Gilbert's disease: It is a familial (autosomal dominant), common (2-5% of people), unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (blood bilirubin measures 1-5mg/dl), not due to breakdown of blood. It is associated with reduced enzyme levels of udp glycuronyl transferase, that results in jaundice when patients fast or suffer an infection. It may predispose to tylenol (acetaminophen) toxicity. We can't agree with your use of illicit drugs either!

Ecstasy: Absolutely avoid ecstacy and also avoid any other recreational drugs.
