    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.

          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.
