How do I know if I have MDMA induced depression?

Original post in this thread

Ok so starting around June this year I discovered the incredible MDMA experience. After taking it my first time, I took it roughly every 3 or 4 weeks with the occasional 2 week wait. I know that doing it in this frequency is ill advised but I was under the impression that I could somehow handle it. Fast forward to the last time I rolled (2 weeks ago) and the crash afterwords was absolute HELL. I was completely drained of energy, felt physically ill (nausea and soreness), and felt completely depressed.

Now, I have had a history of dysthymia, but the feeling I had after this crash was in a complete other league. My cognitive process was completely negative and I couldn't stop thinking about suicide and how shitty everything was. Fast forward to now (2 weeks later) and I still feel extremely weak (albeit able to make it to the 2 classes I have a week now) and the negative cognition hasn't abated even minutely. Usually after a roll i experience maybe one day or two of tiredness and a lowered mood but nothing even remotely close to this reaction.

To get to the point, Do you fellow redditors think this is solely the effects of MDMA abuse, or a combination of the MDMA crash with preexi…

My usual dosing regimen was a 100mg cap followed by another 100mg cap an hour and a half later. I realize that re dosing, especially at that high of a dose, is incredibly stupid and probably contributed to my current problem, but I guess the only thing I can do is learn from my mistakes

That is not a high dose, and re-dosing a D+1.5h is perfect. Not that I am encouraging you to up your dose or anything. Don't overuse MDMA though. Give yourself lots of time off so that you can keep the magic. And MDMA has not been shown to produce ANY neurotoxicity if you maintain your body temperature. That, along with antioxidants, is key to protecting yourself.
