAZING jobs, one extremely easy and fun that can work out whenever I want, and the other as a DJ. E has made me so dumb that I am passing all my class, and got multiple scholarships for college next year, so much so that i now have OVER a full ride. next year I am moving out and living in an apartment with friend for less than $150/month, utilities included. I don’t know if you know anything about rent but thats CRAZY fucking good. I have an amazing boyfriend who i love to death and who treats me like a goddess. We know each other inside and out and have the best relationship I have ever encountered. I’m part of a new start up business and sound company. 

So overall, yeah, I don’t e has ruined my life. Far from it. I’m doing so much better than so many of the “straightedge” kids I know. Hahaha.
