As many of you will be aware, Methiopropamine was temp banned in the UK on the 27th of November. This was the day that the 1 gram I had ordered arrived in my mail. It is now two weeks later. Having run out I would like to post a summary of my research findings ;-) I had read about the substance before and was unimpressed but the ban convinced me to try it while it was still available. Also vendors were giving it half-price over the last few days to clear out the stock. :o

The substance arrived in powdered form with several big rocky chunks in it. I measured about 5mg and insufflated. The burn was very nasty so I decided to discard this ROA. :p

I continued to vapourise the substance in my glass pipe over a candle flame. I quickly lost count of how much I was taking and, dosing compulsively, I guess I must have gone through about 100mg over the first night and into the next day. The vapour tasted like plastic and was unpleasant but not too bad. Effects hit me rather quick, in a matter of minutes, leaving me to crave for more after about 15 minutes or so. At first the high was very euphoric for me. =D I think this is because I haven't had any stims in about two months time prior to this experience. I would describe the high as a lot less euphoric than say ethylphenidate or speed, but at first it was definitely strong. I ended up drinking lots and lots of water, the air tasted sweet, I was focused in whatever I did and generally felt energetic. I had the exact same muscle tension in the jaw that you get from MDMA, but I took a tablet of magnesium and it didn't seem to help at all. Normally with MDMA, a magnesium tablet takes about half an hour for me to completely combat bruxism, but with MPA it was totally ineffective. At about the middle of the night my heart was racing at an unpleasant rate and I decided to drop a 10mg pill of Flubromazepam. Normally a benzo this strong would knock me out, but it just counteracted the unpleasantness from the MPA. I decided to stop dosing at around early morning and close my eyes to sleep for about an hour before going at it again. Now, at that time I did something that I knew was stupid but I did it anyway, I continued dosing well into the next day. At some point I felt nauseous and sick, and threw up a couple of times. At that point I realised that I had forgotten to eat for about 24 hours. In retrospect I should have expected that after my experiences with Ethylphenidate a long while ago, but these stims are powerful mindbending stuff. Anyway, I felt ill for a few days and had to stop taking it and made sure to sleep and eat somewhat. After a week of feeling lousy the next weekend had landed and I decided to proceed with my research a little more cautiously :)

Long story short, the initial euphoria gradually subsided as I was getting less and less sleep each day. There is definite habituation and tolerance over the days. The positive effects were reduced from strong euphoria to simple caffeine-like stimulation. The negative side effects included prolonged nausea, and a feeling of dread like something not being right; perhaps that something was my heart that was overexerting itself. After a few days the vapour smell would make me very nauseous and I went through these days by plugging small doses (~25 mg), only a few times a day. This was a lot better in that absorption was smoother and I avoided upsetting my stomach and lungs. The smell of the substance did pass through to my sweat as others report too. The nausea did not subside completely during that time, which leads me to think that it was a direct pharmacological effect, rather than simply vapour irritating my stomach.

It has been a couple of days since I ran out, and after having slept for two days straight I can say that I feel fine. I was coughing a bit and clearing my throat from residual vapour deposits but now I feel OK, considering what a nasty binge this had been. Overall it was a fun time but not too much fun, and obviously must have been bad for my health. In general I am particularly prone to binge on stims and generally lose control. 8o Over the last few days I was actually looking forward for the time I'd ran out.

I am glad that I didn't buy any more than one gram. This amount was enough to get acquainted with the highs and lows of this substance without getting too carried away. It is not a substance that I will miss, although there were some good times. The next time I want to fall into the same depths of depravity and loss of control I will go for a classical stim like speed or meth.

Mainly I'm glad that I did something worth reporting in BlueLight since the last few months have been nothing but boring old work. Come to think of it, I don't know if I ever submitted a TR about the 3C-E I did in September. I will check to find my notes and if I haven't submitted a report I will do so soon, as I imagine people are much more interested in reading about a rare Escaline derivative than this silly, dirty NDRI.
 
Is it very sulfur-y smelly? In my experience sulfur-y chems can have a pretty distinct taste/smell, let alone their combustion or metabolism products..
