Psychedelics are interesting substances, to say the least. Each, having their own unique characteristics. Although every substance is different, the similarities in their similar compounds become apparent. I recently acquired a couple samples of 2C-E. I had herd many great things bout its "beautiful" visuals and was highly looking forward to trying this substance.

It was about 7pm and I was at the park with some friends when I decided to take the first 20mg dose I had. I wanted to experience the effects before we arrived at the techno party we all had planned for the night. This way, I could prepare myself mentally for what I would have to put up with and go through at the party.

T+1:00 - Its getting dark and we are getting ready to leave the park, I'm feeling a bit of anxiety but I'm not sure if its the come up or the social tension created by some friends acting dumb and my mild embarrassment to be affiliated with them for the things they are doing.Sometimes they seem to forget where they are. I haven't noticed any visual distortions as of yet, yet colors seem to be slightly more "pretty" and its getting dark so I may just be missing plenty of details.

T+2:00 - I'm with my friends who are eating, getting their energy for the night. I, however, did not have an appetite. I had some fries but I did not want to eat anything big. I'm starting to feel social paranoia. I'm not scared of people, but I'm getting that feeling that anyone who makes eye contact will know I'm on some sort of drug. I go to check myself in the restroom, but there are no mirrors. The tiles, on the other hand, seem to be glowing with color and warmth. Although they are a simple tan color, they seem alive and full of energy. Cartoon like, if you will. I start getting antsy as it approaches time for us to head out, its only a 20 minute drive or so to where we are trying to get to, but i feel the need to leave as soon as possible. It's becoming to dull and boring staying here.

T+3:00-8:00 - We arrive at the party and I'm eager to get inside. I have been to parties thrown by this group before and they have all been nothing short of amazing. Its still fairly empty when we arrive, after all when a Party goes from 10pm-8am, you don't expect too many people to get there before 11.
The visual setup is amazing, by far the best setup I have seen yet. The music us great, as always. At this point it begins to become apparent I am under the influence of a 2C compound. I cant say this for all, but i have noticed with myself, that, 2C chemicals distort my concept of time. Some, more than others. I begin to wonder how long I have been at the party, weather it be 5 minutes or 5 hours. It's hard to concentrate on time with the music going and all the visuals distracting me, taking my attention away from the thoughts at mind. I guess it doesn't matter what time it is or how long I had been there. If its still dark outside then I know its not close to being over.I begin to notice that everyone around me looks familiar, but I know I don't know them mainly because multiple people all look like the same person. Facial characteristics begin to all look the same, everyone with a bear looks like everyone with a beard. everyone looks like a friend or someone from my past. I know most of these people are strangers but the fact that they all look like people I know I feel comfortable. My legs feel like jello, I know this is from the 2C-E because its not a fatigue jello, but more of a body high, I can feel it throughout my whole body, but my legs the most as for they're what is keeping me standing up. Its roughly 4am when I start realizing I am returning to sobriety, my energy is coming back and I feel fresh and rejuvenated.

I wait till about 5am or so to take my second 20mg dose. I figure by this time the sun should be coming up when I'm beginning to feel the entry effects of the substance. I have a good 3 hours left of this party then I'm off to a friends house I haven't seen in a while to spend the weekend with and do some catching up. He's not big on psychedelics. However, He respects my choice to use them and will be understanding of me still tripping and be interested in learning about what I am currently experiencing.

T+11:00 - The sun is beginning to come up, and after tripping, then sobering up, it is easy for me to notice that I am beginning to tip yet again. I'm starting to feel extra social. I see this girl I have seen before. I am compelled to go talk to her. However with this boost in confidence I decide its a bad time, I don't like to meet people I would consider making a friend while under the influence of anything, weather it be weed or alcohol. It risks giving off the wrong impression of who I am.

T+12:00 - Not too many people left inside and most of my friends have left. My ride decides its time to head out and I agree. We get ready to head out but I didn't realize in the darkness inside exactly how visual this stuff truly was. I'm not sure if its the fact that I had recently taken 20mg less than 10 hours before redosing, but the visuals are way more intense. Everything seems to have more color, and all those colors have energy pulsing from them. I notice the fabric of the interior of the car and all the small details jump out at me as all the lines warp and twist in a pulsing yet melting manner.

T+13:00 - I'm now at my friends house, I'm a bit antsy, but I just got out of a warehouse with music blasting in my ears for the past 8 hours. Going from that to a small studio apartment, anyone would be antsy. My friend packs a few bowls for us to smoke and chill out. The smoke doesn't seem to burn my lungs as much as it normally would. The weed begins to calm me down so I don't feel so antsy. The visuals on the other hand continue to grow.

T+14:00-20:00 - My friend is going back to sleep, I figure I might as well get my rest. I lay down and flip through the channels on TV, but nothing is interesting me. The walls are stretching and melting, the ceiling is rising and the last place i care to give any of my attention is to TV. I decide to give in and just la back and enjoy the visuals, I close my eyes and drift off into my mind. I know I'm not falling asleep anytime soon, although comfortable my mind is all over the place. Sleep deprivation is kicking in as I can feel random muscles twitching. I still hear music in my head and these closed eye visuals are more like lucid dreams. From the moment I close my eyes I am immersed into this dreamworld. It looks as real as the real world, yet nothing quite makes sense. I noticed that George of the Jungle was on TV. I tried to watch a bit of the movie but everything looks so fake and obviously acted out. My vision is so animated and clear everything looks as if out of a comic book. I can predict everything that is about to happen, and all the stage props and setting look extremely staged and fake. It is obvious that the vegetation is not real nor is most of the sets that were used for the movie. I can't take much more of watching the movie, so I go back to my closed eye visuals and tangent thoughts about traveling through time and contacting friends int he 4th dimension. I drift in and out of sleep not realizing how much time has been going by. its 2pm before I realize it and I have for the most part come back to sobriety. I feel awake again, rested and ready to start my day, even though I know I didn't get much sleep, If any.

Over all I had a great trip, I have learned to respect and appreciate the 2C family very strongly. I don't think they are really party drugs, or at least not for me. rather way to expand your mind and enhance your environment. I would like to test this substance further, Maybe by mixing with some LSD to unleash its full potential. Although I don't find this to be necessary. It's a perfect substance by itself.

Nice report! 2C-E is a weird one for me, and I like it a lot, but I definitely don't do it that often.

I've come to think of 2 things that the 'E' could stand for to me... one is ENERGETIC and one is ETHEREAL.

Energetic because like you said, your mind becomes very active and for such a prolonged period of time you are not able to drift off to unconsciousness even if you wanted to. And Ethereal because 2C-E makes everything around you seem magical and mystified without ever actually showing you whats going on.


Good stuff alex
