2C-C (20mg sublingually) -- 3rd time -- Soft and Pleasant Introspection

[forest walker]

2-CC, 20mg sublingually, 3rd time

I decided tonight to go ahead and try 2-CC by taking it sublingually. I'd been curious and earlier in the evening had taken a valium (before dinner), and was feeling like doing something. This is a report to the best of my recollections but I feel is pretty accurate.


10.00 - 20mg 2-CC sublingually, I've tasted worse.

10.07 - All of the chemical has dissolved.

10.45 - Noticing small effects, slight crispness to things but that's about it

11.15 - Still not feeling as though I'm "tripping", I smoke a small bowl, pack one to go, and decide to go for a walk.

12.40 - Get back from walk, it's a beautiful night outside, there were times where trees and scenery were "alive" but nothing spectacular in the field of visuals, introspect was soft and pleasant and general sense of euphoria was felt on the later half of the walk. Interaction with people at school food store was easy.

1.00 - Smoke previously packed large bowl. Very enjoyable. At this point the sunset background on my computer will shimmer and shift if I allow it to.

1.20 - Trip has yet to take a step up in strength though I started feeling the same second phase as I noticed with 36mg orally. Still not as strong but feeling relaxed and reminesant, close my eyes and visuals are nice and soft.

1.40 - Feeling hot and slightly nasuas (sp?) so I get up and open a window, turn on a fan and sit in a chair, the lights in the room have been off, except small desk light, and I find that sitting in the darkness has a cooling and calming effect on me.

3.30 - Phone rings several times and wakes me up, twits didn't even leave a message, apparently I had fallen asleep after returning to my hammock, getting hot and nasuas and returning to my chair, when I feel asleep I do not know. The 2-CC seems to have finished it's course and the soft afterglow remains.


I would like to make a few notes about this experience. First, my sinuses were relatively fine throughout the trip, a strong low pressure system moved the area tonight and that always upsets my sinuses some but the congestion I experienced last week did not happen this time. Second, while this trip was not to the same degree of intensity as even my first 33 mg oral dose, it had all the elements of a well rounded trip. I feel that it was still an enjoyable evening. However, I think that next time I will go back to oral dosing.

Do you think that the 20mg would have been more intense had you swallowed it?

 

[forest walker]

My lowest oral dose has been 33mg. Last night's trip was definately less intense than the 33mg oral. Whether the 20mg would be more effective swallowed or sublingual I don't know for sure, but, I feel that the sublingual would be more intense mg per mg than if swallowed but the ratio between the two "seems" that it would close to 1. This is just my observation though and other than 4ACO-DiPT a couple times my experience with the research chems has been limited to my recent adventures with 2-CC. For what it is worth, next time I believe I am going to just go with 40 mg down the throat.

Thanks for sharing =)

I can only compare 2C-I in sublingual vs. oral doses, but my impression was that 2C-I was only slightly more potent taken sublingually. The trip did come on in about 2/3 the time it would had I taken an oral dose.

Bu-Bump. This didn't came up through searching; title is spelled wrong..

I think that oral dosing is the most effective and/or comfortable with most of the PEA's. Sublingual sounds as appealing as licking battery acid.. Also shortens the duration it seems, or that could've been attributed by the small dosage.

^^^^^^^^

Just based on this report, the timing seemed normal for 2C-C. But again, that's just based on this report and my experience with 2C-C. Never taken any psychedelic sublingually. Never plan on other than maybe chewing some Salvia divinorum leaves if they ever call me again.

 

[Blowmonkey]

Guess it is. Just looked up Pihkals duration again, and it's listed as 4-8 hours there. So 5 hours should be allright for 20 mg..

 

[Meo_dmster]

Although the reported 5 hours about normal for 2c-c, I would still venture a guess that it would have lasted a little longer if it was swallowed. Haha, I have to agree with Blowmonkey that the idea putting bitter chemicals under your tough "is as appealing as licking battery acid," but there are ways around this(mix the desired chem in a little bit of honey and let it dissolve under your tongue). The main attraction to sublinqual doseing for me is the quicker come up, slightly smaller dose and lack of nausea, particularly nice for 2c-i. I kind of look at it as a compromise between eating and snorting a chemical, but with less risk/damage from snorting it. Its a method I think a lot of people over look, I did for along time. Since 2c-c already hits quick and painlessly, I doubt that putting it under your tongue would make too much of a difference.

First off - I see that you went ahead and changed the thread title, this report was meant to provide information to others, so if it wasn't searchable before, I'm glad it is now.

Second - The taste of the 2c-c didn't bother me too much at all, after a minute I didn't notice it and it didn't take very long to disolve completely. Though I definately took a drink of a tasty beverage after I felt it was all gone.

The duration of the trip was shorter than my other experiences with oral dosing. The come up was only a little bit faster too. I haven't gotten any nausea with 2c-c other than a couple minutes of slight discomfort. I will say that I am glad I tried it sublingually but I still don't have a desire to do it again. Last weekend I went backpacking and took 41 mg orally and enjoyed it very much. My sinuses held up just fine on the 41mg orally so I still contribute my sinus problems during my second experience with 2c-c to the small head cold I was getting over.

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking!

Sweet as.. thanks for the report

I only really dose MDMA sublingually, to avoid the nausea. I never tried with any other phenethylamine although I would do anything to rid my trips of constant nausea.

 

[bluedolphin]

Actually sublingual 2C-I wasn't bad at all. I tried that at least a couple times. It kind of numbed my gums and allowed me to get used to the flavor rather quickly.

As for the duration, it is the same. The only reason the trip is shorter is because you don't have to wait as long for the effects to kick in. *Perhaps* the come-up is a slightly quicker process as well. But overall duration is the same.

I did this with 2C-I to relieve stomach cramps and acid reflux that it sometimes gives me, and it made no difference if I ate it or took it sublingually.

I know its not the same as nausea but it seems like at least some of the G-I effects of PEAs are not directly related to the presence of the chemical in your stomach.
