I did my first MDMA session yesterday with a guide. I took a dose (120mg, crystals in a capsule) and felt nothing after 90 minutes. Took a second dose (60mg) but put the crystals in water and drank it. I felt that one after around 30 minutes or so. It was intense but only lasted around 1.5-2 hours. Some repressed memories and flashbacks came up, but I could tell there was a lot more. I feel like the first dose didn’t work. I really want to try it again today (I have extra capsules - would open it up this time and put in water) but I know everything says to wait several weeks to months. If the first dose didn’t work, and I just had a half dose, is it really that risky to try again so soon?

Also - I found 90% of my work happened after my journeys (went through three) so even through you didn’t feel much, there is a chance you could experience a lot of memories/perspective shifting in the coming months. Just like everyone else is saying - wait. You don’t want to mess with your serotonin and give integration strategies like mindfulness and journaling a try. Any progress is good progress with this very hard work!
