Mescaline is one of the oldest hallucinogens, with evidence of use dating back 5700 years and in the trip it shows! An incredible naturally occurring alkaloid found in the peyote buttons,…you know that stubby lil cactus that is mostly underground, There’s something about digging something out out of the Mexican desert 🏜️ that makes it feel like something you did in another life.
The Huichol tribe they take it like communion like a sacrament in religious ceremonies when they are tripping balls to the walls they get healing skills and then they See their Gods and chop up conversations with them they are animists meaning that they believe all living things have a soul, even weather systems! have souls and inanimate objects have souls I think this is part of the ancient visions the peyote plant itself has a spirit and wisdom too my family group think the same thing about LSD crystals. I posted something about that and some sad girl was just so negative telling me I was full of shit and my family was too! I couldn’t believe how close minded she was being especially on a psychedelic post. apparently, she had never held a 10 g jar because you can feel the vibes coming off of it when you open the jar 🫙 it permeates the air and you know if you make a phone call for an example you’re putting the crystal on the phone because that’s what’s doing all the thinking through you. I took it. It kicks in slow like ( Hunter S. Thompson) said on fear and loathing in Las Vegas the movie with Del Toro I think anyway enjoy it up “you start to curse the creep that burned you and then Wham! it kicks in I took the equivalent of 600 to 1000 mg of masculine it was the most intense trip I had ever had. The visuals had sound effects I was eating straight masculine at a festival in the Mark Twain national Forest on a 350 acre lot it was bought by The Scwagatock heads bought this campground that was an old Girl Scout camp from the 20s. It was purchased for a very large number and then sold back to the preservation society for $50,000 which was pocket change in comparison to what they originally paid for it, but the preservation society let us throw festivals on it it started to come on strong and I remember thinking oh shit I’m gonna freak out and I am telling this to this younger hippie couple and the man told me I was lucky to eat the mescaline that weekend because it was made up special at the camp I said to the man I think “I’m going to freak out, and he put his hand in the air and switched it to the side, saying that masculine is beautiful and when he said it, I saw the words beautiful appear in the air
And I was ok but 2 hours later I couldn’t even break up any weed.
 
I had my first proper mescaline trip with 500mg of synthetic mescaline hcl a couple months ago. It was awesome, much more visual than I expected. Way different than eating cactus. It was a hoot.
 
Interesting post, my favorite movie is Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas. I watched that about 100 times. Mescaline sounds very interesting. I was wondering if I could take a small dose & what the effects would be like. How long does that trip last?
I do not like to have intense trips where I lose control. My most intense trip was definitely DMT where I left my body & went into another dimension where I saw the big mantis being with hook like protrusions throughout his body & he was holding his hand out & a reddish pinkish spinning ball was floating above his palm spinning fast , changing colors & he told me telepathically that this spinning ball with a square or pyramid inside ( I couldn't tell) was what allowed our existence to take place.
I then saw the LOVE ( I was telepathically told that it was the most powerful force in the universe) I then saw the endless shafts of light that was indeed the LOVE of my Mother( she passed in 2008) & I saw another shaft from another woman who is a family member by osmosis. She had a child daycare & she watched over us & she was at all of our family dinners & holidays. I can say I love her as family. She is still alive & her LOVE protects me as well. The love & prayers of your loved ones does indeed protect you. I could care less if nobody believes this.
That substance changed me for a good month. I was humbled into an introspective disposition where I felt I wasn't myself for a bit. My ego was nullified for a time.
These substances do put the user in touch with a more spiritual realm that not everyone can understand. That's why shamans exist to interpret these spiritual messages.

Mescaline is something you really want to jump into full dose. My few times taking smaller doses from eating cactus were unremarkable. The trip itself lasts around 16hr. I would be careful if you aren't experienced.
 
Yeah , I would probably not use that. I no longer use mushrooms either due to the similar feeling of opioid withdrawal for me. The uneasy feeling & the shocks up & down the spine cemented my choice to never use it again.

Thank you Mailman

Dosing serotonergic psychedelics induces a state similar to opioid withdrawal for you? That sounds unfortunate.

Oh, I have to disagree. Small doses of mescaline are like a smooth long-lasting ecstasy with no hang-over. The other thing is that some people just don't tolerate mescaline well, and it's always good to start conservatively because even experienced people can be overwhelmed if they are sensitive to it.

Having said that, each substantial increase to the dose adds adds a new layer to the effects, and high doses are indeed very profound. Also, cacti vary all over the place, but plenty if prepared skillfully are more than adequate for a full 16 hour+ journey to mesca-land.
 
If you respect it and do it on the right day, mescaline is nothing to be afraid of, especially if you have previous experience with other psychedelics. It has a very broad range of useful dosages.

I'm like that with all psychedelics. I do not enjoy threshold doses of serotonergic psychedelics. My brain is already very sensitive so it just puts me in this weird emotional pseudo anxious mood. Everybody is different. But in general its always a good idea to test a drug you aren't familiar with, I didn't necessarily mean to suggest against that.
 
Peyote is critically endangered - anyone taking wild peyote today needs killing.

But yeah mescaline is beautiful - but eating cactus is the most horrendous shit Ive ever swallowed and the nausea is absolutely fucking horrendous and ruins the trip completely

I'll give you this, I'm a super intense nerd about Lophophora of all varieties (williamsii and otherwise), and I have been trying to get to connect with poachers for a long time so that I can turn their dumb asses in to local authorities over it. I've yet to find any, however there is absolutely a large and thriving community of people who cultivate it for consumption in their own home. I've consumed peyote three times, all three times I grew it myself.
