2C-B and Bad Trips?

[DiZzyBonne]

So pretty much, I've had it with bad trips. I've had 3 on acid, one on 2C-P, and one on 2C-I...and the setting is usually good. My set at those times, however, I had no job, and I'm sure that affected it at some point or another. I now have a job and am getting my life back on track, and I'm debating on doing some 2C-B. Before I go further, my bad trips on acid have always been on 4 strong tabs, my 2C-P bad trip was on 8 mg followed by a rough 4 mg redose (some three or four hours later,) and my 2C-I bad trip was on about 28-30 mg (I took a little more than my usual because I had just done it three days prior at around 25 mg.)

Anyway, I hope this doesn't classify as a "what drug should I take" thread, but I guess what I'm asking is, what is the likely hood of a bad trip on 2C-B? I really wanna try it, and have been wanting to try it for quite some time. I'd probably do a dose in the ballpark of 15-20 mg.

Thanks!

[EDIT]

I forgot to mention, I've had a bad trip once while candyflipping...but that night, I was already rolling via two crushed pokeballs I snorted (this was back when I had too many pills and have since quit rolling) and decided I wanted to take acid. I picked up 4 strong hits, ate them when I got back home, and decided to do two more lines, then smoked some weed, and the bad trip commenced.

Just thought I'd throw that in there, seeing as supposedly 2C-B is very similar to candyflipping.

What was your 'bad trip' on acid like? I'm just curious because I've never felt like acid could ever turn on me or anything.

You've probably already realized this but "bad trips" have much more to do with your perspective at the time. Instead of trying to choose which drug to take instead be mindful of when you take the drug. Perhaps when you have no responsibilities, when you have a place to stay and do whatever. In the case of 2c-b I'd say wait until you have another person to take it with, one on one. I've had many 2c-b experiences, every one of them was positive and fulfilled. A lot of the time I've spent high on 2c-b was spent simultaneously banging and visualizing. Its definitely worth the wait.. Time well spent indeed.

EDIT; Also whoever told you 2c-b is a lot like candyflipping has absolutely no clue what either experience is like. They both feel like being on drugs and the similarities end there.

Acid has almost always felt warm and safe to me, but I can very much imagine it going bad, especially at higher doses. I imagine everything in the surroundings would appear hostile and artificial, there would be an overwhelming sense of wrongness and danger or of being broken, and thought patterns would become torturous. Curiously I almost feel like I remember this happening to me, but it never has.

very well said, if you are prone to bad trips its most likely not the drug but that you'reb going through something difficult during your life at, try to wok on that and once you're feeling mor stable and confident you cn try 2C-B.

I've fnever had a bad trip on a 2C-x, unlike LSD, so in that regard i believe its safer, but still, proceed with caution
