Yeah the mania from 3-MeO-PCP is pretty tricky sometimes. It's really a subtly powerful drug... it doesn't feel like it's altering you as much as it is. I use it, like I mentioned, in multiple separated low doses, which gets a great euphoria and confidence going, and puts me quite easily into "the flow" where I feel inspired and powerful. It works really well for creating art (music in particular, for me), socializing, and I can't think of a better dancing drug. If I want to actually get dissociated, though, I go for MXE or something else.
But, even at 2-3mg doses, 3 or 4 of them spread out over 8 hours, I notice, if I pay attention, that it affects my judgment in terms of holding myself back from stuff. Just recently I was on it and decided to trip spontaneously, and decided the best course of action was to do a bag wash of my 4-HO-MiPT, and I ended up taking what must have been the largest dose of a 4-sub-tryptamine I've ever taken, which had me truly concerned for my brain for a while. I think I would have exercised better judgment had I not been feeling mania from the 3-MeO-PCP, but at the time it seemed like a perfectly reasonable decision.
