Questions regarding 2c-i

I looked around the 2c-i thread and it's hard not to be a little confused....
I have 2 caps, both with what I was told have 18mg, although I did use a little bit to test them,

(thats another question I came upon, I tested them with an EZ Test Kit, and it turned dark green indicating that it was in fact a 2c chemical, but how do I know if its actually 2c-i like I was told or If it is another 2c chemical?)

So anyways, after reading im realizing that it really depends on the person, what dosage to take. And ive read people saying 18 is too much, and that their sweet spot is at a lower dosage than the first time they tried it. .... so im wondering how to go about this. This is the first time ive done any phsych and I probably wont do 2c-i again so I want it to be a good time. So I want to take some out so that its not an overwhelming experience but I dont want to take out too much so that it doesnt do anything at all.....??

Suggestions?
Tips for the first time?
 
Without a milligram scale it'll be impossible to know how much your taking. I've never tried 2c-i but if it was me and it was 20mg then I would take 10-15 and wait an hour. Then do however much more seems to be the right dose.
 
drink lots of water, have a benzo or other muscle relaxer available, smoke lots of weed, and do it with a friend

i used to dose upwards of 50mg, but thats definitely high. i guess my point is if you want to take both, go for it. but itd be better with a low dose and a friend.

you tripped on anything else?
 
this is probably going to get merged...

if you were told it's 2ci and there is a tiny bit of powder in the capsule, then it's probably 2ci. it's one of the cheapest 2c compounds and most people enjoy it more than the other 2c compounds.

18mg is pretty close to a sweet spot for most people. undershooting the dose usually ends up with increased bodyload because you don't fully get into an enjoyable psychedelic state.

if you don't plan on doing a shulgin-esque work-up in dose (1mg test, wait a week, 2mg test, wait a week, 4mg test, wait a week, etc etc etc) then i would just do the whole 18mg in one go. since it's your first time with a psych, i would read a bunch of trip reports so you know what NOT to expect (rule number one of psych club is don't expect anything in particular)

are there any close friends you trust to be with you for this experience or are you planning on going it alone?

1. don't forget to drink water and eat snacks. dehydration or hyponatremia are never fun
2. if you go outdoors, be prepared for any change in weather
3. music!
4. go with the flow, take deep breaths, and remember that the world is a beautiful place

i'm sure you'll have a great time
 
I wouldn't take both caps, I enjoy 20mg's of 2c-i but it does have a bit of stimulation that can be a bother...especially when the carpet starts to spiral and your leg turns into the carpet :) Open one cap and start low, like half of its contents...if you don't feel it enough then next time try a whole cap.
 
18 was not too high for me. My first time with it was a supposed 20mg, but I didn't have a scale at the time so I'm not sure. It was stronger than the 18 mg experience in my opinion. I have done a little over 20... probably not past 23. It's not too wild. The body buzz can be a little weird at the higher doses. 18 mg will give you a full experience.

I have combined 18mg with LSD and that was wonderful also. It was a completely different experience than my 18mg experiment without the acid. Different set and settings though. both were cool times for sure.

I'd say go for 18mg. It should not be overly intense as long as you are aware of the effects.
 
OP, what drugs have you done before? if you have rolled on good mdma then you should have no problem understanding the flow of a moderate-dose 18mg 2c-i trip. the body feeling can be uncomfortable to some people but personally all the 2c-x i have tried so far (2c-e,t-7,i) have felt like my fingers and toes were about to jizz all over the carpet because the energy flowing through my veins just felt SO GOOD. if you can keep a positive atmosphere (breakbeats, flashing lights, and vick's vaporub = win) then then you will have no problem doing one whole capsule.
