Anybody else NOT like nitrous?

I've messed around with nitrous quite a bit (just like every other drug, lol). I gotta say though for me personally, I NEVER liked doing it balloons or whippets. I only like it at all when using a medical breathing mask, on a low release, with oxygen. It sort of requires 2 people, but if you can find someone to help you, it works great. The times I've done it, I've just done as described above, until I literally "black out" or "womped" as you call it, and simply have the other person cut the nitrous down significantly after. Have some good music on, maybe watch TV or listen to it at least, and after about 30 minutes of being pleasantly high, it'll peak and you'll black out. Breathe just the oxygen and you'll end up back to normal.

If anyone was wondering, I started using it this way after having nitrous a couple times at the dentist. I won't do it any other way now, really.
 
I've never tried it on its own..

The last time i had it, i was in the peak of a high dose of LSD.. it blew me away, i was not expecting what followed.. time and sound slowed down, everything looked like it was underwater.. i couldn't stop laughing.

I remember saying "Holy Shit" in an extremely slow deep voice.. while everyone around me laughed in the same manner, the slow motion aspect of it made it feel unbelievably 'epic'.
 
By itself it's nice but does get boring after a while. On MDMA it can be great, on ketamine even better, on ketamine and MDMA better still. On shrooms or acid it truly shines however.
 
not worth it... it's more damaging than a good tab or three and for what? 2 minutes of Wossh, woosh, wosh, wosh, wah, wa. if you were to look at drugs in the damage to duration times intensity of high. you would see that there are many otoher ways to do equivelent dammage with a much longer duration of action.

Pure science, folks.
 
I saw the title of the thread, blindly scrolled to quick reply and am going to say - WTF ITS SO HARD NOT TO LOVE NITROUS! If I could wed a chemical I'd marry Nitrous and have LSD as my best man.

That is all. Thank you.
 
I found that it didn't do much for me on shrooms, it just made things confusing.

I wasn't tripping on a high dose and I'd smoked some which also made things weird as I prefer mushrooms without any other drugs. I've never tried n2o on acid.

When I've tried it on its own and after smoking it's fun!

Pure bullshit!

Nitrous is NOT like inhaling glue or freon or gasoline fumes or something.

Nitrous Oxide is one of the absolute safest and NON-TOXIC substances that there is. 99.9% of it is exhaled unchanged. And again, it is extremely non-toxic.

Why do you think it is used in dentistry when you would be laying there inhaling it for like an hour straight?

See here: http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/nitrous/nitrous_health.shtml
and here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide

The thing about B-12 depletion has only been observed a couple times when people did truly immense amounts (like an entire tank over 8 hours), and is entirely prevented by typical doses of B-12 in multivitamins.

Only ignorant jackasses tell people it is toxic without knowing what the hell they are talking about.

One the other hand if you are stupid enough to use Industrial or Automotive Nitrous Oxide, that has sulfur deliberately added to it to discourage abuse, then YES, THAT shit can be damaging.

Moral: use only medical-grade nitrous from tanks, or food-grade nitrous from whippets and you have absolutely nothing to worry about.
 
I LOVE nitrous-- itsmazuhin. My fiance doesn't like it though-- says it feels "dangerous", even though she know's it is not.

I LOVE NITROUS, personally. My question is: if you dislike it so much, why did you feel you had to finish the tank?! seems like a waste of perfectly good nitrous.

It's not my tank, therefore I continued to fill up my balloon. I wasn't just gonna sit there and watch everyone get spun. They had their fun, I kinda had fun, but afterwards I was super drained and just wanted to go home and sleep.

I need to try it with LSD and probably will get to in the near future. Hopefully. If not, well, I think I'm missing out on an interesting experience, but I can tell you my days of sober/stoned/drunk nitrous sessions are over.

I thought I loved it after the first few balloons, then I realized each experience was the damn same. Had I been tripping it would be different. I feel like that's the consensus: tripping or bust.

Oh and it's pretty cheap if you have a tank and a license, so I can see the appeal. Fuck spending money on balloons at festivals that's straight retarded. I will never waste my money like that.
 
A few when tripping are AMAAAAZING! But more than a few and it seems to affect the balance of neurotransmitters or whatever, and it has for me at times seemed to REDUCE the level at which I am tripping after the Nitrous wears off, so while you GOTTA try it tripping, do take it easy and don't overdo it.

Yea I can guess balloons at festivals are absurdly expensive. For home use, search for a brand called "Purewhip". There's basically one vendor in the US (and a few in EU) and it is noticeably cleaner that ALL other brands (including the way overpriced ISI)... the "residue" is thought to be just vegetable oil used to prevent rust on the inside of the cartridges, and can be mostly eliminated by inhaling from cracker through a cotton shirt or other filter.... ANYWAY Purewhip while still having a little of that, has WAY less that ALL other brands... and from the vendor, who has a shipping location in FLA and one in CALI you can get cases 25 boxes of 24 cartridges for about $170, shipping included, as well as all sorts of supplies like whipped cream canisters for administration... though I always waste some with those screwing the thing on... a cracker and punching-bag balloon seems to let me get 100% of it. Oh and that vendor after you buy from him or register will around holidays send you a link to a special page for an extra discount, putting a case at more like 160. Shipping is fast too... 2 calendar business days from Florida to me in N KY. Pretty amazing, if you ask me... not spamming... just a fan.
 
You're not the only one McTwist. I don't like the chasing after some sort of bizarre mental construct, doing hit after hit only to watch nonsensical thought-forms laugh me in the face. I have never been able to smuggle anything worthwhile back from that state, besides very general ideas about duality other psychedelics express much more eloquently.

On top of that the afterglow feels pretty toxic to me; I feel weak and depressed

Also I must be a wuss but N2O + psychedelics is way too intense for me. 150 mics LSD + one balloon + some intense music => lots of worried friends as i sat up, completely dissociated, screaming my lungs out. Not a pleasant sight.

(Edit: That said, hold a balloon in my face and there's a 9 out of 10 chance I'll gulp it down, because for me there is still a definite appeal in doing nitrous)
 
I've never been impressed with nitrous. I don't dislike it, and I'll do it when it's around, but not something I ever seek out or even think about unless it's in front of me.
