grimble,
Its not much of a trip report, but these are the notes I wrote afterwards:
Tuesday, June 8th, I had my first experience with a psychedelic drug, on 2C-D. I ingested 38.5mg at 11:10am, and I was mostly down by T+4:10. I had no qualms about driving at this time, and the clouds had stopped moving about 20 minutes ago. A slight pain in my neck lasted into the evening. I spent the whole trip in the park. It took about an hour for effects to become apparent. There was very mild stomach discomfort near the beginning, but that went away. The first visual I noticed was that when I lay down, the clouds were moving in very odd and interesting ways. Its hard to describe, but it was like how I imagine storm clouds to "roil" as described in books. Or, it was sort of like fog produced by dry ice on Halloween. At one point we went over to the swings and swung for a bit. The wood chips in front of me seemed to be expanding and compressing as I went up and down. The only reason I didn't like being there was because there was a woman there with her small child, and I felt somewhat self-conscious. I had a sensation like the laptop and everything in it (the internet), was one world and everything at the park was another world. Each of these was lined up horizontally in my mind, and I could choose which one I wanted to be in at any given time. They also had depth to them, so I could move within each world vertically. My thought processes were definitely altered, but not all too strongly. When looking at my knee, I noticed my pants change from blue to purple, and some patterning seemed to be coming out, but I got distracted. The best part of the entire trip was definitely just laying down and looking up at the clouds. I had to focus each time I wanted to start seeing something, but once I got it started and was into it, it was effortless. I think there maybe have been some time distortion (I kept thinking more time had passed than actually had.) I think next time I will take about 50mg in an attempt to achieve some stronger visuals. Also, I would hope to have the option of switching between being inside and outside next time.
And, since then, I did have a second trip. Here are my notes from that:
Monday 6/14 - Second 2C-D trip. I took 49mg. I had the house to myself. The visuals were definitely stronger. Everything I looked at did something. My cat, any painting or artwork, faces, the carpet, they all moved around in different ways. And I noticed what people refer to as "trails" or "tracers". It seemed less introspective than last time, but I felt that the potential was there. I just failed to initiate any of those sort of thoughts. Next time, I will be alone.
I'm looking forward to sampling it again, but I don't know when I'm going to get the chance. I'll try to write up something a little more detailed. I'm planning on taking 60mg next time.
