It seems there's a diversity of experience accumulating here. Now that I've mostly caught up:
Tripping out on some k (and now mxe by preference) in the pitch dark with good music had been my idea of a fun time, for a while. But due to circumstances with my living arrangements combined with the certainty that once dosed, I will not stop till I'm out, this became less possible. Tripping in the day grew on me. Before it used to be like, just binged on k all night and coming down, the sun is shining and everything feels quite good and seems high-contrast.
I believe whatever mental traps one has prior to using mxe, will be amplified and remain the same unless some conscious control is exercised. From this perspective, an addictive personality is already inclined to not show some discipline, and I've found I go in whatever direction I damn well feel like. Back 8 pages ago someone was lamenting about how their days-long binge was turning schizo on them. While ket and PCP have "been a model for schizophrenia," this has got to vary to degrees. Even after a 6-some-gram weeklong bender, though I certainly was not a model "sane" person, I never once saw/heard things which were not there. Actually, this has never been the case for drugs save anticholinergics (eek!).
I dunno though, maybe my insanity is plotting and concealing itself from me
As for why we haven't seen more news regarding mxe mishaps- While I've done stupid shit on other drugs, it seems my good judgement is at least somewhat present enough not to try stairs or driving when too impaired. And while I've taken this material too far, in retrospect at the time I had sense enough to be doing the largest amount possible without wasting the experience by killing myself.
Before I put up another wall of text (sorry) I'd add, now that I've been clean from mxe for a few weeks, I am starting to recognize the areas of personality which mxe helped me amplify. And now that I'm not high, I don't always like what I see. I think dissociatives have the potential to make ego issues worse, and I see this reading this thread. So, beware.
