Haven't done ecstasy since I was about 21. I'm too old for that shit now, the come downs are horrendous.

I've done MDMA 4 times in my life, spaced months and years apart. Hadn't lost the "magic" yet last time I tried, over 4 years ago. Waiting for the right occasion to roll again.

All in all, I'd recommend having at least one taste to anyone with an open mind who hasn't ever tried. Do the right stuff (Good Golly Miss Molly), do it at the right time, and do it with the right people. Just preload a bit and never mind the blues.

We have a yearly tradition where we usually extend two to three times. Never lost its magic in over five years.

When we started the tradition I took more than the years afterwards which that was pretty dreadful and fucked me for two weeks (bit over half a gram per person split into multiple doses - can not recommend).

With 150/75/75/75 the come-down is just fatigue but no bad mood and merely a couple days of hang-over.

With 150/75/75 just sleepiness during the come-down with nothing whatsoever the day after and anything under 150~200/75~100 doesn't even have a come-down for me.

Once a year for some 5 years with no loss of magic or depressive symptoms of any kind, so anything less than that should be generally safe without "loss of magic".

No such thing as too old, but I strongly agree with the notion that you should find "the right occasion" and the right people and environment for it.

For reference, I've never taken it in a club or any of the sort. Always either while taking a walk outside in nature or while sitting around at home with close friends. Not much movement or any dancing, so generally less stressful on the body, much less to no dehydration and easier to stay hydrated.
That could possibly take the edge off of the comedown, don't have any comparison. But I've literally never had a crash except for that one night where I went full retard to test the limits.

I also recommend not taking pills since it's impossible to dose them accurately unless you've pressed them yourself, which nobody does. They're also often spiked with amphetamines and other garbage that makes comedowns much worse in general, regardless of circumstance.

Stay safe.

Drugs don't work on me in general.

One Glastonbury the old crusties I was with got increasingly irate at my total indifference. I did five times more MDMA than anyone else to cheer them up and then carried on reading my book while they ground their jaws to dust and their eyes swivelled so far into the back of their heads they never popped back.

Smoking or drinking strongly dampens the effects of MDMA. Pills also often contain all sorts of random crap, so unless you had crystals I'd give it another shot. Also double check your dosage for your specific weight. Heavy people need more MDMA, something that you don't have to consider with most drugs whatsoever.
