“Because of the low price, I switched to 3-MMC’’
Sanna (22) used 3-MMC for the first time four years ago at a birthday party. Now, she uses it almost every week and sees it more and more often among other young people.
“The first time I snorted 3-MMC was four years ago at a friend’s birthday party. The effect of that first edge was milder than expected. But after the next sniff, I experienced a euphoric feeling with strong desire to stay awake for longer. And also, the strong urge to immediately start using again, the substance does not last for that long. I now use 3M once a week, or once every other week. At parties or at someone’s house.
“Even if I have it at home, I don’t have the urge to use it again
“Lots of young people use drugs in our village, 3-MMC is certainly very popular here. After XTC and MDMA, 3-MMC definitely takes third place. It is becoming more readily accepted than coke or speed. You’re less aware that you’re under the influence then you would be after taking XTC of speed, for example. I don’t suffer from teeth grinding or dilated pupils and experience few symptoms during or after use. Expect for the sniffing itself, that burns your nose. And you can’t sleep easily, especially if you used it shortly before. Look, being under the influence, you don’t get tired and that is just as much a positive as a negative of 3-MMC. That, for example, you can chill for longer and you only go home after ten hours of partying. During corona, there were house parties where people who were under the influence of 3-MMC where sitting, talking in groups. One group on the stairs, one in the hallway. All of them are in deep discussion with each other, you get absorbed into each other’s stories, have deep conversations where the time flies by.
I buy the powder from my regular dealer. The quality is good and consistent. I don’t know anyone in my environment who is addicted to 3-MMC, but I do know people are addicted to coke or speed. Now, I use maximum one half to three quarters of a gram per night. After that my party is finished. Even if I have it at home, I don’t have the urge to use it again. I’m happy to wait until the next party.”
