This post is a warning for anybody who wants to be reckless or push the dose of this chemical, or report "underwhelming results". So 3 days ago I took what was supposedly a 17 mg trip (I think my scale may have underweighed by several mgs) and I'm in the middle of writing a report for it, but for right now I want to mention some VERY IMPORTANT information for somebody considering a high dose of this material.
Now I had one trip on 2c-p prior to this experience, at a similar dose (14 mg). The effects had been overwhelming, but in a good way. Intense visuals, typical phenethylamine analytical head space, a euphoric push, and no nausea! Now there had been several times during this trip that I had been on the verge of loosing it to a bad trip due to its intensity, but in the end I was easily able to submit when the time came and I had enjoyed most of the 17 hours of my trip. I figured I had finally found a viable replacement for 2c-e, which I have never gone back to after my first 7-8 trials consistently produced too much nausea and too weird of a head space and body high to make the visual display or the trip itself “worth it”.
So, typical short sighted and self-control-less me, decides to up the dose, to see how far this chemical could really take me. If I had not BEEN A FUCKING IDIOT, I would have played around with lower and moderate doses, and realized that probably even 8-10 mg or less is enough to produce a solid 12 hour trip, that adding even 1 or 2 mg can prolong the effects several hours and add several layers of intensity, that my AMW Gemini-20 mg scale is simply not accurate enough for compounds that require doses this small, and that just because you see somebody on the internet claim 30 mg of a certain compound was underwhelming to them, it doesn't mean that that will apply for you, or that that person may have been lying all along to begin with...
onto the show
Starting at three hours in there was a serious upset in my breathing, for starters. I simply could not get enough air. Very shallow breathing, and I could not control it. It was VERY scary. Also my heart was pounding like it was on its last legs. My heart felt worse then any other time in my life, worse then the most serious mdma binges I've gone on. It seriously felt like it could give out at any second, and every few minutes a new fucking wave of effects would come on, making my heart pound harder and my breathing more shallow each time. I am not playing around I know what limits feel like in your body and by taking this chemical, at least at this dose, I feel like I violated all of them. I was seriously close to calling an ambulance, I felt so poisoned.
Around t05:00 to t08:00 I was fully on the verge of an out-of-body experience. Nothing could be done accept constantly rolling my head so the visuals didn't get to intense. I urinated somewhat frequently, which I liked, because it told me despite how extremely toxic I felt my body was still functioning somewhat normally. But lets be clear, the toxic effects were terrifying. Sharp pains where I imagine important organs are located continued shooting throughout my body at random. My heart seriously was in pain it had been put through so much work. I kept telling myself just hold out, don't give up, but as the trip continued getting stronger and stronger I became more and more pessimistic. My head heart, every organ in my body ached, this disgusting head high shared my thoughts..
I was also seriously overheated, I had to have a fan on full blast on me for the first 12 hours of the trip, and my head felt like it was burning the whole time which I am told indicates serious neurotxoicity.
Now for my troubles I was granted the most beautiful, intense phenethylamine visuals which I will attempt to explain now...
The 2c-p was literally creating a kaleidoscope where ever I looked. It was not breathing objects, or shifting carpet, or even amazing stacked abstract art-like visuals like 2c-e. When I closed my eyes (which I could not do for long before the intensity of the visuals would become uncomfortable) a literal kaleidoscope, which appeared to be built out of constantly moving beams of light, which seem to me to be not unrelated from eye floaters, though they are definitely two different phenomenon, filled my vision. Now with open eyes the kaleidoscope would only completely over take my vision when I allowed it, however I had to continue to shift my eyes in order to prevent that from happening. Not to mention these beams of light, whatever they were doing or what they are, would cause distortions of what I was looking at more enormous then even 5 grams of mushrooms. My window may appear to take up the whole wall one second, then would appear to be several inches the next. Also the afterimage were so distinct I could look at the visualizer on my computer screen and then at my ceiling, and both screens (both the real and the after image) would continue playing the visualizer, until the after image eventually disappeared maybe upwards of 20 seconds later.
Translucent floating beams or lines of lights seemingly made out of or at least corresponding with tracers and afterimages, while at the same time belonging to a single piece of abstract psychedelic art that was this constantly changing, arcing living kaleidoscope composed of these constantly moving, shifting beams of light that warp, bend, distort and otherwise make complete soup of anywhere I look if I concentrate my vision for longer then a second, and it kept getting stronger and stronger by the second.
At 5 hours in the visuals began changing their nature some what, adding additional abstract kaleidoscopes on the one already in my eyes, so that I had two, three or more separate layers of visuals, each playing with itself, each making each other stronger and seemingly building a single amazing piece of art. Afterimages peak when a new wave comes on and at times I am petrified the visual display is so amazing. At one point my roof begins collapsing on itself, sliding off into eternity, then as I look down towards eternity and three separate roofs fill my eyes, each one on top of the other.
A reoccurring thought was that this was not a bad trip, but just uncomfortably overwhelming.
At a certain point during one of the last major peaks came the visuals again changed their game, my roof slid open, and not entities, but certainly the foundation of what would be an out of body experience took hold. The beams of light began to create multidimensional geometric figures again different to the kaleidoscopes, which were also still present, in my ceiling. Three of these things, each side by side and connected loosely by beams of light take over my entire field of vison.
In conclusion:
The whole trip lasted for 36 hours until I went to bed on the second day (I only managed 3 hours of sleep inbetween this and my initial dose) and even today I still feel somewhat off and still have some minor visual activity. The peak last for 8 hours when it eventually stopped building, then at it SLOWLY began winding off. By 18 hours I was still at a solid plus 3, was at a plus two untill 30 hours and was at a plus one with closed eye visuals still present at 36 hours.
Now as I said earier none of the trip was necassarily bad, but just uncomfterably overwhelming, and the extremely toxic feeling side effects have made it official in my mind that 2c-p should not be taken at any dose past 12 mg, though I doubt I'll ever take this ride again. Still though, I will never forget the lightshow I was granted, and if anybody thinks risking there well being is worth this kind of trip, just be prepared for a solid 2-3 day trip, because I had it in my mind I was gonna be down at 20 hours
