Hey so it's been a few years since I've posted trip reports. It's been around 3 since I've done 2C-I. I thought this experience needed mentioning as wow it's nothing I've experienced from 2C-I before!! So I will try to keep things brief... wish me luck! :)

So last time around 3 years ago I had this 2C-I that was a sandy consistency. It did sparkle in the light but it was a light tan colour with a pink tinge. The 5 or so experiences on it usually at approx 20mg and once at approx 30-35mg did not give much on the visual side of things. Usually just a mild oozing and pulsing of colours. Only once did I get some patterning only for around 10mins at the peak came on and that was because I ate it on an empty stomach so it hit me harder and I was in really dark room. Usually during most of the experience I had a lot of energy (too much energy) and my head was fairly together. Once (the time where I did approx 30-35mg) I even went out to a rave and danced solid all night and was in the best of moods.

So this latest batch I got is a really nice white colour. Tiny little pointed crystals that sparkle in the light. I first started out the night by weighing up what I have. I scrape up some of the chemical dust (as well as real dust) from the table and eat it. It weighed around 2-4mgs. It had only a mild 2C taste. I like to do this before taking a new batch of chemicals because some chemical suppliers have been known in the past to ship DOx chemicals where they meant to ship 2Cx chemicals. I do some things over the next 2hrs roughly. Luckily there are no trip feelings kicking in and I'm pretty sure I'm safe and not gotten a DOx chemical by accident. I weigh up 20mg. Maybe 1 or 2mg over and throw it in some sprite. I also wash the bag out into my sprite that has some dust left in it. I wouldn't thing it would have more than 3 or 4mg at most in it. So I may have maybe 25mg in my glass. It could well only just over 20mg. The time is close to 1am. I chug the drink on an empty stomach. I want to get maximum effects!! I then wait 10mins and then eat my dinner. At T+20mins I am feeling a bit weird, floaty, some stronger colours. I start to feel a bit unsettled in my stomach. Over the next 10-20mins I get much more of a queasy feeling. I go to my room and lay down. I feel really tired. I feel cold too and jump in bed with clothes, hoodie and all. Over the next 20mins or so I slowly warm up and relax a bit. I feel really smashed and don't have any desire to leave the bed. I mash out for ages. The visuals kick in. All I have it the laserpod on for light in my room. All my posters are splitting into colours. Like yellow, green, red. Everything goes blurry and is in geometric diagonal patterns. There are a lot of patterns. Over the next few hours I become much more relaxed. I go to the bathroom. It's only then that I switch on a light and realise that the patterns are just as strong if not stronger with the lights on! My whole field of vision is blurry and I cannot focus sharply on anything, like when I am really drunk. Absolutely all my field of vision is split colours and geometric angled patterns!! This is wild! Probably even more so than I've had on 18mg of 2C-E!! I feel very silly because I'm so retarded with all these visuals I can't look at anything straight! I go back to my room and just chill out in bed for hours. The visuals are wild. I can't help but laugh sometimes at how bad my vision is!! I don't feel really afraid or tripped out too much either. The sleepiness has turned into a nice awake dreamy state by around 5hrs in. I am still happy to lye in bed and think about so many things. Sometimes spiritual, and very insightful things. I am really impressed that this 2C-I experience has been a whole totally new dimension I never new 2C-I could reach. One very amusing and interesting visual effect was out of the corner of my right eye. Quite often at random intervals my field of vision would increase! All of a sudden a patch in the lower right would become 'clear' or transparent that had previously been dark and I could now see there. As this would happen quite often my whole field of vision would go lighter and brighter like someone was turning up the light dimmer. Many times I experienced the patch in my lower right field of vision increase it was while I was laying down. My right eye would have the quilt near it limiting my vision. Sometimes the patch would go transparent for a number of seconds and I swear it was like I could see my right shoulder through the quit, and through my t-shirt. How strange?

Anyway the trip went on for quite a long time. At around 08:00 - 09:00hrs the visuals were still there but mostly gone. I then got a fair bit more energy including some "drummers foot". Around 10:30 hrs I got a nasty headache and took 200mg of ibuprofen which helped a lot. I also took 3 doses (which is the recommended dose) of some herbal insomnia pills. They contain Valerian root, hops, passionflower. I have big pupils and do not feel like I will sleep for at least another 2 hours. I chill in my room. I looked at my clock at 14:00 I have been laying in bed and do not feel like I have slept yet. I do not remember any waking up and defiantly no dreams so I think maybe I haven't been able to sleep yet but I can not be sure. Later I look and the time 17:00. I really feel totally relaxed, sleepy and at peace like the trip is fully over. Over the next few hours I am sure I sleep. I wake up, realise I have woken up and also am conscious of dreams.

Did it really keep me awake for 13 or even 16hrs?!? Did maybe the herbal insomnia pills make me fall asleep and wake up without realising I had been asleep??

I can't believe how amazing this 2C-I was!!! It totally floored me! I could not go out dancing all night on this dose like the stuff I had 3 years ago! Strangely I was fairly relaxed during the trip and not all speedy like other times! This 2C-I was far more psychedelic than what I have had before. I am really impressed. I only wish now I new what dose is good to go out and dance on instead of being totally floored!.

Yeah, 2C-I is a decent trip, its just that monster headache I get when coming down.
It just totaly ruins the trip for me and isn't worth takeing.

2C-E on the other hand ;)
 
I have found 2c-i to be a very different drug on occasions. I have taken the compound 4 times (all between 20-25mgs). 2 of those times were just mild stimulation, and light tripping. One time, I swear I was close to a +4. If I would have taken it without knowing what it was, I would have never guessed 2c-i. It was just different than my previous trips in all aspects. It was beautiful. And one time (25mgs) was just way too much stimulation with mild tripping. I felt like my body was going into convulsions.

All times the compound came from the same vial.

You could have had unpure crap before. Or you could have just had a different experience.

I have found when it hits you right, 2c-i can be an amazing drug. The problem is that it doesn't seem to "hit you right" enough..
 
two things:

corners of baggies sometimes hold a lot more than you'd think

Every time anyone I know has complained about a come-down headache, it was because they were clenching their jaw throughout the trip.
 
2C-I was the first of many RC adventures. I have had quality 2C-I, and I would say that 16mgs is a good dose. No lower, no higher. The "pent-up" stimulation of 2C-I can become uncomfortable. If I want a heavy trip, I'd definitely dive into some 2C-E again. Nothing like it I tell you. :)
 
Heh, my first 2c-i experience was on a high dose because for some reason I trusted my friend instead of asking how much was in the capsule. 8) I THINK it was 35 mg, although it might have been 45. Regardless, it was insane - my entire field of vision was overtaken by intense visuals, and now if I take 15 or 16 it just isn't nearly as good, hehe. 20 is a good dose for me, sufficient to trip my ass off with great visuals and euphoria.

It does keep me awake forever though.
 
I have done some more experiments and definitely 20mg is a descent trip for me but the visuals do not cover my whole field of vision like they did on this trip which was maybe around 24-25mg.

I had another play with 2C-I this time I took approx 25mg (20mg was weighed out previously and another previously weighed 20mg was carefully cut into quarters). I did not experience even the visuals from the week before on 20mg of 2C-I I would put this down to cross tolerance from experimenting with large amounts of 2C-D the night before. Unfortunately I don't think I was able to sleep for maybe 14hr after taking the 25mg of 2C-I. Maybe if I tried really hard I could have slept after 12. One thing seems likely, the extra 5mg really extends the duration or at least the insomnia at the end of the trip.

One random question. When I sometimes seem to push my body a bit too much with psychedelic drugs either by staying up late and having a buch of different drugs or just having maybe a high dosage I can get this horrible physical side effect. I feel like I am busting to go to the bathroom. I go to the bathroom, take a leak but the feeling like I really need to go still remains. This is such a painful and annoiing feeling and can can go on for hours or sometimes until most of the drugs are out of my system. It only happens some times and I was wondering anyone else has had this and knows of any supplements or anything that can help with this?
 
^ Maybe you should take a hint from your body and not push it? Nobody needs a high dose of psychedelics. No body needs to take psychedelics while sleep deprived.

And yes, my 2C-I was high-quality and all I needed was 17mg. Never taken more, never felt the need to do so.
