Summer of Love
Ex-Bluelighter
Despite what people think of nutmeg as an entheogen, i have actually found it to give me some very spiritual, mind expanding, and dreamlike experiences. I have been using nutmeg around once every couple weeks for around a year now(either alone or with around an 8th of cub. mushrooms), and recently got my liver checked to see if the nutmeg did any damage(blood test),and my results were totally normal. I do not like to think of nutmeg as a drug to use when out of other psychedelics or just in desperation in general, as i have nearly constant access to other substances. I like to think of it as a totally different and foreign experience, which it definately is, much like dxm, which i personally dislike myself.(damn itching drives me crazy)
The last time i used nutmeg was on christmas day, and i used nutmeg alone without mushrooms. I was visiting my family, which i really dislike because all they do is critisize my lifestyle and just try to bring me down in general. At around 11 that morning, i crushed up 8 medium sized, and quite oily, whole nutmegs, put the crushed material in a cup, and washed it down with milk(only bad thing for me about nutmeg is that awful bitterness). chocolate i have heard enhances the absorbtion, so i always eat a small amount before i take the nutmeg, and it does seem to speed up the onset. The thing with nutmeg is you should never expect it to kick in quickly, as it always takes around 4-6 hours for the effects to come on. DO NOT redose if it seems to be taking too long to come on, and never eat a large amount before taking it.
I was in the bedroom watching tv at around 3:15, when i started feelign the effects come on. the initial effects feel similar to a few hits of moderate strength cannabis. Music was enhanced, colors seemed a bit brighhter, mouth is dried out, and a numb like feeligng throughout my entire body. I put on some sublime, and put caress me down on repeat(whcich is really trippy while on nutmeg) while playing some grand theft auto waiting for the effects to intensify.
At around 5, the effects felt similar to a very large dose of cannabis, with a powerful numbing sensation, music sounded like it was playing inside of my body, mild closed eyed visuals,and nutmeg is also an appetite stimulant, so i was very hungry. Eat when you feel hungry, because eating a good meal when the effects come on seems to speed up the peak. I called up a friend and went out for some chinese, which tasted extremely good while on nutmeg and seemed to spread even more warmth and numbness throughout my body. nutmeg also works as an aphrodisiac for me. I've only had sex one time on nutmeg(she was also on it) and it made the orgasms both of us very mind-blowing and intense, and seemed to really increase stamina also.
I got back dinner at around 7, feeling much more intoxicated than at 5, and the experience peaked at around 8:30 pm(9 hours and 30 minutes later) and lasted until around 2:30 before startinng to come down. The peak of a nutmeg experience is very unique, especially while with another person on nutmeg too. It feels much like an extremely high dose of hash, but with also a somewhat dxm like disassociation to it, and visuals akin to around 2.5 grams of mexican cub. mushrooms. The msot mindblowing part for me has to be the auditory hallucinations. I often hear strange breathing sounds, pieces of songs, and things ive tlaked about during the day, quite clearly. Music sounds very strange and surreal, much like high cannabis doses, but with a strange echoing and looping quality to it also. my body is extremely numb, almost opiate like, and nausea is nonexistant almost all the time. Although nutmeg has some chemicals that are precursors to psychedelic anphetamines, i feel that the experinece is absolutely nothing like that of those sorts of drugs. The body is very, very relaxed, empathy doesnbt seem to be effected, although there is a very significant mood lift, and the body sensations are much more like cannabis than that of the md_ types of drugs. Damn this is long, i need to stop taking adderol to concentrate, it just amkes me babble my ass off, haha.
I forgot to say also that before around the 6 hour mark, there is mild nausea, which can be easilky taken care of by eating around 5 hours after ingestion, and also seems to speed the peak up as i said before. ONLY use whole nutmegs, i have tried the pre ground nutmeg, and i can see why people have so many nasty experiences on nutmeg, as it made me very very nauseous, which the whole nuts i buy really dont do too much, and none at all during the peak. dont eat a large eal before tkaing it, and take it in the morning so you can feel the whole experience. falling asleep and waking up on nutmeg for some reason seems to cause terrible headaches, which never happen if i stay awake through it. dont use it expecting a cannabis substitute. it is similar in soem ways, but if expecting a cannabis buzz, i doubt you will enjoy it at all. My friend nick took 8 nuts, same dose as i always take, expecting a cannabis like buzz, and ended up having a very bad trip. he could even turn his light off without beign frightened by strange visuals and becoming amazingly paranoid. Treat nutmeg like any other psychedelic, and chose your environment wisely. the same environments good for dxm seem to work fine for nutmeg, and be sure to have music, because it really, really enhances the experience. smoking cannabis during the trip seems to intensify it during the high, but also seems to dilute the nutmeg and almost terminate all the effects once the cannabis wears off. alcohol with it is very dangerous. Mushrooms though, seem to have an excellent synergy with nutmeg, intensifying both experiences, and sometimes making it quite overwhelming. Note that like some other substances(like saliva) nutmeg doesnt seem to work nearly as well for some people, and some people i have had try it got even more intense results than i did, so always start with a very low dose(1-2 nuts) and work your way up to what suits you.
In conclusion, nutmeg is a powerful substance, which i really dont think should be taken as lightly as it has been. It's gotten a very abd reputation, most likely because people use the old ground shit instead of fresh whole nuts like you're supposed to, falling asleep during the beginning, or just doing it way too late in the day to be able to stay awake for the peak. It's also ideal to have some cannabis for the after effects the next day(not unbearable, but annoying at times, just really damn tired)Hopfully ive opened some minds to a potentially great experience.
