First experience:

I took about 150mg, as I am quite sensitive to pills. I was on GBL at the time, and throughout. I started feeling some slight alerts after about 20 minutes, a bit of a 'buzzy' feeling, and a bit chatty. I took about another 20mg nasally about an hour after. A bit after this, the view outside looked a lot nicer, and I was just sat at my balcony doors, with my mate, chatting loads, and smoking fags one after another. Much like MDMA. I felt very 'buzzy', like a pleasant feeling of energy in the body. I felt energetic, as normal (ADHD), I could've ran, or danced, with great ease. This stuff made me jiggle my legs about, a lot, as per MDMA. I felt happy, slightly empathic, and loved-up, and I could close my eyes and relax very easily. My head felt very clear - MDMA mashes my head up quite a lot, these days. My pupils were slightly dilated. Between hours 2 and 3 after taking it, I started taking pills, because I wasn't satisfied. My pills didn't hit me as hard, and I was quite disappointed, as I thought they would hit harder in combination with the methylone. In all, I was disappointed with it. It would be nice in a club, for a less mashed up feeling and more ability to dance.

I must say at this point, that my mate had 200mg, then about 30mg snorted. He had one dose of GBL beforehand. He really enjoyed it and felt like I did, but more so. My other mate had 200mg and was absolutely fucked - bearly able to stand when coming up, massively dilated pupils, very loved up and happy. Exactly his reaction to a good pill. He took GBL throughout the experience, and it seemed to make the high (for him) better (like pills). This has lead me to believe that I didn't take enough. I was worried about taking too much at once, due to my sensitivity to pills. I would try this again, at a higher dose, and I expect my reaction would be very similar to my other friends, especially the one who was very fucked, as we both are quite sensitive.

Give it a go, it's enjoyable, and easy on the head. Even though I took pills with it, I still felt better than normal the day after. I wish I had taken more.
 
I'd try it without loading up on GBL before and throughout. I'm willing to bet that it dulled the experience. Taking it on the comedown would be a good idea though, I think... without a buffer, methylone crashes annoyingly, although, as you say, the next day you feel fine. That's the main reason I now prefer it over MDMA, because the latter fucks with my emotions and energy level so much for days.
 
You won the bet. Any kind of depressant takes away from the effects of entactogens and psychedelics. Methylone is very gentle...even though it totally floors me (same as MDA and MDMA), but it is still subtle. A depressant will surly detract from the effects. Even in general…set and setting are so key with methylone. I took it twice (at 180mg) and had mediocre experiences. I had then come to consider methylone to be little than a drug with an MDMA-like body-buzz and nothing more to offer.

But my third time with it, I took it at night while camping in the desert with my partner. It was her first go…and we went into it thinking we were in for a mild recreational experience. But that night proved to be one of the most powerful entactogenic experiences ever.

And I too am very sensitive to MDA and MDMA….110mg of MDA is actually too much for me, and 120mg MDMA floors me. But with methylone, I find anything under 175mg to be a little short.

I've always found that GBL enhances my MDMA experiences. I thought this would be true of methylone. GBL releases serotonin, too.
 
While MDMA usually floors me somehow, methylone only does at megadoses if at all. I have recently used methylone to make music multiple times, and it has consistently been an excellent tool for that - over an hour of non-stop playing perfectly possible without any moments like on MDMA where I just wanna run my fingers across the drum-machine or over the keyboard for a sensual experience or roll about on the floor or hug the microphone or just generally stop making music and moan about how amazing the world is.
 
I wish MDMA still affected me like that. For some reason, even though I never abused it, after the 6th or 7th time I used it (over a 2 year period), it just seemed to lose its magic and has turned into hedosim for me. Fun, nice, but none of that universal love. Damn.
 
I guess methylone is a bit like that for me. That, and heaps of borrowed confidence along with a whole lot of empathy that sometimes later gives way to either fiending or feeling a bit melancholic.

Having said that, MDMA too can bring on hedonistic tendencies in me. And still, somehow, it has a special magic, not far off what you'd call 'universal love'.
 
I just can't get into methylone. It brings out my dark side, gives me negative thought loops and makes me feel very anti-social. I've decided not to take it again after two tries that were not very fun. It's the first chemical I've taken that didn't agree with me. It made me feel bad about myself but in such an obsessive way that it was not at all productive. I just knew I was a bad, selfish person and there was nothing I could do about it. The only good thing I found about methylone was erotic enhancement, and that can be found elsewhere.

Interestingly, since my last not-to-pleasant methylone experience I've really wanted to take some 4-ho-dipt or 4-ho-mipt and do something creative. I feel like I need a deep and centering tryptamine experience...to deal with the wack shit the methylone brought up.

It's a shame, because most people seem to enjoy methylone.
 
/\ What were your dosages on methylone? I've been thinking that anything under a full breakthrough dose might do this to people. It could, as MGS has suggested, also be to do with setting.

But you are right, there is a sinister component to M1. I too have experienced it at times.... if the setting is inappropriate, it can get pretty dark. I know two people who, while travelling from A to B while on it, independently from each other, had feeling of anger/irritability that they almost certainly wouldn't have had if they had been sober.
 
I think you're right about dosing too low, I only took 170 the first time and 150 the second.

I don't think I'm going to try methylone again for a while, even though I know I didn't really immerse myself in what it has to offer. It just felt like a big "meh" to me. As said above, I think I'm gonna jump on the tryptamine train for a little while and see where that takes me...I feel like getting into something intricate and layered.

You're not alone, I still use MDMA/MDA every once in a while, but it's definitely not like it used to be, and I really never abused it before either.
 
god bless methylone
