Research/alternative crap I've tried with summarized commentary
5-MeO-DiPT - second rate replacement for LSD
AMT - The 3 hour wait before you start peaking is annoying, weird feeling, nice hallucinations, brutal come down. Not worth it. Plus a container I had AMT capsules in over a year ago STILL reaks of the nasty smell. It would not suprise me to learn that this stuff causes brain damage and god knows what else.
5-MeO-DMT - Not recreational, but absolutely mind blowing experiences and the only research chemical with a clean high.
2C-T-2 - Oral doses are not worth it. Snorting below 10mgs gives a truly cosmic experience. However it also comes with a truly hardcore body load and is probably somewhat poisonous.
Salvia - something like a smokable cross between ketamine and ether. Only nerds and grungies enjoy this stuff.
Amanita muscaria - So what if the Siberians do it? They're stupid and so am I for having been suckered into trying this.
Anadenthera columbrina and peregrina seeds - I don't know what the natives in South America do, but I couldn't get any worthwhile effects.
BZP + TFMPP - The first few hours actually aren't that bad, the next 10-14 hours after that are. It's not ecstasy and it's probably going to cause some brain damage.
In short, with the exception of 5-MeO-DMT, I believe all of the above mentioned are just more proof that Alexander Shulgin is a quack. Drugs shouldn't be so hard on your body to cause such enormous discomfort and most of them can't be good for you. If you're looking for some new answer or the next level, none of this shit is the way to go. Nobody bothered scheduling this stuff because they didn't think people would be willing to put up with the negative side effects just to get high. Well, people proved themselves idiots with the exploding popularity of this stuff. I figured there had to be something to it, I figured wrong.
