Gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you've never taken LSD or shrooms... personally, taking them every day sounds nightmarishly exhausing (can't speak to MDMA).

In my experience, these drugs don't mask your problems, they surface/amplify them.

I have taken LSD and Shrooms countless times. I take MDMA multiple times a month as well. I guess the point though, for that example, was more along the lines of: take whatever substance floats your boat as much as you desire to remain in a happy state.

MDMA will defiantly mask your problems. As will heroin, GBH, and a number of others. But yeah LSD/shrooms not so much.

Hey, maybe a little off topic but if you're still taking MDMA multiple times a month i would strongly suggest you should stop. It's known to be neurotoxin, especially in large doses, especially especially when done frequently, frequently being more than once in about 3 months. It doesn't matter what you're supplementing, effective doses of MDMA done every week or two will be catastrophic to the long term health of your serotonin system and cause chronic health issues that will take years and years to resolve, if they ever do.

I don't know you're situation, dose, knowledge, safety, etc. But in the off chance you're one of the many people destroying their future minds with this stuff, i have to say something. Google MDMA Supplementation Guide Reddit to find the best ways to reduce toxicity if you intend on continuing.

I agree, and therein lies the promise of these drugs in therapy. PTSD survivors engaging in MDMA-assisted therapy can finally surface and talk about their problems without the pain they usually feel just remembering.
