I got sold some 'proper old-school kez' a few months back. It was blackout ket and my mate totally fucked me over. He's a kethead but I think he, like many others, simply became addicted to the same lifeless blackout junk. I like to liken it to flat coca cola.
The other week however, I took some and went for a walk through a park in Newcastle. I wasn't enjoying it too much, but it was getting dark and I was struggling with some troubling ex-gf/girl you madly love type news. So basically my mind state was pretty dark anyway, influencing the ket and making me assume tiletamine.
When I was home though, I was lying in bed with my eyes shut, trying to sleep, when my vision suddenly started sliding to the side and I saw some weird lights that were moving around. I thought to myself "fucking hell, felt a bit like ketamine that" (having forgotten I'd taken any at all). Next thing you know, I'm sliding again, and seeing weird (uninteractive/benign) figures as a I glide past them. There was a moment of confusion, followed by a kind of eurika moment as I remembered that not only had I earlier sniffed a gram (in bumps) of something labelled as and vaguely resembling ketamine, but that this was in fact actual certified fucking ketamine!
I immediately sniffed the rest and proceeded to slide around my eyelids watching my favourite kind of film. The ones ketamine allows you to flow through when you close your eyes, when it's not some sort of polluted, junk, analogue.
I haven't been able to do this for a very, very long time and it was such a welcoming homely experience.
It wasn't as pure as the olden days, but this is exactly the kind of ketamine I was getting previous to the 2008 drought. I'm not sure what changed since then, but I rarely experienced the same k-holes ever since the disappearance of old school bottled/liquid ketamine which people used to cook up/dry out. This is the same variety (isomer/content wise).
Does anybody know what kind of ketamine it was before 2008 when the bottles were widely available? Was it racemic, and then after 2008 replaced by stereo isomer? If so, then racemic is my true love. Beautiful chemical, and a great friend.
