As you may have recognized, I've been discussing my intentions to put together a mixture of organic substances to create a safe, natural and gentle alternative to dangerous and otherwise uncertain synthetics. I'm not bashing synths, nor am I trying to start the nature vs chemists discussion. I personally prefer natural drugs, especially historically proven ones, for personal reasons. My intention is NOT to recreate an 'ecstasy' experience or to develop a replacement. It is to create a unique experience with certain effects that I desire that come from natural sources that I personally put together.
The experience I'm looking for would be euphoric, stimulated and mildly visual, but most importantly, safe, non-toxic and 100% natural. As a habitual kratom user, I find kratom to deliver euphoric and stimulating effects, as well as empathy. With a low dose of mushrooms, I find lights to get brighter, colors deeper, music sounds a little better, and maybe some very slight visual effects. I figured putting these two together would deliver most of the effects I'm looking for. Once I experimented with mixing the two, I plan to take my findings and decide what to add or subtract. Here's my experience:
-0:40 - 400mg cimetidine (Tagamet) taken for kratom potentiation. In the end, I plan to use something natural for enzyme inhibition, but for now at the lack of something better, this has proven results in my experience so I will use it.
0:00 - ~8g kratom, premium commercial bali ingested w/ orange juice, one big gulp
0:10 - I wait a couple minutes to be sure the kratom plans to stay put (I'm experienced enough now to know it sometimes doesn't!). After deciding I feel just fine, I eat one moderate sized home-grown African Transkei mushroom, the biggest one in the bag, probably weighing upwards of a gram, maybe less.
0:15 - I chew up the mushroom good and wash it down. I already feel the very familiar effects of the kratom creeping in.
~1:00 - Full effects of the kratom being felt, as usual. I debate whether or not I may be feeling the mushroom's effects. I'm fairly certain I'm feeling adrenaline fill my body slowly. Could be the kratom because that has adrenal effects too, and it's not uncommon while peaking on kratom I get the 'shakes' from it. The kratom euphoria and slight anxiety I was feeling from the mushroom seemed to be fighting back and forth, with the adrenal effects slowly wining.
~1:10 - At about this time, I shove another <1g of shrooms into my pocket, and make my way to the bus to go to a rave we have been planning to go to. My gf and I are going to see Ferry Corsten spinning some old school trance, with Gabriel & Dresden opening. Very, very excited.
Walking up the block to the bus, I feel like I have endless amounts of energy. The shakes and adrenal anxiety completely diminish when I use the energy to power walk up the hill. My girlfriend starts running out of breath and complaining about it, and I felt "like I was on speed or something" to quote myself at the time. Not even breathing hard by the time we reach the bus stop. Feeling pretty euphoric at this point now that my blood is flowing!
As we got on the bus, my girlfriend drinks a 5hr energy shot. The bus ride downtown was uneventful as I sat there and just took a constant mental inventory on how I was feeling. I thought to myself that if I was any less experienced with the anxiety you get from psychedelics, I would be freaking the fuck out right now on the bus, with all these strange people here, adrenaline filling my body, hands shaking, uncertainty ahead, etc.. However I remained calm, collected and looking forward to getting over the peak from the shrooms, which always gives way to much more enjoyable effects. We got to the rave, met with friends outside, went in, had a drink, began dancing.
~2:30 - On the dancefloor, dancing the night away, absolutely loving the music. People watching, making fun of all the little kiddies rolling balls, having a great time. I'm noticing that I have way, way more energy than I normally do, and I feel like I can just dance, dance, dance and not have to stop to regain myself. I keep looking around to see if I notice any visual effects, and I'm not seeing anything notable. I decide to eat the remainder of shrooms in my pocket.
~3:00 - I can feel the second dose of shrooms coming on, more adrenaline filling my body, more energy coming forth, feeling more alert, noticing that I can hear absolutely everything. I can hear the floor squeeking from people dancing on it, I can hear little sounds like peoples gum wrappers, water bottles, conversations, all on the dance floor of a LOUD ass trance rave. I asked my girlfriend if she was able to hear the sounds that were standing out to me and she thought I was crazy. I felt like the lights and colors got slightly more intense, but nothing I'd call a ++ experience.
~4:00+ - We danced the night away until about 1:30am, and then called it quits. I still felt like I could keep dancing but the lady was fizzling out. We hailed a cab and went home, smoked a bowl and went almost immediately to bed. I was still very stimulated and feeling the pulse of the music. After laying there for a while, I felt myself slipping deeper into a full on trip. As I lay there, I got tons of visuals in the darkness, CEV's, trippy thoughts, and non-stop organic trance music being composed in my head. This kept me awake pretty much all night until it started getting light out. I eventually fell asleep and woke up the next day feeling like a new person.
In conclusion I found this to be fun, but left me wanting a little more. I was hoping to get some visuals but wasn't really treated to much until I got home and layed in a dark room. The stimulation was nice but not worth wasting half a bag of shrooms on. I also found that the anxious adrenal energy you get could be very jarring to someone not experienced with psychs. My intention is for this mixture I'm making to be fun to share with friends, and I don't think many of my friends would understand this.
I plan to work more on it. Thanks for reading!!
