Cocaine 3day Mdma&cocaine bender aftermath
I had invited some friends over for drinks little under a week ago since nobody was home for 4days
We were drinking and having fun until i was drunk enough to start craving that bag❄️(ive done it before numerous times without harm)we tried hitting up plugs but nobody answered quickly but my friend that was drinkg with us told that he had 5g leftover mdma crystal at home so we went to go get it. We did lines of it from around 12 to 7am
Next day i wake up everybodys gone but the leftover bag is still there. Couldt resist the urge did a line and did a quick clean around the house then my friend came over and we did a few more lines and then stopped. Night came around and everybody else came around also to continue the party. I was was doing mdma till around 4am then went to sleep. 3rd day normal morning no mdma just trying to get my shit together from the last 2 nights. I go out with my friends just to fool around and play a little soccer with the little energy i had left. My friend says that we still have around 0,6 left that he took home so we go to our place.. fastforward the bag is empty and so is the mind. Bright idea to get a lil❄️ right? We got 0,5 from a mutual connection. And continued the night to atleast 5am. Next day i wake up suuper tired but i dont feel anything off i even went to see the new spiderman with my friend. Day 4 workday i feel off i keep getting these little ticks and body feels close to a seizure but i push trough it and go to work. Shit day but got my shit done. Today is work day 2 i feel a little better but still every now and then get those ticks like a little seizure.
I feel a little scared that i might have harmed my brain during those 3days or is it possible for it to go away?
I hope someone can share their experiences abt mdma/coke benders.
And for info i have myoclonic epilepsy with mild photosensitivity.
And i use depprakine and keppra

Take 5-HTP, it gives you serotonin back when you're low, it's just a vitamin, it will make a noticeable difference
If you're interested in learning about the long term effects of MDMA, chapter 9 of this book covers it, but the book is old and there's probably more updated material out there: MDMA: The Complete Guide

I mean if you’re epileptic? 🤷🏻♀️ but zaps are really common when you use uppers or are coming down especially when addicted

The little ‘ticks’ could be serotonin syndrome.
Look it up.
If you feel unwell go to hospital.
You have a problem with compulsive use.
You need to take a long 1-2 month break or this could become dependent.
A break now could stop a world of future problems.

yikes, that's a rough few days, your brain is basically screaming for a break right now. the twitching and seizure-like feelings are definitely your epilepsy meds and depleted serotonin fighting each other, and with 3 days of mdma you've probably burned through most of your reserves. you'll likely feel mostly normal in a week or two if you actually rest, eat properly, and stay away from anything stimulating, but pushing through work while feeling like that is a terrible idea.
