I had another fantastic experience with this compound recently that both highlighted it's novel charms as well as it's intrinsic variability in response. Was left virtually speechless but not quite....
511mcg of the HCl was dissolved in .4ml of H2O and administered by intramuscular injection into my deltoid. After about a minute all the pores of my face simultaneously squeezed out a drop of sweat, resulting in the feeling of a sheet of perspiration being lifted off of me.....my thoughts started racing and my innervoice immediately referenced the phrase in PIHKAL (I think it is maybe in the 2C-E section...) where Sasha writes "Each person has his own brand of toxic psychosis...." This seemed particularly apt, as I hadn't experienced this sort of start/intensity before and I have had a stressful last few weeks and it was evident immediately that this trip was gonna be a ride and I was going to be shedding some baggage....
At 5 minutes the visuals were already kicking in to a degree surpassing any other of my 25C experiences. At ten minutes they were almost on par with DMT, but with the twist that seems unique to these compounds. I literally was hanging on to the edge of my seat, and was panicky for a minute about my certainty of the dosage. As psoodnym mentioned any questions about dosage will be a source of stress as the drug takes hold (when taken by a ROA with a rapid onset). I am very meticulous, have an extremely accurate and expensive analytical scale, and triple check everything but I still thought I had fucked up for a moment. .
The visual element was most stunning....My world became a snowglobe of "air castles" and I had the usual rippling, twisting, and morphing but a few elements were entirely new and signature to me....Several times the point from which I was observing all of this shifted and fragmented as well, resulting in a visual field more cubist than out-of body. It felt distinctly Michio Kaku-esque, as if the usual 3 dimensional field was just allowing for an x-y-z reference into the space-time dimension, allowing for entry into the dimensions hard enough for the human mind to understand that I'm not even gonna try to tack them to my limited powers of description...this is visual phenomenon mind you, not just cognitive....
As I will still climbing at around ten minutes I kept referencing a discussion I had just had with a fellow BLer where he mentioned his first experience with DOM being at a public swimming pool, and how twisted this was. It gave me knots trying to imagine this, and as I was barely clinging on and climbing I kept turning this over in my head until it became mantra-like..."well you could be on DOM at a public swimming pool in NYC...you have no idea what duress and pain is, you are gonna be fine...:D"
At around 15 minutes I was settled into the experience enough to relax and marvel, and marvel I did. This could indeed be a valuable tool for studying human perception.....although my visual field was virtually unrecognizable at times my identity and faculties remained largely intact....to hallucinate like this on any other 5HT2ergic one would be so awash in noise as to be drowning. I had some amazing aural hallucinations as well, with beautiful flanging and echoing. The sounds of ones refrigerator in a quiet apartment while tripping are often as inexplicable as the processes of which they speak, but this was something else entirely! There was a constant din, a buzzing of mosquitoes I recognized as the sound of the human race flitting about over the shit pile, and I was able to pull out individual hums and isolate them into synaesthetic air castles, almost like visual/aural glossolalia. At one point I walked over to the open sliding glass door and looked out onto the street as it shimmered with pulsing electricity and LED vortices. It was misting slightly and the fine rain drops caught my fascination for a minute. As i turned around and looked back into my living room these rain drops followed and I stood slack jawed, watching it rain inside my house. This was as real as day, which puzzled me to no end. I still had the classic psychedelic/mathematical hallucinations going on, but this rain was just cut and pasted, superimposed, in an entirely believable style. WoW.
By 45 minutes the experience subsided enough to be where I was expecting to be at initially. This entire experience was much shorter than normal, and much more intense. Besides being stunning eye candy it also was very therapeutic and insightful, and actually productive. By 3 hours I had only residual effects left, and was hungry and satisfied, having addressed many areas of psychological concern and my actions as of late. This compound really highlighted my internal moral compass, and allowed for a refreshingly critique free session of self analysis.
I am not sure if the brevity and out of the gate intensity were due to my set and setting, or if maybe the drug was just absorbed faster than normal, or if this is just another as of yet unexplained variation in the drugs effects. The chronology of this experience was more in line with my experiences in smoking it, or as I would imagine i.v. administration would be like. I still experienced some stomach "awareness"(rather than discomfort) on the come-up and I could see vomiting were I to up the dose too much more but as a whole there were far less physical side effects than with other PEAs and trypts. Were this my first experience with the drugs of this class I could have been easily overwhelmed and had an uncomfortable or even unpleasant experience. I can't urge enough to really exercise caution with these substances and take it slow. They seem very forgiving but I can see it turning sour with an overdose quite easily.
Very exciting stuff.
Cheers
