2C-I visuals?

Was told the dosage in the caps was between 20-25 mg, and that it was 2C-I. No experience with any of the other 2Cx compounds before, including this one.

The visuals were completely unlike LSD or mushrooms, the only things I had to compare it to. Staring up at the moon all the clouds seemed to form a circle that was spiralling inwards toward it, and I kept getting flashes of what looked like english lettering across my vision. No breathing walls or anything like that, no color shifts, no persian rug effect, nothing seemed too warped or drippy. I looked at my cell phone and the light from it formed a thin but obvious 3D cube in the dark that remained completely static. I had just gotten my wisdom teeth pulled about 5 days earlier so I had the most insane and weird throbbing pains that travelled from my jaw down into my chest and even into my legs and feet very rapidly before centering back in my head. The visuals almost had a Magic Eye feel to them sometimes, like you had to look past certain things to be aware of them. Very strange. The lines around objects were definitely shifting but not in a way that I'd ever really seen before, it seemed so dreamlike and fuzzy.

Anyways, my question is, I've heard 2C-I is very visual, so I'm wondering if what I experienced is the full visual effect and I just wasn't accustomed to it quite yet, or if I possibly was underdosed, or what? My friend who took it with me apparently got no visuals whatsoever, although it feels like these are the sort of visuals that could possibly be easy to "miss" if you weren't "in tune" with them. This is a REALLY weird substance, gave me some seriously bad vibes at several points, but still highly interested in pursuing it further. Do all phenethylamines that are visual have the same weird qualities?

Sorry for the long post, but just really curious as to what other's experiences have been.
 
Have you seen the Lord of the Rings trilogy of movies? (Stay with me here...)

When Frodo puts the ring on, and everything goes hazy and wispy. That's exactly what 2C-I is like for me. Everything leaking, breathing, bleeding... I love it.

Yours doesn't sound like my experience. Are you certain on the purity of the compound?
 
I get tracers, that's pretty much it for me. Some minor texture shifting, and once a painting took on a 3D look to it. I've taken it more times than I can count.

I'm in the minority it seems. I get very little from this material in general (visual, mental, or otherwise) and have moved on from it.
 
i remember the scene but i'd have to see it again to tell you how close it was to my experience haha

no certainty whatsoever. a good good friend supplied it to me after testing it himself but i have no idea what his source was.

there was a certain point in the trip where things were definitely whisping around, and it seemed like textures were crawling/shifting, but there was no breathing to speak of.

it took about 2 1/2 hours to come up fully, after which i peaked for about 2-3 hours and then came down over the next however long. started out feeling sort of like a roll was coming on, and then once the trip really began i was incredibly exhausted feeling, almost like sluggishly tired. body load was incredibly heavy and seriously uncomfortable for a good portion of it, feverish hot and cold spots, my neck was stiff to the point of it being painful. i have long hair and if one of them fell and got caught on my arm the area it brushed up against felt like it had just been dumped into fluffy ice bath type thing.

all this hasn't stopped me from being interested in the chemical still, but, god, how fucking strange and insanely weird it was. i can't stress how different the visual effect was from anything else i've ever encountered. colored objects in the room would randomly come in and out of the foreground of my vision and form weird shapes/letters. if this wasn't 2C-I there's really no way of me knowing what it was so i'm not gonna really try and guess at it, but i did feel that distinct tension in my gut that i also get from MDMA.
 
The I visuals seemed a little dirty and scary to me. 2C-E seemed a lot cleaner.

i remember one of the predominate thoughts in my head during the trip was, "god this totally feels like some dirty half-ass frankenstein drug from fucking china." it was all sort of menacing and ugly, but not enough to turn me off from the substance completely. i'm hoping 2C-E will treat me nicer, i've got orders of both coming in as we speak.

EDIT: one of the other things that stood out really clearly in my memory was that wind and small sounds all sounded like voices. in fact, in retrospect, it may have just been voices. they were just kind of "whooo"ing and "hawshhh"ing, but it was a freaky feeling. sorta made me want to take this one to a haunted house sometime eh?

^^ yes there's definitely stimulation with this one, as there are with most PEA's, thus it is their nature. Typically more clear-headed as well as opposed to tryptamines (though not necessarily).

Heh yeah I know exactly what you mean mate. Just be careful with the E now, it's a lot less forgiving if you do get a bit twisted! Properly measured doses is a must, but it's a wonderful chemical :)

I have had that exact same conversation before lol.
 
The last time i did 2c-i it was maybe like 20-25mg and i was in the woods at night with minimal lighting to let me see in front of me....

All night vision was overtaken by fractal patterns and the ground and things swaying....

The sky was a mindfuck, i would look at it and it was one of those "this is too much for my brain to comprehend moments"
 
I've only taken 2ci a couple times, guessing the dose was around 25 mg the time i got really high off of it. The most memorable visual was laying on the bed and looking up at the ceiling only to see my reflection up there with a ocean of mandala like colors behind me, very nice flowing visuals, tracers and energy. The reflection on the ceiling happened that one time but blew my mind- lol.

I think its the exact opposite. 2ci isn't quite clean like LSD but its much "cleaner" than 2ce. 2ce has a huge body load.

2ci visuals are not as strong as 2ce, you have to take a good bit to get good visuals. swirling is really standard for me, but persian rug style stuff is pretty common for me too.
 
Fuck! How much was that from? Don't think I'd dare go that far...

No no... it's all fun. There is NO worrying. For me, it's "I have had 2CI, I feel fine, but this is a LOT of fun." in central London. :P
