Ive done a lot of research into different psychedelics, mainly entheogens as they seem to have more varying effects, looking for something different from the standard LSD/Shroom style trip. And it looks like i might have found it. I want to be able to physically react to what is happening when i trip,which is just a personnel preference. Anyway from what I have read datura sounds like insanity at its finest. Quoted from Errowid:
"unlike the visual effects frequently reported with psychedelics such as LSD and psilocybin-containing mushrooms, datura causes frank hallucinations, meaning that the person cannot distinguish between the hallucinations and real objects. Elaborate visions and fantasies are common, sometimes including long conversations with imaginary persons. Smoking phantom cigarettes is often reported, even by non-smokers."
For some reason this really sounds to me like a fantastic experience. Trippers also frequently mentioned many abstract scenarios, where half way through a trip, they will completely forget they have taken anything, and believe they have something/many important things to do (like getting to work, being at an event, doing something in the house etc...) and spend anywhere between minutes to hours vaguely attempting these activities, usually performing actions that in the real world have no actual correlation to the actions they think they are performing. After this they snap out of it for a short amount of time before getting plunged back into a near schizophrenic psychotic world, where they will continue to attempt basic tasks.
Having long and generally normal conversations with imaginary/"real" people, objects and animals, some of which sound insightful, but not really very enlightening. And smoking phantom cigarettes/ performing other tasks they routinely do prior to taking datura are also mentioned a lot. Have anyone of you ever enjoyed a datura trip enough to attempt it again? Every single report i can find say it is a never-to-be-repeated-nightmare.
Personally I do intend to attempt this, as there is nothing like it and for some reason trips that turn me into a insane cackling fiend are the most enjoyable. BUT not until I am at least 21 so my brain has finished growing. This is the only entheogen i have encountered with real physical and mental dangers while on the substance. I want to do it in a baby proofed area, as most people who do it manage to shake their trip watcher and end up trashing their house or doing dangerous stuff outside. I am also aware the potency varies from leaf to leaf, and that its almost impossible to accurately dose, and considering this plant is generally toxic that doesn't sound fun.
