Hello! I'm doing an ayahuasca retreat soon, and I have an occasion on which I'd like to do some 2CB about 6 days before the retreat begins. I typically follow dieta pretty closely for two weeks before an ayahuasca trip, and I'm wondering if doing 2CB this close to ayahuasca has the potential to inhibit my ayahuasca experience. I'm reasonably sure that my mind will be in the right place, but I'm wondering if chemically my body might not be back to normal.
I've seen information online that suggests that 6 days is barely enough to recover from MDMA prior to an ayahuasca trip, but I have yet to read any specific accounts on 2CB. Most retreat centers seem to advise not doing MDMA or 2CB 3-7 days prior to ayahuasca. I'm far from an expert on this stuff, but it seems the problem with MDMA is serotonin depletion, but I've read [conflicting] reports that 2CB does not deplete serotonin like MDMA. My apologies if I misunderstood what I read.
Any input would be greatly appreciated. I'm leaning towards not doing the 2CB just to be safe, but I'd love to hear input from someone more knowledgeable.
Thank you!
