Report:
So, I had a small pile of methcathinone sitting on a ceramic plate. It was only a portion of what SWIM manufactured, but it was dried separately so as to be able to gauge the effects of the drug. Taking an unknown quantity of any drug is a stupid thing to do, but I’ve read reports of people consuming up to 300 mg of mcat at a time, and 720 mg was produced, assuming 100% yield, and this was definitely less than half of what was made, so I assumed I’d be safe. I dumped this pile of off-white powder into a glass with some orange juice, and drank it down. I could definitely taste something bitter in the juice, so I poured another cup to wash away the taste and get any mcat remaining in the cup into me.

I decided that I’d go outside and have a cigarette, and I had somewhere to be in a few hours so I took a shower. While I was in the shower I noticed that I couldn’t stop biting the inside of my lip, and I couldn’t keep myself from moving my arms. I thought ‘shit, this actually works!’, and sure enough, as soon as I got out of the shower I took my pulse and it was about 120 bpm, up from my normal 80 or so.

Being a singer and guitarist in a band, I decided to break out my crappy fender and have a go at playing some of my band’s songs. This wasn’t interesting enough so I sat down behind my drumset. I’ve only been playing for six months, but shit, I was drumming faster and more accurately than I ever had before. More importantly, I was able to improvise new, complex drum patterns easily. After about thirty solid minutes of drumming I decided to give my heart a rest and sit down at the computer. I chatted with some people while listening to the punk band Against Me! VERY loudly. I noticed not only did mcat make me a better drummer, it made me a better singer as well. I ad no trouble hitting any high notes, as I have a somewhat low singing voice, and articulation and volume were no problem. I was typing ridiculously fast, but more accurately than I usually do.

I heard that mcat was a drug that makes you want to party and dance around, and it’s true. I ended up just getting up and skanking (ska dancing) to Against Me! before checking the clock and realizing I had to go. The walk to the train was rather intense, and I made it in about five minutes, quite a feat for me at least, considering that it’s half a mile or so away. I met a friend who was on his way to work as I walked, and almost immediately he asked if I was tweakin. I emphatically replied that I was, and that he should try some some time.

I began to come down shortly thereafter, and I was surprised by the short duration, but I was also pleasantly surprised by the quality of the methcathinone experience. I heard it was empty stimulation, devoid of the euphoria of real meth, and while this may be true, it is definitely a worthwhile and fun drug in and of itself. I think I’ll take a smaller dose before the next show I play or the next show I go to. I was also surprised I didn’t really crave it afterwords, as I’d read reports on Erowid that stated that even one dose was enough to get you mildly fiending.

Conclusion:
Methcathinone is worth the time and money to synth, and is quite a good time despite reports to the contrary. I think as an experiment I’ll take some and write a report on it while I’m still all uppity and whatnot, to see how long it gets. I’m glad I discovered it!

EDIT: Also, I'd like to compare this to two other easy to get stimulants. Caffeine is easier to get than MCat, but the 'high' is nowhere near that of MCat. However, I think a small dose of this in the morning would wake me up quite nicely, much better than coffee, as I didn't get the jitters like I get from a few shots of espresso. This brings me to methylphenidate, aka Ritalin or Concerta. I enjoy Concerta because I get 32 mg for 50 cents. I mean, at that price, its worth taking such a ridiculously shitty stimulant. However, I notice my chest feels tight when I'm on Concerta, and when I smoke a cigarette this becomes very uncomfortable. On Methcathinone none of this unpleasantness is noticeable. The cigarette didn't do much for me, but another helped with the comedown, and I noticed no tightness of the chest, nor did I notice any drymouth. MCat can be made easily, and its much better than most other cheap stimulants I've tried, so it's really worth it.

SWIM is a stupid way of trying to point the feds away from you when you are admitting that you consumed drugs. "Someone (or somebody) who isn't me"... Its retarded.

On the Mcat though, that sounds pretty interesting... Did you have that urge to take more soon? I find with meth, when I come down, I want to do more and more and more... which is why I quit doing it. Also, how was the "crash" compared to meth?
 
SWIM is a pretty stupid method of giving yourself away, but on the other hand I can't be busted for having drugs in my blood.

I felt up for about three and a half hours. I hear MCat sucks as a study aid, but I'd disagree. While its much more conducive to dancing around like a fool, I think a lower dose could be pretty useful for focusing on reading material.

I didn't want to take more as much as I expected. It was there, kinda like 'shit, that was fun, I wish i could do more' but it was only in the back of my mind.

As for the crash, I felt lousy afterwards, but some coffee took care of that. I'm sure if I had dosed again the crash would have been much much worse.
 
toxicferret (or anyone with relevant experience), have you done methamphetmine, or cocaine before? how does the MCAT compare to these stimulants?
 
I have tried Methcathinone as well. I found it stupefying. I would rather take Pseudoephedrine to stay awake than rely on Mcat.

The stimulants I tried are (d)Amphetamine, Methylphenidate, Cocaine, and Methcathinone. I rank them in this order.

Keep in mind that I generally hate stimulants, though.
 
I haven't gotten a chance to try real meth yet unfortunately so I can't compare it. However, I find cocaine to feel better than methcathinone, although I would take methcat over coke any day because it lasts a while and is dirt cheap, at least if you make it yourself.
 
Vis a vis using the acronym SWIM - knock yourselves out. Use it as much as you want. I do not want any admissions of possession in here. EVER.

This is a great report! I can't say I approve of taking unmeasured doses, I highly advise you get safe and get scales, but other than that?....
