PCP is very close to its "friends" 3-MeO-PCP and 3-MeO-PCE, IME. Most of the negative stories and hype about it comes from people either ODing on it or being given it unknowingly. If you are someone who likes dissociatives like ketamine, DXM, etc then you would also like PCP.
I messed around with it for a little while, I had the stuff synthesized and tested by a trusted third party and usually took it by plugging but occasionally would put the freebase in an ether solution on a cigarette or joint and smoke it. My friend would IV it or IM it too. The BA is very high through almost all routes, duration about 4-6 hours peak effects with an afterglow lasting another 12+hours. Especially with higher doses, a dose of 200mg will produce effects lasting almost 2 whole days.
Low doses (1-5mg) are euphoric and almost relaxing, good painkiller, maybe as inebriating as a beer or two.
Moderate doses (5-25mg) give you more ataxia, loss of contact with the body, feeling of "floating", typically nausea or panic will set in if you are not prepared for it, otherwise euphoria. Can start to effect your memory at this dose. Sometimes CEVs will happen at this stage.
Higher doses (25-50mg) lead to very bizzare perceptual distortions, sometimes OEV, flat affect, you become less articulate, "tunnel vision", feeling as if you were in a dream. Similar to a "K-hole" but you are more able to move, though you may not be coordinated and may have a very strange gait.
Ridiculous doses (100mg+) - you are a walking zombie effectively, the lights are off and nobody's home but the engine is still in gear & running, there is a good chance you will either be immobilized, staring into space doing nothing (if you're lucky), or lapse into a fugue state where you do ridiculous shit (if you're not lucky - this is where you get videos of people talking in tongues, lurching around and picking fights with mailboxes, or emptying someone's fridge by fastball-pitching the condiments and vegetables at the ceiling, etc)
Now, I like PCP to this day, but I feel I must tell you there are risks that are very serious when it comes to using it. I've been arrested once and hospitalized twice (both due to mental health concerns, not due to health) due to reckless overuse of PCP (or 3-MeO-PCP). Pro tip: Don't interact with cops if you're high on a dissociative, and don't carry any dissociatives with you. So don't believe you're invincible, if you use high doses of anything related to PCP you will eventually get unlucky and go fugue-state, it's a gamble then what will happen - and a reason to have a trip sitter on a high dose trip if you choose to do that. At least a CT I got showed my brain isn't swiss cheese yet, and given I can write essays like this on demand, I think I got lucky when it comes to dissociatives cooking people's brains.
Oh, it mixes good with: opioids (VERY good painkiller combination), LSD, THC, MDMA.
Bad combinations: Alcohol, any benzodiazepine, methamphetamine, cocaine.
And yes, it's very funny watching the doctors' eyes go pop when they read the drug test results and it says Positive for PCP.
