A quick return to baseline or a dragged out fuzziness?
I like the chems that are quite intense but leave one quickly in a state of complete lucidity (able to go about one's work and other activities). I haven't exactly found the appropriate tryptamine for this (except DMT that one shines!).
Opinions in this regard about moxy?
Anymore reports about smoking the freebase? That sounds interesting.
For me, it's a smooth return to baseline, but not too quick. It lasts a good 6 hours, 3 or 4 at high levels.
You and I seem fundamentally different in some ways regarding desired psychedelic experiences, however. When I started tripping, I was just like you. Over the past year and a half, I have at times used psychedelics very often, probably shockingly so by most of your standards. Over this time I seem to developed a difference in my body and mind as to how I react to them. I very rarely, if ever, get a negative body load anymore, on anything I take (I dropped several substances, like 5-MeO-AMT, 5-MeO-DiPT, and a few others because they feel nasty to my body), on anything. I also can't recall the last time I had significant coming-up anxiety. I of course still very much love the dramatic, mind-shattering, terrifying doses of psychedelics, but most of the times I use them anymore it's more enhancement of some sort of activity or for enhancement of writing/introspection (to help me with my writing and artistic ideas). For that, I use substances that I feel are enhancing, mentally, physically, or both. I like those substances to last as long as possible, because frankly, it's nothing but pleasure for me when I use them right, intellectual and/or physical. That's the reason I was starting to use them so often, because there was nothing there to make me feel like I needed or wanted to take a break, and my personality type is moderately addictive.
These days, it's very easy to me to transfer between psychedelic mindstate and sobriety, because I don't usually feel like there's much of a difference except in extreme psychedelic states. I mean, hell, my two favorite enhancers overall are AMT and DOC, which both last a very long time indeed. I can interact with the world normally on both (at reasonable levels), or at least mostly normally with a bit of increased self-consciousness, but also with an impressively luibricated mind.
This is the reason I have slowed down considerably, because it was like, why was I taking them so often if it wasn't making a difference? Marijuana went that route years and years ago. It would be quite silly of me to put psychedelics into the same category!
