Why did I not trip on 2C-B?

I'd been looking for 2C-B for quite a while and I finally managed to get hold of some for a rave last night. I took 50mg with me, split into 4 bombs (12.5mg each). My friend told me I wouldn't need anywhere near that much for a strong trip, but I thought I might as well take it all with me. Took one bomb as soon as I got in, about 50 minutes later I definitely felt wired, similar to mild MDMA. The come up felt very gradual though. I didn't have any visuals and the stimulatory effects weren't very intense so dropped another after 90 minutes since my first bomb. Still fairly underwhelming, I took another about an hour later, with little effect. Coming into this experience I was expecting effects similar to MDA, with strong visuals and an intense body high. Although I felt in a slightly trippy mindset, and mildly buzzed, it wasn't at all what I expected, no visuals etc. How can this be? Poor quality or maybe just the wrong environment? Surely ~37.5mg should have been more than enough to trip me out.
 
I have the same problem with nbomes. Which are of course related to 2C-X. Which means our problems could have the same answer. Its definitely not a question of quality, multiple times other have been on a intense trip off 1-2mg while the latter does almost nothing. Like you said, i get a psychedelic body high. But visuals are pretty much non-existent.

Knowing that it doesnt react well with me i tried a larger dose of 6mg (6 hits). All that came was the same body buzz, maybe a few visual disturbances, but i wasnt tripping
 
Cos you spaced it out mate
You don't really get any higher than your first dose
Its something to do with tolerance
 
I don't know if I'd agree with the statement that you won't get higher than your first dose, but spreading out a relatively large dose over the course of the evening can certainly lead to highly diminished, though likely greatly prolonged effects. Though if you don't feel you've gone high enough with an initial dose, a lot of drugs have a small window in which redosing will continue to take you higher. Miss that, and you're just prolonging the duration.

in the case of the nbomes, sublingual dosing can also be hit-and-miss at times.
 
Crack Wizard, dosing that high on either 25i or 25c is incredibly dangerous, people have been known to overdose at 3mg, regardless of tolerance.
 
Some people need large doses of 2C-B to feel anything. I know one guy who needs to take almost 40mg all at once to trip. I can get off on less than 20mg. Everyone's body chemistry is different, and you might just need a larger dose. Spacing it out might have also diluted your dose.

its cause you spaced it out
 
Okay cheers. I think I made the mistake of thinking I could take it in the same way as MDMA. I'll try with 20mg next time and see how it goes.
 
When last did you take 2c-X? Particularly NBOMes, they leave you with quite a long lasting tolerance. Same for crack wizard, it could be the tolerance of NBOMes that gives you lessened effects that said I just find the NBOMEs quite unpredictable.
 
That was my first time taking any 2C-x and I've never had NBOMes so I doubt it's a tolerance issue. How long does the tolerance last roughly? I quite want to try again with it but there's no point taking it again soon if I'll just be wasting it.

its.not question of tolerence.. Every trip has been a great diappoinrmwnt .considering what others get out it. Very frustrating considwring all the good stuff ive heard
.
Spose NBOMe just for me :3
 
I tried it again with 25mg. Definitely got the effects from it - a nice mellow buzz, strong closed eye visuals and minor distortions. Although not as strong as 25mg should be from what I've heard from other people. I guess I just have a naturally high tolerance to it.

that sounds about right for 25 mg in my experience. i seem to need a decent amount of 2C-B (HBr) to trip as well. 30 mg seems to be the minimum for a solid trip for me. ~35 mg is more like it.

good on you for starting low and working your way up though!!
 
Don't go up to 37,5 mg immediately, that is really quite a lot and the steps should become smaller. Realize that depending on your stomach contents and other factors leaving an hour in between two low to moderate doses the absorption is probably not optimal, you have not taken the equivalent of 25 mg at once. You could take something like 20 mg with an option of another 10 mg - just take it up a notch but not that much more. Then just try again. If you don't have labtest or mates that tripped out at low doses it is also very possible you have a cut product.
Other explanations are chronic PEA tolerance or being a hardhead to 2C-B. I myself am a hardhead to 2C-B. Happens often enough.
 
I want to try 2C-B. Did shrooms years back, loved em and tripped really hard, not much expirienced with psychs besides that. I do a lot of MDMA though. Is it safe to take 20mg 2C-B the first time or should I start lower? I wanna do it alone at home, maybe go to a club later. Safe? Or is there a chance I freak the fuck out. I did lots of shrooms when they were legal in Netherlands and enjoyed staying home alone and trippin like crazy. I´m just a little scared trying a new drug.

Thanks.
 
It sounds like we have a fairly similar drug history and I really enjoyed 2C-B. I hear a normal dose for 2C-B is between 10-40mg so 20mg should be fine. Unlike shrooms, the trip's mostly visual and you keep a pretty clear headspace, so I doubt you'd freak out. Both times I've tried it have been in a rave environment and I didn't have any problems - except for maybe the effects not being quite as strong as I'd have liked them to be. People have put good info up on Errowid about the effects of different dosages, and whilst it didn't effect me as much as I thought it would, I reckon they're a fairly good guideline.
