I don’t typically feel compelled to add commentary on substances as well-explored as this one, but I tried it for the first time this week and was VERY impressed.
I intended to dose in order to view the lunar eclipse and figured I’d give ETH-LAD a go. 3 hours prior to dosing I took 900mg of phenibut, followed by another 300mg just prior to dosing 150ug of ETH-LAD at midnight. First alerts were at 40 minutes for me, developing into a general hilarity, just rampant giggling. No body load whatsoever, no nausea. Continued laughing hysterically for most of the next several hours, also enjoyed a small amount of nitrous along with it. Visuals were definitely present but not exceptionally strong.
Four hours after dosing (4am), I walked a mile to the lake shore where I could view the eclipse as its penumbral phase began. Sat and watched it until it set on the horizon, then walked back through the park observing the fish spawning and the newly hatched ducks & geese.
By 6 hours I was only experiencing light tracers and the slightest color enhancement.
Just an overwhelmingly positive experience with no negatives; perhaps one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I truly wish I had stocked up on more of this when it was easily available to me.
One curious aspect though - My partner also had 150ug and was experiencing only threshold effects at +2 hours, so she had another 50ug at that point, which helped but wasn’t quite enough for her tastes (no meds which would dampen the experience, she just seems a bit of a hardhead). She might want a full 200ug at once next time. I might’ve encouraged a booster dose sooner but she has a history of delayed reactions (almost 2 hours for first alerts with 4-AcO-DMT on an empty stomach, almost 3 hours for 1P-LSD, for example). Her residual visuals persisted just slightly longer than mine. Nonetheless, the additional 50 mics seemed to push her along to a more satisfying state and she was just as enamored with the substance as I was by the time it was said and done.
In short, phenomenal substance. I’d definitely snag a couple hundred tabs of this for the collection if the opportunity presents itself again.
