Differences in 2c-x's?

[Tromps]

Hey bluelight. I'm trying to gather peoples opinions on the differences between the 2c's. I could research general effects all day long, but I would rather hear people describe the different effects they've experienced between these chemicals. I am mostly interested in difference of effects between 2c-e, 2c-i, 2c-d, and 2c-c, as these are the only ones I have access to. Please share your personal experiences if you have used any of these to compare and contrast. Much appreciated, thanks

2c-e seems like the king of the 2c-s, 2c-p is it's stronger more long lasting brother however. 2c-e has sort of morphing, waving, pattern like visuals, lights and colours become extremely vibrant and bright. While reading text or a book the words will morph and shift. It's not an entirely lucid trip either, I get paranoid from it quite often and confused but most of the time it's fun if you don't mind that on edge feeling. 2c-e reminds me a lot of mescaline.

2c-i is much lighter in the mind fuck category but the visuals are nice. It lacks the depth of 2c-e but the visuals are different. I'll see spinning patterns which are amazing and never get that from other 2c's. Objects will wave, morph, breathe and colours are vibrant as well. 2c-i is a more lucid, clear headed trip, doesn't last as long as 2c-e either but sleep is difficult after either for me. 2c-i feels like psychedelic fluff, i'm usually disappointed with it as it doesn't blow my mind away like 2c-e. The physical effects from 2c-i are much lighter however, more suited for public tripping and socailizing.

2c-d felt too light for me, i went through about 500mg of it and didn't really enjoy it and the doses are high making it less cost effective and for me it wasn't any better than 2c-i. I've had 2c-c but can't remember much about it, nothing really stood out much like 2c-d but others seem to enjoy them.

If you are looking for intensity then go for 2c-e. If you are looking for a lighter experience then go for 2c-i/2c-d. I'm not sure about 2c-c, I remember it being light but it's been too long for me to really say much about it. All of the 2c's basically bring you to the same place however, just with slight variations. Now mixing 2c-i and 2c-e creates amazing visuals with less body load, which is ideal.

Basically.
Ive never done anything very Psychedelic.

No Lsd. No Shrooms. Nothing.

Ive done : MDMA, Ketamine, DXM, Cannabis, Speed, Cocaine.
I see some cool Closed eye visuals on DXM, but DXM and Ketamine are dissassociatives really arent they..

I want something that is Visualy, trails, colours, patterns, just fun and interesting. But i want a clear mind.
Would 2C-E Peform exactly this?

From reading his post you could of guessed 2c-i would be the better candidate.

Just to clarify this isn't a "what should I take" thread. The only 2c-x I have done is 2c-e and yeah RobotRipping you're right it is very edgy and mentally deep. The reason I'm asking for comparisons and differences is because 2c-e gives me a lot of uncomfortable anxiety and body load. I'm hoping people could share their experiences with the 2c's so I know which one would be less physically and mentally taxing, but still very much recreational.

^ 2c-i will definitely fit your needs, it's so much more comfortable than 2c-e, far less physically and mentally demanding. 2c-d is also a good candidate. They are both quite recreational. If you are looking for a fun trippy time then you can't go wrong there, 2c-e is just a monster of a psych, great for introspection and long periods of deep thought, usually at home near a bathroom with a few friends at most lol. I went to a theme park on 2c-i and had a great time, far less anxiety and much easier to socialize. I've used both 2c-i and 2c-e for years now, if 2c-e is overwhelming then you'll most likely really enjoy 2c-i, it's kind of like MDMA with nice/fun visuals and a light trippy mindset. I can have bad trips on 2c-e from all the paranoia, body load and confusion, never happened to me with 2c-i. High doses of 2c-i can get pretty intense though, but at 15-20mg, I think you'll find what you are looking for.

No, 2C-E does not fit "just fun and interesting". It's quite deep mentally, and imo is a fairly serious business psychedelic. It's got it's merits, but don't take it just "for fun". 2C-E is just about as deep as acid, but a bit rougher in a number of ways - but also not as long.

2C-B and 2C-I are best suited for "fun and interesting" and 2C-I is more visual of the two, but most prefer 2C-B.

2C-C is calm, but not very visual.

2C-D isn't very interesting IME - and was somewhat negative when I took it. 2C-P is like 2C-E, only more confusing, with a lower dose, and more varied reactions between individuals. I would tend to council against anyone except experienced psychedelic users touching 2C-P.
I havn't done enough with the 2C-T's to say much on those. 2C-T-7 wasn't pleasant for me, but i'm not sure if I was already not feeling well or not. Will have to try again, but am in no rush to.

^ Everyone may be affected different, right? 2C-C is very visual for me as well as for several of my friends. Anywhere from 35-50mg of 2C-C is a very enjoyable trip for me. I would recommend it over 2C-I for what Tromps is looking for. 2C-I can often have some residual stimulation, which can for some people be quite unpleasant.

2C-E - Super hallucinogenic, visuals are crazy and mixes well with other psychedelics. Lots of morphing and melting. No real mood boost and will make you feel nauseous at certain doses (25mg for me, 16 for some others). LSD + 2C-E was NUTS! The visuals are cool but the neutrality of the trips aren't really for me. Again, great for mixing.

2C-I - The 2C equivalent of MDMA IMO. Perfect for dance parties, good euphoria and great energy (Although I find 2C-B's body high to be more reminiscent of MDMA). Not overly visual until you get to 35-50mg ranges but below that you will have plenty of tracers, bright + vivid colours, and a positive mood boost. One of the easiest to enjoy, definitely.

2C-D - As far as I know this is the least potent 2C. Have had 2 wonderful trips with this chem but the old batch I had must have been contaminated because 40mg blew my top off. However, 50mg of a new batch was hardly visual. I hear 100mg+ is good but this can be very expensive. No real mood boost, minor stimulation. Unless you are down with giving yourself a psychedelic enema or putting a good amount up your nose; IMO this compound is best used for mixing. 40mg also gave me very heavy nausea and made me vomit, so no doubt 100+ will make you puke like crazy. Shulgin said this one at high doses was very good visually.

2C-C - One of my personal favorites. It is so much different than the other 2C-Xs. So calm and nicely visual at 50mg+. Elevates my mood but isn't "in your face" like the other 2Cs are. Visuals are similar to 2C-B but not as bright. Very relaxing, smooth come up (even at 65mg), and an easy decline.

Hope this helps.

2ci is a better choice for a light, but sparkling and enjoyable trip. I say light as in light on the mind, as the drug is very intense at +16mgs IME. I can see why some say it could be "The Next Ecstasy." Vibrant colors, ever-changing patterns and open/closed eye visuals. Pleasant body sensations and a strange pulsating hum that could be called auditory hallucinations are all prevalent effects I get on 2c-I. I took some 2c-E once, not enough to elaborate, but I know that it is much heavier a psychedelic. I also experienced nausea on E when I never have on I. There was a time when I may have preferred the deeper, heavier 2c-E, but not these days. I've been to the moon and back on LSD and am at a point where I only like to go so far...2c-I is PERFECT for that.
