HOW ECSTASY CAN BE TAKEN:Different Methods
First off, there is no 'right' or 'best' method. It all depends on what you're looking to get out of your roll. Someone who values a lengthy roll will have a different preferred method than someone looking for a more intense experience.Eating the pill
This is the most common method... swallowing it whole, like you'd take an Aspirin. Kinda stating the obvious here, I think. This method is one of the safest. The onset is slow, but it will last longer than most methods. It's not quite as intense as some of the others. Having eaten previously can lessen the roll and nausea is a possible side-effect -- this is true of any method where the ecstasy must pass through your stomach.The next three are variations of this method.Chewing the pill
Chew it up and swallow. Be forewarned -- ecstasy tastes NASTY. Most people can only manage one or two crunches before they have to swallow. A few actually chew it up all the way. Bleach, this method makes ME gag just thinking about it! The benefit over just swallowing it whole is that it's already partly broken up so it hits you quicker.Letting It Dissolve
Under your tongue, that is, where those big vessels are. I've heard people on here say they actually do this, though I'm not sure how they stand it. It sounds horrid. But it would reach the bloodstream quicker, and would be more intense than swallowing or chewing it.Parachuting the pill
This means crushing the pill up completely, putting the powder in some thin paper or a little bit of tissue, twisting it closed, and then swallowing the thing. This will hit you quicker, and you're spared the gross taste that comes with chewing or dissolving it under your tongue. It will probably last a shorter time than swallowing it whole, but the roll is more intense.
Railing the pill
This means crushing a pill into powder and snorting it up your nose. Some people prefer this method because the roll is more intense than any method involving the mouth. You make use of more of the chemical too, as more gets to the bloodstream rather than being absorbed elsewhere. The downside is a considerably shorter roll and enduring the awful 'drip' down your throat after inhaling.Plugging the pill
This means pushing the pill up your ass and letting it dissolve there. It's slightly uncomfortable, but more chemical makes it to the bloodstream than snorting or any swallowing method. Very intense, you don't lose any length.
Here is how it works - put on a rubber glove if handy or a condom will work too, lube your finger (it makes it go in easier but not needed), put the pill on the tip of your finger (make sure you take a shit first), push the pill and your finger up to about your second knuckle...the pill should kind of just get sucked up. You may want to crush your pill up and put it in a capsule to make it break up quicker - but just using the pill works fine. You may want to lie on your side or stomach for 10-15mins so the pill does not come down.
The pill will hit you in about 15-30 minutes average, but depending on the person it can take up to an hour.
It's amazing - it's like 2 pills in one.Smoking A Pill
Smoking a whole pill by yourself is a waste in most people's opinion. First you would have to smoke an ENTIRE pill to roll off of it, and a lot would escape just from the smoke rising up and also whatever you exhaled. Besides being a complicated and wasteful method, you wouldn't roll any better. Unlike many drugs, E doesn't actually get you high... it causes a process to occur in your brain (releasing serotonin, blah blah...), and that process takes a little time. Smoking E might get the chemical to your brain faster than swallowing it, but it wouldn't speed up that process at all.Now, having said that, there is ONE varient of smoking a pill that I find worthwhile on rare occasion:Smoking pot laced with XTC
If you only have like one pill between 3-5 people, then you might want to crush it up over a bowl and smoke it -- BUT DO IT LIKE THIS. Crush the pill into a fine powder. Take the powder and split it into equal parts, one little pile per person. Pick someone to go first, pack the bowl, and pour their share of E on top of the weed. Let them smoke the WHOLE THING by themself. No passing. Once they kill the bowl, repack and repeat with the next person. Trust me, this is the best way to do it -- otherwise, there is no way you're going to get everyone their fair share of E. Plus, the headrush of hitting a bowl over and over without a pause can let you feel the E better. Remember, this won't feel like you're rolling. What you're aiming for with this method is a very loved up, light-hearted, and talkative pot high.Slamming a Pill
Also called shooting or banging, this means injecting MDMA directly into the bloodstream with a syringe. This is the least common method, but it's been tried and it does work. It is the definitely the most intense... *too* intense, in most people's opinion. The duration of the roll is much shorter than any other method. If you've never taken anything through IV before, this is NOT the drug to start with. This is definitely the most dangerous method. Along with all the usual needle hazards, there's the question of purity. Pills are cut or bound together with some nasty shit you DON'T want going directly into your bloodstream. If you don't know how to filter a shot, please don't fuck with this.HERE ARE THE RESULTS FROM ABOVE:Swallowing or chewing a pill absorbs about 40-60% of the pill into your bloodstream.
Snorting it allows about 50-75% absorbtion into the bloodstream.
Plugging (shoving it up your ass) gives about 60-90% absorbtion.I get my Free MySpace Layouts at LayoutStreet.com
