"i'd never had a bad E"
Memorials

18-year-old Rachel thought ecstasy was safe until her friend had a frightning expeiance...

"i did my first E two years ago. it was more fun than being drunk.i didn't think about the danger - i'd done speed before and thought that it was just the same. at firat, i only took E occationally, but then i moved into a flat with some dealers and started doing loads more. one night, i took a really strong E after witch i started hallusiating. it was so freaky, i could see out of the corner of my eye and hands everywere. it onestly felt as if my brain had left my head. still, it never occurred to me that E was dangerous. Then, one night, my friend claire and i took an ecstasy pill in a club. after a while, Claire said she was feeling ill. i tried to get her outside for some fresh air, but sudenlly collapsed on the floor.
i thought she was going to die. Luckily, she came round after a few minutes, but we were both terrified and vowed never to touch ecstacy or any other drug again."
