I've taken 2c-i many times before, and consider myself rather comfortable with this chemical. I was a little anxious to take it again, especially because I was at work.

T +00 - Have an 8 hour work day, I'm about an hour in, and take ~15 mg. This is only half of what I brought with me, but I want to start low as I do have to be able to work, and I will be on the floor around customers/coworkers/manangment.

T +1.5h - Not feeling all that much, decide to take the rest. About 6.5 hours of work left.

T+ 2h - I'm feeling a bit cold, put my hoodie on. Although I get cold a lot for some reason on 2c-i, I am working in/out of a 40 degree F refrigorator, so it's nothing unusual. Still able to do my job fine, and communicate fine. 6 hours of work left.

T+ 4h - Starting to feel it a little more, perhaps a mild + or a very weak ++. Still able to maintain normal appearence. Still 4 hours of work, bummer.

T+ 5h - It's odd, I'm only at like a + while I'm working, but I stopped to look at my reflection, and was instantly at a definate +++. Within seconds realized that there were customers all around me, continued working, and was back to a +/weak ++ right away.

T+ 6h - Only if I concentrate do I find the effects of 2c-i to really be apparent. Also, it seems that taking two 15mg doses an hour or two apart is not NEAR the same as taking 30mg at the same time. The rest of the work day continued to be a + or weak ++, almost like I was kinda stoned, but not even really baked or anything.

T+ 8h - Done work, decide to drive to gf's house. Able to drive fine, just a little tired, mildly stoned-like state.

T+8.5h to 10h - Talk to gf, feels good to cuddle a bit, look up at her suspended type ceiling and notice that the little dots in it are moving around, things breathing a bit. This was probably the only really interesting part of the trip.

T+ 11h - I drove back home, chilled at the computer for a few minutes, and went to sleep.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

All in all, a waste of time. I'll never (well, almost never) do things like 2c-i at work again. It seemed that unless I really just concentrated, I was almost completely unaffected. I think that also has to do with the fact that I took two smaller doses instead of one large one. Word to the wise - Do NOT do this! It made the trip a leeeeetle bit longer, but took the intensity down to the not-worthwhile level. Anyone else have experiance with this ? 2c-i really is a chemical much better suited to relaxing, viewing nature, talking with loved ones (or close friends), chilling to music, etc. While I can enjoy a nice bowl at work, 2c-i just sucked at work.

Again, this was all just my personal experiance, and I would love for people to comment with their own experiances, especially the multiple vs single dose idea, which seems very interesting.


Edit: Sorry the actual report is not longer, but it was just such a weak experiance. How much can be said about a + experiance while you have to work ?
 
You must have a natural high tolerence or a high tolerance from too much use if you can take 30mg of 2C-I at work and act completely normal...
 
go back and tell your dealer his 2ci is dodgy! 30mg should have had you well fucked, and work out of the question! still, it takes a special job to perform suitably whilst tripping.
 
It was dairy at a grocer, had to count for and bring out milk/eggs/yougurt/etc.
And there's no need to tell the dealer anything. Without incrimanating anyone, just trust me, it's certainly 100% legit, noncut labgrade. I have used the substance before though, quite often.
 
Wow, you're not kidding about "quite often" if 30mg doesn't wreck you. How often is that in terms of time?
 
Probably because your job requires you to act a certain way. And to act that way you are expected to feel a certain way. So when you would remember that you were at your job, you would feel similar to how you're supposed to feel there. And then when you forget (looking at reflection) you'd feel the effects of the drug up to +++.
 
Well, I may have had a bit of tolerance at the time (2c-i tolerance isn't really well known yet, is it?), but prior experiances with similar amounts of time in between have been great. I really think it has to do with the time spread between the two doses.
 
I've eaten 30mg of 2C-I in one go and been, frankly, pretty disappointed. This was from a batch that could have been a little degraded but was certainly at least 90% pure. I think for some people 2C-I just has diminishing returns. My best trips with it were at 16mg -- which felt just about as strong as 30.

Most of the 2C's are pretty easy to "front" on, at least until you get to insane doses. I've never tried doing one at work, but I can see it, especially for a less demanding job. The exception maybe with 2C-T-7.
 
I wonder...

It could be because of the cold.. I went swimming this morning on 10 mgs
of 2C-1 and barely noticed it at all because of the chilly early morning
waters.
 
it may not be so much tolerance but just set and setting really. I found my first time doing 2ci (around the 40mg mark first dose) well it was fuckin cool but when I had an argument with my parents about financial crap, I sobered up quick smart and thought my trip just ended...but got in my mates car after an hour and it all came back at me twice as hard....

so yeah...set and setting I guess...

Peace Out
 
Yeah, 2ci can be a bit of a waste. I like its flexibility around functioning in the straight mental universe, but it doesn't have the zoomboomdoom that many of the classic psychedelic agents have. It seems like more of a creative working smart drug quality to it. I've liked it in very informal not exactly work situations like break even if we can bartending or other volunteer spots. It has a speedy sobriety to it.

T+ 2h - I'm feeling a bit cold, put my hoodie on. Although I get cold a lot for some reason on 2c-i, I am working in/out of a 40 degree F refrigorator, so it's nothing unusual. Still able to do my job fine, and communicate fine. 6 hours of work left.

I've heard friends talk about the chills. I get overheated easy as pie, so I probably just enjoy that part.

It does have a waviness peaks and valleys dimension to it. The first time a few freinds tried it in a social setting they just found it euphoric, but when they got home, they got the classic "My hands are small" and the woodgrain is woozy effect.

fully agree, same thing happened w/ me. Although some people do report that they skyrocket into a pretty intense trip when they get into the mid-high 20's mg, and this is one of those drugs that has such a wide variety of different effects on each person, can never tell how its going to turn out.

My first trip on it was great, second was average, and 3rd (& final) was crap, and I don't plan on doing it again.
