If I’m bored and don’t have anything to occupy myself I will just start biting my hands
Never take MDMA. You will eat a chunk out of yourself for real if you have a habit like that.
Supplementing magnesium before and during + testing your MDMA to make sure it isn't cut with meth should help a ton
Yeah but nobody tests their MDMA they just take it and hope for the best, at least that was my experience in punk circles for years. I've seen some people with biting habits like this turn into fiends and one girl ate a literal chunk out of her hand the size of a proper bite mark and I don't think it healed without a scar so I give this warning everywhere I see it.
You should gift people test kits for Christmas/birthdays! They definitely won't take it to parties or music shows but with enough pleading they might use it at festivals or in their own homes haha
Not that you asked but in the PMC/labor aristocrat circles I run in, people are pretty gung ho about testing everything and try to buy direct from labs
Haha yeah none of that shit at the places I used to go. Generally they wouldn't be "parties" but there'd be like THAT house in every town that the punks all go to. At any time of day there'd be 10-15 people in the place and some will be doing something while others are doing music or videogames or w/e. We would go to all sorts of places all over the country for gigs and end up finding a house just like it everywhere. Kind of like the open punk house with people just rolling in and out with no one really caring who was coming or going. Good fun really but pretty unhealthy lifestyle with how "hardcore" the culture would get about not caring about health.
That was my house until like, may. It's pricey as balls but one bedroom apartment ftw at the moment.
Punks won't and probably a decent amount sre okay with doing meth. Also meth and mdma are way closer chemically and expereientially than club kids would feel comfortable with
nobody tests their MDMA
back in my rave days we always reagent tested everything we could get our hands on. half of our group were complete drug nerds and the other were veterans who had been into techno since the mid 90s and had seen everything, so we always made sure to know what we were getting ourselves into.
ofc it's fairly easy even with really clean stuff to get into chewing mode. it just happens sometimes towards the end of the night when the body is losing minerals. staying hydrated isn't enough on its own, as drinking as much water as you need on MDMA also means you wash out minerals and that's when your muscles start acting funny. we always had magnesium on hand for that reason, at festivals we also packed isotonic sports drinks in case somebody got really twitchy. Sodium and potassium levels play a role here as well, it isn't just magnesium depletion.
I had a nightmare once where my arm was made of gummy candy and I ate the whole thing down to my elbow
Then I woke up and couldn't feel my arm, pure terror shot through my body and I started freaking out until I used my other arm to feel that I still had both and realized that my arm was asleep
i was in a dream and imagine me and my arm walking on a beach... behind us there were 2 sets of footprints... but at one difficult part there was only one set of footprints... i asked my arm why they left me at the difficult part... my arm turned to me and said "who do you think carried you in the difficult time bro?"
I knew a mormon dude who growing up thought he was an elf. Like a lotr elf, I remember him pointing out at the forest ridge and saying he saw a satyr and trying to convince his high-school crush that she was secretly an elf princess and they should run away together. Then he did his mormon tour of duty thing, last I saw him he was still an elf and also a devout mormon.

I guess it's not weird? I know a lot of women who like biting their SOs
Please no ban idk how to phrase this without making it seem misogynistic
it's almost 2023 and we still have to deal with this "women love to bite people" stereotype smh
This is so funny, it's making me actually fucking laugh reading it. I do it too lol
I know that I used to bite myself very hard as what we would these days understand to be a form of self-harm back when I was in elementary school. Sometimes I will still tooth a knuckle if I am nervous, or stressed out, but mostly I don't do that sort of thing anymore.
I bite myself but only when I'm stressed or anxious, which is pretty often.
You know, it really is all relative to me. I mean, I've lost half my teeth and so the fact you can still bite yourself says to me you must have pretty good teeth so hey, good for you.
You know if you're neurodivergent in some way? Sounds like a stim to me.
It is absolutely not disrespectful in the the autism community to self diagnose, for the record. Not in a "I took one online test and it said I'm autistic" way but in a "I've spent six months now getting increasingly deep into autistic people's descriptions of their own lived experience and the more I hear from them the more it sounds like I'm autistic" kind of way.
Anyway, I didn't want to just ask if you're autistic because that can be rude, but like, just from what I've read, my first thought was that you seemed like you're probably autistic. Neat.
Odds are that you're very high masking if you made it to adulthood without finding out, which is my story as well. My main stim is picking at my fingernails, which I've done my whole life. Anyway, I wish you a good journey into learning more about yourself.
I'm pretty sure I'm neurotypical but I still stim anyway, I like swaying and rocking when I'm into something.
