    no more hallucinogens for me

    I don't need to spend ten hours curled up in a ball using logic traps to keep me from slicing my face off again

    going solo for a first time psychedelic experience really was quite a bad idea

    it'd be much better to have tried it with an experienced sitter / trip partner

    oh well
    and also not doing one of the 2cs

    shrooms should be the first one you try imo

    eh, not all 2cs are created equal

    in fact, I'd say 2c-b or 2c-i is probably better than shrooms for baby's first psychedelic, in that they don't have much mental distortion at all

    2c-e, on the other hand...

    I am not really tripping at all. Boring evening.

    I just have an urge to listen to Arpeggi on repeat.

    It makes me wonder what the "seein' shit" drug is

    or actually, salvia
    that shit is intense

    Is acid anywhere near as mechanical as the 2cs, regarding the visuals?

    sort of, but it's fundamentally different

    intense acid visuals are full of fractals and weird geometry and crazy colors, but they don't feel as mechanical and synthetic as the 2c-xs, in my experience. a huge acid dose is the most overwhelming visual experience i've ever had

    totally unique though, i don't think anything is quite like lsd

    i'm glad i did that mostly when i was a teenager though i probably couldn't handle it as well now

    acid is neat but where i'm at very hard to find

    salvia is still legal, and seriously made me have a mind-altering experience for about 10 minutes. it felt like much longer, and i can remember is my vision splitting and then thinking "my mind is unraveling!" and suddenly i couldn't understand the people around me.

    Zolpidem (Ambien), dextromethorphan (DXM/cough syrup), high-dose diphenhydramine (Benadryl and relatives), and datura (don't ever do this) are all examples of drugs that induce hallucinations that can be indistinguishable from reality

    I guess you could throw DMT on there but it's sort of a different story

    I used to take ambiens for the PTSD night terrors and hypnagogia, back in the mid-2000's

    I would cook things in my sleep

    if you stay awake instead of actually letting it put you to sleep, you (apparently) see some shit

    okay I am trying to not grin like an insane person at this point, I think I am "on acid." Now to freak out my roommate...

    Re: Ambiens, it wasn't really seeing stuff if you tried to stay awake, it was more you'd start dreaming while awake. Eyes would be closed, seeing the dream, but still trying to interact with things or people around you.

    The sleep cooking stuff was like, take ambien, go to bed, wake up in the morning, "Why is the kitchen all fucked up?"

    Man, dang, I never got any visual hallucinations off of dex.

    I guess I am having fun? I am dancing around in my chair to Pretty Lights and I have a stomach ache. This is baby shit compared to a 200ug dose, though. Definitely gonna pick more up this week, definitely gonna do 300ug next.

    I took an ambian once when I was nervous in a hotel room in a strange city.

    I woke up in the shower.

    that was a general you, not a "munkus beaver specifically" you

    there's a whole bunch of firsthand reports of having hallucinations / waking-dream states on it scattered around the web, I'm sure you can find them if you care

    It's closer to sleep-walking than "seeing things" was my point

    Do you need one of these in your home to make you feel safer at night?

    Things that happened when I took ambien recreationally: an extended bizarre shopping spree culminating in three totoro themed wallets ???: repeatedly asking the same vaguely remembered question about what one of my friends was doing; taking my bra off and laying on the couch and zoning in and out of consciousness for a while; and at some point apparently I decided my tights had offended me and I very meticulously ripped them horizontally every half inch from mid thigh to right below the knee all the way across the front of my leg. I had somebody with me who was similarly completely out of it and she doesn't remember how we ended up buying totoro themed wallets either, but at least it wasn't a very expensive shopping spree.

    also yeah as someone that fucked with ambien a bit I can say firsthand that some of the hallucinatory shit people talk about is totally true

    it is always just really hard to remember what happened when you wake up

    Ritalin is making my life so much easier. It's just that the side effects are unfortunate.

    Gaining weight for the first time ever, and elevated blood pressure. Though, to be fair, I did just get a $450,000 bill in the mail.

    yeah, i once did like 950mg or something of dxm, well above the 4th plateau line or whatever, and i've never wanted to do it again. it was basically the most intense experience i've ever had.

    also @joshofalltrades i'm surprised you're gaining weight with a stimulant. that really sucks, man, i hope you find a way to mitigate that cost some because fuck american healthcare.

    It's not all bad, I weighed 147 lbs. last time I checked myself. My regular weight before was ~135 lbs., so I'm actually in a more healthy weight range!

    I have not yet tried acid, but I saw a giant fiery octopus in a campfire on shrooms once. It was wacky. Shrooms, as I think I've said, are my favorite drug because you only get them occasionally.

    mushrooms are too confusing. but all hallucinogens just sorta overwhelm me these days (or would, I guess, since i haven't taken any in ages 'cus of that)

    anyway, bout to smoke my last bowl of hash and get stupid high. last time i smoked some of it i looked in the mirror and my eyes were so red you could barely see any white.
