Finally got mine in the mail on Friday. I decided to
not wait for my new scale and just do a liquid measurement with the whole batch (250mg). Did a 1:1 mg to ml ratio so as to avoid any silly mistakes when later attempting to dose. I'm not a retard when it comes to math but I figure the less margin for error with a substance with such a high dose-response curve the better.
I don't know how long this will last in the solution of filtered water but I figure, hell, it
is a research chemical I might as well do a little research on it. If my money ends up getting wasted via degradation at least I can report it here and other people can avoid doing it as well
Anyway last night was my 1st brush with psychedelic PEA's. The only PEA's in general that I've done were MDMA and amphetamine. Started with a low dose (8mg) to a) get a feel for the substance and b) make sure that my measurements were correct (I always second guess myself
).
Time line was exactly as reported from numerous other users. First alerts @ 0:45. Peak @ 1:30. Comedown @ 5:00. The come-up triggered an IBS attack but it passed quickly. Very small amount of nausea that passed after 1:30'ish. Had a stomach-ache for the entirety of the trip, however. It wasn't terrible and it didn't do anything to shape the trip though and I attribute it to having not eaten in 10 hours and only eating mildly then. Sleep came fairly easily at T+6:30 but I was on a low dose. I can imagine not being able to sleep on higher doses for quite some time.
The effects felt almost identical to low-dose LSD but more clean feeling. Also had a more analytical mind-set then I'm used to on psychedelics. No visuals except for an extremely appreciated blanket of definition and clarity to detail. This was the effect I was looking for when I decided to go ahead with 2C-E so I was very happy to achieve it at such a low dose.
I took a walk around the block at about T+3:45. It was about -10C outside and very, very still. It was dark, lightly snowing, and with very little wind. A nice, undisturbed snow-cover had blanketed the area and it was very serene and nice to look at. Plus there was some very cool hoarfrost on the branches of bushes and things which I found fascinating. Ended up going back inside and enjoying the rest of my night in the warmth.
Sorry for the long-winded ramblings! I just found this substance to be quite awesome for such a low-dose. Not powerfully "moving" but still deep and
clear. I can't wait to try 14mg next week.
