I am not comparing coke and MDMA nor am I comparing LSD. I know the profiles of those drugs I am not referring to that. Those drugs have less overlap with MDMA.

I am not comparing coke and MDMA nor am I comparing LSD. I know the profiles of those drugs I am not referring to that. Those drugs have less overlap with MDMA. Have you done MDMA AND heroin/Meth? More important meth. Because these drugs have a huge overlap when you examine the physiological effects. Pleasure, love and bliss are generated by the same chemical.

I have. They're not the same and i dont find meth profound or at all enlighting. Amphetamine based drugs have a very different effect. That's why ecstacy is usually a mixture of amphetamine and MDMA. MDMA for the emotion, speed so you can engage without just being a soft wobbly lovegasm. I don't know of, first had or by proxy, another drug as gentle and wonderful as mdma. It is my drug of choice, maybe once or twice a year because I feel it is unique in the ones I've tried. The risks are worth the reward.

  There is literal overlap, MDMA is 3,4-Methyl enedioxy methamphetamine

    MDMA is in a class of drugs called 'substituted amphetamines' which are a sub-class of 'substituted phenethylamines'. The chemical name for the drug ending in methamphetamine is not an indicator that it has the same effects as the drug methamphetamine. The following is from the 'phenethylamine' English language wikipedia entry as of 2023/01/14: Many substituted phenethylamines are psychoactive drugs, which belong to a variety of different drug classes, including central nervous system stimulants (e.g., amphetamine), hallucinogens (e.g., 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine), entactogens (e.g., 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine), appetite suppressants (e.g. phentermine), nasal decongestants and bronchodilators (e.g., pseudoephedrine), antidepressants (e.g. bupropion), antiparkinson agents (e.g., selegiline), and vasopressors (e.g., ephedrine), among others. Many of these psychoactive compounds exert their pharmacological effects primarily by modulating monoamine neurotransmitter systems; however, there is no mechanism of action or biological target that is common to all members of this subclass.

Meth is a feeling of high alertness and impatients with the slowness of everything. MDMA is a feeling of love for all and just good vibes from all. The alertness of MDMA is overshadowed by the good vibes. Opiates are a feeling of warmness from euphoria, like a good orgasm, that lasts a long time. There is a bit of overlap on feelings but Molly isn't like straight amphetamines and opiates don't feel the same at all. If I had to try to correlate the feeling of these substances to sober feelings here is what I would say. Amphetamines are like the anticipation/anxiety of a big event or meeting a new love. MDMA is like being in love, but with everything and everyone. Opiates are like a really long, whole body, orgasm. Just pure euphoria.
