Forewarning:

I've found a lot of my favourite substances via glowing trip reports, and so I can only assume this nice report might pique some peoples' interest in 6-APB. If it does, it's important that you remember 6-APB is an MDA analogue, with very similar effects to MDA and MDMA - this means that it is likely to be neurotoxic, and you should keep your doses low, avoid redosing, and keep it to once a month at most like the MDxx chemicals.

Stay safe <3

Background info:

Tan/light brown 6-APB powder, smelt a little like a mix of cardboard and electronics, if that makes sense.
Empty stomach at time of dosing.
Dose: 150mg oral, dissolved in a glass of water (+ 5-10mg as after measuring my dose there was a little spillage which I ate without measuring)
My weight: 147lbs (67kg)
I have no experience with MDxx drugs so I can't compare it to them. Closest I've tried is Mephedrone which it blew out of the water 1000x over.

Report:

T+0:00: Measured out 150mg, attempted to put the rest into a wrap since some of it was sticking to the edges of the baggy and hard to get out, and I thought a wrap would be better. I spilled a little and didn't notice until I'd put the rest away and eaten the 150mg, out of lazyness I thought it'd be easier to eat it than put it in the wrap. I'd estimate it was around 5-10mg since it was a tiny amount.

T+0:20: First alerts, feel excited, possibly just psychosomatic and not effects of the drug quite yet.

T+0:40: Starting to feel quite pleasant, light euphoria, possibly start to come up now. Currently playing a game (League of Legends), playing is fun and rather easy.

T+1:00: Definitely hitting me now, starting to talk quite a lot and get pleasant rushes covering my body. Feeling some empathy and entactogenic effects, strong euphoria and stimulation, rushes are unbelievable, I kept touching my face and body, it felt real nice. At this point I've stopped caring about my game and start playing carelessly, costing my team the game. For reference, around this point, I posted the following in PD social: "Oh god wow I've never felt this good in my life" - from this point on, music sounded insanely good.

T+1:20: Rushes are getting a lot stronger, it's starting to get a little trippy, vision slightly blurry. My voice has started to sound like a foreign alien echo to me, which made me a little anxious and paranoid about speaking, but as I started to talk more I got used to it and talking became extremely pleasant. Very euphoric, and enjoying the company of people over voice chat.

T+1:30: OH GOD! At this point everything feels absolutely amazing. I was rubbing my hands all over my body and face constantly, gurning (jaw grinding/moving/chewing) like absolute crazy, and my eyes kept rolling around in their sockets. It was still getting more and more intense.

T+2:00: This is absolutely unbelievable. I was so ready to be disappointed by this, with some of the unpleasant reports, and some people even saying it wasn't very euphoric. I was very wrong though, even at T+1:00 this had easily been the most intense euphoria I'd ever experienced, and now it was 2-3x stronger, it was like a full body orgasm of electrical love waves.

T+2:30: Effects have increased even further since the 2 hour mark. Rushes have taken over my whole body to the point of me shaking with pleasure. I couldn't bear silence, loud trance, dnb, dubstep and other electronic music was playing all the time, and the moment I stopped speaking I blurted out something about a random subject just to get a conversation going - talking so much that barely anyone else had a chance.

T+3:00: Still going strong. Feels a little stronger than T+2:30. At some points now I had trouble speaking clearly, and would say weird things, mixing up my words. One example I distinctly remember was talking about the code for a game I'm writing with a friend, and I said "So 0,0 is at the top top?", repeating top because I repeated 0 and the pattern stuck. Talking was still amazing, and I don't -think- anyone noticed my occasional word mix ups etc.

T+3:40: Wow, it's still getting stronger. I feel absolutely incredible, but words cannot do justice to how good I felt at this point. I was rubbing my face repeatedly, and I remember someone in PD social linked me to a video of Christian the lion which made me melt with joy and love when the lion was playing with them at the end. This sent my euphoria, happiness and empathy to an entirely new level and I don't think anything could have upset me at that moment, nothing at all. Gurning got very very intense at this point, to the point that it hurt - but I felt so good I didn't care.

T+5:00: I was still getting intense rushes at this point, but it had smoothed out a little, felt more calm than the "Holy shit I'm about to blast off and fly" of the past ~4 hours. Feeling great, still gurning a lot, eyes still rolling about. Chatting away over voice chat which is great, managed to finally resolve a problem in my game code - though it was a friend who fixed it for me. Evaluation a lot of things on my mind and developing plans to improve myself and deal with those issues, this works really well for that purpose, definitely very therapeutic.

T+5:35: Starting to come down a little, rushes are very rare now, but I still feel that constant euphoria, empathy, enhanced touch, some visuals (including fun cartoon CEVs). Feelsgoodman :D

T+7:10: Quoted from PD social: "Near baseline now. Feel very physically and mentally exhausted, but the euphoria is still there, albeit a lot weaker than the peak. Still gurning, I can only imagine how bad my jaw is going to hurt tomorrow.. Feel a little nauseous, very slight pressure in my head, but nothing bad, just a little off, probably due to not eating for so long. Time to make some food since I haven't eaten in 11-12 hours, smoke a bowl, eat the food, and then probably head to bed... Might have to add some magnesium to that so my jaw can stop its marathon."

T+7:50: Still not completely baseline, still very happy, stimulated, huge pupils, gurning a ton. Heart rate estimated around 120-180bpm even now, so I can only imagine how high it must have been during the peak. Next time I'll measure it, as this is my only significant concern about this drug. Feeling quite relaxed despite the stimulation though, thought this would be a good time to sleep, but...

T+9:20: Still no sleep. Heat rate was normal by now (as of about 15 minutes before). Feeling very happy, not really euphoric any more but like a nice warm afterglow or a weak stimulant buzz. The stimulation was definitely still there and quite strong, pupils still dilated, and.. of course, still gurning. Decided to smoke a bowl as I thought that'd send me to sleep.

T+9:40: Smoked a bowl, weirdly enough this sent my heart rate soaring back up, but then again sativas often do this for me so it wasn't that unusual. I went to the bathroom and checked my pupils, they were still huge, stimulation and usual effects of gurning and eye rolling persisted so I just lay in bed talking to people on MSN/Skype/AIM using my phone.

T+11:00: Still talking on my phone. Writing pretty fast. I noticed I do actually still have some mild visual distortions, letters on my phone look a little wavey.

T+12:00: Watched some porn. Took a long time just to get an erection, but it was worth it :D

T+13:00: Quoted from PD social: "I attempted to post here earlier from my phone but seems like that didn't work. Still a little stimulated and unable to sleep at T+13:00. Pupils still dilated. I'm not sure if this is the fact I took just over 150mg which is considered to be quite a large dose - or if it's just the fact drugs tend to last longer for me in general. E.g. weed lasts 4-7 hours always. Ketamine lasts 1.5 to 3. Ritalin excess stimulation lasted over 10 hours."

Some time shortly after that, probably around T+13:30 or T+14:00 I fell asleep. Woke up at T+20:00 feeling exhausted and worn out, but no depression, no headache, no nausea - just aching arms and legs, an aching (and still gurning slightly!) jaw, a little eye jiggling still. I chalk it down to left over muscle tension, I'm going to pop some magnesium right after I finish writing this and see if it helps.

Overall a great substance. I'd give it a 10/10, joined my list of favourite drugs. However, if tomorrow becomes a day of otherworldly depression or such, I'll change it to a 9/10.

Personally, based on my own experience, I think people not getting good effects from this have either been sold bunk product, or not taken enough. This seems a very valuable chemical, with only two noticeable downsides, the inability to sleep for so long, and how high my heart rate got.

Also, some of my favourite songs during the experience:

Peaking:
The Chemical Brothers - Swoon
Daft Punk - Aerodynamic
Armin van Buuren feat. Fiora - Breathe In Deep (The Blizzard Remix)
ATB ft. Paul Van Dyk - Rave Me (I had a much longer mix of this than the ones on youtube though)
Benga - E Trips
Darude - Rush

Comedown:
Cypress Hill - Insane in the Brain
Kottonmouth Kings - Positive Vibes
Sublime - 40 Oz. To Freedom

nice report jesus! felt like being there next to you mate! thank you for writing it!

heh, i can only imagine what it would have been like if you had gone through with your original plan to do this out clubbing :)

how was your motor control during the peak? do you think you wouldve been able to hold a normal looking appearance? talking socializing or dancing? because it seems to be pretty wild during the peak....
 
In a club where everyone is shouting loudly, rather fast - I'd have definitely been able to get away with socialising/talking. Dancing I'd have probably danced rather crazy but I do anyway so nothing new there :D I probably would appear quite inebriated though, with my huge grin, massive pupils, and my jaws crunching a ton.

Motor control was.. well, it was pretty much the same as normal but my perception of it was very different, I felt quite floaty and light when walking, kind of like some mild spacial distortion.

Other things of note:
- During the peak I experienced intense synaesthesia. The only other drug I've had this with was 2C-E really - where sound and vision linked up and I could see music and occasionally hear things I saw. With 6-APB it was sound and touch, the rushes across my body were completely in sync with my music, I'd get wobbling rough rushes with dubstep, and smooth slow caressing from trance, etc.
- The clothes I slept in seem to have a VERY SLIGHT smell of the 6-APB where my sweat soaked into them, but I'm not sure if I'm just imagining that. Absolutely nothing like Mephedrone in this respect if it is real though, as Mephedrone leaves my whole room smelling quite potently for a few days, and I stink of the stuff even after just a couple of lines.
- Heightened tactile sensation was very intense throughout the experience, but I still have it today. Same goes for all senses. Sounds are much louder, lights are much brighter, the water in the shower seemed much hotter, etc. Possibly due to vasoconstriction as in the shower I noticed my joints were a little discoloured - once again nothing comparing to Mephedrone though.

Good report! I also enjoyed 6-APB quite a lot, possibly a little too much since I'm avoiding it after only using it once, was a litle too enthusiasthic and shameless on it.... I cringe when I remember all the stuff I did while high 8( still the euphoria was amazing though
 
lol what did you do? i used to cringe at the stuff i did on drone or MXE... quite a loss of dignity at some of the messy nights on those haha
 
Spent 85€ for a taxi (gave the wrong address and drove in the wrong direction for like 40km) at 3AM so I could go "meet" (the only thing that was on my mind was bone, lol) a guy who I've been texting with. I was also way underdressed and pretty much resembled a prostitute and it was frickin' cold outside. I could go on, but typing it out would make all the repressed embarrasingly-traumatic memories real, lol.
 
Just an update. After-effects day 2:
- Feeling quite spacey, like my brain needs a little recovery. A little like the fried feeling after a rather intense trip, it feels like it is already wearing off though after a few hours being awake.
- Quite heightened emotions. I assume this is what causes "suicide tuesday" with MDMA and such, as negative things really do upset me - but, for me overall this has been positive, as happy positive things just make me grin like an idiot and I feel really blissful.
- A tiny bit physically tired still, but almost back to baseline.

Overall I'd say this seems quite a smooth "hangover", and I see it as more of an afterglow, but it's definitely clear I'm recovering from something, and so I'd recommend applying the MDMA/MDA unofficial "one month rule" if you want to keep the magic with this one and avoid doing yourself any harm :)

One month from now.. Perfect! That's the 19th of December, so I'll probably enjoy my next experience on Christmas or New Year's Eve, awesome :D
 
man youve got me itchin to give this one a go. should be able to procure a sample within a month or so, once my finances are in order. this and MXE are at the top of my list.

although i do hope that the residual stimulation you experienced was like you said due to the fact that drugs last much longer than normal for you. cuz 13 hours is no bueno.
 
Nice report Jesusgreen. Sounds like you had a great time. I find 6-apb to be a lot of fun and quite introspective as well. The hangover is noticeable but subsides quite quickly for me. Eat, rest and exercise well.
150mg is quite a high starting dose for someone of 67kg. I'm not surprised you had such a strong experience. 8(
 
The residual stimulation was quite pleasant - just not useful given that I wanted to sleep, so maybe this would be the perfect thing to take at a day-time concert or rave - so you can power through the evening afterwards too? :)

150mg did feel like a very high dose, particularly at the peak. I think I could have dosed lower and still had an amazing time, 125mg or so would have been good. Though I'm glad I took 150mg because I tend to prefer more intense experiences, and I intend to take the same amount next time, then a little more the time after that with the last of my bag. (Spaced at least a month apart of course)
 
It's a fantastic substance, isn't it?! - truly magical :D Glad you had fun! 6-APB, along with Mephedrone and AMT, are the best stimulant RCs of modern times in my opinion. I'm glad it's not as popular as it should be, because it's a magical chemical and up there with the likes of Mephedrone, MDMA and AMT in terms of intense euphoria, rushes and empathy :D It'd be a shame to lose it any time soon! I feel bad for America and Australia as it's already illegal there, isn't it?
 
Updated with a little HR at the top of the post, I see a lot of people forgetting how this is likely to be neurotoxic as MDMA and MDA, using it every week etc. Bad idea, and I don't want my trip report to be responsible for more of that if anyone decides to try it because of my experience, so yeah, read the little warning at the top, and keep it responsible! :)

It really is a fantastic substance, but if you want to experience the magic, you have to keep your use safe - otherwise you're just going to ruin it for yourself <3
 
Great report! Really got me interested in the substance as I have a lot of difficulty finding good MDxx around here. I've been wanting my friend to try some of that, so maybe 6-APB will be a good replacement.

Also, Swoon by The Chemical Brothers = <3. I loved listening to it while tripping on DOC. Chemical Brothers in general are just amazing.

Man I know. I saw them live last year on 2C-E, it was mindblowingly awesome. When they played Swoon I had those awesome cold shivers down my spine the whole time.

Visuals were light shifting, there were a lot of tracers, and the edges of everything seemed to be a lot more defined. When I closed my eyes my CEVs were very cartoon like - I didn't close my eyes enough during the experience, but the first time I did, I saw little lego-looking people running around a miniature pixelated city, going into a club, and dancing to the beat of the music I was listening to (even the lights moved to the beat).

I honestly couldn't concentrate much on the visuals though because the body high was so intense that I was too busy being enveloped in pure unadulterated euphoria <3

YMMV
 
This one almost sounds too good to be true. I should really look further into it. MDA/MDMA in a 50/50 mix is still my favorite gold standard for entactogenic experiences. Nice reporting.
