So, I thought I would share my experience with this wonderful substance. First some background:
Experience: Broad spectrum of classic substances and research chemicals. In terms of psychedelics: 2C-B and -E, 4-HO-MET, DiPT, LSA, LSD, Mushrooms and Salvia divinorum. Most intense experience was probably with 5 g mushrooms (P. cubensis). Unfortunately only one rather mild experience with LSD. Additionally one experience with 2 blotters of would-be-LSD not too long ago which must have been some NBoMe shit due to very uncomfortable trip with severe vasoconstriction and bitter tasting of the blotters.
Set: Generally very good mood, just received my first academic degree and most things in life are working out, still definitely some issues present. One acute problem: Relatively strong tooth pain which was countered with ibuprofen. Due to my very excited mood to try AL-LAD, I decided to give it a try nonetheless.
Setting: Mostly at my flat with my trusted flat mate as trip sitter. Etizolam was present for emergencies.
Now to the good stuff:
T+0:00 h: Applied 2 blotters (= 300 µg) sublingually. I decided to watch the first two episodes of My Little Pony. Now I’m definitely no brony, but I thought it would get me into a positive mindset and so it did.
T+0:20 h: Chewed the blotters a bit (very slight bitter taste) and swallowed everything. First alerts were somewhere around this time, maybe even after 15 minutes.
T+0:40 h: Effects increased in frequency and strength, some sudden changes in gravity perception, giggling and euphoria was slowly building up, colors became more vibrant. I decided to lie down on my bed as some body load began forming. There was some feeling of nausea present which was soon overpowered by the increasing effects. My friend decided to show me some musical scenes from Disney movies (Aladdin: Prince Ali!) which was fun but didn’t feel quite right yet.
T+1:00 h: At this point the OEVs were already very pronounced. The walls were breathing and the ceiling liquefied more and more. I was very euphoric, giggled and laughed and was just in an excellent mood.
T+1:15 h: The trip was fun but something was missing. Consequently we decided to go out into the autumn weather, another friend joined us. As soon as we stepped outside, I realized it was the right decision: I immediately found myself in the classic psychedelic mindset of a little child gazing at the small wonders present in every corner of the world. As we walked through the streets I looked in awe at the world and especially the trees. We went to a nearby park where a sense of adventure took over and I was drawn to the darkest parts of the park. As I stood there, I noticed a little hill ascending to a red sky: We climbed the hill and saw the setting sun creating such an epic and intricate color play, just beautiful.
After sunset we walked around some more but I felt increasingly overheated under my coat and we went back to my flat.
T+1:45 h: Arriving at my flat I felt really, really hot and lay down on my bet while my friends turned on my fan which was really soothing. I was definitely at a +++ at this point and rolled around in my bed, staring mostly at my morphing ceiling, laughing and enjoying myself. Here we run into something a little strange. As I’m writing this report, I’m realizing that I apparently lay on my bed for most of the time between T+1:45 and T+3:30 h, which really felt much, much shorter. During this time I definitely peaked but couldn’t quite “use” the full potential of this. The OEVs were intense but I felt “not quite there yet”. We experimented a bit with different music and turned off the light, but this killed almost all visuals, so light was the way to go. In retrospective I should have done something different during the peak than staring at the ceiling. CEVs were present but nothing which could hold my interest for too long. One really fun thing: Watching myself in the bathroom mirror. I always enjoyed this on mushrooms and this was no exception. Some freaky shit was going on, one major motif was that my face was somehow “segmented” and the different parts moved in different directions. Another recurring feature was a kind of “Terminator look” with metal showing under my skin.
T+3:30 h: Originally we planned that I would trip today with my flat mate sitting and I would sit him the following day. At this point I was definitely beyond my peak so we decided my friend could take his dosage (300 µg). Inspired by the great musical scene I watched during my comeup, we decided to watch Aladdin which was great fun. As my effects were still going strong, I was fascinated by the strong and often quite disturbing visuals (for a children’s cartoon at least).
Around T+5:00 h: My visuals were gone almost completely (which disappointed me a bit). Since my friend was approaching his peak, I thought he should get more out of it, so we went outside again, now into the darkness. My friend was fairly disoriented at this point and going out alone at this level would have been a pretty bad idea. I lead him through the darkness of the park once again up to the hill where we lay down and watched the clear sky. To my pleasure, watching the stars showed me that my visuals we’re not gone completely as the sky lit up with more stars than I’d ever seen on the sky. Multiple times it got really foggy, but every time I got up I realized it was just my perception. Just lying there definitely felt magical and I was reminded that the last time tripping together with a close friend was like 5 years ago, too long. At this point my friend was peaking and experienced really intense OEVs in the sky which I could only dream about. Some examples: Scorpions with multiple tails, snakes, hell hounds and much, much more, most of which were probably inspired by the visuals of Aladdin during his comeup. He managed bravely but also said “If I wouldn’t find these things so funny right now, I would have a really, really bad trip”.
After 30 minutes or so we went back home. The AL-LAD was definitely hitting him stronger and we would go off on though loops, often asking me if he said something just so and the likes of that. I will leave it to him if he reports his experience in more detail here. We went on to watch Hercules, which was fun, but not great.
At about T+8 – 9 we took our prepared etizolam and went to bed, although it really wouldn’t have been necessary to sleep. This also produced the only after-effects the next day: Wonkyness due to the etizolam. One thing about the body load: Throughout the whole experience we had some body load, for me this mainly consisted of two things: A weird feeling in the stomach which I described as “always being aware that there’s this cavity inside you” and I’d seen another describe as a feeling of always being hungry. Secondly some vasoconstriction and some trembling muscles, clutching the fists etc. These were most pronounced on the comedown and were otherwise overshadowed by the positive effects.
Okay, in conclusion: Really wonderful, positive substance. For me 300 µg were not quite enough, but for the first time the right choice. Fortunately the tooth pain was no problem during the whole experience. I really hope I’m fortunate enough to experience this substance some more, next time at 450 µg. Another venture I’m planning is a type of candyflip together with 5-MAPB.
Now, if you’ve come this far: Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed it/found it helpful. Thanks.
