eating a piece or two of raw cactus at the end of a night of rolling will buffer the comedown and make it more smooth. it brings your roll back and transitions you into a dreamy euphoric state where you'll get some cool visuals and rest easier. you don't need to eat a lot, just a couple 3 inch sticks (cut of a piece of cactus then despine and peel the waxy skin. cut off the ribs from the white core) washed down with some oj will do the trick. i think you should do the despining and peeling ahead of time. i'm surprised i havent' seen people talk about it more. i think that anybody into rolling should do this but i'll say that it's possible it won't work for you like it has for me. if you're like me though it's great. i think it's much much better for the comedown than pot even though that is enjoyable.

has anyone else tried this? what are your thoughts?
 
You mean mescaline cactus?


I don't see how that is going to be very pleasurable on the comedown.. for one, that shit is NASTY AS FUCK and makes most people puke... Two, mescaline cactus can take a good 2+ hours to kick in so it would take a LONG time after you ate it to feel anything. And lastly, taking psychedelics on an MDMA comedown is AWFUL. Last time I did that I had a traumatic experience that stayed with me for months.


I hear 2C-B a few hours after the roll is amazing, and mescaline is similar to 2C-B.... but I just can't see myself (or anyone else) happily choking down that cactus snot on a comedown :\
 
yeah, i meant mescaline cactus.

it is very pleasurable. it does taste gross. eating a couple cactus spears is better than some of the other things i've tried. it's better than chain smoking and it's better than pot. it doesn't take two hours to take effect. you probably wouldn't like it but someone like me definitely would.

i eat cactus raw. i can understand how people wouldn't like it but it's almost a source of manly pride. i can take shots of whiskey and eat cactus raw back to back. how bout that? machismo! :D

the awful taste triggers the roll back up to a pleasant level. it works.
 
Why wouldn't I like it lol?

I just don't agree with you that cactus would be the best for after a roll, other faster acting and shorter lasting psychedelics drugs (2C-B or ketamine) are much better for the same effect, IMO.




I was going to say that this thread should be merged into this one:

but I guess it's been archived. Maybe the mods can edit the title so this thread can discuss all drugs for the comedown and not just peyote/san pedro

i thought you were saying you wouldn't like it when you said that it wouldn't be pleasurable and tastes nasty as fuck and takes two hours to kick in.

i didn't say it was the best for everybody. i'm telling people that they might want to try it and that it works. 2-CB and ketamine aren't something i like or have much experience with.

i really don't want the thread merged or edited. you can make a different thread if you want.
 
I don't know for sure, but my intuition says comedowns mostly need time, rest, nutrition and exercise to get better. Adding a psychedelic just bombards your brain even more. I know it's hard but try to be patient.

it doesn't really make you more trashed. it buffers the comedown. cactus is more mellow and less speedy than mdma. i'm not suggesting people take a full dose or a shot of extract. what i'm talking about is eating an amount that wouldn't really have an effect on it's own but at the end of a night of rolling helps ease the comedown. two or three cactus spears about three or four inches in length wouldn't have an effect if you weren't already faded from rolling. it helps you sleep and relax it's not a stressful thing.

well after a night of rolling i feel stimulated and sometimes unsatisfied, like i want to smoke ciggarettes or take more or rearrange the furniture or something. i feel fine the next day. i like the feeling of being drained from rolling so i'm talking about the night of, tail end of the experience.

I know it's hard but try to be patient.

i'm not coming down. i don't think it's hard. i really like the feeling overall. i think other people would really find it pleasant. that's why i'm sharing. it feels great.
 
I cant sleep after taking acid or any psychedelic, the insomnia is criminal. The extreme nauseau from eating cactus isnt going to help either. Besides anything else, it's a massive waste of a drug that isn't paticularly available to many.
 
i am not a big fan of psychedelics...the last thing i want or need after eating two or three pills is something that is going to make confused as fuck or start to trip
 
^^ agreed add to that something that has the potential to make you very sick and maybe even splintered inside your mouth then perhaps the cactus gobble post comedown might not be such a good plan.
