Like this person describing thier 2cb trip

+0:45 - Definite push. Euphoria building. 2CB does definitely have distinct euphoria and clarity that it provides. I usually feel a certain sense of peace, followed quickly by a muddle and mix of confusion and ideas. Very similar to 2ct7 in this case. A is feeling little, she unsure whether what she is feeling is just her or the substance. I am easily at a +2. +1:00 - Full body intoxication, I am losing a bit of coordination. Definite +3.

This is the most common rating scale that I assume was developed by Sasha Shulgin.

^according to alexander, sasha wrote it :P

but yeah, shulgins is the most common. there is also a 5-level one ive seen used for shrooms a few times.

EDIT: thats what I get for viewing links AFTER posting. the wiki link a few posts up is for the 5-level scale.

and if you want to discuss DXM experiences, there is yet a different scale particular to that substance, with four basic "plateaus," and an enigmatic and afaik slightly controversial fifth plateau
