I'm pretty new to psychedelics and I only have a few trips under my belt. This was most recent trip with 1000ug of 25i-NBOMe complexed with HPBCD which happened 3 days ago.
I am currently not on any medications or supplements, except for magnesium, which I take for muscle tension/cramps. I'm in pretty good shape and I exercise often. Mentally I was feeling pretty good. I've had periods of depression and an eating disorder in my past but I think I'm 95% recovered now. I hadn't been planning to trip today but the opportunity arose so I decided to take it. I've taken 25i-NBOMe once before at 700ug and it was enjoyable but not very intense, visuals were nice though. I decided to up my dosage this time.
At around noon, I placed the blotter between my upper gum and cheek and left it there for about 40 minutes. I let my saliva pool in my mouth although I couldn't help but swallow a few times. My saliva was bitter and my mouth was a bit numb, especially where the blotter was. My close friend wanted to hang out around 1pm, and I like to get out of the house when I'm peaking, so I planned accordingly. About half an hour after placing the blotter on my gum, my body started to feel lighter and a bit separate from my mind, but no visuals or mental effects yet.
At 1, I walked over to my friend's place. I waited for her in her apartment lobby for a few minutes and I noticed the visuals/mental effects starting. I would stare at the wood grain and stone tiles and they would start to move and flow, and I found that I staring at them for what felt like long periods of time, but was actually only a minute or so. My friend came to meet me and I found that my voice sounded distant when I talked to her. We decided to walk around the neighbourhood for a while. As we were walking around and talking, I found that I didn't have much to say except for laughing a lot. My friend didn't know I was on anything, and I kept wondering if she noticed. If she did she didn't mention anything which was nice. My body and mind became more and more separate until I could no longer feel my body. My body wasn't exactly numb but I just wasn't paying any attention to it. Cars would drive by and they would leave tracers that were a few feet long. There were fractals everywhere and everything was distorting and warping and changing colour. The visuals were similar to 2C-E but with the warping I get on shrooms.
At 2 or so, we decided to walk to the park. I couldn't really talk except for saying "yeah" and laughing, but my friend is very talkative so she probably didn't care. My body felt as if it was dissolving into the air and my thought process was very altered. On my 700ug trip my mind felt very lucid but this was far from lucid. I felt as if my mind and being had dissolved into the universe and I was just a witness to my senses. I felt very connected to nature and calm and peaceful. Out of all my trips I've had so far (only about 5) this was the most intense ego-death experience I had. At one point I actually forgot I was on a drug. When I remembered I was tripping later, I found it hard to believe since this felt so natural.
My friend and I sat down under a tree for a while, where she proceeded to talk about her sex life, which I found hilarious. I just kept laughing at her. We talk about this stuff normally so she was probably weirded out by my laughing. The world around me continuted to warp and change colour. The trees and grass all turned into detailed fractals and geometric patterns. Sounds were warping and flanging. I was having some synesthesia, I would hear sounds and then feel them, or have them expressed visually. I experience grapheme-colour synesthesia normally, and I found that very pronounced. I would hear people talking and I would experience colours matching the words they were saying.
I tried to eat some of my sandwich but I was only able to take a few bites before putting it away since I couldn't taste it at all. We decided to walk back to our houses. We walked through the park by a river and it was extremely beautiful. All colours were enhanced and would appear as "layers", for example brown would appear and red glazed over green, similar to 2C-E, except more vivid. 2C-E made colours appear bright but pastel.
My friend went home then I arrived home at around 3:30. I had a hard time making decisions; it took me a while to decide whether to go home or to stay outside, and once I was inside I wanted to go outside again. I stayed inside though after deciding to do some watercolour painting. I've always wanted to paint while tripping. Watching the colours flow into each other is fascinating when sober, and it was even more wonderful while tripping. I painted bright clouds and mountains. Mixing colour gave me an intense pleasure. Watching as reds, yellows, and blues mixed together to make orange and green and purple and every colour in between was magical. The painting didn't turn out too bad either haha.
At around 5:30 I started to come down. I was still tripping pretty hard with crazy visuals but my ego was making its return. I started thinking a lot, about life and consciousness and the universe. I kept thinking about how consciousness originated. I have a hard time believing that cells and electrical impulses in our brains can create something so complex. I wondered whether consciousness was a result of sensory experiences or the other way around. I felt certain that consciousness was something that permeated the entire universe, sort of like gravity. It was just there and always had been. It interacted with the material world by means of living creatures. I felt that our brains acted as a sort of radio for this universal consciousness that filtered out our experiences from the ambiquious sea of consciousness into our own subjective experiences.
But then I started thinking if any of this was actually true or had a scientific basis or whether I only felt like it was true because I was tripping. I just couldn't stop thinking and each question led to another. (is this called a thought loop? I definitely felt like my mind was looping around.) Eventually I got tired of thinking so I decided to have dinner. I warmed up some rice and prepared some vegetables and I found them to be satisfying, although my sense of taste was not quite back yet.
I spend the rest of the evening reading articles about consciousness and browsing the internet. Mentally I was not quite down yet and I was still having visuals. Most of the warping and distorting had stopped, but I was seeing fractals on my carpet. I listened to some music for the first time all day. I love classical music while tripping so I listened to some of that and it was wonderful. I could hear all the different layers of music at once. I tried to go to sleep at around 12am but I couldn't fall asleep until around 2am (14 hours later!) because I was being distracted by the stunning CEVs. The next morning I woke up easier than usual despite only having 6-7 hours of sleep. I was back to baseline by the next morning, but I was in a good mood from the trip.
To conclude, this was definitely one of my favourite trips so far (although I've enjoyed all the trips I've had). It was the most intense I out of all of them I think, my previous ones being 14mg of 2C-E and 3.3g of shrooms. I would definitely repeat this experience and dosage. My favourite part was the lack of a body load, except for a bit of cramping and muscle tension, but no where near 2C-E. I loved the 2C-E visuals and the shroom headspace, and 25i-NBOMe seemed to take a bit of each of those, while still being unique. The thoughts I had during the comedown were definitely the most complex out of all my trips. I feel like this chemical would be great for understanding new mathematical or scientific concept. I would suggest not to try this dosage as a first experience though as it could be overwhelming, but to instead take 500-700ug to get a feel for the chemical. I know a lot of people don't like this chemical but it seems worthwhile at the right dose and in the proper set and setting.
Sorry this turned out so long! First real report I've written other than scribbles in my journal. :D
