my husband wants to try ecstasy and I am terrified?

Question

I don't like telling people what to do and what not to do BUT my husband and I want to start a family in one to a couple of years and I am terrified him taking E could effect our future negatively. I am researching, so I can show him that it does have risks. Any tips and experiences are highly appreciated!
Thanks.

no, he doesn't want to take it regularly but try it at a special event where it would come from a safe scource....yeah, i know whatever, I don't care where it comes from. Thanks for all the input guys! I am sure he won't take it if I insist and I sure will!

Thanks everybody for your support.
After talking with my hubby, he came to his senses and realized it is indeed not worth it. I showed him some weblinks which listed all the possible risks and I will also rent the movie that was recommended. Thanks guys!

Answer 1

So yeah,
I'm gonna tell you from my experience.First off I dabble in drugs from time to time(recreational), and there not something that you need to introduce to a drug-free relationship.One or both of you could get addicted to ecstasy, they have many different bases for the drug, and that's what makes them so dangerous.They have speed-based tabs,cocaine-based tabs,heroin based tabs(steer clear!).All of these bases are highly addictive, and can be potentially dangerous to sometimes fatal.
As for the relationship, If your a young couple and your "experimenting" together know this:
This could make or break your respect for each other. Some people trip harder than others and cant handle there self;which can cause some problems.I had a friend once that took a tab or two and 45 minutes later they were huddled on there bed with a blanket over there head...sad.
If you do decide to go through with this,make sure to drink plenty of water, and have your body stocked up on vitamin C,because that's what the ecstasy seems to feed off of.Ive heard that when you do x the fluid around your brain reduces and that's why you'd want to be stocked up on water.
If your terrified and you already think that it'll effect your relationship in a negative way that fallow your gut feelings.
there always right.

You can talk till you're blue in the face, you won't convince him. You can try crying, but he'll just rebel against you.

Instead, let him figure out how bad it is. Rent the movie "Requiem For A Dream". It will scare the cr@p out of him! Read my review below.

I once saw a movie reenactment of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. At the end of this short, yet powerful speech, there was no applause. People were so profoundly touched by the wisdom and insight of his words that the whole crowd just stood there transfixed, like statues, in quiet awe and contemplation.

This is how I felt after seeing "Requiem For A Dream".

In this movie, four people get involved with drugs. At first, drugs actually appear to be improving their lives. I thought this was going to be a lighthearted, pro-drug movie. However, that is just a clever lure because soon after, drug use takes a very, very ugly turn in these peoples' lives.

Just as "Fatal Attraction" would make someone think twice about cheating on their spouse, "Requiem For A Dream" will probably scare the hell out of anyone, whether they have taken drugs or not. It's like seeing "Jaws", and never again being able to dive into the ocean without a little tinge of fear.

If High Schools showed this movie, drug use would plummet. The effect of seeing these lives forever and completely ruined by drugs is shocking and tragic. You will never think about drug use the same way again.

Forget horror flicks.... this movie will REALLY SCARE YOU !!!

Answer 3

Ok well is sounds like your husband wants one last harrah of irresponsibility before he goes ahead and has kids. Not uncommon but here is what E does

Ex, E, Rolls, Ecstasy, AMT's, BTTs, etc.. Are derived from a drug called MDMA. Problem is that they are cut. The blue ones are sometimes cut with windex, white ones sometimes with bleach but mostly you're talking about the fallowing main ingrediants to cut with

Cocaine
Speed
Acid
Percs
Vikes
Ludes
Cough medicine
Heroine

The effect it has is caused by a sudden and harsh release of all of your seritonin and endorphines at once. Thus leaving you with a feeling of Euphorea. The imediate risks are dehydration, over hydration, hyper dementia **aka a bad trip** heart attack, and stroke. The long term effects are brain damage, extreme depression, bi polor **since you're messing with the chemicals in your brain that control your moods** Schitsophrenia, hyper enemea **in some rare cases depending on what it's cut with** kidney failure, liver disease, heart desease, retardation, suicidal tendancies, some of the other short term effects it has would be leaving one's self open to rape, or at least a bad choice in sleeping with someone who may have something worse than he would ever know about until it's too late.

Why people do it....it feels really good, the senses are in overload and all of it feels good. But usually not worth the risk or the money. There are testing kits available as well as any more info on drugs located at RaveSafe.Org

If he starts taking E regularly, I'd leave him. I'm not going to live with a drug abuser and get caught with his stash in my house. Further, I'd turn him in. And I'd tell him this before he makes his decision.

Maybe the police or Narcotics Anonymous have someone who can come and talk to your husband, recount some of the stories he's seen about people on E.

What kind of a knot-head man wants to get hooked or high or dead with ecstasy? That's absolutely stupid! What does ecstasy have that your husband craves? Is he looking for adventure, abandonment of the real world, what? Is there someone at work or someone he hangs out with who is peer pressuring him to try it? You better get that relationship cut off, now.

Call Narcotics Anonymous and see if there's a counselor who can help you through this. Honey, I just can't express how upsetting this is to me, let alone to you.

I really thought that kids that made it to the marriage age would be responsible upstanding not-stupid citizens. I thought they'd be mature enough to know what drugs could do to you. My thoughts are with you.

Answer 5

Did your husband and your persons have a stable adventure on the pills you took? Your description would not sound like ecstasy in any respect, even a nasty ecstasy adventure. MDMA form of forces you right into a great approach, so that's unusual for persons to have that form of undesirable adventure. additionally the undeniable fact which you point out hallucinations i hit upon bizarre. MDMA could reason easy seen distortions, yet won't reason finished blown hallucinations. i ask your self whether according to probability the pills you took weren't MDMA in any respect, yet between the numerous ingredients on occasion took place as MDMA, such because of fact the 2c-chemical compounds or piperazines. inspite of the undeniable fact that, in case you have been the only one which had that form of destructive adventure, it became into in all probability in basic terms a fluke. you will in all probability be great next time, i does not difficulty approximately it plenty.

Answer 6

Hey Girl, I am a recovering drug addict who has done allot of E...I've been sober for 3+ years... and the side effects and damage I've had to deal with are NOT fun..
Panic attacks, depression,liver, kidney damage.....,.and those are just the physical effects... not to mention all the emotional damage caused by my poor decisions while on E...
I cant even begin to explain all the negative results!
and dont forget that E is made from MDMA...but b/c the cost to make pure E is just too expensive most pills are cut with anything from meth, rat poison, ant-freeze, laxatives, LSD......

Answer 7

The main risks are legal.
This is a controlled substance and getting caught buying, or using, can have serious repercussions.
As far as something like "genetic damage" from drug use ... that is utterly bogus and was a bogey man created to scare kids off from using.
The big risk is a record. Nothing to fool around with.

Answer 8

OMG!!! don't let him do it!! My husband and I did it before we had kids and it's so expensive and after what i seen on the news I swore I'd never do it again... This 17 year old girl had the brain of a 80 year old Alzheimer's patient.
people mix all kinds of bad stuff to make that... You are his wife and tell him you don't approve and not to do it... this could save his life... I know a person that died from E!! SERIOUSLY!!!!

Answer 9

I don't know who has less sense...your husband for wanting to use drugs (he needs to grow-up and realize he is a married man with responsibilities)...and drugs are a dead-end road anyway....

Or you, for announcing this to the world, the over-see'ers on Y! Answers, and the government who takes note of what takes place/is said on the web...where NO info is confidential...

Besides, I would never, ever be married to someone who uses drugs. Nor ever contemplate having a child with a drug user. If he gets arrested...dont bail him out either!

Texting lets you control the tone and establish what kind of conversation you want to have. Learn here https://tr.im/ZeTfA
This is probably the most important part. With texting, you can stop and think about what you want to say to your ex at each step of the way. Instead of reacting emotionally, you can take your time, figure out the right thing to say (I’ll give you most of it), and be strategic with your ex without saying something that you’ll regret.
