my god my god, the hellish, fantastic, incredible absurdities... if you've been to THIS level with this shit then you'll have a glimpse of what this crazy chemical is doing to your brain cells...

edit: and apparently slight dosage increases can equal catastrophic results as i have discovered tonight by increasing 40mg, from my last trip which was merely extraordinary, to 50mg which is adequately indescribable

also, i feel obliged, now that i'm in a 'somewhat' coherent state, to attempt to describe exactly what happened to me tonight. at about 8:30 (Friday evening) i'm pretty buzzed on about 6 beers, so i decide to take that last bit of 2CI i have left over from last time, its about 50mg more or less, i really don't know the exact dose... it is a little higher than my last trip, i'm pretty sure at the time. so, i'm expecting something just as fantastic. anyway...

this trip borderlined on insanity. i found myself at times extremely lost and wandering around in hallucinogenic confusion. i would almost start to worry at times but then i would have the presense of mind to pull myself back and get a grip on reality. i would have to actually tell myself this... GET A GRIP ON REALITY ASH... as i'm looking at my hands grasp the countertops, as i realize i'm standing in the kitchen... i remember once being stuck in a corner of my pitch black room and really really being lost

at the peak of this hellish, surreal, fantastic trip, i can only describe extreme confusion. not in a bad way. just choas. disorder. confusion. hallucinations. no meaning at all. frightening at times but only in little nips. mostly just overpowering chaos.

this lasted for several hours with me catching a glimpse at the clock now and then... its 9:00, its 11:30, its 2:45

and during this time i found myself reading an absurd hypothetical dissection of the lord of the rings by noam chomsky in on of my brothers books (he's got tons of this kind of stuff, all of it absurd, most of it russian) so a large part of my trip went THERE. i must have lost at list a pint of body weight just in the tears of laughter i spent during those few hours

and after 8 hours, i see no end in sight to this trip... the confusion and ubiquitous chaos are form the most part gone, but the pretty heavy body load and the extreme hallucinations are still very HERE ya know. so, as soon as this feels like its tapering down to quasi baseline, i'll post it (3:30 am)

so... it all started around 8:30 pm last night, and its 5:30 am the next morning, and the whole feel of the trip is on the way down, but still very hallucinogenic and a lethargic tense body buzz. i just took 2 neurontin, hopefully that'll send me to snooze land

some other things i just remembered... i experienced this with my first 2CI trip, which was only about 12mg and quite mild. during this trip (this last one) there was a VERY strong female presense during this whole trip. its very hard to describe... its not like I felt female, but the essense of female was everywhere in my head. it was VERY strange. i almost forgot about this because the whole trip was so confusing.

i am remembering more and more as time goes on... i was outside on my balcony again, smoking a cigarette during the visual peak and it looked like there was a very high tech city on the horizon. lots of tall, organic looking skyscrapers filled with lights and curving around eachother, and lots of curvng roadways with lights flowing along them were radiating from this city, and dissappearing above my head and behind me. very colorful and extremely high tech. it was like an 'electric hallucination'. all of this was of course springing up from real lights on the horizon, of a real town. again, a lot like my last trip... like the movie tron. high tech and glowing like that

I just woke up after about 26 hours of sleep. i slept all through Saturday (after passing out on the neurontin at about 6:00 am). i got up Saturday evening and ate some pizza, drank a lot of water, and went back to sleep (it was about 7:30). i woke up again at 12:30, ate another piece of pizza, drank more water, went back to sleep. i finally woke up for good this morning (Sunday) at about 8:00

[changed "grams" to "mg" as i'm sure you didn't mean 12g of 2C-I ;) -ntc]

Good analysis on high-dosage 2C-I. I can't touch the stuff anymore, it just makes me feel like my entire aura and personality is a 'chemical'. It feels so unbelievable artificial that the sheer thought of how it *sometimes* makes you feel, makes me almost frightened.

I did have some good times on it though... I definitely did.
 
This report made me decide to go ahead and dose the 26mg cap of 2C-I that had been sitting in my freezer for ages. I was feeling pretty much "over" the drug and wanted to give it one last chance, as it were.

I wasn't completely disappointed! (As I had been with my last big dose of 2C-I, 30mg). While the mental trip is, IMO, shallow and marked by more confusion and less "insight" than I prefer in my trips, the visuals finally cranked up to full volume at about T+5:00, and they were verging on spectacular. Not quite touching 2C-E or the other HUGELY visual pea's in my book, but still nothing to scoff at. Overall it was a strong but not very deep +++ trip, if that makes any sense.

But, the physical side effects were pretty unpleasant. Very little nausea, but lots of sweating, and a persistent inner ear ache that, after my 30mg trip, lasted for weeks and weeks, and seems to be repeating itself again.
 
You must be a glutton for punishment going up to 50 mgs of 2 c-i. The most I've tried was around 30 mg and it was not what I would charaterize as fun. The only hallucinogen I can handle is the mild effects of MDMA. The disorientation can be too much. Shrooms are ok, too.

2 c-i simply provides too much disorientation without any "high." I mean, you fell pretty normal other than having sensational visuals. I really don't understand the thrill of a drug that doesn't provide much of a high... That's just my own opinion and I know a lot of people feel differently...
 
it wasn't punishment... i don't regret doing any of it, none of the trips were bad or scary. just kind of... well, like i described above, if confusion is your thing, then this is the drug for you. i agree, there isn't much 'high' with this drug, and the artificial aspect that Psilo described is spot on. its definitely interesting, and the visuals can just flat out be incredible, but i really don't see any potential with this drug for gaining any insight or having any revelations, as has been my experience with shrooms in the past. maybe its more fun to trip 2CI with somebody, all 3 of my trips have been by myself.

^^ It can be, at lower doses. My first ever 2C-I trip was just 12mg and I had a great time making my wife laugh hysterically. (She wasn't tripping, just me). However, on much more than that, I become too confused to communicate very effectively.
 
I hear you on the absurdity thing. My scale was off the day I weighed out my 20mg and I'm sure we ingested somewhere around 25-30. When it gets to the point where you cant tell whether your eyes are open or closed then you know you're tripping hard. It's the first and only time I've ever been completely incapacitated by any chemical. If a cop or anyone else would have come we could have done nothing at all to deal with it. It's truely fucked up.
 
i have only had that feeling of "lost in insanity" once...after loading up a bowl of salvia 10x in my bong, then sprinkling 5meodmt (about 15mgs) on top of it and covering it with some awesome pot.

that was smoked whilst on a 30mg 2CE trip.


it was definately....bizarre...
 
I've had stuff like this happen to me after having taken 20mg orally. Possibly not quite as strong, though.
