Hello!
This will be my first time writing a trip report here, so please be forgiving if I am not too good at it.
Having read a lot about the 2Cx compounds I was really interested in trying one and decided upon 2C-E, mainly beacause I like deep meaningful trips and felt was in need of a visual masterpiece. My previous experience with substances includes some RCs (methylone, mdai, jwh) some weed and my favourite, the mushroom (which i have not done enough of...
)
So decided to try for a common, medium dose as a starter. Measured up 15-16mg of white powder, and dissolved it in around 50ml of water. Empty stomach, no breakfast, around noon.
T-0:
Atarted reading some trip reports on various forums, then went to tidy up a bit around the house, then put on some light music waiting for the effects to start
T-0:35:
First signs of activity: the persian rug starts moving from under my feet, i can see all the little hairs of it moving as if a field of wheat in the summer wind. the effect is somewhat more violent, like painted with a larger brush than with mushrooms. The wood fibres in the furniture look like ripples on the surface of the water. light headedness, the body feels strange, it is still mine, just different somehow
T-2:30:
For the past hours the side effects have shown their ugly face: a lot of nausea, feel like vomiting, but dont really, the motions are there, but there seems to be nothing coming out. Some spitting in the toilet, but cant say it really feels that unpleasnt. Though nauseaus, it seems to be more of an inconvenience than a real problem. Slight body twitching, with legs jittering a little bit when the rythms of the music are faster. Increased sweating, had to change clothes
Took a shower which was amazing, and a little bit scary... It seemed like all the patterns around me, in the furniture, in the walls, the water.. changed color. The bathtub turned to something snake skin like, from green to dark yellow. The beads of water, some green, some red, stayed in the vision field even with eyes closed. The showerhead seems to just pour out liquid heat...
T-4:30
The sideeffects subside almost completly, no nausea, just slight modification of body perception. I feel my body somewhat leaner, skinnier than usual, my limbs more deprived of muscle, but not weak. Feeling my face, the hands seem to transmit different surfaces.
Laying in bed looking at the world around me, it seems like it doesnt matter wether or not my eyes are closed or opened, the visuals are like brushstrokes on everything, flowing into each other. Closing eyes seemed to reveal an inner skeleton for the objects around me. Though usually afraid of insects and snakes, the patterns that seems to morph into shapes of beatles, or worms or whatnot did not at all seem frightening, but playful.
Music sounds amazing, like nothing ever heard before. Listening to various artists, not being a true believer in trip music. I like all sorts, and the enjoyment I get from listening is just incredible. Jimi Hendricks sounds like he is playing in my head using my whole body as an instrument. Dj Shadow tingles my spine, and on Unkle I feel my muscles contracting with the pulses of the bass beat. I seem to torsion in pleasure.. This is by far the best I ve ever felt with music around me. Whats more is that it doesnt have to be real loud, i can hear it very well, stereo, surround, even if in another room. If i felt any better it would probably be called music porn.
And milkdrop on the pc screen is just out of this world. Playing with my hands in front of my eyes, though feeling a bit silly, is beautiful, as their traces are left behind, and I can almost paint around me with them
T-6:00
Decided to go outside, feeling more and more confident. It seems like a light summer rain started, and people are all scattering for cover. I find it refreshing. Walking by gardens it seems the colors of flowers are looking back at me, smiling. Roses turn their heards, the vegetation seems luxuriant, not jungle like, but lush, green with golden streaks. The human world, with buildings, cars seems a bit cartoonish - cars appear a bit like the old cartoons, a bit wobbly, a bit too sharp, their perspective of moving seems a bit off. Birds look free, dogs friendly. People are loud, some suspicious, some not understanding of the grin on my face.
The clouds in the sky take my breath away, especially when the rain clears a bit for the silver lining to show. Though wet to the skin, I feel like I could walk forever.
No music playing in my ears, but listening to the city beat, breathe. My hearning seems more acute, but also more easily frightened.
Crossing the street is no worry, my reflexes seem intact, just that I cant control my grinning at the world and did not want to raise suspicions something may be off with me. Returning to the house, the key doesnt work because of the rain so I have to wait for someone else to open it (other people in the building). I start to get a little anxious, but somehow I still feel safe, like there is no way for this trip to go bad.
T-8:00
Again in the house, again took a shower to warm up after the rain, this time nothing as spectacular as the snakeskin tub, but more fun was had with the mirror. A little afraid at first to look in the psychedelic mirror, but though distorted I still recongnizes myself, a bit toad-looking, but amuzing. Made funny faces at myself, which made me look more like different animals, and even robot looking (think metropolis robot).
Looking at paintings makes them come alive, with motion, with stories. But this is not like the feats of imagination on shrooms, there I could imagine a whole story, here it is more like seeing a scene in action, but without the background story. Looking out the window is a beautiful sight, though at some points the vision seems steamy, or better yet, like looking though hot moist air (not foggy, but clear). Reading is difficult, so is typing on the computer, and fine details (like the frame of the painting) are not discernable.
No particular enjoyment of food or drinks (like I get from mushrooms)
T-10:00
Effects seem to taper off somewhat, still the vision is unclear, still the mirror image is distorted, but music is not as enhanced, and everything seems to be coming back to normal. Realize that I have some slight headache and feel a bit tired (not surprising, this is the longest I have ever tripped), especially on the right side of my head. Decide to try to play some videogames while sleep comes, but my reaction times are a bit off (probably because I hadnt played in a looong time anyway)
T-12:00
Effects are nearly completly gone. Mirror self is my usual self, feelings of my own body are back to normal, music is nice, but normal, muscles a bit aching (especially from the nausea). Drift into sleep without troubles, no spectacular dreams (just normal dreams), and a quite relaxing sleep
Next day: slightly lowered mood because of tiredness and a long difficult day, but nothing that could be directly attributed to the 2C.
Overall I loved this substance. It is a bit overlong (wouldve prefferd probably 8h) and the comeup nausea is formidable, but I loved the feelings it gave me, especially the music enhancement, and the visuals. There was also this feeling of it being like a rollercoaster at times, where even when you feel a bit panicky or afraid, you can lay back and think it is perfectly safe.
Will definetly be returning to this world again.
