Just a half a mile from the railroad tracks
Other drugs/vitamins taken:
50 mg sertraline every other day
4 mg estradiol valerate every day
vitamin A, C, E and selenium combo pill taken a few hours before.

State at time of experience: On the tail end of a cold, but feeling mostly recovered from that. Generally tired from meds, mentally somewhat bored from a week of doing fuck all but otherwise fine. Was not planning to do the 3-FPM tonight but on the advice of some friends decided to give it a shot.

Most of the notes here were written on my phone while high, will try and edit them and summarise at the end.

21:56: T+00:00 20 mg down the hatch. Onwards to clubbing!

T+00:45 Starting to come up. Feel awaker but otherwise normal. Eyes starting to feel pinned open. Normal state of yawning suppressed from this point.

T+00:53 Comeup feels pretty slow, no idea if it's standard for this though. Just slowly creeping into my head.

T+00:57 Want to go prod BL but it's blocked on my phone. Will settle for meaningless blabber in this document. Feeling slightly up but not too much. All tiredness suppressed. Music not super improved but still waiting for club to really get rolling.

T+01:02 Starting to get that stimmy music love now. A bit more energy too. Definitely a fairly long come up when taken orally.

T+01:11 They played beartooth. It was pretty good, but I want to be higher. Dropping another 20 mg.

Gelcap dissolved in my mouth. Wow that tastes vile.

T+01:30 Club is starting to fill up. Still on minor high from first dose, second dose has not kicked in yet.

T+01:38 I think the second dose is starting to kick in. I swear nowhere around here gets going before midnight. Guess that's because the pubs don't close before then. (In retrospect I was probably feeling a wave from the first dose, not the second dose at this point).

T+01:42 Starting to feel some energy from it. (Again, probably wave from first dose).

T+01:54 Now second dose is actually kicking in.

T+02:06 Doesn't produce straight-up euphoria at this dose, more gives you energy and gets you super into music. It's still good though.

T+02:10 Tempted to hit another but this is a first time. Save the crazy for another time.

T+02:15 Could see this as a caffeine sub. Maybe I just need more to party. Another day though. (If I was to use this as a caffeine sub I'd use a smaller dose than this experience. The 20 mg level would be about right I think).

T+02:20 All systems go. Party till it drops or I do. Both doses fully active at this point, lots of energy to dance with, lights blasting into eyes felt great and whenever a song I new came on I lost myself in the music. It felt great, even without a major surge of euphoria from the drug alone.

Should have brought some sugar with me. Ah well. (I find sugary drinks are great for replacing all the energy you burn while dancing your arse off when you're high. Forgot to bring any this time, a mistake I was feeling later).

T+02:26 This all confirms my theory that uppers are the one true drug for music events.

T+02:32 Can't text old friend because no number. Balls.

Got to see enter shikari while high some time. Lightshow would be <3

T+02:46 To save my retinas or enjoy the lights, that is the choice. (The stage lights at the venue were aimed relatively close to eye level, which could be unpleasant when they hit you in the eyes but watching the lights was so nice while up that it was worth it).

T+03:02 Now I've been going a while I quite like it so far, wouldn't mind going for a bigger hit next time though. Hope it lasts 4 hours like I saw suggested.

T+03:06 Occasional waves of smileyness. (Generally when I get straight euphoria from a drug it pins my face into a big grin. 3-FPM did not have too much of that feeling, but it did show up occasionally, usually as waves).

T+03:29 Need a bit more to get full chatty I think. (I think it was more likely the enviroment was not suitable for chatting. I had a strong desire to talk to friends over IM all night long).

T+03:53 Seems to be fading a little. (This was probably just the waves mentioned earlier).

T+04:03 All I need is water to replace all this sweat. No need for breaks : D (Still had plenty of energy going through me, and was starting to get quite hot and sweat a fair amount. Really should have brought bottled water with me, but I didn't prepare in advance as this was a spur of the moment thing).

T+04:17 High seems somewhat sensitive to the music being played, or maybe I'm just coming down some. (Again, I think while the music did have some influence, this is likely more the waves effect of the high).

I want to chat to people and they're all in bed, the dicks.

T+04:23 Definitely starting to come down now. Tiredness is starting to creep in. Still proper into the music though.

T+04:34 At least the comedown is as slow as the comeup.

Timing is all screwy from redose, I'll have to get proper numbers tomorrow.

T+05:00 I can only headbang while high apparently. Too far down now to do it properly.

T+05:07 proper knackered now. Legs feel like they may give out. Time to get sports drinks. (At this point the club had kicked out. My legs felt somewhat weak, probably either from lack of sugar or salts lost from all the sweating, or perhaps simply too much jumping around while high).

It tastes like cold and life and I love it.

Summary: This felt like a pretty good drug. The long comeup is a bit of a downside, but the long tailoff nicely makes up for it. At the dose I was at it was easy to lose yourself in music, and I had plenty of energy for all the dumbarse dancing I felt like. I didn't get much straight up euphoria, but I did get some degree of alcohol-style losing yourself, and a fair degree of loss of inhibition. Kinda surprising I kept my shirt on the whole night really. The duration seemed to work out perfectly, though how much that was affected by the staggering of doses I don't know and will have to find out another time. I think if I'd had people to chat to it would have been better, but as it was it was fine. Another time I will see what higher doses have to offer, as it felt like there was something more just out of reach. Once I got home and tried to sleep I noticed music playing inside my head, not any noticable tune but just random instruments. It didn't seem scary or threatening, just sort of weird. It would go away if I moved my head, but return once I was lying still again. I didn't notice much in the way of after effects today, but with the cold I have had I'm not sure I would have noticed if I had a hangover on top of it. All in all, interested in trying this again and seeing what it has to offer, both for partying and as a production aid.
