Yup, this is a very strange little chemical. Just got some for the first time today. So far I don't know what to make of it. Started off this morning with 20mg orally, barely felt anything, just felt a tiny bit of a mood lift. An hour later decided to go for broke and took another 80mg orally. Still barely felt anything, just a tiny bit stimulated, nothing more.
I let another hour pass and insufflated 100mg. A bit of a burn but a fairly sweet taste to it, very similar to ethcathinone (which I have only had in the form of a legal high called 'white columbia' but was told it was of above 98% purity) and also similar in taste and texture to the legal high 'Gogaine' currently on sale in British head shops (Was on hols there recently and it was all I could get my hands on, no idea what's in it, which goes against my ethos, possibly dmc? Just pure stimulation, a bit cokey, not very nice). Anyway began to feel much more stimulated but unfortunately began to feel fairly anxious. I then read that orally, this chem is much smoother so after another hour and a half, I took another 100mg, in a gelcap this time rather than in water. Am currently waiting to feel the full effects of that one but can report that I am starting to feel slightly more motivated to do things. I need to cut the lawn, something I hate doing due to the monotony of it (it's a big lawn), I now feel no sense of dread about it which I was feeling earlier, I actually kind of want to do it! We shall see how I feel when I am actually doing it. Anxiety has died down a good bit strangely enough, mood has improved nicely although I don't feel the need to talk and communicate more like i do with m1 or any entactogen/stim. Then again this should not be compared to an entactogen because it lacks them qualities - not completely though, I do now feel a lot more relaxed, and motivated as I mentioned earlier. Come to think of it I would also really like to just chill and watch some entourage or 30 rock, something light, definitely not six feet under!
As I write I am starting to feel better. 300mg thus far today and am not feeling overly stimulated or overly anxious at all. Orally is without a doubt the way to go if you want to feel in any way good on this chem, I did not like the way I felt after insufflating. As far as the doses go, I always tend to need higher doses of almost everything I take than everyone else but from what I can gather, higher doses are definitely required for this chem in order to feel any of the positive effects. When I say positive effects, I don't mean that it's very euphoric, nor do I mean that it provides coke or d-amp stimulation. It is very subtle. A 'background high' as somebody previously stated would best describe it. As rc's go, definitely not one of the more interesting ones out there, but seeing as it has lifted my mood, which has been very low as of late, I am somewhat happy with it. Also it's all I have. I am also admittedly at the same time somewhat disappointed as I would have much preferred more euphoria. Heart rate hasn't increased either, it does rise a bit with exertion though.
I am not recommending this to anybody looking for something to equal the likes of meph, m1, mdpv, (even) 4-fmc, or any euphoric stimulant. Realistically all this has going for it is the price of it and the bit of a mood lift it gives. Also the very manageable and smooth/subtle stimulation, if one finds that desirable. Honestly the only reason I bought this is because it was ridiculously cheap (can I say how much it cost?, it was sooo cheap!) and my vendor was out of m1. Probably a good thing, gives my serotonin levels a chance to level out, went on a bit of a methylone binge about a month and a half back, went through 10 g's of it on my own over the space of a couple weeks. Christ I really over-did that, in the end my tolerance had risen so much that I was needing doses in excess of 750mg to get any effects. In the beginning all I needed was a maximum of 150 - 200mg for some beautiful euphoria. God I love methylone! Has one of the best come-up feelings ever and when you reach the peak it is just plain gorgeous. I'm sure any of you will tell me how ridiculously high a dosage that is and I am fully aware of it. I do have a rather addictive personality and seeing how addicting that m1 can be, perhaps I should avoid it for a while longer and in the future, if ordering, only order small amounts.
As far as the addictive qualities of buphedrone go, I would say it is not very addicting. With insufflation however I could see it becoming increasingly more-ish with each dose, especially for the people who are used to the constant impulse to re-dose on meph or people who just enjoy that very stimulated feeling as they will keep chasing a high that isn't really there. People may also try to chase euphoria that just isn't there. No matter how much you re-dose, it's just not going to happen from what I can gather. Compulsive re-dosing intranasally will only lead to what I would imagine to be very uncomfortable stimulation that only a xanax or a valium will counteract. Buph has actually proven to be the most clear-headed high I have ever experienced and nobody will know you are on it, unless you are sniffling from snorting, which is inevitable with this, I almost gave myself away after the line I took.
I have a good bit of this in my possession and I have a feeling that it will be in my possession for quite a long time as I do not have much interest in doing this very often. Will definitely be combining this with other chems as I feel doing this will give the most rewarding results. I have some 4-FMC and 4-MEC on the way so I will begin experimentation then. Haven't tried 4-MEC yet, but from what I have heard I think I am going to like it. Heard it gives a great chill out buzz and is fairly euphoric, although nowhere near as euphoric as meph. That doesn't bother me as all I want is to be good and chilled out yet motivated at the same time, sociable, nothing getting me down, forget my problems, having a good time, you know, the usual expectations that come along with a euphoric stim. I just hope it isn't as hard on serotonin as m1 or 6-apb, I highly doubt it. Will write reports after the combo's if they are in any way interesting. Here's hoping!
I stated earlier that buph hasn't made me more chatty or sociable, which it hasn't done, but I have been typing and thinking about what to type for well over an hour now which is something I can usually never do recently due to inability to concentrate for any prolonged period of time which is due to my high anxiety levels as of late. So I would guess from this that buph at higher doses could very well be used as a study aid. Honestly, recently, I can't even concentrate on writing a text message, or read an article in a newspaper without completely zoning out! Or maybe this is just the closest I can get to human interaction today, being out of work and home alone during the day. Who knows!
Quick question, has anybody taken buph on top of alcohol? Wondering if it would increase sociability. I remember naphyrone on its own just gave me stimulation and jaw clenching but on top of a few pints it proved to be quite the social lubricant. Thinking buph at a high dose after a few drinks might do the same. Then again it could very well just negate the effects of the alcohol. We shall see this weekend.
Apologies if I have been rambling and getting off-point at times but hope you enjoy the read, I have actually enjoyed typing this. Now I am off to cut the lawn! Peace.
