Well hot damn, 4-EMC is great! I got it just because it was laughably cheap, but I actually really like it. It didn't feel stimulating at all, it just felt like a warm blanket of soft empathogenesis and euphoric sensation. Nothing overwhelming but every aspect of it was positive and lovely, there were literally no downsides. I started with 200mg rectally + 50mg nasally, then redosed 5 times in total over the course of 7 hours, for a total of probably close to a gram. I didn't feel fiendy at any time, the redoses were done at intervals I allowed myself to do beforehand. There was no comedown at any point, and I felt the same lovely way the whole time, every redose actually worked. There was a period of time that I felt pretty rushy, right after my first redose of 160mg rectally (after that I did it all nasally), during that time I sat down with a massive grin and my eyes were rolling back in my head listening to music. Despite ALL that 4-EMC, my heartrate did not seem to go up at all, I did not feel stimulated, but the feeling felt very complete, I didn't feel like I was lacking anything. I had a fair amount of empathogenesis, no controllably pouring out my feelings, but I wanted to talk a lot and share feelings. It was very much an in-control feeling, a nice thing for relaxing with friends. We were originally going to go to a show, but it was an outdoor venue and it was cold, rainy and quite windy, so we stayed in, and I'm glad because I think it was perfect. Over the course of about 9 hours I drank a good bit of beer with it but never got more than slightly drunk, they mixed fine.
Today I don't even have a hangover, my nose is pretty clogged but that's par for the course with snorting hundreds of milligrams of powder. The burn stung a bit but only for a very short time, it wasn't bad to snort at all. As I mentioned, it felt no comedown feelings at any point even after 5 redoses. I feel asleep pretty easily about 2 hours after my last redose, even though I still felt really good.
Honestly overall I might prefer this to methylone. It didn't reach the same peak, but there were literally no downsides. With methylone I do feel a comedown, and I feel really fiendy for more, and after redoses the comedown can get pretty bad. It seems about equipotent with methylone, maybe it's less potent and higher doses would be even better, I'll probably try that next time, an initial 300mg dose. On the other hand, my friend had 100mg nasally and then redosed 100mg and had to sit down because of the intense rushes, and threw up unexpectedly too. Two friends tried it with me, both took way less than I did and seemed at least as intoxicated if not moreso. My other friend took like 70mg nasally and then was floored, he said it was too intense for about 15 minutes. He redosed 30mg after maybe an hour and got floored again. Of course he is really sensitive to everything, he'll be really high from 60mg of methylone, or 75mg of MDMA.
For me, it was not that sort of high where you're like "OH MY GOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE", but I felt really, really good all night and had a really wonderful night, and paid no price for that, it was easy to keep it at the same level. I didn't have a single hint of discomfort, or any lossy feelings as it started to drop in intensity, or any fiending, or anything. I just smoked a hit of weed and I actually feel a low-level version of the same feeling, how nice.
EDIT: Well, I do notice that I feel pretty unmotivated today. I feel a general sense of not feeling 100%, I kinda just want to sit around and watch episodes on netflix, I am used to doing something or spending time with my girlfriend during downtime so this is making me feel listless, but I do feel listless when I don't have anything to do for the day regardless of whether I just did a lot of an empathogen the night before. I do think my energy level is lower but I think if I went to hang out with friends, for example, that I'd have a good time and not really notice. I felt better when I woke up than I do now, but I still feel pretty decent. If I had taken that much methylone, for example (using the example of what I previously considered to be the lowest-impact empathogen I've tried), I would feel significantly more drained today. I am considering a low dose of 3-MeO-PCP, it would probably overall be better for me if I didn't but I feel like it would be nice.
I had originally intended on sampling escaline today but I certainly don't feel up to it now.
Also worth noting that I took phenibut 2 days in a row and none today, and whenever I do that I do feel some amount of lowness on the off day. Gotta start reducing phenibut, I've been slowly increasing my rate of usage, and I need to get back down to a sustainable level.
