AngelTrumpets(datura)-1st use- Very pleasant experience

Some basic info about myself. I'm a fairly healthy 20y old female, and a pretty experienced drug user.
I decided to post this report since Angel Trumpet's are not very well documented. Formerly of the datura family, now of the brugmansia, Angel Trumpets are considered Very dangerous. They are said to cause extreme sleepiness and delirium, with severe hallucinations when strong doses are taken. The chemicals, scopolamine being the primary,in Angel Trumpets are similar in psychadelic effects of diphenhydramine, contained in OTC things like Benadryl or Dramamine, from what I know.
Dosage- Unfortunately I can not be precise, as each flower contains different amounts of scopolamine. For now let it be said that we made a pot of tea with approx 30 flowers. I will attempt to calculate the dosage better later and edit the report.
So there were about 7 of us in a friends apartment, when the flowers were brought back for consumption. Between 11 and 1230 at night we smoked some good regs while the tea maker made the tea.
1:30am- everyone drank 1 - 1 1/2 glasses of tea. Tasted like flower petals and tea, not wholly unbearable.
2am- I was feeling very warm, more social, and had lost some of my cooridination. An over all very pleasant feeling. Smoked a few more bowls to attempt to bring out the effects. Weed didn't seem to effect it really, just made thinking hazier.
2:30-3:30- Everyone complained of not tripping, about half of the party went to bed, due to the tiring effect of the tea. At 3:30 me and a friend decide to drink the rest of the tea, about another 1 and a half glasses each.
4:30- At this point everyone had fallen asleep but me. I was just laying there in kind of a delirium. Content. For the rest of the duration I just lay there. I started having auditory hallucinations. My eyes would be closed, and I would be having a conversation with someone, then I would say something out loud and realize there was no one there. This happened many times. At one point I just up and said "What the fuck?" out loud after no one had said anything for a while.
Unfortunately there were not many visuals that I can recall. Once I looked at the stereo, and it was all lit up like christmas, then I turned my head and looked back again, and it was completely turned off. There were texture visions, like staring at the ceiling,the shadows would turn into creatures and chase each other around.
Finally I got up at about 8 am since I had to make it home for work. Trying to recall it all now is very hazy, which is not surprising since many people don't recall anything afterwards.
Overall effects- warmth, tiredness, auditory hallucinations with mild visuals. Increased socialness.
After effects- Dialated pupils for two days following. Some strange visuals, saw kind of a thin aura of color around everything, not like normal dialated eyes. Some texture like visuals like during the trip, not very noticeable.
Conclusion- I would try this again after very carefully determining the proper dosage for a strong trip, and I would have a trip sitter, due to the powerful hallucinations said to come with a strong amount. I would definetly drink mild cups of this for a pleasant feeling. This was a good experience overall, if I hadn't been worried about working the next day it would have been better.

Hellfiregurl----That sounds liek sumthing i would like to try cause i am into that semi trippy well-being shit. If that had been me i would have gotten some more since you were obviously sharing it with other people. I would have drunk the said amount that you did. Waited.....see how the effects were adn then if they were not strong enough for me i wuld have taken a shit load of it. (not trying to condone any ways of over use of drugs if anyone thinks that) see i am the kinda person who takes strong dosages of anything because i love intense stuff. You will never see me taking light dosages unless its like PCP or Heroin because those to me are life threatening.(but all drugs are.) glad you had a great time.!
 
The reason for caution is that there is a fine line between amounts for fun and death when it comes to datura or angel trumpets. Its not like most drugs, it is really dangerous. Please do be careful. Do your researh before even Touching this.
 
Wow a datura report. Having heard bad stuff about it on the net and from a friend that got chased by non-existant dogs, and his friends having to get their stomach pumped, I don;t think I'd ever touch datrua.
But interesting report anway :)
 
I am also into HEAVY- trippin i luv to see fucked up shit. but you don't have to worry about me trying it soon because its not very common in GA. Atleast i don't think so and no i am not asking for a hook up!
 
Please, please do your research on this plant!!!
Shaman of 30 years expereince will still only use it in very small amounts. This plant can be deadly! Beware.

I like my Angels Trumpet too!
Sounds like you just borderlined the required dose. On higher doses you'll get insane visuals like your carper will grow right up to your ceiling and patterns on walls will come triwling right out of the walls. You'll see spiders and bugs everywhere, then... for 2 days you'll more or less be dreaming, your lounge room may become a night club, your bedroom may a bathroom... haha, Daturas cool ! But make sure you have a reliable *sitter* cause believe me, killing yourself on datura would be a damn easy thing to do with no-one looking after you !

Datura grows in every state in the lower 48. That of course includes Georgia. It isn't a hard-to-find plant. But I think it's best admired for its beautiful flowers, not its psychoactive effects.

If you are going to use datura, the safest way (if such a thing exists) is to smoke the leaves. This way you can titrate yout dosage and take just the right amount. Smoke a few hits, wait 20 minutes or so and repeat until you reach your desired level of intoxication. Of course with severe datura intoxiation, you won't actually know you are high. Ahh the irony.
 
MGS SAID:

Of course with severe datura intoxiation, you won't actually know you are high.

which is ofcourse why it`s so damn dangerous to redose, you might be in the nightclub and order some daturatea from the barlady that looks like a 12foot high backpack, and get f`d up even worse, all the while still being at your own house trying to clip off that thing growing between your legs(happens all the time...). But hey, if you enjoy delirium without having any idea of taking anything, or even noticing anything out of the ordinary, datura might be your thing. I might try daturadreamtea one day though, I believe it is an extremely small dose of datura mixed with things like Calea Z. and other oneiric herbs which is supposed to give you lifelike, controllable dreams. Only problem here is that you won`t know if it`s reality or not, maybe you woke up and are tripping balls and don`t realize it.

Gotta love deliriants right???
