Hi. This is my first trip report, so I'll make it short and sweet. For a little backround, 2C-I was actually the first psychedelic I'd ever used and it was a long time ago, about 3 or 4 years. I took the same amount then as well. I remember when taking it only minor visual activity, but I was also extremely drunk at the time and probably already out of my mind. After that point I got into a very long and overdone LSD phase. At my worst point I was dropping 2-3 hits 2-3 times a week and this lasted about 4 months. Needless to say I got very burned out. Well then I moved and it had been a while since I had taken LSD but got it again with who then was my new roomate. We each dropped 3 hits of this weird paper with what looked like blue japanese writing all over them. I tripped so hard that day, and really freaked out for a good 2 hours at least during the peak. Maybe it was the Mahavishnu Orchestra blasting the whole time from my record player. After that I decided not to do any psychedelics for some time. Now it's been about 8 months since that time and i'm back in with my parents and since then i've taken only one geltab haha.

Well now on to the actual report... Last night I took the 15mgs orally and actually felt some alerts within 40 mins or so. I was tripping with 6 other ppl all on the same dose. At about an hour in I had to throw up a few times, and no else seemed to have this problem but me. This soon passed and I felt I started coming up much sooner than everyone else for some reason. By the time I was peaking I was already thinking to myself "Wow, this is much more than I expected" Because I really didn't think I would be tripping from this, but I was. I looked in the mirror and my eyes were ALL pupils, the white in my eyes red.... I was getting swirling patterns in everything. Pretty beautiful, almost like I had taken 2 moderately dosed hits of LSD. I just kept looking at the carpet, and saw all the differently colors of it melt into the others, and had very large trails by this point. Well anyway things were going ok, I noticed not much of a headfuck which I very much enjoyed. Then the weed... I took a few lungfulls, and then I started to get a little wierd for the next 3 hours or so. Can't really explain how it was I felt, but it wasn't very good. Not until I started coming down. I started coming down around 5 hours and hit baseline at around 7 or 8 I believe. While coming down I had an awful awful headache that lasted until way after I had already come down, and also my arms are very very sore. Not sure what I can attribute this too but I definetly don't like it! All in all 2C-I was alright. I've got two more doses and also 4 hits of lsd waiting for me to eat sometime in the future but after yesterday I think I'll plan on doing these sometime in the distant rather than near future.

2C-I is definitely a potent little PEA. 16mg was plenty for me to reach a +3. But the headache factor was too much and now I won't try it again.

hey MGS, how would you compare 2ci to 2ce in terms of side effects? I'm also interested in your particular thoughts on the differences in overall effects. Thanks!
 
I don't have any 'side-effects' from 2C-E. The comedown is fine. As 2C-E comes on...there is a LOT of energy. But as long as I keep myself occupied (sex, a hike, etc)...I am fine. Once the peak arrives...the body feels great. One of the many reasons I consider 2C-E among the best. As far as effects, check out the big and dandy 2C-E thread to see my thoughts on 2C-E....I know I've written many paragraphs contrasting the various 2Cs. Just do a search.

I don't think 2C-I is a bad substance, but I do think its somewhat more shallow than traditional psychedelics (namely other pea's, to be fair) and I wouldnt do it again probably. It gave slight head-buzzing, in a bad way.. though not really a headache. More like an intense anxiety feeling.. in the body too I guess.

But it was fun for the few times I did it. Worthwhile to an extent.
 
To the OP:

Why do you still bother to do any psychedelics at all? It sounds like you have horrible, gut-wrenching experiences every time. Ever consider that you weren't meant to do them?
 
I'm unsure why you say "it sounds like i have horrible gut wrenching experiences everytime" when the only really difficult experience i had was the one really intense experience on lsd. before that i did alot of it and very often and had many many wonderful trips. my first trip on lsd was an incredible experience as well. i'm a little confused by your question, because it dosn;t make sense to me, for i'm in love with psychedelics and know that they are for me.

Sounds like a interesting experience, except the headaches, and pain lol.

Thanks for sharing.

Wierd, I've never gotten any sort of negative physical effects from 2ci and I've taken as much as 30mg
