* Always have water with you on the dance floor. Drink some even if you're not thirsty. A good idea is to take one of those large bottles of mineral water with you. Don't hesitate to share your water: soon you might need some too ! But be careful about doggy water. Here is a letter from someone who got sick from water at a rave/
* Establish CLEAN water taps, exit points, the location of the paramedics and of course the RaveSafe stand, before you start to party.
* Because of the good vibes some drugs like E create within people, there unfortunately tend to be people who realise the potential for manipulation. If you don't know the guy from a bar of soap, don't just go off with him.* One of the most important things, if you are going to take drugs, is to have trustworthy friends with you. Make sure they know what's going on. If you feel unsafe or uncomfy at any time you should feel confident that they're there for you. This doesn't mean that they have to remain straight the whole time - just be INFORMED. Knowledge is power.
* If you get tired and you feel drowsy, go to a chill area - girls, take a friend with you. If you're tired and by yourself & someone is giving you major hassles, find the closest place to sit down amongst a lot of people.
* Feel comfortable with your clothing, attitude and environment and never panic - keep a clear head. Remember that this is not some eternal euphoric paradise. Feel confident that you can handle whatever comes your way and remember what the consequences could be.
* Make sure your shoes are comfortable, with thick and stable soles.
