Hi Bluelight. I'm a new poster here(although I've been lurking around for quit a large amount of time) and I'm here basically to tell the story of a really close friend of mine.
My friend(we'll refer to as A) was a hardcore psychedelic user. I've done acid, mushrooms, 2C-E, ayahuasca, 2C-P(before this incident), several of the NBOMe compounds, as well as many other psychedelics, classics and rc's as well as smoking weed. Me and him had a constant running gag of "chasing the psychedelic dragon," and we would often take ridiculously large doses of psychedelics. Neither of us had any problems handling the experiences and this went on for a while.
4 weeks ago, me and my friend A decided to hangout. I was doing meth for the first time that day(i would recommend against it, it's not all that great). A decided to decline on trying meth, and instead asked me if he could dose some of my remaining 2C-P from a gram bag that I had bought around a year ago. Naturally, I said yes, A being a good friend and me not having any uses left for any 2c's(I long ago swore them off as colorful yet wholly uninteresting compounds). Wanting to just have a nice experience, nothing crazy, A dosed about 8mg's(give or take because of the scale being +/- 2mgs).
During his trip, he was completely normal. We had long conversations about almost nothing, chainsmoked cigarettes, took several walks, did the usual tripping things. A was absolutely fine, handling the experience perfectly. The next morning, A came down and was absolutely normal. No warning signs for what was about to happen. So, fastforward a couple days, I invited A back over to my house for some good psychedelic fun involving 25i-NBOMe. We had already had plans to trip that day, but he responded with "No thanks. I don't want to hang out." I found this odd, but decided to respect his wishes and left him alone.
2 days later, I received a phone call from A's dad. He told me that A was acting really confused, delirious, and had told his father that he had taken 2c-p and to call me for advice. I talked to his dad, and recommended that he wait another day to see if A's state improved, and if not, then to take him to the hospital.
Another several days passed, and I received a phone call from a somewhat frantic mother of A's. A's dad is a very easygoing, drug allowing guy, but his mother is rather uptight and chokeholding even though A is an adult. She asked me what he had taken, and informed me she was on the way to the hospital where A's dad had taken him. I tried to get more information as to where he was going, but she refused to tell me, and hung up.
3 weeks passed since A had been in the hospital, and I hadn't heard a word for him. I talked to his dad and his dad only said that things were "moving along."
So, today, A suddenly shows back up to our college classes together. He seems a bit confused, and when I ask him what had happened, mostly what I got out of him was that he didn't know. He seemed upset with me, but wouldn't say it.
He announced to our group of friends that he was quitting drugs permanently, to focus on school. And he also announced that he was going to church now. Before this happened, A was probably the least religious guy I know, and often sneered at people who are religious, so this came as a shock to me.
Now, he claims that he's forgotten much of what happened before the trip. He didn't say much else, and when I apologized for what happened to him, he told me "it's not cool, but he forgives and forgets." Also, he apologized for "name dropping" me, which I found out.
What my question is, what happened to him? He has taken higher doses of the exact batch of 2C-P, up to 20 milligrams, with no ill effects. And he's experienced with a plethora of psychedelic drugs. What could have caused this?
