October 24, 2003

Today I plan on taking a 20 mg pill of 2,5-Dimethoxy-4-Iodophenethylamine (2C-I). It is my first time using 2C-I. I have used LSD on two other occasions, that’s all I have tripped on. This makes me quite inexperienced with the use of psychedelics.

Background

I’m 17 years old, male, 6 foot 7 inches tall, and 200 pounds. I have recently gotten accepted to the college of my choice, so I was very happy. But with that, it also seals my fate with leaving this area, and all my friends. Most of them I have known for years. In particular, two very close friends are staying, and I will be leaving them.

October 24, 2003 Before the Trip

I ate a normal breakfast, but at lunch I only had about 10 strawberries and I did not eat again for the rest of the day. I hade made sure that I got a good full nights rest before this experience. At 7 one of my friends, and his girlfriend and I went out to see the movie “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” which I must admit, was a very disappointing movie. We left the movie theater, and I went home.

October 24, 2003 The Trip

I took the pill at 10:15 pm. It was in a thin gel cap that was supposed to take 15-20 minutes to dissolve in my stomach.

10:15 My friend ‘A’ was on her computer, so I began talking to her over AIM. She has been going though a hard time. She is a very good and dedicated student, but is trying to get into really tough schools. She is stressed out with application deadlines. She is afraid to get rejected from these schools, so she is trying to impress them that much more. I try to consol her. I tell her how good of a writer she is. And not to worry about it, life isn’t going to end if you don’t get into to your number one choice. She leaves at 10:55 (+ 0:40). The talk with her changes my mood, instead of being disappointed about that movie, now I am happy I was able to help her.

11:00 (+ 0:45) It seems to really be taking a long time to come up at this point. My body has a sort of itch, or buzz. Not really anything too take notice, I’m off baseline, but not really anything significant. To rectify this, I decide that it might be a good time for a smoke. I go out to my garage and take 3 hitters (about 9 total hits). I don’t know whether it was the Cannabis or it was just starting to take hold, but when I came back was for sure a good +1.

11:10 (+ 0:55) I’m coming up very fast now. Easily a +2. The body feeling is feeling intense. But with the feeling, comes the nauseas. I am very glad I didn’t eat now. The visuals are really starting to come too. The ceiling is full of pattering. The colors are a little more pronounced. I look up at the ceiling and start watching the shadows move.

11:30 (+ 1:15) Bam! It’s hitting me hard. Its like the intensity just went up 10 fold. I’m now at a +3 for sure. The body feels immensely good. I cannot describe it. No word could ever explain how good this feels. It is the best I have ever felt on any substance period. I cannot stop smiling. The body and mind love this. I love this.

11:35 (+ 1:20) Although the body and mind likes this, the stomach doesn’t. it seems that another hitter is in order to call it down (so 3 more hits).

11:40 (+ 1:25) Questioning the hitter now. It did help the stomach somewhat, but now the visuals are even more intense. I know that I’m not a peak. If it is this strong now, how is it going to be at peak? I try not to think about it. I lay down on my couch. I leave my Favorite song on “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” what can I say, my dad was a Hugh Beatles fan. I can hear the music, but it seems distant. I look at the ceiling again. It is becoming more and more intense. My mind starts racing. Thought after thought. So fast that I can’t even complete one with out another one coming. I try to explain it to my friend ‘D’ who is also on his computer. I feel that I fail in my explanation. The feeling is to intease to explain. I get back on my couch, and start looking at a lamp. Slowly I can see the light waves. Its just seems like the waves are flowing from the light. Everything seems to be in a “flow”, the ceiling patterns have their own flow.

12:00 (+ 1:45) It is getting way to hard on the computer and couch. I need to leave. Get some place safe. I feel that I’m about to peak. I leave to the computer and go to my bed. I don’t notice anything odd about the way I walk. I stop off in the bathroom, and while there I look in the mirror. My eyes are rather large, they appear “deep.”

12:30 (+ 2:15) This has got to be peak. I lay in my bed and think to myself, “Show me what I need to see….” It is the most intense experience of my life. It is perhaps one of the most important experiences of my life. I see a lot of planets. Lines grow from each of the planets to every other planets. Then, it becomes 3 dimensional. The lines are no long black, but all sorts of colors. I feel like I’m looking at a map of not only the universe, but the universe and all its realities and dimensions.

I then get an overpowering thought. I think the maybe with 2C-I or LSD or any psychedelic lets us visit these other worlds, in other dimensions, in other realities. And maybe people in those worlds, use psychedelics to visit our world, because to them, this would be a trip. This give me an over all feeling of understanding. I understand the universe and all its mysteries. This feeling and with the body high is strong, it makes me shudder, I love it. To call is bliss, ecstasy or euphoric would be a hugh understatement. It is over powering. It is what I need to see. A good +3.

12:30-1:00 (+ 2:15 – 2:45) After the above thoughts, I move from thought to thought for what seems like an hours. At some point I go to grab my clock, but I don’t remember where it is. I try to look for my window for a reference point. Maybe it was because it was night and I didn’t have any lights on, but I couldn’t find window. This doesn’t upset me. I simply give up and decide to look for it later. I experience more thoughts that we either not important enough to remember, or I cannot remember them anyways. I remember that my temples felt like they were stretching, trying to open up my mind, to let all the possible information in. The visuals are still very intease.

1:00 (+ 2:45) Defiantly coming down. The thoughts are slowing. The visuals are still there, but are different. They aren’t so crazy. Its like looking at the world at a different point of view rather than crazy patterning. It is a lot more controllable. Still at +2 ½.

1:30 (+ 3:15) I feel like what I needed to see is over. It is time just to enjoy the visuals. I take a flashlight out and start shining it around the room. I watch the tracers of the flashlight. It is amusing to watch. I get bored of that and I watch colors in the different patterning.

2:00 (+ 3:45) I’m tired and hungry. I go down stairs and get back on my computer. I start talking to another friend who turns out to have taken 5-MEO-AMT. We share our night’s experiences. I am down to a +2 so I decide to smoke 3 more hitters. I don’t really feel like they did much.

2:30 (+ 4:15) I eat a full meal. It is the first food I have had in 14 hours and there fist meal in 19 hours. My sandwich tastes extra good.

3:00 (+ 4:45) I get off the computer. I feel very tired and mentally drained. I’m still at a +1. The body high is still there. It isn’t as good as it was. I go to my bed and listen to some music.

3:30 (+ 5:15) Very tired, tries to go to sleep.

4:00-4:30 (+ 5:45 – 6:15) I drift off to sleep.

11:00 a.m. Wake up, feel fine, still tired and mentally drained.

October 25, 2003 Retrospect

2C-I broke me down in a way I never thought possible. It showed my exactly what I need to see. It filled me with an understanding of the universe. It was everything I was hoping for and more. It broke down my reality, and showed me a new one. I don’t know I will ever be that same, or ever want to be the same. I was truly impress with 2C-I. It provided a lot of insight.

Will I try it again? Sure. But I don’t want to try it again that soon. This is a substance that needs respect. Use it wisely.
 
Nice report! I know what you mean about large doses (20+mg) hitting you all of a sudden. The first time I tried it (21mg) it was like one minute I was sober and the next minute my whole room was moving. It was a little disorienting to say the least for the next few minutes.

Sounds like you made the most of it =)

A lot of people with 2C-I experience, including myself, find that 15 to 17mg allows for the same depth of trip without feeling overwhelming or too intense on the body.
 
I liked this report alot, very detailed and one of the more mentaly rewarding 2-ci report out there. 2-ci still sounds a little to much of mind candy for me to really go ahead and try it though. Peace, Spinal

Try it at night while camping, best in the mountains or desert. It's not mind candy then. ;)
 
Excellent!
I really enjoy reading phenethylamines trips where the user reports introspection or deep mental states! Something you don't hear all that often!
