AM-2201 - Tolerance to Reverse Tolerance after Butylone Binge
I'm 24 and been a daily smoker since i was 16. when i rip a bong it's always the same .25 herb and .05 tobacco killed in one rip, i love that smack to the face it gives you. But after a while that smack would be diminished and I'd have to adjust my smoking schedule to once a day to really get the effect out of it that I wanted, but ideally I like to smoke 3 times a day, so AM-2201 was like a godsend to me. I got my hands on a large quantity and played around with AM-2201 for a while. I loved it, perhaps a little too much, I found that using the AM-2201 I could get to that headspace i wanted more often then just three times a day, which just was not possible with normal cannabis. I started "fast forwarding" through life which is what i call it when i wake up, smoke, fall asleep and repeat. With buds eventually i'd reach a point where i wasn't getting the high i wanted so I'd slow back to once a day but this shit was great, it could always get me there although i had to keep increasing the dosage. As time went on I developed a massive tolerance over time to the point where i would mix in 100 mg into a single bong rip after eating half a gram of the shit(mmm cookies). This led to some problems though because if someone took some of my shit to smoke or if there was enough AM-2201 residue in my slider they might OD on it After that I went on to just vaping the pure powder, since i could use less because i wasn't wasting any being burned until i needed like 5-6 dry bong packings(aproximately 200mg) per session. Then one night(well actually 2) I went on a massive butylone binge, about 2.5g oral spaced out and another 2.5g applied transdermally on lidocaine patches. Not sure how effective the patches were but definitely affected it because i was up the entire second night but hadn't taken any Butylone since like 6:00PM possibly even earlier, like 2:00PM. Throughout this binge i was, of course, sucking down the AM-2201 and also smoked a damiana/AM-2201 mix i had(2g/oz) to end the night since i killed the rest of my bud. I never smoke damiana blends but wanted the feeling of smoke in my lungs. The next day i went to smoke my AM-2201 just like usual and after one hit I was sent into hyperspace. I had never been so high before in my life and i even experienced my first panic attack and had to get a diazepam from my mom and curled up in bed with her, I was literally afraid that I had "done it" and reality was totally falling apart, my life was over, welcome to death, or really welcome to the realization that you are in hell. I've had very much the same experiences on lsd or other hallucinogens in high doses at my peak. Until I realize that if this is hell I might as well enjoy it the best I can and not worry about it. I can usually abort from this state by taking a bong rip which just snaps me back to reality( i think this is because I'm always high and my body's so used to it that being high is it's normal state. Despite this I continued to use AM-2201 multiple times daily however everytime i did it I'd experience the anxiety again not as bad as that first day but I also made sure to vape much smaller doses from that point on, still many times I had to abort the vape state with a regular bong rip and a few of these abort rips even had some AM-2201 in it which leads me to believe that I'm sending myself into a panic attack remembering that first experience. Sometimes I feel like I'm no longer myself and becoming someone else. Seeing my actions as the same actions that the people around me make just not as intense. Feels like I'm caught in a loop sometimes too, get massive deja vu(Oh No not again feeling). I also realized that i just wasn't getting sober I was literally permastoned and not just lazy and whatnot but like can't stand up straight floor moving like on a boat in rough water, I usually experience the floor moving since I suffer HPPD(permatryp) but more like a boat on mostly still water. It was fun, much like the after peak body effects of LSD with some slight visuals but distinctly cannabinoid not LSD like
I have some theories
1) It was caused by the butylone comedown causing anxiety and hence a panic attack. This experience then fueled the future experiences.
2) During my Butylone binge i was holding my bag of AM-2201 open and my hand started to shake and got AM-2201 everywhere i think i inhaled a good portion and it was all over my hand. So I may have a coating of AM-2201 in my lungs or possibly absorbed into my hand slowly being released from the fat or lungs into the body. Kinda like how when you eat brownies then smoke you get so much more toasted
3) I wasn't properly vaping the AM-2201 at first. To note, on the day the AM-2201 effected me so harshly, I tried a new way of laying the screen in the bong i used to push it down the female tube about half an inch in this time i barely put it in, just enough so it wasn't loose in the tube.
4) I hit the holy grail of drug addicts - Reverse Tolerance(possibly due to liver damage from the AM-2201 still containing some napthalene moiety or due to the AM-2201 itself)
5) The AM-2201 degraded into another more active chemical, or should i say potentiated since degrade connotes loss of potency
6)Everytime I closed the bag I'd squeeze out all the air and rolled it up perhaps I condensed the am- 2201 so more looked like less
Any other theories would be welcome
