1. At Raves

Raves are large parties where techno music and doing drugs, particularly MDMA, is commonplace. Most people at raves do stimulants. Although some users recommend it, doing a drug that could paralyze you or make you unconcious for any length of time is dangerous during a rave. There are usually a lot of people who are not in control of their actions at raves. You can easily get hurt.
