I have experimented with 2c-t-2, 2c-e, mescaline, and 2c-t-7.
2c-t-2:
I've used this one three or four times from a single batch/supplier in doses from 18mg to 23mg.
- Trip timing: This one is like a ninja; I don't feel anything but a slight stoning and nausea until four hours in, when it all hits me like a ton of psychedelic bricks. The peak is marked by confusion, visual/auditory hallucinations, and ego dissolution/death.
- Visuals: They aren't too significant until you smoke some cannabis. I've seen a specific effect when a friend hit a bong, the lighter's flame expanded into a horizontal line across my vision, and the air movement caused my brain to feel like it was being compressed through the downstem. This scared me, and led me into a bout of paranoia/confusion. I don't notice any 2c-e like patterning, instead I got mescaline-like geometricization.
- Auditory: Not much sound distortion. During the peak, music is very strongly tied into the experience emotionally and visually. Different rhythms change the trip, it's not easy to explain. When alone in a bathroom with an exhaust fan running, I heard voices that I assumed were my friends/parents/the collective trying to talk to me, but could not see them.
- Mental headfuck is plentiful for me on 2c-t-2. When I start to lose it, the toxic body feeling leads me to believe I am OD'ing. The negative body load was psychosomatic in most cases, and ceased when problems were resolved or I stopped fighting dissolution.
My first mistake I've made on a grand scale with psychedelics came when I took three dime baggies with a little bit of 2c-e, 2c-i, and 2c-t-2 residue in each (my roommate's reasoning was that there was probably enough in the bags for one person to trip. in hindsight, I'd estimate I ate 25mg of each substance at least that day). I poured water into each, dumping it into a glass each time. When all the bags were cleaned, I drank the glass. I've taken large (900mg+) amounts of mescaline in liquid before, and this was an even worse taste. An hour and a half later, I was in a fierce battle for my ego, flying through the various possibilities my life could be in at that moment, and finally gave in to its lesson. I yelled out to my roommate, who came into the bathroom and asked what was happening. I told him I didn't know where I was or what was going on. He told me I had taken a huge dose of some psychedelic, and it'd all be over soon. I asked for a xanax to reduce the effects, and he suggested against it. When I questioned that, he said "Why would you want to abort something that feels this good?", and upon that, the trip changed into an ecstatic forest adventure. Amazing synergy when you take large amounts of everything, haha. For the record, the main peak felt like 2c-e with the amazing confusion of 2c-t-2. The 2c-i did not make its presence known until later on, with amazing stimulation and visual character.
As if I hadn't learnt my lesson, I mixed 23mg 2c-t-2 with 500mg mescaline in an unfamiliar setting in the city, an hour away via train/bus. Time travel was involved (analogue clocks spinning endlessly, digital clocks extremely unreliable), as well as sensory overload on every level. I could see my way around the party as people's faces aged and distorted in front of my eyes, but audio was completely garbled, as glitchy as improperly downloaded music files. I wouldn't recommend doing this.
Conclusion: the toxic feeling from 2c-t-2 make it not worthwhile, though otherwise it has great [scary] healing/mystical powers (this one taught me about the collective life force).
2c-t-7:
This one is just uninteresting (to me). I ordered a large quantity and have experimented with doses from 15mg to 45mg.
The first two hours of the trip have me feeling higher than I've ever been (in terms of being 'stoned'). It's not very enjoyable, mostly a 'blah' feeling during which I don't want to move or talk. Just sit and stare. Not that there's any mental aspect to this trip, it's a very blank/spacy headspace. During my 45mg dose, the most prominent aspect to the trip was the extremely vivid CEVs (kaleidoscopic fractals swinging around), intense OEVs (the most intense colours I've ever seen), synaesthesia (I could taste those aforementioned colours), and the overall INTENSITY of the experience. Every few minutes I'd feel some huge CNS surges in the form of stomach butterflies or vertigo.
I never found music to be very integral to the t-7 experience. Nature walks are good, video games are good, TV is boring.
10mg 2c-t-7 (not noticeable on its own) with 1 tab of weak blotter (threshold activity) led to a very synergistic experience that I'd recommend as a good use of 2c-t-7. Smoking a DMT-laced joint at the peak outside overlooking a river led to a very interesting experience, which can only be described by saying nature became a four-dimensional book.
