Belladonna as a drug is highly dangerous and unpredictable, you do know that right? However if your determined to try it anyway i'll tell you what i know: first things first the chemicals in atropa belladonna that you have to be worried about are the tropanes and the traces of these chemicals varied in batchs or even individual plants so different plants could be stronger than ones you've taken before. the root which is harvested in autumn is the strongest part of the plant and best left well alone(death could occur through complications at as little as 1 gram). The leaves have the second lowest amount of tropanes and should be taken at the amount of one leave boiled into a tea for about half an hour will be more than enough for one person BUT drink it slowly and stop half way down the cup for about half an hour to allow your body to accustomise to the chemicals within the plant. Another warning i'm afraid:if your boiling a dose for more than one person don't put everyones dose in one pot and boil together and split as the dose's be uneven and you'll be making a trip to the hospital....or the morgue!. The flower i think is the best part of the plant as it's got the most regulated amount of tropanes one/two flowers. Make sure you have a babysitter (someone not on strong drugs who can look after you) who can stop you from wandering outside and away or hurting yourself or take you to the hospital). tell your babysitter how much you have taken and keep a sample of the plant so the hospital can identify it if the worst happens. Thats all just be careful. for more info check out www.erowid.com.
belladonna is a very dangerous herb! but even when used in proper dosage, according to reports I've read, it doesn't sound like fun at all! one report that I recall talked about seeing severed limbs and lots of blood in a bathtub, seeing dead people etc. no thanks!
About 33 years ago I was with some friends who got some and we all ate a bit...don't remember how much, although the package said something about smoking it. It was sold as an asthma supressent I think (hard to remember)..under the name of "asthmadore" again I think.But i do remember its active ingredient was Belladonna. I remember very few events of the evening but one thing I do remember is sitting on the floor and looking up at my friend Yacky, he was sitting on the couch and I saw blood pouring out of his eyes, I kept yelling at him that he was going to bleed to death....I also remember going outside and wanting to walk in the street, but there were people there, looking out for us and they got me back in the house.....thats all I remember. I would forget this stuff and go smoke some weed.
