Butane - New Experience - Inhalants are dangerous. Do not use this chemical.

This actually sounds very similar to some of my more intense nitrous oxide experiences. It truly is one of the most bizarre feelings I have ever experienced. It doesn't happen every time I do nitrous, but when it does, it's indescribable.
I agree. It actually usually happens to me. With higher doses, it's inevitable.

When I enter the déjà vu, it's like being hit with this sudden realization (epiphany like even) that I have been in this very moment before, and in fact, this eternal moment is my true reality. It seems as if my whole life leading up to this moment is just an illusion that I've tricked myself into believing, and I can see that I am in an endless cycle of living this illusory life all the way up to inhaling the nitrous and finally coming to the great realization while knowing I will soon forget this truth, and I will soon start the cycle all over again by returning to that false life (sobriety).
I experience something very similar to what you described. It goes something like this:
I never notice the transition from this world to nitrous land. However when I get there, the revelations hit me. There exists a single entity, that is God. God is trying to escape his status or presence. He has created a world of individual entities, who're all connected to this unified being, but separate from themselves. God hopes to create a self sustaining entity apart from himself. That responsibility lies within myself, and I approach the state of God when I do nitrous. If I fail, everything that's ever happened in the universe will be in vain, and God will have to start anew.

This model of thought continues until I reintegrate with reality. This always happens in an extreme deja vu like manner. As in, as far as my memory is concerned, every single comedown from nitrous land I've ever had has been the same. I can see the same frames slamming into each other, until the world is whole again. It's not just visual, either, but concerns all my senses.

When I come down, I realize this is an insane thought pattern, and can only grasp the feelings I just had in the most fleeting manner. I find this experience more intense than even my 5-MeO-DMT or Salvia trips. The realism of these non nonsensical thoughts is astounding.
It's my most favorite experience to be had. Of course I don't really believe anything I come back with. But god damn is it fun.
 
very similair to diethyl ether. sounds less intense but it seems you didnt do much of it so i cant say. ive huffed gasoline, air duster, diethyl ether, nitrous, and freeon. diethyl ether seeming to be the greater of evils. tho freeon was pretty crazy but that was the same night i first tried snorting crystal so i cannot say for sure.

stirfry it comforts me to see that post.

ledionz i agree, the damage can be felt for quite some time. i dont think it goes away either, i think you just get used to it or forget about it.
 
LOL ya as everyone else has stated DO NOT USE INHALANTS, please, for the love of humanity do not huff butane, I remember back in high school, there was this stuff called 'rush' sold in porn shops that we used to inhale and it was fun for 30 seconds to a minute, but depriving the brain of oxygen and inhaling toxins is just not a good way to get high. if you are just dying for a buzz and cant find anything but inhalants, just try hyperventilating instead, its much safer. or order some kava, kratom, or even make an herbal tea of catnip, skullcap, valerian, hops, etc, anything but inhalants!!!!
 
Don't try this at home

Okay, first i'd like to point out that i'm not glorifying butane in any way, i'll tell you the after effects at the end. When i was younger (and more reckless) i went through a seven month binge on solvents. I don't have a clue how i'm still alive. I was getting through 5 cans of butane a day and various brands of glue and fuel in between. Every day blurred into the next and i wasn't sure who i was anymore, nothing appealed, not even food, it didn't even make sense to breathe, which confused me no end. A lot of people on here have compared butane to nitrous, but thats like comparing crack to cocaine, very similar, but not in the same division.

When i inhaled i would empty my lungs completely and inhale direct from the can. Once my lungs were full i'd exhale through my nose whilst continuing to inhale through my mouth, ensuring there was a constant flow of fresh gas in my lungs. I'd maintain this until i thought i was dissociating (if you don't catch yourself before this 'blank' point you'll inhale the whole canister without realising, puke and black out). After a few days I became convinced that there were other creatures living amongst us that no-one else could see, and that i could only see them because the butane heightened my perception. But thats only the tip of the iceberg. I could honestly write a trilogy based on what i saw and experienced, there's more than i can even begin to explain.

I only stopped because i began throwing up constantly, passing out in the middle of the street, my skin turned green, and even the thought of solvents made me sick. I think my body was telling me it was about to give up. Its my only regret in life and im so glad i stopped else im certain i wouldn't be telling you this. I still get blackouts, twitches and heart tremors to this day. Im not a religious person but i pray every single day that it won't be the recklessness of my youth that'll prove my undoing. Id rather drown than know id dug my own grave. Please, please, please don't try butane.

i must admit that i did try butane a bit when i was younger we used to get a teatowl fold it up a few times get dry deorident put the can on 1 side and my mouth on the other side and spray and breath deep i would get a ringing really warm ears and got déjà vu i stoped when i did it on my own and went a little overboard n started crying forno reason (i wasent sad tears were just pouring out my eyes)and blacked out that scared the shit out me and i never did it again seince that day...recentley i have been getting into N20 and it feels very simmilar same ringing sound same visuls same warm ears feeling lol.im and not telling anyone to try butane go out and buy some whipits much much safe and pritty easy to get a hold of..
p.s i still get the same blackouts i got from the butane and havent done it n about 4 years pease anyone thinking of doing butane DONT if u wanna get high go buy some weed or whipits
 
Do not try it!

I was hooked on butane since i was 13, but when i was 11 i tried to make my breath smell better by spraying deodorant through a towel and into my mouth ( yes not very smart). So i started off like at and it was very addictive as i didnt know about the bad effects. When i was 13 i found out you can get pretty much the same high but for the 4th the price by inhaling butane, i did butane for 4 years after that, untill my m8 died from and i stopped. I always used to be an A* student but the last two years of it i felt the effect of butane raping my brain cells i got average of B+ in my GCSE so if you wanna get high do weed or something way better.
 
To be honest, I would never huff butane for those effects. The deja-vu effect is exactly like what DXM and marijuana (alone) used to give me. Glad you're ok and able to spell/type though.
 
uhm... were u paying attention in health class? I mean, if u were, y on "god's green motherfucking earth" would u have even the SLIGHTEST desire to 'huff'. Not mention the horrid smell of butane, not a sweet smell like fluranes or ethers, ethane which are pretty much the only somewhat exceptable ones, maybe cyclopropane but most of em aren't readily available.

I know u already know how stupid that was so i wont go into it by saying that was stupid, cuz it was... lol
 
I'm always interested in reading reports of inhalants and other odd, dangerous substances. No interest in trying them myself, but interesting nonetheless.

Not all inhalants are equal in their risk profiles. Nitrous oxide, nitrite inhalants and ether are some of the less lethal ones, provided they're used responsibly. Stay away from duster, freon, butane, propane, glue, paint and other caustic chemicals if you value your life.

Actually rush increases bloodflow to the brain, has nothing to do with oxygen, or if anything, u may get more o2 but that's just an assumption. Rush is basically smelling salts that they give u when u pass out to wake u up. They r really unpleasant IME and I certainly dunno how people use them during sex.
 
Already on a bit of an MDMA binge, I somehow decided it would be a good idea to huff "ether" extracted from starting fluid with some friends. Of course, this "extraction method" with the water is complete bullshit, and, in addition to the diethyl ether, we were also inhaling the other hydrocarbons in there, like hexane and heptane, the former of which is pretty neurotoxic. It wasn't even worth it, really, and I could have suffered a heart attack or something due to the concomitant MDMA use.

Stupid, stupid, stupid. I was so ashamed the morning after. Never again!
 
Nitrous sounds similar enough to butant to me, without the toxic effects, that i would just stick to nitrous myself.

be safe and have fun.

You described this very well. I experience pretty much the exact same thing. It's actually kind of scary because of how real it seems. Your entire life seems like some kind of strange delusion and this state seems like the only real thing which you are bound to return to over and over again forever.
 
Tried it several times as a young teenager. Had no idea of the risks involved. One of our group died from butane whilst at home buzzing alone. Never did it again. What a way to find out about how damaging this can be :( RIP Vick.
