was saturday this past weekend... i weighed 6.0 mg, tossed it into my mouth and chased it down with some water. i weighed out some doses ranging from 8.5 mg to 22 mg. 14 doses in total, using about half of the 500 mg. then i ate the "scraps" - a very small amount, a couple mgs at most. ~45 minutes after my first "dose" - i took another 5.something milligrams. so in total, 12-14 mgs. then i headed back home (i borrow a scale away from home) my gf and i were going to the mall. i needed new sneakers, and she just wanted to go. so i made her drive, and on the way she had a cig. i don't smoke and the smoke was making me ill. she didn't know i was tripping btw, we'll get to that later... we get to the mall, split up to go shopping, and i was in the shoe store, TRIPPING. i just walked around the isles, looked at shoes, and felt kinda paranoid (at first). the workers asked me if i needed help a few times, i said i was good, tried on some shoes....texted a friend, went to a new store. i swear the dude here did a line of coke when he went in the back to get my shoes. and since he was being pretty obvious about it (mumbling "that's some good, son" or something, and sniffing a lot and touching his nose), i felt like i could let loose a little. at least not hide my goofy grin this store had some nice music and not too many people, so i made myself (semi) comfortable and chilled on a bench for a bit. mostly i didn't like the shoes, or they didn't have my size. third store i found some though. so i bought my sneakers on 2ce. then i met back up with the gf and we started heading home. on the way it started to POUR. and i probably started to peak on my low dose, and i MUST agree with someone who said on here, that 2ce is perfectly suited to a daytime rainstorm. it was awesome. my gf was getting mad at it, cuz we had plans for a walk in the park, but i was loving the rain. each rain drop was like a firework on the windshield. i could see the fractals at the edge of them- amazing! then it started to really fucking POUR - like buckets. i think i said "what is this a tornado? or i guess it would be a hurricane" (b/c of the water). but there actually was a tornado! on the other side of town that day - i'm in NY state, a tornado happened when i happened to trip, and i called it we got home, she cooked eggplant parm, we watched Into the Wild (great imagery), and ate the eggplant (so good). my closed eye visuals, as always with 2ce, were AMINZINGLY complex and beautiful. square and circular grids... one in particular that i recall - you know when you change the background color, and go to custom color, it shows the grid of colors? if you know what i mean, it was kinda like that. a rainbow grid, but it was almost endless, and i was shifting through all the colors i've ever seen and more. after the movie, i had the urge to go outside on a walk. it was about 11 at night, and this made my gf suspicious. "you didn't take that drug did you?" "yea" PART II she doesn't like that i do 2ce AT ALL. so we had a bit of an argument, blah blah blah, and i went on my walk. like i said above, it had just rained, so it was a cool, glistening summer night. i walked out into the brick village atmosphere of my apartment complex, and started toward the park a block away. i scurried into the park quick, cuz i don't know if you're supposed to be there after dusk. so i walked the blacktop path though the darkness and the plant life. there are several types of flower bushes and trees, i shook water into my mouth from some leaves, and promptly spit it out (poisonous?!) the sky was a great shade of dark blue, the trees, the few lights in the park and the somewhat distant ones of the city - it all looked great. then i walked up to the water reservoir where i guess there is a fountain, that was never on before. i got a drink of water from the drinking fountain (different fountain) and walked home. then i was home. smoked a bong, got on the computer, ate some food. ice cream was too sugary. water tasted bad. i felt pretty ill. my bladder? kidneys? intestines? stomach? had a sharp pain. my chest or heart? felt worn out, and my lungs too. to be fair, i kinda have a cold, so it wasn't the best time to be doing 2ce, but i think part of it is still attributed to the drug. i also got my classic morning (and day) after headache. took one ibuprofen, didn't help, but it wasn't that bad - i could have taken more advil. but these issues - real or imagined, physical or psychosomatic - lead to anxiety and made it tough to sleep. overall the trip was still great, but i really could do without the after effects. i have about 29 doses left...
Sounds like you had a pretty good time. I'd recommend trying some higher doses at some point, it gets amazing. I've railed 20mg of the stuff within a few hours before, although I'm not sure how successful a shopping trip would have been, haha.
I always find society gets really strange on 2ce. Like when I took some 2ce at an airport, I could swear this dude sitting across from me kept flipping me off, haha. Sounds like a good time though
i've tried 2ce up to about 20mg orally. this dose was testing out a new batch. (maybe it's more potent that my 1st one?) i was gonna just take 6 or 8mg to see what that did (the lowest i've ever taken was 12mg), but i decided, fuck it, take 12. i was staying low b/c i knew the setting wasn't gonna be the best. i'll probably take 16 mg next time. tolerance question? i should be fine to take 30 mg 2cb this saturday right? exactly one week later. will there still be a small amount of tolerance? i'd think it'd be mostly gone, but some sticks around for awhile. i'll prob finish the post tonight. btw, i submitted my first ever 2ce trip report with 12 mg to erowid the other day.
Excellent TR. Good thing you weren't driving! lol (good call) And yeah, I agree with Smitty, the last part was definitely classic. haha
That sounds like a pretty cool trip. I saw the first part last night or early this morning, but wanted to wait until the rest of it was posted to respond. lol I've never gotten those weird after-effects, oddly. At least, not that I noticed. Somethine happened a few times that made me a little nervous though; it felt like my central nervous system was beginning to seize up toward the end of the trip. Like my blood felt like it stopped circulating and my heart actually felt like it stopped, and even sounded like it stopped. My body sounded like a machine that was powering down. It was pretty trippy.
One week later should be enough time for your tolerance to go down. I've done 2ce in week intervals without noticing any significant loss due to tolerance. I don't really mind the mindfuck while in public. Then again, I never get mindfuck that's too severe at 20-25mg doses.
Tolerance doesn't seem to be much an issue with 2c-e. I tripped 30mgs (setting fucked up, ended up being a shitty trip because of it) and 2 days later had a blast with 60mg. Then again, I did double my dose haha. Oh ya, great report porkstock. Funny you bought shoes and were at the mall on it, post pics of them!
nice report pork and you got some nice shoes too. I love tripping outside and especially in the warm summer rain. sorry your gf hates you eating 2ce, is she just against drugs in general? lol that could never work in my relationships.
yea she's just against drugs in general. at least any that i enjoy. she doesn't say much about pot though
