We just had this article on an MDMA death

Which I also didn’t know was possible

That’s weird. The boy aged 14, thought he was buying 3 capsules @ 100mg each. But was sold 10.

The boy took all 10 =1g. I’m assuming the boy thought 300mg was dosed out into 10 caps.

Didn’t know 1g had a risk of death. I’ve had multiple friends take really good MD at this amount and been ok. Yeh, it’s ridiculous, especially since myself and others tell them it’s not good.

This is more of a maths/education issue and really disgusting behaviour from that drug dealer from the fact he’s selling to minors.
