I took so much MDMA I’d forget to eat — addiction isn’t a badge of honour
‘Everyone needs to get addicted to one thing at least once in their life to prove to themselves that they can break an addiction,’ claimed comedian Rachel Sennott, during an episode of internet show, SubwayTakes.
‘Play with the fire,’ she adds. ‘I was addicted to laxatives for one year.’
It might have been a tongue-in-cheek comment from the I Love LA actress, but her words hit a nerve.
Hundreds of comments quickly came flooding in, accusing Rachel of trivialising addiction.
‘Never disagreed with someone this quick,’ wrote @BBallQueens. ‘How out of touch do you have to be to act like addiction is some cute little quirk,’ @brunolovrr added.
Even host, Kareem Rahma, looked perplexed, saying: ‘I’m gonna… push back on that.’
While addiction might be a punchline here, it’s no laughing matter for those affected by it.
Between April 2023 and March 2024 there were 310,863 adults in the UK in contact with drug and alcohol treatment services. Tragically, the total number of people who died while in contact with treatment services in 2023 to 2024 was 4,022 — that’s 1.3% of all adults in treatment.
‘I took drugs in the morning, afternoon, weekdays and weekends’
Emily Tisshaw, 31, first started taking drugs at parties, aged just 19.
She tells Metro: ‘I enjoyed dancing, going out, being around lots of friends, doing silly stuff.
‘I remember my first MDMA bomb. I was 19 and felt hopeless with the general state of the world, but MDMA transported me away from despair and into a state of euphoria for hours.’
But what started off as a fun habit, soon spiralled.
‘Feeling high was something I chased,’ she says. ‘I did it with friends, strangers, and alone. In the morning, afternoon, weekdays and weekends.
‘The first time I realised I had a problem was when I hadn’t eaten in a few days and I remembered that I needed to eat — not because I was hungry, but because I wanted my MDMA high to feel “better” than it would have on an empty stomach.’
To others, it looked like she was having fun, but during the height of her addiction, Emily lost two jobs in retail. ‘I’d show up late and confused,’ she said.
‘I ended up being unemployed, on sick benefits and destructively depressed.
‘I was taking drugs almost every day (either weed, alcohol, speed, MDMA, ketamine, coke or all of the above). I wasn’t eating much and I slept only when I really needed to.’
Things took a more serious turn when Emily began experiencing psychosis: ‘I’d start hallucinating. I’d hear voices, and see figures in the dark.
‘My thoughts became fixated on delusional stories about being watched, listened to or followed. I even started having conversations with people that weren’t there, thinking that hours had passed when it’d been minutes.
‘I had a few episodes and overdoses and was admitted to hospital several times.’
Emily would often try and kick the habit, but would fall back into the cycle.
‘The last episode I had scared me so much that I felt I needed to stop or I would never be able to escape,’ she says.
After Emily was discharged from the hospital (having experienced another bout of drug-induced psychosis), the NHS contacted her about working with a crisis team.
Out of ‘desperation and fear more than anything else’ Emily agreed and began cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
It was a few months after this intervention that she managed to stick on this path of sobriety.
When asked about her thoughts on Rachel’s take, she says: ‘My immediate thoughts were that she was out of touch. I think addiction is a spectrum and it made me think she hadn’t ever experienced the full width of it. If she had, I don’t think she would’ve said that.’
While she felt as though Rachel’s comment came more from a place of ‘ignorance and inexperience’ as opposed to ‘malice’, it doesn’t take away from the distress she caused.
‘I would tell her to never say that again (or less politely, shut up),’ Emily continued.
‘I would say that addiction ruins lives, families, homes—that people die from addiction. I think her sentiment is that people should experience overcoming something, but I’d tell her to do her research on what that “something” should actually be, because addiction is not it.’
Addiction is not a confidence exercise
Every single addiction specialist Metro spoke with was equally alarmed by the concept that addiction can be an experiment.
Dr Georges Petitjean, founder of WARM: the Workplace Addiction and Recovery Movement, explained to Metro that addiction ‘is not something people try on to test resilience,’ and nor is it something that people struggle with simply because they lack willpower.
He continued: ‘This message is deeply shaming for anyone living with addiction. It ignores genetic, environmental and trauma-related factors that predispose some people.
‘It also overlooks the fact that, once an addiction has developed, there are real changes in the brain that make it difficult for someone to “just stop”.’
Dr Samir Shah, a consultant psychiatrist and Medical Director at Priory Hospital, adds: ‘You cannot predict who will be severely affected by addiction. What may be occasional heavy drinking for one person can rapidly become a life-dominating addiction for another. You do not know in advance which experiment will spiral out of control. Why experiment when we know it can cause harm?’
Metro also spoke with Dr. Giuseppe Pierpaolo Merola, an experienced psychiatrist and psychotherapist, who has worked across several public mental health services. He perhaps sums his feelings best by saying: ‘Nobody is advising anyone to “get run over by a car once, just to check if the bone heals properly”, right?’
Is there such a thing as a healthy addiction?
During Rachel’s SubwayTakes she mentions how the kind of addiction she’s referring to could involve a ‘weird workout routine.’
This implies that not only is addiction something worth dabbling with, but that it’s not always harmful.
It’s a sentiment Dr Georges firmly disagrees with. ‘Language matters here,’ he says.
‘People often use the term casually, such as saying they are addicted to coffee or addicted to the gym, when what they really mean is that they enjoy something or engage in it habitually.
‘But addiction, clinically, is a pattern of behaviour that continues despite harm. By definition, that cannot be healthy.’

Cambridge Satchel is loved by everyone from Alexa Chung to Taylor Swift, and it’s offering up to 40% off top pieces for Black Friday
Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more
It’s long been our indie-sleaze dream to capture the effortless cool of Alexa Chung. And while we may not be able to steal her entire wardrobe (sob), we can channel her signature bag style at a discount thanks to Cambridge Satchel’s Black Friday sale.
The stunning, British-made bags have that timeless style and are crafted from real leather, so they’re built to last.
Alexa famously sported the 11 Inch Satchel on an outing, and the design is down from £185 to £111.
The classic bag, which has also been worn by Emma Stone, is a modern reimagining of the school bag, but with slick updates, like the smaller size and the magnetic closures. It’s also crafted from 100% leather at the brand’s workshop in the British Midlands, and it includes a handy front pocket for easy storage.
The Little One is the smallest version of the classic satchel and is available in a range of colours, including a bright clash of red and strawberry pink that we are obsessed with. One shopper claimed the bag was so irresistible that his wife was even offered the chance to sell it by a stranger during a meal out.
‘I bought this for my wife,’ Rohan said. ‘I just came here to say she gets compliments on this everywhere we go. Someone even offered to buy this off her at a restaurant lol.’
Taylor Swift was once spotted carrying the Twist Lock Tote from the brand, and you can grab the similar Twist Lock Pouch at 40% off for Black Friday – down to £57 from £95. It comes in a vibrant range of colours, including Pink Celtic with Pink Glitter and Flax Matte Python.
For a pop of red, the Isla is a crimson dream, inspired by the Scottish Sporran. It features an adjustable and detachable leather strap and is now 40% off, reduced from £135 to £81.
If you’re on a budget, you can pick up one of the brand’s charming charms to add a little extra flair to your style. The Teacup Charm is now just £12 and makes a perfect gift for any tea lover, while the Shortbread Charm looks good enough to eat.
The Cambridge Satchel also has a repair service just in case you have noticed any wear and tear on your purchase. And it’s not just Alexa, Taylor and Emma who have been tempted by the brand’s timeless style. Lady Gaga, Sophie Ellis Bextor, and Suki Waterhouse have all been snapped out with a bag too.
Plus, these slashed prices won’t last long, so we think you should snap up a bargain while you can!

How long you should wait to test for each STI after unprotected sex
Beyond the risk of pregnancy, casual sex without a condom can open you up to a whole new (and not very pleasant) world of sexually transmitted diseases.
Despite this, only 15% of Brits bought condoms last year, with the UK ranking 33rd out of 36 countries in a Durex study. Yikes.
But even if you are wrapping up, or are in a committed relationship, regular testing is still important, as some infections take a while to show up and half of UK adults don’t recognise telltale signs they may be infected.
Find out how long you need to wait to get tested for the most common STIs below – and get familiar with the symptoms too.
Chlamydia
There were 168,889 chlamydia diagnoses across the country in 2024, so it’s imperative that you get checkout for it.
Dr Hana Patel, GP and consultant for Superdrug Online Doctor, tells Metro you should be tested for chlamydia about two weeks after unprotected sex, as ‘the bacteria needs time to multiply to detectible levels.’
Symptoms mostly include burning when you wee and abdominal pain, according to the doctor. Specifically women may get bleeding between periods, while men may notice pain or swelling in the testicles.
However, Dr Patel notes: ‘Many people have no symptoms at all, which is why testing after unprotected sex is important.’
If you’re worried you could have it but don’t have symptoms you can order a self-test kit (which you can get for free if you’re under 25), but if you do have symptoms, book an appointment at the sexual health clinic or GP.
To test, you’ll need to give a wee sample or a swab to take fluid from your penis or vagina and possibly your bottom. If you get a positive result, it can be treated with oral antibiotics.
Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV)
This is a more invasive strain of chlamydia that develops gradually.
‘Symptoms can appear anywhere between three and 30 days after exposure, but waiting until two weeks after sex to test improves the chances of detection,’ Dr Patel says.
The doctor explains this STI develops in stages, starting with small genital or rectal ulcers that can then lead to rectal pain, bleeding and swollen lymph nodes.
If you test positive for chlamydia with these symptoms, the lab will then test another swab sample from the affected area, or do a urine sample, which can take three weeks. Treatment usually involves a 21-day course of antibiotics.
Gonorrhoea
Again, Dr Patel suggests waiting two weeks to get tested after potential exposure to gonorrhoea, of which 71,802 cases were diagnosed in 2024.
‘Common symptoms include unusual discharge, burning during urination and pelvic or testicular pain,’ she says.
‘Women may experience more subtle symptoms than men, which can make the infection easy to overlook.’
If your swab or urine test proves positive, it’s typically treated with a single injection of ceftriaxone, sometimes combined with oral medication
Genital herpes (HSV-1 and HSV-2)
This one is a little different, with Dr Patel sayying, genital herpes (HSV-1 and HSV-2) ‘should be tested for with a swab as soon as symptoms appear.’
Typical symptoms include small blisters that break open into painful sores on the genitals or surrounding areas.
‘If you have had unprotected sex but do not have any symptoms, you should wait around 12 to 16 weeks before having a blood test,’ she adds.
‘This is because blood tests detect antibodies produced by your immune system, and these do not appear immediately after infection. Treatment for genital herpes usually involves antiviral medication such as aciclovir.’
Human papillomavirus (HPV)
This is the most common STI according to the GP. In fact, 80% of adults will contract it in their lifetime.
Women in the UK are screened for HPV through cervical screening from the age of 25, but there’s no routine test for men.
‘Some strains of HPV can cause small fleshy growths or bumps around the genitals or anus which can be removed with cryotherapy (freezing), topical creams or minor surgical procedures,’ Dr Patel explains.
Hepatitis A
‘Hepatitis A can be tested for between two and seven weeks after exposure because the virus can take several weeks to reach detectable levels in the blood,’ says Dr Patel.
‘Symptoms may include fever, nausea, abdominal pain and jaundice.’
This can’t be tested for at home – you’ll need to head to the doctors for a blood test. However, the good news is, most people recover fully with supportive care such as rest, fluids and monitoring.
Hepatitis B
According to Dr Patel, this is usually tested for ‘around six weeks to three months after unprotected sex.’
Similarly to Hepatitis A, it’s detected through a blood test, with the symptoms include abdominal pain and jaundice, as well as fatigue, although many people also have no noticeable symptoms.
‘Acute hepatitis B often resolves naturally, but chronic infection may require antiviral treatment to prevent long-term liver damage,’ she adds.
Syphilis
This less prevalent STI saw 9,535 diagnosed cases in the UK in 2024.
Dr Patel says you can test for it between four and 12 weeks after exposure because the antibodies need time to reach detectable levels, adding: ‘Syphilis symptoms can include a painless sore at the site of infection, swollen glands and, later, a rash on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet.’
As for the test itself, you’ll need either a blood test or a swab of the sore or lesion, and if you’re positive an injection of penicillin should treat it.
Shigella
Otherwise known as bacillary dysentery, this lesser-known STI has seen a spike in the UK in recent years.
‘Shigella should be tested for as soon as symptoms appear, typically through a stool sample,’ Dr Patel says.
These symptoms include diarrhoea, which could be bloody, along with stomach cramps and fever.
The doctor adds: ‘Treatment focuses on maintaining hydration, although antibiotics may be used in more severe cases.’
Trichomoniasis
This is a parasite that causes an STI known as trichomoniasis, which Dr Patel says can be tested for as early as one week after unprotected sex.
‘The parasite becomes detectable fairly quickly,’ she explains. ‘Symptoms may include vaginal discharge, genital itching and discomfort when passing urine, although many men have no symptoms at all.’
If a swab of the infected area or urine sample determines you have this STI, treatment is a course of oral antibiotics.
HIV
Recent estimates from the Terrence Higgins Trust suggest that more than 111,800 people in the UK are living with HIV. Of these, over 5,200 are undiagnosed and unaware they’ve contracted the infection.
So, it’s important to get tested if you think you’ve been exposed, but the waiting times may vary depending on the type of test used.
‘A laboratory blood test can generally detect infection from around four weeks after exposure, while finger-prick or rapid tests are more accurate from around six to twelve weeks,’ Dr Patel says.
‘These tests detect antibodies and, in some cases, viral antigens, which take time to appear after infection.’
Early symptoms may resemble a flu-like illness two to six weeks after infection, followed by a long period with no symptoms.
Unfortunately, there is no known cure, but current treatment involves lifelong antiretroviral therapy, which keeps the virus suppressed enough to be undetectable and allows people to remain healthy.

Need a new winter coat? Kate Middleton’s beloved brand Hobbs is offering major discounts on their range
Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more
Our thin jackets and lightweight layers may have put up a brave fight, but it’s time to pull out the big guns and wrap up with a thick coat.
But who says heavier layers have to dampen our style? Hobbs is a brand known for its timeless elegance and loved by fashion icons like Olivia Palermo and even the future queen herself, Kate Middleton.
And for Black Friday, they’re offering major discounts across their range, including the elegant wool coats Kate loves.
The Celeste Wool Blend Coat is one Kate has worn on repeat since 2012. You can get it in navy for £284.25, down from £379. It’s available in petite too, as well as sizes 6 through to 22. The Italian wool-cashmere blend feels like pure luxury on the skin, and the removable fur collar is perfect for those extra frosty days.
The Livia Wool Coat is currently down from £379 to £220.15. It’s available in both regular and petite fits, and the coat ranges from size 6 to size 22, ensuring a perfectly tailored silhouette for every body.
It’s designed with sharp notch lapels for a structured finish, is crafted from 100% wool for unbeatable warmth, and has a silky lining. We love the Purple Malbec shade, which is a deep wine-coloured hue that just screams rich. Even if we’re just throwing this coat over our joggers for a quick run to Tesco, we’ll feel like an off-duty model running errands. If you prefer something more classic, the coat also comes in camel or navy for £303.20.
‘Hobbs never lets you down,’ one shopper said in their review. ‘A classic, very smart and an excellent quality pure wool coat.’
For a cosy knit layer, K Middy has also rocked the Lara Merino Rollneck Jumper in a bright pink, and it’s now 20% off and down to £63.20.
It’s crafted from soft Merino wool, which is praised for its exceptional warmth and breathability, and the slim fit makes it a stylish piece for any occasion.
‘An essential basic jumper, great addition to wardrobe, excellent quality fabric design and size,’ one shopper gushed in their feedback.
If you’re on a tight budget, Hobbs also has cosy Ribbed Single Socks for just £6.40, or the Celestial Socks for £8.
The 60-Denier Opaque Navy Tights have plenty of five-star reviews too, with customers saying they’re not only warm but the perfect thickness to avoid laddering.
Or you could spend £17 for the Butterfly Sock Set, with shoppers hailing them as the perfect gift for someone special.
Looks like we’re ready for some winter warmers!

Give the gift of gut health this Christmas as Symprove launches huge sale
Symprove is said to be the UK’s number one gut supplement, which promises to improve gut health, aid digestion and ease IBS symptoms.
The liquid gut supplement has garnered quite the fan base as celebrities including Alexandra Burke, Frankie Bridge, Georgia Toffolo and Lisa Snowdon have sung its praises, as well as multiple influencers.
The liquid gold has been designed by experts to support your microbiome. The shot contains live bacteria that is gut-friendly. Symprove’s liquid solution allows the friendly bacteria to stay metabolically active while it is in the bottle, as well as in the shot, right down to your gut.
The formula uses germinated barley extract to ferment the bacteria, which remains alive and effective as it passes through acidic environments in your gut.
If you are new to the brand and want to see what all the fuss is about, now you can. Symprove has launched a blinding Black Friday deal, which grants new UK customers 50% off their first 12-week subscription.
It is super easy to consume, simply shake the bottle to break up any sediments at the bottom, pour into the shot and knock it back – or slurp at your own leisure. The most important factor is this must be consumed first thing in the morning and on an empty stomach to be most effective.
For a one-off four-week supply it will cost £79.99, while a one-off three-month supply will cost £149.99. Alternatively a rolling subscription will cost £49.99 per month. However, Symprove’s Black Friday sale will slash 50% off the 12-week plan.
To claim the deal all you have to do is enter the code ‘BLACKFRIDAY50‘ at the checkout. But the deal is only available from November 27 to December 1.
There are four flavours to choose from, including original, pineapple, strawberry and raspberry, as well as mango and passion fruit, so you can select your option based on your preferred flavour profile.
