The Big & Dandy Nitrous Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
Nitrous alone can be very intense. You probably arn't doing enough, or you're doing something wrong. Cannabis does potenate it, but personally I find that the effects of the nitrous overwhelm the effects from the weed. At the time my stoned feeling isn't very noticable when I'm blown into outerspace on N20 ;)

Indeed N20 is a very powerful substance on its own, and i too feel the effects of nitrous overpower any other substances i am on.

I usually inhale 1 cartridge of 8g, one balloon. I inhale all n2o with only one big inhalation, all n20 balloon in my lungs from 1 hit, and keep it about 50 seconds in my lungs (I start to feel effects at 20) and exhale all hit and enjoy the nitrous feeling 15-30 seconds more (body vibrations, weird tact, metallic hearing and some anesthetic effects in my mouth specially)... I find it a bit disappointing, usually my mind state not change, some mild euphoria similar (even less sometimes) to cannabis mindstate (I´m refer to cannabis effects with little tolerance, I only smoke every two weeks usually). Even only 10 mg of nexus, give me a more powerful effect at the end of come up. Is correct? Some wrong with me? XD

^Don't just exhale the nitrous, breathe it out into the balloon. Pinch the balloon, take a couple of breaths of air, then take another hit of nitrous. Repeat until the balloon is empty. You'll get much higher. Also, I generally don't bother with a single charger of nitrous, it takes two to really get where you want to be.

aham, I´ll try this the next time hehe. One question more please, every time that you inhale again (from the same balloon) keeps your breathing again too, right? (the same process with first hit repeatedly with all "reciclyng" hits)

If you make sure to breath all the way out before breathing in from the balloon then you get minimal added air mixed with the nitrous, it still adds up though, we have tried to make balloons last for longer than a few miinutes and it just loses its effect no matter what after a certain amount of inhale/exhales.
 
Hi guys

Tried nitrous for the first time a few days ago, but it wasn't quite what I was expecting. Can anyone tell me if there is a problem with my method of administration please?

Basically I felt lightness, a mild euphoria, and a "swinging/rocking" feeling, but there was no disassociation of any sort, and during the whole time (of a few minutes I think) I was very clear headed.

And the way I did it is this - I bought a whipped cream dispenser with a few 8g chargers, as well as a few party balloons. I loaded a charger into the dispenser, stuck a balloon on the head, then proceeded to blow it up.

I couldn't load more than the content of one charger into a balloon because I am sure it would burst.

I exhaled my breath, then started to breath in through the balloon using the mouth. I breathed out about half back into the balloon and half into the atmosphere because the pressure of the balloon sort of overwhelms my breath. The nitrous tasted fresh and a bit sweet. I took one or two breaths of fresh air using the nose in between each mouth inhalation. As I'm a smoker, it took a few lungful to take it all in, and I couldn't hold each breath for very long.

Because the effect was a bit weak, I repeated two more times, and decided I won't waste any more chargers until I find out what's wrong...

So, has anyone any idea what's wrong with my method of administration?

Thank you.

Oh and one more thing - am I supposed to take B12 supplements before or after using nitrous?
 
That's pretty much the technique for it. You could try not exhaling as much of it & holding it in instead, but you've got the idea. Whippets are typically a very greedy drug; the effect is strong but short-lived, so everybody wants the next hit.
 
You can take B12 by all means, but you don't really need to unless you're using nitrous very heavily.
 
I've always found personally that exhaling and inhaling repeatedly is extremely wasteful and makes it hard to 'get very far' with nitrous. I recommend simply taking a few deep breaths first, exhaling, filling your lungs with nitrous and holding it in for 30 seconds or so.

Are you using a cracker (small piece of metal that unscrews to hold a nitrous charger and has a small opening on one side that the nitrous shoots out of, which you put a balloon over)? Those things are awful little deathtraps. Do yourself a favor and get a proper whipped cream dispenser (the ones that actually look like whipped cream cans). There's a removable compartment that holds a charger; you put one in, screw it back in place and the charger is pierced and fills the inside of the whipped cream dispenser. No need to unscrew slowly to avoid flash-freezing your skin off or popping some silly balloon. Just fill 'er up, then put the nozzle directly into your mouth and dispense as much nitrous as you care for. It's WAY more convenient and also much safer. If you are already using one of these styles of dispensers, do yourself a favor and skip that silly balloon step.
 
^NEVER put a nitrous dispenser directly into your mouth. The gas is under pressure and expands rapidly, cooling as it does so. The low temperature or high pressure could damage your lungs. A balloon isn't that much hassle, and IME it lets you get a lot more out of it; you can hold it in for 30 seconds, breathe it out, get some oxygen, then inhale it again, whereas without a balloon it's gone once you exhale it.
 
^He's talking about a taking nitrous directly from a cream whipper, which is perfectly safe.

The last time I did nitrous I did the breath in and breath back into the balloon thing and had an amazing experience...for a brief moment, my eyes sort of blacked out, and the next thing I know it seems like I am on the ground looking up and struggling to open my eyes...standing above me is a blond haired little girl, and an elderly man dressed in white who looked like Colonel Sanders from KFC standing behind her, both looking down at me and saying something I wasn't fully able to hear, but it seemed like they had maybe just witnessed me pass out and were reviving me...the only thing is, I don't know anyone like either of those people in real life, and as I started to realize this, I then found my field of vision started to dissolve...it appeared somewhat like when a digital tv loses signal and the rebuilds the image as signal is restored, with the image of the old man and little girl giving way to the room I was in doing the nitrous. Still trying to figure out what all that means to me...strange stuff!
 
Seconded^^

I don't regret the 50€ I spent on that whipped cream dispenser...
Just attach and fill a balloon. You also avoid any risk of frostbite, unlike with a badly used cracker.



Nope. There is a proven risk of neurological damage associated with daily use of Nitrous.
I don't know why you'd want to take it daily anyway. Nitrous is kinda dumb to use on its own, it's only interesting in combo with a psychedelic...


Nitrous depletes vitamin B12. The consequences are complicated to understand because multiple cellular processes can become unbalanced directly and indirectly. Everyone should research this if doing nitrous recreationally rather than just take anything I say here as fact. What I understand about it, you can supplement with folate (folic acid) to avoid blood cell malformation. Your body needs to regenerate a chemical which binds to B12 to make it active in the body. If there is too much of this other chemical, then it can imbalance other cycles leading to nerve damage. Symptoms include a deadening of sensation in the skin, tingling in the extremities, irritability, depression, poor memory (recall) and a shocking sensation when tipping the head down (chin to chest).

The damage is reversible if caught early. Stop using nitrous and take daily B12 for a few weeks until the symptoms go away.

It seems better to do a bunch of nitrous every few months or longer apart than to do a little every day.

================================

As for effect, my personal experience is that there are at least two different ways to "enjoy" it by itself. One is just as a social lubricant and for the giggles and wah wahs. The other is to follow the delicate mental effects from sober to high. Try a very low-light, comfortable setting with good music that is not too distracting. Relax your gaze or close eyes and try to "tune in" to your perceptions while sober and then follow the changes while taking hits. Sort of a meditation. For me the effects can be stunningly visual (albeit faint). Comparing notes with others, it can be completely non-visual, but some parallels of experience affecting the other senses or mental thinking.

I get a lot of imagery that seem to represent opposing elements, concepts, etc. Add a little pot and the effect is much more pronounced with a 1/10 of the nitrous use.

If this sounds familiar to anyone, please PM me. I would love to share thoughts on the experiences.
 
go green with envy. unworthies.

this thing is straight from the 70ies, it's UNUSED, the sealings are absolutely fresh and I got it for ONE ridiculous euro on a flea market. the design is so elaborate I just have it standing around as a piece of art. :p happy. :D
 
^They usualy sell those at porn shops.


Anyone ever been driven around while takeing hits of nitrouse; its pretty asome.

i hope not, thats about the dumbest thing i could think of doing.

If you want to take risks with your life thats fine, but endangering others safety for your thrills is selfish and stupid.
