2CD is great, very nice, visual, short acting, pretty emotionally neutral, I did it
i.m. which was pretty neat. My favorite "light phenethylamine," and I think would be a great tool as a gentle introduction to psychedelic therapy (also lasts a useful amount of time in which to conduct a brief [and reasonably billable, if we ever get there!] therapeutic intervention.) DOET is one that I never got to try, neither DOTFM, but both of them intrigued me. Only ever had the "big four" DOx. ALEPH was interesting but came off a little overrated because it was so mysterious and rare. I envy some of you guys for trying some of the new stuff that's coming out because the differences between compounds always fascinated me ever since I discovered Shulgin and soon thereafter, 2CT7, around the same time (pre-Web Tryp.) But I'm pretty much done with psychedelia, or psychedelia is done with me.
4-HO-DiPT and 4-AcO-DiPT are wonderful. 5-MeO-MiPT is circulating and this was one of my favorites (very
erotic material.) 4-HO-MPT and -MET are interesting to me but I never tasted them.

I think a lot of us around here harbor that addiction. When I was younger I used to have a briefcase filled with different vials and blotters/etc. If you've done it long enough and are lucky enough, you'll eventually get to a place where you've tried most of the existing things. It's really not to hard as long as you dedicate about a once a week dip into your stash to try the different rotations of things. After a couple of years you'll have a pretty large checklist of things you've tried. Then you just use the ones you like the most and get the most out of, and ocassionally use the new releases that are presented.
All sorts of this. And an addiction it really is. An addiction to novelty and breadth of drug taking and the simple fact of altering one's consciousness. Also a very male thing, for the same reason we like guns and fast cars, basically, I've come to realize. I tried compiling a "resume" of what I've done but I stopped when I got over 100 or so because it was getting a little ridiculous and felt more like bragging than any sort of useful cataloguing. (What sort of person can even
name over 100 drugs?) I was definitely that guy with a briefcase full of esoterica and pretty much every weekend for 5 years would host a little psychedelic salon where people would come over and sample different shit, listen to music, compare notes, etc. That was pretty neat, and I became pretty popular in a certain crowd because I would always be throwing these things with free and interesting drugs, good music, pretty girls, etc. But of course, as is wont to happen, the whole crowd bounced when the drugs dried up, mainly because I was getting too paranoid about holding that much shit and even more so because I was more and more interested in heroin, mephedrone and ketamine (guess the year? LOL), and conventional psychedelics began to bore me, save maybe
5-MeO-DMT and rather alarming doses of conventional psychedelics. YMMV.
I had that life, and that briefcase, and TBH I was totally degenerate. I have far too many addictive tendencies to have that kind of stuff around, not so much psychedelics, but whenever I had a novel stimulant or sedative or dissociative or something like that I would find myself doing it on a more or less daily basis if it agreed with me a lot. I'd also take psychedelics whenever the opportunity presented itself. Kudos to those who can do it under control, and do it in such a fashion that you may actually be able to expand our base of knowledge. I was able to do that on a small few occasions, to be the first do this or do that or have certain things analyzed or whatever, but really, I was more about reckless hedonism, even though I had a lot of pretensions to science or even "consciousness expansion." Again, YMMV. Congratulations to those who can walk the fine line. (But you are probably fewer in number than you imagine.)
Now I'm
old, and sad and bored, and not funny anymore, and just a grumpy drug culture color commentator with a bottle of Johnnie Black. Love y'all though, always.

Ah well. I have to say that psilocin analogues are the only ones that I'm truly obsessed about though, and the occasional base tryptamine trip. I haven't tried 4-AcO-DiPT yet but I have used 4-HO-DiPT a couple of times and it definitely seems to have some potential to me. I haven't dosed high enough on it yet to have too many traditional psychedelic visuals but the visions and psychological effects below that point were already impressive enough that I feel like a higher dose is where it will really shine.
