Okay, I'll tell you. The Celexa will most likely block the effects of the ecstasy. Abstain from taking Celexa for 5 half lives (not sure how long this is) before the roll to get good effects. If you're worried about WD symptoms, start tapering off 10-15 half lives before and hopefully the WD effects will be minimal.
5-6 hours after you take the Ecstasy, take a Celexa. It may prevent neurotoxicity.
After that, keep taking Celexa like you would usually.
As for everyone else who may read this post- I went to a rave last night. The way these parties are demonized is absolutely ridiculous. It's just a bunch of kids having fun. As for the ecstasy use, can anyone show me any evidence that links ecstasy use to depression? Not theoretical bullshit. Actual studies, or large bodies of anecdotal evidence, that correlate use with depression.
I think it's important that negative effects of drugs should be looked at outside of the scientific and medical contexts. We need to ask questions like, "Are ecstasy users less happy in general than people who have never touched the drug?" I don't know for sure, but I would guess that their quality of life is similar.
