just a question for you 2c-e users...do you prefer to smoke or not to smoke pot while experimenting with 2c-e? and what are your reasons?
Yes, but the I smoke weed like some people smoke cigarrettes so I'm not sure it's anything more than habit,
I used to smoke weed daily for years. Then I quit for several years. Now whenever I smoke, it makes me feel extremely anxious and paranoid. So I don't smoke anymore. That anxiety/paranoia I feel is amplified 10 fold while tripping, so no, I don't smoke pot while tripping (anymore). Smoking while tripping can very easily lead to a full blown freak out for me (bad trip).
I like smoking weed during a 2ce comedown, but not before or during the peak. In my experience, 2ce seems to make weed smoke feel very harsh, kinda like I'd imagine it would feel like to inhale sandpaper, which can be a bit too much for me during a 2ce peak. I just don't smoke before the peak because I always feel kinda nauseous during lift off and I'll puke if I cough. lol
From everything I've heard, it'll help with the nausea. Some say it helps immensely. I have no personal experience to back up that claim, but I've heard it mentioned enough times to believe that it must actually work. You can also try taking some Dimenhydrinate (Dramamine - they are motion sickness pills that can also help with nausea) before you dose to help.Or you can even try a dose of Benadryl, it'll help with the nausea in a similar fashion as the Dramamine. I've never tried either method... the nausea has never really been a very bad problem for me with 2c-e, unless I'm taking large doses... then I just deal with the nausea and accept it as part of the experience.
most people say marijuana helps nausea. i find this to be untrue and have known others who are similar to me in this respect. it is its most common medical use, though, so i recommend trying it. i liked smoking when i was on 2C-E. almost every psychedelic agrees with cannabis, in my experience. if you are having real trouble with nausea, and cannabis doesnt help, then i can't stress enough how well ginger helps with all manner of stomach upset. TRY GINGER! dramamine supposedly works, but it also has a druggy sedative side effect. i would use this as an absolute last resort, even if the 2C-E stimulation will cancel it out. first try cannabis, then cannabis and/or ginger, as a last resort try dramamine
AH! I new I forgot something. The ginger! Yes, thank you nesta you're absolutely right. Ginger works wonders.
On a side note: does anyone else find that cigarettes taste absolutely AWFUL when coming down from a 2C-E trip? Whenever I have a cigarette, I find myself questioning why I enjoy this horrible habit in my daily life...its almost as if the cigs taste so "unnatural" compared to 2C-E. I know that doesn't make much sense, but most of my mates have agreed with this as well..... Personally I don't like smoking pot during 2C-E trips, but then again I don't enjoy pot on any occasion really.
The smell of marijuana makes me gag on 2C-E not to mention kinda feels like it's adding inner pressure to my head during the trip. so if you ask me, :ack2:
