🌟🌟 Social 🌟🌟 PD Social Thread 2022-2025 v. Year of the Phenethylamine

More to the point, I'm pretty sure that 5-HT2b cardiotoxicity is caused by chronic exposure to the agonist, and that the exposure causes the proliferation of cell growth on the valves.
Re this risk, I wonder if there is an 5-ht2b antagonist that does not cross the BBB? If there was such a drug perhaps you could take it and it would mitigate this risk but not interfere with the mental effects of the psychedelic drug, because it would stay on the non-brain side of the body and counteract the agonism on those heart valve receptors (and probably reduce GI symptoms too)

hmmm
 
Hey everyone!!!

I haven't been on here for a while 'cuz I needed some time to get my s#!t together. After living on beer, Ativan and Klonopin for the last two years, I was down to 135 lbs. (I'm 5'9" and usually around 175) and wound up in the hospital with a-fib (irregular heartbeat) and dehydration.

I'm on Day Ten sober and I actually feel really good considering, although my anxiety, OCD, hypomania & insomnia have been a bit worse than usual (which I guess is understandable considering the withdrawal). I've even started working out again, which I need for both my body and mind.

Anyway, hope you all are doing well.

Much Love,
Dreamflyer

I’m finally having more time off from work, which means less money but I’d rather be a bit more frugal and have free time than work 60+ hour weeks.

Feels good. Gonna get some shit done the next two days and spend tonight drinking beer and tripping Psilacetin. Been pretty stable most days emotionally right now. Work is stressful in many ways but I’ve been finding the silver lining.
 
My Phenethylamine of the year... 2C-EF, what a fuckin blast!
I've been hearing nothing but good things from people who have reported on it. I really miss being able to get 2c's not named 2C-B
2C-B is fantastic but I sure do miss 2C-E, 2C-I and 2C-T-2 a whole lot

That's definitely a trade off. In the long run 60+ hour weeks doesn't sound the healthiest. I also much prefer to have more personal time at the expense of needing to be frugal. It sounds like you're in a good headspace :) I hope that you have a wonderful time with the psilacetin

For sure. Usually my weeks exceeded 72 hours for a while there, and I work in a very unhealthy, decaying environment as is so spending less time at work will indeed be healthy. And in the end I just spent the extra money on new toys rather than saving it.

I also just finished paying off a loan to replace my central A/C system and that'll free up hundreds a month for savings. And if I can hold out at my place of work for long enough I'll get raises and eventually transfer to a more Cadillac position. As is I'm in the good graces of my supervisors and put in better positions.



12mg in a gel cap consumed. .5mg alprazolam under my tongue and a beer to start. Got another cap with 15mg to chase the first one hour in :) I find it easier to deal with the come-up this way; stagger the doses, and take mild doses of downers.

Yeah, I'm really happy that 2C-EF sounds like it's a winner!

God, you all work long hours! It's been years since my schedule looked like that.
 
Feeling rather lonely today. My cats are being extra sleepy in the cold and I’m just listening to some Mannheim Steamroller before going to work. Wife is out of town visiting family since I drew the short straw and had to work last night and tonight.

We had a spread at work last night and it turned out well, good food. Tried to spread some holiday cheer about but I’m feeling pretty glum to be honest. And it’s hard to feel like it’s Christmas in a place like that.

I am not working on Christmas next year. I’d rather get written up than do this again. I miss my wife and my extended family who I have not seen much since my grandma passed this fall.
 
It seems like the 2C-x compounds haven't been studied much WRT neuroplasticity than some of the classic tryptamines like LSD, psilocybin, DMT. I have a hunch they aren't as potent in inducing neuroplasticity as those ones are, but I don't know obviously. Wondering what y'all think, and if I've missed any studies looking at this.
 
internet, mate. Most of it is shit.
Very true. But there is also decency that needs to be attached. When there isn't I call them keyboard chickens. Like it or not you are all real people that deserve respect. You start learning a little about people and they become human. I know some think the internet and posting is all either disingenuous or ingenuous. I prefer to treat posters as human beings.

DF hang in there. I would like the junk food. :)
 
Got two nights off. Work has been stressing me and I find more and more that I enjoy myself and like my job when I work with the opposite shift card for overtime. Even took a day off work to go to a barbeque with a bunch of friends off that shift. So I've decided I'm going to push to be switched to the opposite card. It has better supervisors and staff in general and I need to have friends at work to make twelve hour shifts pass faster. Plus it'd be nice to be able to see friends outside work without having to use any PTO.

I'm doing Dry January, so far so good. Not one drop in 15 days. Gonna use this to learn moderation and figure out how to enjoy myself more sober.

Gonna trip some psilacetin tonight with kratom, looking forward to watching some good films and taking it easy for one night.

In February I only have to work 7 of the 28 days of the month, I'm excited. Taking a 20 day vacation in the middle of the month, hell it'll be hard to go back to work heheh. Sure do love having a government job that pays out so well in benefits.
 
Oh neat! For me, I find they blunt each other, but a lot of people don't
I find them synergistic. The kratom and Psilacetin both give a body high that complements the other, sometimes it can be overwhelming. Plus the kratom takes some of the edge off; I want to blunt psychedelics, my days of tripping hard for enlightenment are long gone. It’s all hedonism now, except when I accidentally dose too high and end up a crying mess lol

Sorry I've been so quiet lately. The last 3 months or my life have been total hell as I've been going through topical steroid withdrawal. At first, I didn't know what I was getting into and thought it would only be bad for a few weeks maybe. After a month, I was in denial about how bad it was getting and how much the withdrawal process was fucking up my body and mind on top of my skin, and I started to do more research where I learned the TSW typically lasts much longer----at least 6 months and often for years. Still, my dependence was on the "weak", over-the-counter hydrocortisone, so I figured it would be milder and more brief. Instead things just kept getting worse, and about a week ago, I decided to try abort the withdraw and start reapplying hydrocortisone.

I'm in a much better place now but have a long way to go. My skin is still pretty trashed, my body feels totally out of whack, and psychologically, I'm still in shock from the trauma, disruption, and uncertainty of what's to come. Tragically information on TSW is thin and poor quality, and information on tapering instead of going cold turkey is almost non-existent. I know some people have done it, but the prevailing opinion in the social media groups and among the doctors who treated this before it was widely acknowledged is that tapering doesn't work. Official medical sources suggest tapering should be done, but don't give any useful advice on how. I'm anticipating needing to wait 4-8 weeks at a minimum between incremental reductions, because that's how long it really takes for the withdraw to fully manifest. Best case scenario is that I can complete the process in a year. Worst case scenario is that I'm addicted forever.

Anyway, I'm hoping I'll soon be feeling well enough to dabble some psychedelics again. Unfortunately, they massively amplify the miserable symptoms, so I need to be feeling almost all well before I can go there again. However, I'm cautiously optimistic that once I'm feeling better that the psychedelics might help. Certainly they ought to help me process the trauma I've just gone through.
 
Made it through Dry January. Feels good to have been sober from booze for a whole month, first time in over a decade I’d say.

Definitely gonna get a six pack tonight to celebrate though heh 😁 thinking I’ll just stick to beer for a while when I do drink.
