What's your favorite 2C-X?

[hippietripper]

These 'favorite substances' polls are inherently flawed, and I do not respect them, as the data is not valid. Asking somebody which 2C-x they prefer is like asking somebody what their favorite country they've been to is. Sure there are some well travelled people about, but far more people have never even left their country of origin. For somebody to say they prefer one thing over everything else in a class when they haven't even tried a quarter of the things in that class is simply flawed statistics.

On a related note, my absolute favorite substance I've ever ingested is mescaline, hands down. I'm sure many other people feel the same way. However, only a small percentage of people have actually tried mescaline, therefore with less than 4% in the general 'favorite psychedelics' poll, it gets no respect.



I'm voting 2C-T-FM specifically to express my dissatisfaction with this poll.

I agree most of the people voting don't even have all of these chemicals availabe to them much less have they even tried them all.

I haven't ever done a mescaline extraction but I have had san pedro 1% powder and I respect the powers of the cactus but that still does not make it my favorite psychedelic it is not a casual trip and it is an inconvience to clear out 30 or 40 hours dox compounds have the same issue

^^30-40 hours of dedicated time seems a bit extreme for those chemicals. I have tried both DOI and San Pedro, and neither of them require that kind of time.

 

[Xorkoth]

Good point, egor. Especially with cactus, 8-12 hours is all you need, depending on how you are at the very tail end stages of psychedelics. Personally I enjoy going about my life and interacting with people at the end of the low plateau stage of most substances. At 12 hours I can't imagine there would be anything residual left over from the trip.

DOX compounds do take a good 24 hours of time commitment, but 30-40 is a bit extreme.

I voted 2c-b but tend to like 2c-e alot also....gives me a little more negatives so did not put as the fav one. I find that it is so hard to go on these ( or any for that matter ) reviews as solid material for your outcomes on each drug. They are percieved so different by individuals, that is what makes the experimentation, at least for me, so interesting. Peace!

Ditto! Although this is the specific reason I never publically 'recommend' these sorts drugs to anyone...even though in many cases I have found the 'research chemicals' far better than the 'safe to recommend' drugs such as LSD, or mushrooms. I feel those decisions are best made by the person wondering.

 

[Jabberwocky]

No way that I would recommend ANYONE take any 2C-compound as there is really not enough known abuot their safety profiles, but I would definitely recommend (and have in the past) certain select friends to try psilocybe mushrooms.

2c-d

Hello every one, I'm new here (bluelight), although I have tried quite a few of the 2C-Xs (B,C,D,I,T-2,T-7,T-21). A few of these I have only tried once, but I'd have to say 2C-D is one I will always go back to. It is short, fun, and no side effects at all. In 2nd place comes 2C-C, I feel you can direct this trip in any direction and I've always found it quite meaningful. 2C-C has made me sick during the come up before, but overall it is great. I havn't used any of these compounds in a few years, but I just happened upon some B,C,&D (B being my 3rd favorite), so I doubt my opinions will change; although my top 3 my change positions.

 

[illusion25]

i voted for 2ce.
i have only tried 2cb, 2ce and 2ci though

 

[e1evene1even]

After trying 2C-B for the first time last night at 20mg, I have to say it is now my favorite 2C-X. The visuals were incredible (fractal eye candy) and after smoking cannabis it became quite psychedelic. I can see how people have described it as a cross between LSD and MDMA. It has elements of both. I also found it was a bit like 'rolling' although they were visual and psychedelic 'rolls' rather than euphoric ones. Although not forcefully psychedelic, it allowed me to go fairly deep and to come back almost completely just by opening my eyes.

I ingested 20mg in OJ over 10 minutes on a completely empty stomach and I was almost completely sober after 4 hours. I very short trip that doesn't leave you feeling short changed. There was hardly any comedown to speak of, nothing unpleasant at all, I just remember thinking, 'wow, I love this stuff!'. I can understand why it was the first 2C to gain popularity in both psychotherapy and as a recreational drug, truly one of the more magical of Shulgin's children.

 

[Morninggloryseed]

Yeah, its a good chemical for recreation but it can't touch the depth of 2C-D, 2C-E, or 2C-T-7. But 2C-B is good when you are not looking for depth, just a good time.

 

[Jabberwocky]

2cb.

Best drug combo? 2cb + MDMA.

Oooyaah it's good :D

 

[e1evene1even]

^I'll likely be trying it with MDA in the near future (and on its own in about 45 minutes). I also have the urge to mix 2C-B and 4-AcO-DMT, I think they have similar positive qualities and also they both have an almost complete lack of negative side effects, at least for me.

 

[isotopic_parody]

I voted 2c-e simply because it was my only +4 to date, and a beautiful, yet terrifying experience.

It's really funny how everyone claims no visuals on 2c-i but incredible ones on 2c-e, as I experience exactly the opposite. I watched the entire wall move and shift and breath on 2c-i, while 2c-e I don't notice any color enhancement or visual disturbance at all.

 

[illusion25]

i wonder if the effects of different 2cx's have any influence on each other depending on what order you try each one?

i am guessing it would...
2cb is my least favorite..but also my last 2cx to try.
I built a huge tolerence with 2ce for 2 years...prior to trying 2cb.

what i am saying is maybe i would have liked 2cb better if i tried it first then did 2ce.

maybe the order of chemicals used has a big influence on how they effect us.....


any thoughtss?

unles you sERIOUSELYU abused 2c-e in which your receptors are permenitly altered I wouldnt think so, but I could see you easily jading your self to less potent psychedelics (which 2c-b seems to be compaired to the effects of 2c-e, if you can get confortable with 2c-e then 2c-b would be childs play.)

 

[wng-]

2c-e is my favorite. Coming in a close second is 2c-b and a trailing third is 2c-t-7

 

[illusion25]

if you can get confortable with 2c-e then 2c-b would be childs play.)

this is probably the reason.
when i use 2ce i usually mix other chemicals with it because 2ce alone isnt enough for me anymore.
2ce and mdma are fun
as well as 2ce and lsd

 

[egor]

^^ I had the same issue with 2ce a few years back. I went through 500mg over a period of 3 weeks by myself. I found 4-xxx-tryptamines (4-aco-mipt and 4-ho-dipt in particular) to give 2c-e back the punch it had been missing. I did not take 2c-e for almost a year, which completely obliterated my tolerance.

 

[Tribe]

My fave has to be 2ce as i've had the most intense visuals, greatest body feel and been more loved up, giggly and affectionate with my gf than any of the others. 2cc is probably 2nd as the colours are more vibrant and I had one of the shortest but most intense burst of tripping after eating 30mg then snorting about 10mg! for half an hour myself, my gf and one of my mates were lying there laughing away like loons and tripping balls!!! Still have a soft spot for 2cb tho, and i'll try any of the others if they come up again.

I'd have to say 2C-E is my favorite, by far, out of the 2Cs I've tried. It is consistently profound without being overpowering; I've come to amazing revelations unconditionally, every single time I've eaten it, in one way or another. However, I do not get many visuals from it at all, as many people claim to. Even on larger doses I will barely see the faintest of distortions.

2C-I feels very cheaply psychedelic to me. It sometimes produces visuals and sometimes gives me the mental energy to go places, but overall it feels more like a bland empathogen, and it is generally weak. 2C-T-2, on the other hand, has helped spur some of my most productive thoughts and conversations, but I think they can be attributed more to coincidence than to the actual character of the chemical. I also find body load significantly rises while clarity goes way down upon eating larger doses of the stuff; that's a definite turn-off to me.

2C-T-7 I've eaten one single time, and I was too impulsive a teenager to really get much useful out of the experience. I did it in a social setting in which those around me were only taking it to get fucked up, and I gladly obliged. While I was massively overwhelmed by the visuals -- I don't normally get many visuals on psychedelics, and certainly not ones of that calibur -- I was somewhat unimpressed with the headspace; it was not a true mental journey in the way I expect a psychedelic to be. However it could easily be blamed on the environment, if nothing else. Perhaps I wasn't ready.

I may be privy to a fair volume of 2C-T-7 sooner than later and will likely experiment to my heart's content until I know for absolute certain.
