Recently, me and a good friend picked up some pressed ecstasy pills from my friend's plug. I didn't know the plug and had never taken presses before (only crystal) but I trust my friend who is the mutual connection, and he says the guy tests his pills, so I didn't assume any harm to come out of it. The next night, me and my friend decided to take them, starting with half a pill each. Once we were about 45 minutes to an hour into this dose, we decided it wasn't hitting hard enough and took another half a pill each. Once the second dose hit, I did feel a decent high definitely resembling molly but I was way more energetic and didnt have as intense social/empathogenic effects (some people say this is common for presses) and the friend I took it with didn't feel much except a large energy boost, although a lot of drugs affect him in strange ways. Because of this, I assumed the pills were some sort of cathinone, most likely mephedrone (4mmc) which I've also done previously but in a low dose. Me and my friend were both unsatisfied with the high so we drank a few beers and smoked some weed. The rest of the night is a blur in my memory but because of the combo with other substances we both ended up pretty intoxicated and impulsively took one and a half more pills (totaling 3) each, some of which we crushed and snorted. We ended up staying up all night and I, now incredibly intoxicated/out of it, decided to end the night with some ketamine at home at about 5am, which I repeatedly took small keys of. After this, I passed out in bed (not sure if I slept or not). I had some sort of hypersexual/degenerate nightmare episode passed out in bed, which was the first strange/adverse effect I started to realize except for being incredibly fucked up. After this, I woke up at 10am cold sweating, incredibly nauseous, and shaking pretty bad. For the entire rest of the day, I felt like I was on something akin to adderall - I was still euphoric (but with intense episodes of anxiety that got worse throughout the day), constantly had to pee, super fast resting heart rate, tremors, jaw grinding, etc. Since ecstasy pills are commonly laced with meth, I started to think that I got laced because meth can have a duration up to 24h for first time or irregular use, but later I looked into symptoms of serotonin syndrome and they line up as well. These symptoms persisted into the 2nd day after use but much more managable. Could it be possible that I was laced with meth, or is it more likely that I just overdosed on molly and gave myself serotonin syndrome?
