2cb & other stuff -- 1st time -- as good as they say

Here is a story some one e-mailed me, seems to fit the forum:

Dear Psychoblast,

Last weekend I went to a music festival. I stayed up real late dancing to bands on Friday night into the wee hours. Had only gotten a few hours sleep by Saturday night. Was feeling too sore and tired to enjoy dancing to the great bands that were playing, which disappointed me. No interest in rolling (the after effects seem to outweigh the high these days). But a person had 2cb, which I'd always wanted to try.

Took 15 mg of 2cb around 9:30pm. I was told it could take up to 2 hours to kick in. Around 11:30pm, I thought I noticed some slight closed eye visuals, and a slight mood lift. But nothing much, still mostly sore and tired. Went back to camp around midnight and laid down for what was supposed to only be an hour, but wound up down for the night. So my first 2cb experience was a non-experience.

Sunday afternoon, back listening to bands. Feeling better now that I'm caught up on my sleep, but still kind of disappointed to miss the Saturday late night festivities and disappointed at no real 2cb experience (and a little worried I'd gotten bad stuff).

Anyway, I was deciding to make this last day a good one. Did a fair amount of yay, g, weed and even a few shrooms. Was feeling very nicely spun, the kind of great feeling that is what I always hope for mixing yay and g, though often the results are not so good because they seem to cancel each other out or make me feel crappy. But this time it was all good. Anyway, thinking back to the 2cb, realizing I had this other 15mg capsule of it. Take it around 5pm.

So, kept myself spun with the yay and g and weed boosted periodically throughout the rest of the night, for whatever that is worth. Anyway, things started to get "different" around 6pm or so. I started feeling decidedly pleasant. Not like a rolling "pleasure crushing down on your head like a ton of bricks" but like a "pleasure bubbling up from your gut like a swarm of rainbow butterflies." Anyway, there was a definite trippiness rolling doesn't have, a complexity (some have called it subtlety) to the experience. Very nice. I felt more clear headed than when rolling. Paying for things was not as difficult as when rolling. But also not as easy as when sober. So there was still some "dumbness" to the experience, just not as bad as when rolling. And sometimes people would talk to me, and I would worry that I'd have trouble answering coherently because I was messed up, but then I was surprised to hear myself answer in a very sober and reasonable sounding way. This happened a number of times, and each time it surprised me. So it was easy to seem straight on this.

Dancing was great on this, lights looked wonderful, women looked sexy, and music was just out of this world, one note melting like butter into the next. Some of the pleasures were semi-orgasmic. There were moments where I got a little worried about stuff, like having to work the next day. These worries would not have pierced an mdma roll, but 2cb seems to be gentler and, some have said, it comes and goes in waves rather than being a constant euphoria. I will say my experience overall was pretty constantly euphoric except for a couple moments of concern. But maybe the yay and g helped even it out. Or maybe the environment kept it good. When it seemed to fade after about 4 hours, some weed brought it back pretty good, also, for another couple of hours.

I've heard 15 mg described as a fairly light dose. I wonder if perhaps the 15mg from the prior night was still lingering and so enhanced the effect. I also think the shrooms might have enhanced the effect. Perhaps adding a gram of shrooms to 2cb is a way to stretch out your 2cb dollar.

No depression yet, rather a lingering pleasant attitude. No effect on appetite. In fact, food tasted amazing when I had a meal about 9 hours after dosing. And in the last 2 days since then, food and water have tasted better than normal, and I notice more beauty in the world (clouds, horizons, etc). I think I had a similar honeymoon phase after my first roll. Oh, no problems getting it up on this, either, fyi.

Anyway, for the moment I greatly prefer this to mdma. It is just such a more complex pleasure, and it feels freer and lighter whereas nowadays I feel like mdma bludgeons me into feeling good, 2cb just sort of coaxes it out of you. And without the high price tag that mdma has (or at least, so it seems right now). Also, I guess it is worth noting that yay did not cancel the 2cb euphoria as it tends to cancel a roll (IMO) which may be another selling point for 2cb.

Oh, one interesting after effect: in addition to noticing colors and tastes more over the last 2 days, I have also been more sensitive to pain. A cut I got that I would normally ignore is REALLY hurting me. And other little thing that normally I would not notice hurt. I wonder if 2cb works on a release of endorphins so that you have fewer to deal with pain in the days afterwards. Alternatively, this may not be attributable to the 2cb at all since I did do other things. But I thought I'd throw it out there. Feel free to post this on bluelight or erowid.

Thanks.

Well, there you go, one person's story.

Well well well!

Glad to see your friend had a good time. Its always nice to see when someone walks away from a new psychadelic having enjoyed themselves and had a bit of self discovery.

-plaz out-
 
you need about 25mg of 2cb to fully experience it.

if you take 25mg of pure 2cb you will have some EXTREME visuals that closely resemble a shroom trip.

light sources will become incredibly trippy and sparkly.

a pure 2CB trip only lasts about 45 minutes... BUT

if you take MDMA, then take the 2cb as soon as you start rolling, the 2CB will last 4-5 hours and you'll have the most amazing visuals ever.

this is from personal experience, repeated dozens of times.

2CB mixes PERFECTLY with ecstasy.
 
yep. pure 2cb only lasts for about 45 minutes. you may have a comedown period longer, but the majority of the trip is over in less than an hour.

if you take it along with MDMA, the visuals will last for 4 hours or more.

read erowid if you dont believe my personal experiences.

I've taken pure 2C-B and found the peak effects lasted a bit longer than 45 minutes. You must have an incredible metabolism. As with any drug, they do tend to effect some people differently.
 
how long is a "bit" ?

2cb alone is a very short trip.. way shorter than shrooms or lsd.. the only thing shorter would be DMT or salvia..

a DMT trip is less than 5 minutes, although the comedown can last a while.

Burning Hearts and Farts

There was a sustained peak for at least 1 1/2 hours. I don't tend to watch the clock when I trip but I know I experienced peak effects longer than 45 minutes. By 4 hours on 2C-B, I am largely down. By the sixth hour, only minor trails and a slight body-buzz remain.
 
^^^That's my usual experience with 2C-B. However, the last time I ate it, I only took 20 mg (what I had previously considered to be a low dose), and had a very intense, visual trip that lasted over 7 hours. The peak was easily 3 hours long. I took the 2C-B at about 1 AM, hit the peak at around 2:30, and I only started to feel like I was coming down around 4. Of course, I smoked some weed at 4:20 (I had not smoked previously that night), and it sent me right back up to the peak for at least another hour.
 
im not American but i assume "yay" is derived from the South American term for cocaine, iaio (sp?) pronounced "yay-o" :)
interesting reading...
 
From PIHKAL:

2C-B

DOSAGE: 12 - 24 mg.

DURATION: 4 - 8 h.

Which seems to fit the few experiences I have had with it. I think it is best suited for having quietly at home, I took 20mg at an indoor Infected Mushroom party and found the overload of sensory stimulii detracted from the more subtle aspect that I had previously enjoyed when taking it at home. Also, I highly recommend taking a good hit of MDA with it, the visuals are something else. like someone else mentioned, one of the few experiences have had comparable to mushrooms.
