Belladonna?

It's fully legal, does that mean i can get the seeds at a local plant store like steins? I'm extremely new to Belladonna, so help is appreciated.

Also, how is it ingested? leaves/seeds?

 

i have heard of people buying atropa plants from local stores, so you should check. as far as how to take it, look online... erowid is a good place to check.

but please don't do this. honestly you should just put belladonna, datura, all of these things out of your head and don't even give them a second thought.

 

May I ask why you say that?

You have to research drugs before you do them to see if you really have the balls. I find these plants fascinating to say the least.

 

From what i've read on erowid so far, it sounds HELLA fun. Any reasons that i shouldn't try it?

 

you must be reading different trip reports than me...

ive read about 15 of them all saying DONT FUCKING DO THIS SHIT!!! IT IS NOT FUN AND NOT A JOKE

 

Yeah I have read Alot of reports about it, and only about 1 in 40 say that it's worth doing ever.

 

yeah which reports are you reading OP?

i've seen very, very few reports on atropa plants which say "this was a good idea".

usually it's "i couldn't see for 3 days and i have a $5,000 hospital bill".

 

He never said that the reports actually say that, he's just saying by the way it sounds its really fun. That is understandable since you go to a different universe but the universe you go to is actually hell. Some people think that hell is fun, if you do than you might want to try it if you aren't worried about risking your life/health/sanity.

 

OH yeah my bad, i misread that.

but yeah even still, i've seen tons of reports that say it's pretty dysphoric and there's this hellish, empty feeling of just total lifelessness. like freshdacre said, it's literally a trip to hell. and yeah, it's even been thought by some to be capable of causing permanent insanity. not to mention the incredible variations in the content of the plant which make it impossible to judge a "safe" dose (lol and "safe" here is kind of ironic).

if that sounds fun, go for it OP...

 

be sure to tell us what happens after your trip.

i advise anyone on here to not aid in his obtaining of the plant - if the OP really wants to do this he will find where to get it and how to use it

 

I disagree. Although not a stated goal of HipForums, harm reduction should still be one of the goals of all drug communities/discussion groups. Harm will not be reduced if we promote ignorance; harm will be the result of ignorance.

That said, to the OP and the various others asking about this plant family: don't do it. I've read a lot of reports on erowid, seen a lot of discussions on hip and various other forums of the same nature, ALL of them free, open areas of unrestricted speech. All of them suggest to avoid this experience. I think that's saying something about how powerful these deleriants are.

Unless you happen to be planning a 3 day session with a shaman-sitter in the wilderness, skip it. There are plenty of other plants out there.

 

I am guessing in the past maybe some "witches", medicine men and druids in Europe had knowledge of how use this plant as an ally. Although there are interesting to me and i have met several deadly nightshade / belladonna growing wild i wouldn't consider using it for tryp as they gave me bad vibe, as does Datura. Not for me. I suggest you research it very thoroughly and hope you realise it is too dangerous.

However maybe you can perfect its preparation and usage and enjoy going a tryp to what other posters say is hell and it will be a powerful ally to you. Or maybe it will cause great harm.

if you survive that is.

 

interesting you say that about the vibe... when my friend brewed datura tea (thankfully he didn't drink enough and we soon had the sense to dump the rest), i remember being in the kitchen where he was brewing it, and i swear i felt the air get heavy and almost misty... there was a definite presence in the room, and oddly enough it was very warm and inviting, almost in a sensual, feminine way.

 

This stuff's a poison, not a drug.

 

actually id call it a poisonous drug.

 

some hippies made tea from the shit--it was growing by the train tracks--after seeing no one die and having conversations with no one there --i tried it---got me sick as fuck puking and having to drink water so i had something to puke---but between pukes had mad prophetic visions awesome for magic potent but poisenous obviuously i did too much--but 30 years later i still remember the magical visions--i think if you were trained in magic you could work some wild shit behind belladonna--------but as someone said--danger danger will robinson--gotta admit it was a trip i wouldnt wanna give up except for the fact i almost poisened myself---fucked with my vision for a few days after as well
