is there any safe way to do nitrous

yeh don't use balloons, to recycle ur breath..

it leads to oxygen deprivation, just hit from tank or w/e, i think it's underwhelming, i was used to doing balloons and losing brain cells ig

common sense stuff like have about 20-50% of ur breath in u already before hitting it if your going to breath hold a bit
 
not sure what makes you think it's very unsafe. it's an inhalant but it's not a volatile solvent like glue or paint.
as mentioned, the main danger is not getting enough oxygen.
don't use something stupid like a mask. make sure that if you pass out, the method of administration falls away.
long term danger... nerve damage due to methyl b12 deficiency.
 
yeah... i'm pretty sure there is a poster here that has a tank hooked up to oxygen set up.. there are pics off his set up some where if you do some search. i forget the exact poster. they'll probably respond.

i like to take a hit of nitrous on low dose psychedelics cause it amplifies it A TON for a short period... i seem to be able to do that once in an evening and not want to do a ton of it... nitrous is kind of pointless to me with out the psychedelic, just lying around feeling weird.
 
Yes to truly experience a nitrous high you would need an oxygen to nitrous ratio that was safe for some duration of time... you search it someone on here has built a working rig for it!

Whippets are different and only good when tripping IME lol --- different experience altogether almost though
 
Its not great --- oxygen deprivation is definitely the enemy with whippets. Once once in the hospital they had some poor kid in cuffs his dad thought he "OD'd" on whippets.

I said headrush and looked passed him with no context. The passout game or whatever (If kids still do that) is a simalar oxygen deprivation (not great for the brain) phenomenon-- but with no psychoactive
 
oh i thought every huff killed braincells
Oxygen deprivation kills brain cells, not nitrous oxide. Fill a punch balloon or a non-lubricated condom from a tank, and just remember to breathe for a little bit after each hit. I’ve worn a pulse oximeter while using N₂O before, and my SpO₂ levels were fine. You can also use a T-shirt or a rag as a filter over the nozzle to help prevent inhaling metal particles, although this mainly applies to charges. 99% of the people who frequent this forum have gone hard in the paint with the gas, and I’m sure they can attest that they’re still cognitively intact. As Shin said, just use it in moderation.

Lol, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tripped just as an excuse to buy a fat tank of gas. It’s easily in my top five. Hitting a balloon while under the influence of any psychedelic, besides MDxx, completely changes it. It’s entertaining enough on its own, but I feel like you can only get so high from it, if that makes any sense. It plateaus after a certain point, and then you’re just chasing the high until the tank is roached.

I’m not big into ketamine or really any other dissos, for that matter, but oh boy, do I love nitrous.

Very well said up to this point which I gotta question.... I would hope that we are more educated than that in general.

I knew one friend that huffed gas a few times and one of which i broke the garage window out that he was huffing it in (Paid his dad for the window, didnt say why I broke it) -- but I was like 13 and gave his ass a stern talking to. "I got like grocery bags of hydro weed we can go smoke- what on earth are you doing" --- Bit of a flair for the dramatic and a bit self righteous but I was 13 gimme a break.

Even during the hellish period that was probation -- now whippets I take the fifth on -- but I never considered huffing gas or paint.

Maybe it is just because I was born in NM and ppl would huff mad chrome paint and they never seemed to be the "harm reduction" type idk

Oh, I may have worded that poorly. By “hard in the paint,” I meant going through a tank quickly. I wasn’t referring to huffing paint or solvents.
 
1. Don't get suffocated acutely. Take breaths of air between.
2. Max ~300g per session. This is about 40 carts.
3. Max once every six weeks.
4. Take B12 preventively in the days/weeks before your session.

I don't have the sources on hand right now, but this is based on scientific papers and calculations.

Optional:

5. Get filthy rich and source your own xenon which is a more potent and nootropic dissociative gas.
 
can i take one hit then take a few breaths maybe a 30 second break and then take another for a few rounds a day
Every day? No. Eventually your b12 will deplete and that will cause nerve damage.

The main danger with nitrous overuse is b12 depletion. It depletes your b12 reserves and prevents your body from being able to absorb more. The more frequently you use it and the longer the span of time over which you use it the greater the risk.
 
If i use nitrous straight for a week will i be good? Just one week and 7 tanks
I mean, it's not "safe" to do that but the extent to which you will be harmed by it is probably on the lower end if you're otherwise healthy. My main concern with doing that would be addiction.

I don't think it's addicting in the same way as opiates where you get sick, but given it's short duration, it lends itself to compulsive redosing and psychological addiction. If you can make sure that week doesn't turn into a longer duration and you make sure you don't repeat it with any regularity, you'd probably be okay if you're already healthy.

I don't think anyone is going to tell you it's at all a good idea though.
I hope I don't come across as condescending in saying this, but if you believe going through 7 tanks in a week is wise, you might be the kind of person that needs to be extra careful with drugs.

I say this as the kind of person that has a tendency to take things too far myself if I don't maintain a certain level of self discipline.

Who told you that?

Just don't do it every day until your spine stops working.

Moderation in all things, and all that.
There's a very prevent myth that nitrous causes brain damage in the same way that inhaling solvents does. I've even seen this claim repeated in mainstream media that really should have a higher standard of research than that.

Instead of warning people about the real risks like B12 deficiency or oxygen deprivation, they claim it literally dissolves your brain. It's very irresponsible imo.
 
Only way to do it safely is to get some high grade shit, dont touch galaxy gas it is'nt pure enough for truely safe consumption. Besides that yeah dont do it alone and make sure not to recycle your breath.
