12:50-1:00 PM: Choked down 1.3 oz of nutmeg which I powdered down from nuts. I used a nutcracker, then coffee grinder to grind the 9 nuts up. H20 was the only substance used to help me consume the inconsumable and, in fact the only substance consumed so far today; 4 cups. (I'm trying to avoid that dehydration that’s been associated with nutmeg). I think I can safely say that I came closer to puking than ever before from a substance when I was consuming that nutmeg.

1:05 PM: Left to see a 1:40 showing of "Saw". The acting wasn't that good but the movie was all right overall. I started to feel a mellow, weed-like high somewhere during the movie that wasn't very noticeable until I walked out of the theater. Once out, I couldn't stop smiling. I felt the need to ponder faces that walked by and that kept me entertained for awhile; everyone seemed interesting to me.

4:00 PM: Started to head home, still feeling that mellow, weedlike high.

4:20 PM: Another wave hits me during the car-ride and I feel like you do about 2 hours after you have gotten stoned. The only difference was that I had less visual effects at this time than weed would have given me.

5:15 PM: The visual effects kicked in: it took longer to focus on things, peripheral vision gone, and I would zone out at everything I looked at. I feel as if I have just smoked a bowl.

6:00-10:00 PM: Stopped writing my trip report because I stopped caring. It felt like the best of weed highs with more hallucinations. I suppose to some, this wouldn't be a big deal but I have not been able to smoke weed for months and won't be able to again until April 2005. To experience being incredibly stoned was just what I was looking for. To try and explain any hallucinations would be impossible, just like it is always impossible for me to explain hallucinations I have had while stoned. They are usually very dream-like and only appear when I am very focused on something or have been looking at it for awhile. They also usually occur in darker places and are not in color. I guess they can be described as hallucinated shadow objects that only make sense the moment they are seen. I also had a minor loss of motor skills probably because it felt like I was in slow motion as I walked; very delayed reactions. I experienced this for the rest of the night as I quietly ate dinner with my dad, watched TV, and listened to Jack Johnson’s “On and on”. At this point, the high was well worth the stomach ache of gagging down that wretched, brown powder. I assumed I would just wake up the next day a little more tired than usual and go to school.

6:00 AM: I am awakened to go to school and the second I stand up I realize I’m not going. I was tripping as I was when I went to sleep…with much worse side effects. I am unbelievably tired, I have the worst case of cotton mouth and dehydration in my life, and I am rather nauseous. I can’t open my eyes all the way because they are so dry and my dad said I looked white as a ghost. I immediately went back to sleep.

6:00 PM: I awaken from my slumber at a total of 19 hours of sleep and am still feeling the effects of the nutmeg. It was weaker than at 6 this morning but still heavily felt…and speaking of heavy…I feel twice my damn weight. I drink lots of water to kill the dehydration but I have come to the conclusion that it is impossible to get rid of completely; you have to wait it out. I simply ate and watched TV until 11:00 PM when the sandman visited me again. (I don’t think I mentioned the munchies I have had this whole trip…lots of sweet foods).

6:00 AM: “Well, I am not as bad as yesterday morning” (I proceed to stand up) “Damnit”. I didn’t feel AS bad but I still weigh too much and I’m quite tired. The dehydration is lessened but still existent…”Hmm, forget school”. I didn’t do the project that was due today anyway.

2:00 PM: I awaken from the hibernation that is nutmeg feeling almost normal again! After a 15-hour sleep, I am finally hydrated again. I still feel a small bit of visual effects and I am very mellow. It is 8:25 PM as I write this, and since 2:00 PM I have eaten, and watched TV, and done nothing more and I am quite content with just that.


Final Thought

Yes, like The Jerry Springer show, I have a final thought. Nutmeg is a drug that requires a perfect setting. You must have 3 free days to chill and do nothing more. You need to drink nothing but water and lots of it before, during, and after your trip. Don’t be around your parents either since you get incredibly bad red eye and a minor loss of motor skills during the trip. Don’t drive a car while tripping either. They’re harsh requirements but I have thought of the perfect setting: 3-day camp trip over the summer with the campsite beside a fresh water stream. I probably won’t be doing nutmeg again until summer or longer but I have found this trip well worth it. It was a beautiful trip and it was really refreshing to experience a high so similar to weed again. It would be interesting to combine nutmeg with more stimulating hallucinogens such as LSD, LSA, or Shrooms, may have to try that combo next summer.
 
wow, a positive experience on nutmeg. I actually have a friend who enjoys nutmeg aswell (as much of a joke as that may sound). Good report especially for someone new to bluelight :)
 
A nutmeg report! Now that's something you don't see every day. Nicely written as well, and the results of your trip sound very positive especially in comparison to most nutmeg experiences, lol.

Thanks!
 
Thanks for the positive feedback. Yes, I realize now after searching through erowid's trip reports that I am lucky to have enjoyed nutmeg so much. Its hard to have the appropriate setting for using nutmeg and I think thats why so many potentially good trips are ruined. Heres a link to a trip report that got me to try nutmeg(after great researching that is)

Any more comments are appriciated.

Peace
 
Ah nutmeg, i'm one of the few individuals out there that seem to enjoy it. If you take it enough you eventually stop getting a hangover and the nausea becomes tolerable.

Here's a tip on how to choke back that sandy stuff: put about a tablespoon in your mouth DONT chug it down but rather put some liquid in your mouth and swish it around, then drink that down with some more liquid. This i've found removes the sandy texture of the nutmeg when you swallow it and keeps the gag reflex from being activated.

It's a nice pot ersatz.
 
How often do you do nutmeg? I would like to do it again soon if theres ways of avoiding that long hangover.

How much do you usually consume when taking it? I think I may have used a bit much.

Your method on consumption sounds great, though the best method would be to freeze the nutmeg in water, then blend it to make a icey drink with no horrid texture. (got that from erowid). I just wasnt able to use this method since it would probably make my parents a bit curious.:\
 
At least once a week... but really, I admit the only reason I use nutmeg is because it's cheap and plentiful and I have to pass piss tests so I can't mess with pot. Obviously there are much better drugs out there.

I got over the hangover by using the stuff twice a day for a week... yeah that was excessive and I swear I could feel pain where my kidneys are located after a while, just to let you know.

Since then i've had no hangovers after ingesting nutmeg... But it did the trick: If you think you can endure this, and the horrible nausea then nutmeg is for you. Oh--and I usually take about 2 tablespoons.

I find that the psychadelic effects don't come on till about 4 tablespoons--but if you increase the dosage your also increasing the nausea, so I usually don't get that far.

Not sure about that slushy method you've described... I can tell you that taking it in capsules is pointless unless you have really big capsules, and that the "sticky nutmeg blobs" recipe on erowid dosen't work eaither. Nor do any of the other recipes to make the stuff more palatable... i've found time and time again that trying any of these recipes usuallys ends with a horrible tasting concoction that you now have to drink plus the nutmeg you want to get down.
 
I tried nutmeg once when I was young and all it did was make me go to sleep and then the next day I was so fucking hungover I couldn't talk or move. Everything in my body was dry and I was having major delusions. Fuck nutmeg!!!!!! It's a fucking middle school drug! LOL
 
I took about a tablespoon of (pre-ground) nutmeg once mixed in with ice cream--which isn't a bad method of ingestion, I might add--and only experienced some 24-36 hours of lethargy, starting a couple of hours after ingestion. Perhaps some other time, with a higher dose...

Good trip report, btw.
 
Good report. Still doesn't make me want to do nutmeg. I tried it a couple times years ago, but the nausea was never worth the buzz for me.
 
bleeeeeech!!!!!!!!!

I still get nausea remembering my one experience with nutmeg maybe 17 years ago....and the buzz can best be described as the most negative bad crappy ditchweed buzz that u just wish would end that just hangs on for hours....like 36 of the longest hours...and it hell to grind the damn things....i think i used a hammer to crush the whole nutmegs in frustration after realizing that a blender was not going to touch them....i think i might have even blown out a motor on a new coffee grinder once trying to grind whole nutmegs

i think that getting a pcp laced joint in college was a less unpleasant experience!!!:p :X
 
I once tried nutmeg with a friend and I didn't even want to. I guess he was pressuring but I stopped trying stuff he would give me s I usually do with things for reasearch. If someone I know is credible says bad things I don't need to try it to see for myself. Having an alcohol hangover is bad so why try it just to see how horrible it is and just take someone's word for it? lol Anyways, I hated every bit of it and I would never do it again. It tasted so nasty going down and we had no water and nothing but the last few drops of breath spray which is actually a great tip for regular users to get rid of the taste and residual powder. I didn't feel anything at all right away either. I get up the next day and feel kinda odd and go to college. Then I started feeling really sucky and was lucky I only had one class and it was lecture so I just put my head down. I cuoldn't hold it up and felt so wierd. The blood flow felt like it was too much or like my blood vessels were wierdly dilated. I could feel my blood flowing too much and everything seemed like fish eye. It was all just a HUGE mistake. The teacher thought I just didn't sleep much. It was resemlant to a migrane but without the pain and much more out of control with the head. It royally sucked.
 
<<can anyone tell me if the high is different between pre-ground and freshly-ground nutmeg???>>

The consensus is that freshly-ground nutmeg is signficantly more potent and effective than the pre-ground sort.
 
NauseousBeauty, you have my respect for writing a nutmeg report that wasn't a total farce. Gold stars for you!

I know of someone who used to mix it in a cup of tea... he'd have it before bed & said it brought on some awesome dreams.

Nice report - very well written =D
