Ecstasy is a stimulant drug that causes users to experience hallucinations, making users feel euphoric. The active ingredient in ecstasy is called MDMA, which is available in different amounts in both capsules and tablets, ranging from easily detectable to nonexistent, depending on the production batch.
Ecstasy is often mixed with substances that are harmful to the body, such as floor cleaners or pesticides.
Sexual consent means that we can freely decide to participate in sexual activities. This consent must be clearly agreed upon between both parties before starting any activity involving sex, and must be able to change our minds at any time.
However, the effects of drugs can impair your ability to judge and make decisions. Therefore, before letting someone join your hi-fun or before you join someone else’s hi-fun, everyone who joins should set boundaries on sexual activities, especially what can and cannot be done during sex.
Remember, sex without the other person’s consent is rape, and rape and sexual assault are crimes.
If you don’t know how to tell your partner, listen to this song by Milli before the hi-fun.
If you are the one who organizes the hi-fun, you are responsible for making sure that no one is forced to join the hi-fun without their consent.
Ecstasy is usually found in capsules, tablets or powder.
Tablets come in a variety of sizes, shapes and colours and are often stamped with different symbols on them, so users often refer to the drug by its name.

Your body is going through a tough time, too, so you should take care of yourself. Here are some tips:

– Don’t let yourself get dehydrated. Always drink enough water.

– Take care of yourself, stay comfortable and safe. Take a warm bath, hang out with friends, take a nap or watch a funny show on TV.
– Relax with some soothing music. This playlist is a great way to chill. Give it a listen.
– When the medication starts to wear off, you may feel a little emotional. Remember that it’s okay to cry, and it can help you feel better. Why not let Annie and her unicorn friends help you? If that doesn’t help, call a friend or ask for help here.
If you plan to use any drug or substance, do it safely. It’s your decision as to what you’re going to put into your body, but whatever you choose, make sure it’s safe and has the least impact on you and others.
Here’s some advice for you:
– Set boundaries for yourself and stick to them.
– Don’t let others force you to use drugs.
– Avoid mixing or combining drugs, or if you do, make sure you know the risks first.
– Make sure you know what drugs you’re taking and how much.

There are over a thousand drug reports and thousands of visitors from around the world. However, the information on the website is not medical information, so use your discretion.
– Eat before you party and stay hydrated.
– Be careful not to drink too much while using ecstasy. Ecstasy can make it difficult for your body to regulate its temperature, so sip water at all times.
– If you’re going to have a wild night out, leave your ATM card at home and set limits on your spending. And don’t forget to save money for the fare home.
– Tell a close friend you trust beforehand what you’re going to do.
– Don’t drive your own car or motorcycle if you think you’ll definitely be high that night.
– If you’re feeling high but driving your own car, leave your car at the shop and go home by taxi or GrabCar, then come back to get it the next day when you’re sober. Or you can use the YouDrinkIDrive app that will send a driver to drive you home.
– Set your close friend’s number as an emergency number in case they want to pick you up on a day when you’re high and alone. Apple phones can set up speed dials to emergency numbers immediately. If you have an iPhone, don’t forget to use it to its full potential.

If you use ecstasy in conjunction with sex, you may unlock your sexual drive so that you dare to do things you never thought you would do when you weren’t on the drug, or things you really didn’t want to do. For example, Ohm, when he was sober, always made sure that the man he was going to have sex with wore a condom. But when he was on the drug, Ohm allowed someone to penetrate him and ejaculate inside him without protection, putting him at risk of contracting STDs and HIV.
If you regularly attend Hifun and don’t wear condoms, you may want to consider taking PrEP, which can help prevent HIV infection. Find out more about PrEP here.
