I thought long and hard about writing this. What will people think of me? Will my family be disgusted by my actions and hurt that I did something so reckless and stupid?

I decided to share it in the hopes that it actually might save someone’s life. In the hopes that the people who need to see this article see it, read it, get it ( I mean REALLY get it ), and back away from this killer drug.

Yes, I said it. It’s a killer drug.

But before I go on, I’m sure many will read this and accuse me of overreacting, being melodramatic, or flat-out lying. This is my experience. No holds barred, no making shit up (why would I want to anyway?), and my exact detailed account of how I felt during my ecstasy trip.

If you had a better experience, write your own story.

I didn’t go in blindly

I did research. A lot of research. Curiosity had me watching YouTube videos and reading blogs on ecstasy many months ago. I wanted to know all about it, the good and the bad. I mean, a drug so popular, how could it be so bad?
