Hi,
I've been a longtime reader of bluelight but just signed up today. I am going to be acquiring a small quantity of 2C-E in the new year, and am very excited to try it out, but I am a bit concerned about a physical side effect I have experienced on 2C-I and the possibility that it might affect me with 2C-E as well. If anyone else has had similar side-effects occur, or has heard about someone else having them on these chemicals, sharing your stories would be greatly appreciated.
I have tripped on 2C-I twice now. The first time, I eyeballed about 10-15mg and ate it in a capsule (I know eyeballing isn't a good idea and won't be doing that with the highly dose-sensitive and serious 2C-E), and had an very discrete but stimulated mental trip with a mild body high similar to MDMA or a decent dose of methylphenidate. For my second time, I took closer to 40mg, possibly a little more or less, and had an astoundingly visual trip, again with few mental effects. This time, however, the MDMA-like body high was greatly amplified for the first few hours of the trip, and around 4 hours after dosing turned into more of an uncomfortable and physically anxious "crack-out" like I get coming down from LSD. These negative sensations were accompanied by a noticeable pain in the chest area, a feeling of swelling and disconcerting numbness in the throat, and a major increase in saliva and phlegm production that made me feel like I had to constantly cough and spit. All three symptoms were very prominent and caused me some mental distress (probably based on prior reading I had done on 2C-I and the thyroid gland) until I managed to fall asleep about 10 hours after dosing. Even stranger, the feeling in my throat lasted for a good week after the trip, and the increased urge to spit (especially when smoking) lasted about another week after that. When I told some friends about it, they accounted it to my usual chain smoking, but unlike mushrooms or LSD I didn't feel the need to smoke much at all during the trip and only killed two or three cigarettes and took a few hits of weed prior to the symptoms manifesting themselves, so that obviously wasn't the problem.
While the trip was an amazing experience on the whole, and I very much enjoyed the mentally grounded state compared to confusing LSD or mushrooms, these physical side effects have been preventing me from experimenting with the substance again. I will definitely acknowledge that this might have been partially psychosomatic - the more I thought about the strange body problems, the more they bothered me, especially during the long and nervous comedown. This happened on Halloween of this year, so about two months ago. 2C-E sounds very intriguing to me, and I'm interested in doing a moderate dose for my first time, but if these kind of effects happen in certain people across multiple 2C chemicals I will likely start very small and work my way up.
I was also a little bit troubled by the fact that certain visual characteristics (starbusts around lights, etc) of that particular trip stuck around for a few days after, and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this phenomenon with either 2C-E or 2C-I. Nobody else who took 2C-I from my batch, even my friend who did a massive 60+mg dose, got these negative physical or lasting visual effects.
Thanks a lot!
