I do not take ecastacy, but I was wondering,
I researched and saw that some people say drink a lot of water and some say too much water can lead to death.
I also heard ecastacy makes it so you cannot tell when you are thirsty.
Which of these is true, and how much water should you drink on ecastacy?

You don't feel that thirsty but you are very hot so thats the main reason they are always drinking water. But most everyone who does ectascy maked themselves drink lots of water cause they don't want to get dehyrated. You would have to drink gallons of water in a very short amount of time to die from it and thats kind of hard to do.

I Dont Take But My Freidns Do And Well From There Experiences Is that You Do Not Know When You Need To Drink So Therefor You Need To Drink To Make Sure
What They Do Is Depending on the "excitement" level there in
they would fill up on water every half hour or so but carry a bottle with them all the time to take a sip now and then
but then again it depends on the level of physical dehydration they get while "dancing"

Ecstacy is a dangerous drug. It is made of a chemical called MDMA, and is used as a hallucinagen and a stimulant. It creates an intense high with a rush of "good feelings". Lots of users think that they can take it and go on and on without rest. However, it causes increased heart rate, dry mouth, blurred vision, stomach cramps sweating, chills and vometing. It causes the salts and minerals in the blood to become dangerously dilluted which can case the brain to swell sometimes resulting in permanent brain damage and sometimes death. It works by releasing a chemical called seretonin from the brain which is the "good mood" chemical, which is why everything feels so good. It is often taken in combination with LSD, and is refered to as candy flipping. Lots of drugs can make you feel good for a long time and can seem harmless, as long as you take them "right", but there is no right way. It doesn't matter how you take it, it could kill you even if you have taken it hundreds of time, especailly in todays "drug market" when people are trying to manufacture their own and sell it for profit, they will put lots of chemicals in it to give you a high, but they are most usually toxic. If you are considering taking this drug, please do your research, talk to somone in substance abuse. I cant tell you not to take it because sometimes people just have to satisfy their curiosity, but lets remember, curiosity killed the cat.
In response to cookies answer, it is not necessarily the water that kills you, and it is not dehydration or overhydration, the brain is swelling due to the dilluted salts and minerals in your blood, andding fluid to a swollen brain will cause pressure to build up, causing vessels in the brain to burst, possibly an anurism and this is what causes the brain damage and death. I have used ecstacy several times, in conbination with LSD and without, it is hard to say no to it once you have tried it, but once I setteled down, got married and started a family, it was time to move on. I now do lots of research, because I needed to know the risks of what I had done to my brain and body, especially once I became pregnant, and I will continue to research and stay informed on what is being used today so that I can better prepare my children for the choices they will have to make. I know that I can not stop them from doing things like this, though I wish I could, the same as my parents could not stop me, but I only hope that I can give them the education they need to make a responsible desicion, in a perfect world, they just wouldn't do it, but it isn't perfect and atleast I am prepared for when the time comes.

Get a predetermined amount of water before the trip. Like when you plan to go out hiking. Know that a gallon of water won't kill you and stick to it. People only die of over-hydration when they don't pee. And, X does worse things than cause you to dance to death. It depletes the serotonin in your brain and can leave heavy users depressed for several years.

its true (the second statement) when you have taken ecstasy, you do not feel the need to empty your bladder. the water around your brain swells and your blood becomes diluted!!
