What does a comedown feel like?

Hey guys

I'm writing a story and i want to include drug abuse, so what does a comedown feel like?
I'm not sure what my character is going to take yet, possibly ecstacy.

Questions:
What was your worst comedown ever? What did you take?
Sum it up using three words.

Don't write about what you don't know, we can't encourage the use of drugs so you get my point.

Absolutely numb.

Just numb. No energy. I spent all dead lying in my mates bed staring at the ceiling, watching a dot move. At 6PM I *had* to go home, was like a marathon.

Totally numb, and no appetite whatsoever. The thought of food isn't even there. Not even asleep, just flat. No energy, but not like you're going to sleep, just like you cba to move.

Or think.

And if you grind your teeth the night before then the back of your mouth with hurt like a mother******, and you will feel the OUCH from it.

What do you expect from someone that is stupid enough to have taken drugs? :smile:

don't know what drug it will be probably ecstacy.... please. at least do some basic research about drugs before writing about them, otherwise your story will just lack depth. Decide which drug then how they feel, different drugs have different effects

Its like the complete opposite of how you felt the night before... if its particularly bad, you feel like everything that you felt was so amazing and wonderful is actually rubbish, and you feel just generally low and bad about yourself. As well as completely drained, both physically and emotionally.

^^This sounds familiar...
Aching jaw, zero appetite, slightly raw lips maybe from gurning so much, paranoid and probably just want to avoid people, you'll startle yourself if you look in a mirror because of BIG eyes like saucepans, wondering if you're still.........you. Also the "what am I doing with my life" thoughts, just looking forward to tomorrow or the next day as you know you'll feel better then.

I'm encouraged that I can barely remember what it's like nowadays.
