A summery of my experiences with 5-MeO-DiPT

I carefully measured out 100 mg 5-MeO-DiPT and dissolved it in 50 ml of distilled water. Obviously, this gave me a solution containing 2 mg of the substance per ml of water.
Experience #1 2/24/01
For my first experiment I took 5.5 ml (11 mg). This way too high of a dosage for me, especially then considering it was my first time with the substance. Many of the problems I ran into were due to the fact that I took so much. As we all know, you'll never know how a material will effect you until it effects you.
What can I say about 5-MeO-DiPT? Well it is the only psychedelic I've tried so far that I just don't too much care for. It really doesn't do too much to make it worth taking. I've never been crazy about 2C-T-2, but at least that substance provided a very rewarding experience, one with many positive aspects. 5-MeO-DiPT just doesn't really agree with me at all.
This material tastes extremely foul, and the orange juice that contained it did little to cover up the bitter taste. The effects began within twenty minutes of ingestion. Within an hour, I was at a fair +3 and had difficulty moving. At one point, I couldn't do anything but lay back and experience the ride. It took a couple of hours until I was able to get up and start moving around. There really wasn't any peak. It came on very gently and then just stayed at the level it eventually reached for a few hours before slowly tapering off. It lasted for around five hours. I had a few balloons of N2O during the peak, but nothing particularly exciting or mind-blowing ever occurred. That has never happened before; the combination of nitrous oxide and a psychedelic has always resulted in me being instantly catapulted to another dimension.
I experienced little in the way of visuals, other than some extremely vivid blue trails left by my red laser pointer left on the white tiled ceiling. These trails lasted for a good second or two, and they actually looked as if they were drawn with a magic marker! I also saw some colors and objects on the ceiling, and they were reminiscent of the color effects produced by psilocybin. Some of the objects in the room would waver and breathe slightly if I concentrated on them, but there was never anything that particularly grabbed my attention.
Perhaps the most fascinating effect I experienced were audio distortions reminiscent of what DiPT is said to produce. I first noticed these distortions around the third hour, when I listened to the Grateful Dead's "Anthem of the Sun", an album I am quite familiar with. The music would change its pitch, both up and down, without actually slowing down or speeding up. It generally sounded "wrong" and "off". I found this effect both interesting and disturbing at the same time.
5-MeO-DiPT definitely did live up to its famous reputation as an enhancer of the erotic. My partner was also absolutely blown away by this quality, however I think it probably would have been just as enjoyable if we had each taken a few baby woodrose seeds instead. Those little things are a wonderful psychedelic for enhancing lovemaking. For me, this was really the only thing that made me forget about how lousy I felt. In addition to being physically pleasurable, there was an intense emotional connection between us as well.
Other than the audio distortions and erotic aspect, I really was not pleased with 5-MeO-DiPT. The body load was rather significant, and I experienced slight nausea, restlessness, a sensation of extreme heaviness, and just a general overall discomfort. Marijuana helped, but only so much. The comedown was also extremely rough and I went from feeling bad to feeling worse. I really had no useful, rewarding, interesting, or even fun mental effects other than the audio changes. No insights or anything I would call mind expanding. I couldn't personally see this material inducing a classic, mystical, psychedelic trip, though I know I have read one or two reports of it doing so in others.
Experience # 2 3/18/01
On a spur of the moment I asked my best friend if he wanted to conduct some research, so we each ingested 3 ml (6 mg) of my previously mixed 5-MeO-DiPT solution. This was his first time with the material. I took it on an empty stomach, while my friend had eaten some three hours earlier. Both of us noticed the effects within thirty minutes.
I quickly sensed that this ride was going to be easier than my first experience, and I began to feel very pleased with the changes than were occurring inside of me. I was also quite happy that the nausea was limited to a minor tummy rumble, which was easily quieted with a few toaks of some very potent cannabis.
All in all, the transition of this trip was free of misery for both of us. My friend and I were both very surprised at how much change in consciousness a mere 6 mg produced. Neither of us reached ever reached a full +3, but the effects were definitely more than just mild. I would say that at the peak I had reached a strong +2.
At about the one-hour point, we were both at a near +2 and took off for a walk to our old elementary school to rekindle some sentimental memories. We spent a good hour camped out on a stairwell that led to my old fourth grade classroom smoking cannabis and philosophizing with our open and stimulated minds. Conversation flowed rather nicely, and our discussion was deep and constructive. 6 mg produced moderate visual effects for both of us, which consisted of mellow trails and color enhancement. My friend commented that it reminded him of a low dose of mushrooms.
Eventually, we left the school and relocated to my friend's residence. Upon arriving, we turned off the lights and put on some classical music, I forget the composer. I was not familiar with the piece, so I can not say if I experienced any audio distortion. My friend did not notice any distortion and felt it actually enhanced the music in an LSD or mushroom-like manner. I experienced moderate color effects in the darkness.
Unfortunately by the third hour of the experiment, the nasty side of 5-MeO-DiPT started to make itself known. A strong body load crept up on me and I became very uncomfortable. It was not as severe as when I took 11mg, but I was squirming in my seat with nervous energy. It reminded me of what I read alpha-methyltryptamine (AMT), a substance I have not personally conducted research with, often produces. We smoked some more cannabis, but it really did not help much. I eventually went home and ended up taking 5 mg of Valium in an effort to relax.
All in all, this experiment was a good one other than the comedown. In retrospect, this 5-MeO-DiPT experience was definitely psychedelic, and the conversations it stimulated were very insightful. This experiment is a good example to show that taking less material can end up producing more of an experience.
Experience # 3 4/24/01
I've always enjoyed a nice concert by a 60's icon with a bit of a psychedelic substance flowing through my neurons, so when Bob Dylan came to play for me I ingested 4 ml (8 mg) of my bitter solution. I chose that substance because I had to be at my place of employment early the next morning, and I didn't want to be up all night on a long-acting material such as LSD or 2C-T-7. I would have liked psilocybin but none has come to visit me for a while.
Because there was the threat of a security search, and the water containing the 5-MeO-DiPT was contained in an impossible-to-conceal-in-your-shoe glass vile, I wisely choose to take the material before entering the auditorium. I had been thoroughly frisked and forced to empty my pockets at too many concerts before to take any chances of having to explain what was in the vile. Not to mention I had a small amount of pot in the sole of my shoe.
I really wished I hadn't taken it so early because there was no security check and I was already beginning to feel the effects of the material by the time my friend/designated driver and I found our seats. Unfortunately, we still had over an hour until show time and I was very uncomfortable in that room. The bright lights of the auditorium were beaming down, the chairs were very small and cramped together, and people were filling up everywhere. The gentleman sitting next to my left insisted on talking to me, and I was finding it very difficult to act normal and carry on a conversation.
The physical effects of the drug were felt strongly within a half-hour of taking it, and my body was filled with a nervous, uncomfortable energy. I was also slightly nauseous, but with ushers close by and the fact that I was in a non-smoking indoor auditorium, I could tell there was no way I would be able to smoke any cannabis. I tried my hardest not to, but I found myself squirming in my seat in an agitated and slightly paranoid state. I tried to sit still, but when I did my friend would inform me that I was staring off into a noticeable daze, and looked very odd. A lot of people seemed to be staring at me, and I actually felt "crazy." This furthered my feelings of paranoia and general discomfort. Basically, I was wigging out.
I think the cause of this negative state of mind was due to the fact that 8 mg had taken me by surprise. I knew that a milligram or two could make a big difference with any material that works in small amounts, but this trip seemed almost as intense as my experience with 11 mg and I was very uncomfortable. The strange thing was I couldn't quite figure out why I was so far gone. I was strongly reminded of how Alexander Shulgin described 20 mg of the related compound 4-HO-DiPT, "I struggle to put a name to it…just smashed…no visual, no sensory." Of course he enjoyed his experience and was in comfortable surroundings. I wasn't. I did my best to remain as calm as possible and practiced some deep breathing techniques, which helped a bit. I was at a +3, and my perception of time was severely dilated.
Finally one and one-half hours into the trip, the lights finally dimmed and the show began. From this point on, my experience significantly improved. I was very surprised to find that the music sounded fantastic and intense, instead of distorted as I had previously experienced with 5-MeO-DiPT. There were also some pleasant visual changes occurring at this point. Objects shimmered and many looked as though they were geometrically shaped.
About two hours into the experience the effects began to decline, so I excused myself to the restroom to break the law. I managed to take two good hits before someone came in, though I still managed to get high. I returned to my seat with a big smile on my face and really began to get into the music. The cannabis brought the experience back up a notch, though I never returned to a +3. Dylan put on an impressive show and I soon forgot about the very difficult transition I experienced earlier. By the time the show was over, five and one-half hours after I took the substance, I was largely down.
After the concert, my friend and I returned to my house. We smoked some cannabis, which helped me to relax and I became rather tranquil. Strangely enough, there was little of the unpleasant post-peak stimulation I had experienced on my previous exposures to 5-MeO-DiPT. All in all the experience was positive, but I consider 8 mg to be too much for me.
If I try this material again, I'll see if 7 mg will give me a trip where I can achieve a certain level of intensity without running into troublesome physical side effects. I am also curious about the combining 5-MeO-DiPT with DPT, as I hear this is particularly powerful trip and it's reputed to offer a lot for the serious psychonaut. Either way, I really don't see this as material I would ever reach for first. If anything, it's nice to keep around for her. The more fun she has, the more fun you have. No?

well i was gonna start my own foxy thread, but then i saw yours! tonight was my 1st time experimenting with foxy. i took 20mg orally (in a capsule). i was in for quite an unexpected ride! i know i should have researched it better, but i read a few of the erowid trip reports and was expecting a mostly 'physical' trip....i was completely blown away by the AMAZING visuals....i remember thinking to myself, 'damn, this must be what it is like to eat a sheet of acid...' i was tripping so intensely i could not even stand up for at least two hours, and after that i found my motor skills had dramatically decreased. just walking around, hell just seeing what was in front of me was difficult

it was ultimately an intensely beautiful experience...every facet of my life seemed to present itself in a piercing, strange new glow....i found foxy to be very exploratory in terms of your inner emotions and thoughts..it was also quite scary at times..i would become very restless and unable to sit still, then at times it seemed like everything related to the reality i knew had blown to bits...i know now that i did not give foxy nearly enough credit it deserves as a powerful psychedelic, and though i did have a wonderful experience with it tonight, i doubt it will be something that i continue to pursue. perhaps once or twice a year at the very most. it was a very emotionally overpowering experience - and that is something great, but it is not something that i could put myself through every month or so. i hope you all get the chance to use foxy responibly before it becomes scheduled

good luck!
