Well, I was 15 when this happened, and still am currently. As soon as I experienced this, I needed to share it with everybody. So here goes, bearing in mind I am quite young and have dyslexia so please forgive me if I am not too good with explaining things.

Recently, I met somebody called Indiana Jones, no lie. It was a few months ago, at a party, and we discovered we have a lot in common. We had taken a few things together over the past few months, cannabis, a little bit of ketamine and tried some LSD together. But, for sure, Ecstasy was the greatest experience of them all. We asked our friend, K, if he could get us a little more ketamine. He went off with the money, and came back with two little golden pills with maple leaves on them. He said he couldn’t get any ket so he just got 2 pills instead, as he knew I wanted to try them. I got very excited about this as I had always been very interested in Ecstasy, and apparently, this stuff (Gold Leaf pills) was the best stuff going round at the moment. And wow. If there was a pill stronger than those Gold Leaves, they would kill! Well, not literally, but these pills were very strong (approximately 160-170mg of MDMA per pill and it wasn’t cut with anything else, apparently). We went and sat in an abandoned park a few minutes away from my house, a place we both knew and could relax in. We did lots of research on these pills first to see what the test results showed, and indeed, it was E positive, with quite a big dose aswell.

The following report was written down as it happened, in my diary. I wanted to note down how I felt at the time, and now I’m writing it to share, I will try and keep it as accurate as possible to my diary but so it makes sense to you.

So, because it was our first time, we decided to cut both pills up into quarters and we dropped them quarter by quarter.

T+0 Me (100lb) and Indi (110lb) drop quarter of the tablet. The first thing we noticed was the crazily bitter taste as it touched our tongues. We swallowed it as quickly as possible, with a tiny bit of water.

T+20 Another quarter is consumed. As soon as we do this, we both said we felt a rush, like a mild head high you get from some cannabis. We don’t know if it was just the thought of taking more, or if the dose had started to take effect… oh well.

T+40 We start to feel a little bit energetic, we play on the swings and both say how fun it is to shut our eyes when we are on them. I know we are practically both children (15 and 16) but this really made me feel like a small innocent child again. We are not really thinking straight. We decide to take another quarter of the tablet.

T+50 Start to calm down. We both sit down on a bench and relax. The sun was very bright, and looked so much more beautiful than ever before. It didn’t actually look beautiful, but somehow, I just became so thankful for it, and I could feel its rays shooting happiness towards me. A massive smile covered my face, and Indi was starting to nod his head backwards and forwards to the music we were listening to (Saturday Night by Borgore). We are both feeling so amazingly happy, we eat the last quarter.

T+55 I blackout for a few minutes, I’m not sure whether I fell asleep or passed out, but I can’t remember those 5 minutes whatsoever.

T+60 I get up, and I can instantly feel this very very weird… feeling. Like, energetic, but my head felt very light, and wherever I looked it took me a long time to focus on what was there. The world would sort of spin around as I looked round, with a delay. It was quite cool, but as this feeling was very new to me, and Indi wasn’t feeling this effect, I got nervous and so we walked home. My parents were at home which was really not too good. My heart was beating pretty fast as we walked through the door, but luckily my parents just said “hi” and left us to our own business. We ran upstairs, and this felt very weird. We felt as if we weren’t stepping on them, we felt as if we were simply floating up them. We felt detached in a way, yet so energetic and full of life.

T+70 We play some call of duty and listen to music, I couldn’t stop looking at myself in the mirror. My eyes kept changing sizes, one was going smaller then the other one went bigger. It was quite creepy, but amused me so much. I started dancing on my own to the music, I got so lost in it. It was such a new feeling, nothing like cannabis, nothing like alcohol, just literally is what it says on the tin… Ecstasy. Me and Indi started hugging on my bed, and just felt so happy. I started crying because I felt so happy, and he was rubbing my head saying “sshhhhh” in a really calm relaxing way that seemed to echo through my head. It was such a nice feeling. I felt so connected.I was feeling so many different things at once, the normal feeling- joy, wonder, pure ecstasy, bliss, and for some reason I felt this great inner warmth inside me, which was like I was a completely new person.

T+80 Me and Indi realise how hot we are and how dry our mouths are, so we go and get some water from downstairs. We walk down the stairs and feels, again, like we are floating. We take it back upstairs, and when I drunk it, I could feel it flowing down my throat. It was so cold and nice tasting, even though it was just water. My jaw was tensing proper badly, so I tried to chew some chewing gum to relax it. It sort of worked. Indi started to feel a little nauseous so I told him to go to the bathroom.

T+90 Indi still hasn’t come out of the bathroom. I go in there to check how he is, and he is… kissing the toilet seat. Lovely. “Indi, what the absolute fuck do you think you’re doing?” I asked right before I burst out into laughter. He then explained to me how nice and cold it was against his burning body, and then I realised he was also hugging it. I asked how he was, and he said he was feeling like it was a bit too intense. I told him it would be ok, he would get over it, it was just the drug. He looked back at me, smiled, then kneeled before the toilet again. I walked out, to hear the door shut and lock behind me.

T+105 Indi is still in that fucking bathroom. What is he doing now? I’m getting a really nice relaxing buzz as I play this game, there’s a certain part that keeps amusing me, when I have to jump out the helicopter and parachute towards the ground. I felt really happy that I was playing the game, I was sitting on the edge of my bed with a massive smile on my head, my brain feeling like it was buzzing almost orgasmic-ly. I was loving it. Indi came back into my room, finally, and said that he thought he was a shop assistant. Here’s exactly what he wrote down in my diary:
“OH WOW! I didn’t feel exactly right so I was totally reading the shampoo bottle to try and calm myself down like a radiator to a cool-aid and then I was like reading it and thought I was reading it to shop customers I looked up and…. WABAM! They are all there in a row! Looking at me waiting to hear the conclusion! Wow, they looked so deep into my eyes. I read it to them and then they disappeared! Not very happy with that one now am i??”… What a dick, bless him! Anyways, we pretty much spent the rest of the experience in my room and then took a bike ride down to town to meet some friends, just as we were coming down.

I got a bit of back ache, but that was the only negative thing, plus jaw tension and getting stupidly hot, but this was calmed down by drinking a few bottles of ice cold water.. I felt great the next day, and still feel great now. I am so grateful I spent £30 on those 2 pills. It’s now about 3 weeks later, and I still feel this lush relaxing afterglow, and I will never forget that feeling we both got. Indi was very happy with it too, and we are going to do it again sometime soon. Great experience, what it says on the tin!
