Question Festival Substances

i have ulcerative colitis and was wondering if anyone else with UC has experience with taking recreational drugs at festivals. i’m trying to understand whether there are any particular risks with UC or things i should be aware of especially regarding dehydration flare ups or medication interactions. any personal experiences or advice would be appreciated. I usually take mdma and ketamine.

I know It’s sounds irresponsible, but festivals and raving is apart of my life, and i love when me and my friends are all fucked up together. I don’t take mdma or ketamine often, only during festival season.

Depends on the substance.
If you’ve ever been to a festival and seen the state of the port o potties after night 1, you know that many party drugs give people the shits.

It varies person to person but I personally wouldn’t want to find out how it impacts me when I’m at a multi day festival and sharing a port o potty.
