The other night I snorted 30mg of 2C-E and needless to say it was the craziest psychedelic experience I have ever had (that I will not attempt again).. within the first 5 minutes of going up the nose (A good level 4 at first and hit a level 5 for about a good half hour [could not even make touch with visual reality]). I also felt as soon as I snorted it, like I was knocked off my coordinational axis. I walked straight but I felt like I was tilted almost a full 180 degrees to the right. And also not to forget the drip was definitely there and AWFUL (for a good half hour). Before I attempted taking such a high amount, I would usually snort a little water or blow my nose to avoid the 'burn', but the drip seems like a whole new story. It totally ruined the intensity at first, but the trip itsself was just as intense for the first 3 hours. Is there any way to make sure it goes all up the nose and doesn't linger? And does it make any difference that I probably have a lot more muckous/phlegm than normal because of this sinus infection / cold I've had for some time now? Thanks. Also the trip was horrible and scary for the most part, I would and would not recommend it. (I wanted it to end as soon as it started, was not ready for that kind of intensity, nor expected it from 2C-E) Some people can keep themself stables better than others, try it if you want... I can almost promise it knocks all the storys you've read of a crazy trip out the water. There was weed to smoke but I wouldn't even dare, the come down was intense and when the morphing stopped, my perception was altered for an additional 6-10 hours. Peoples head would bloop like a bubble and then downsize again, or any other part of their body would if I looked at it (note I mention this was an after-trip-effect). Almost like it was caving in and losing it's third dimension. I was too gone mentally during the trip to remember any details, I'm glad I was able to ride it out.
the drip is 10 times worse then the burn. i can handle the burn cause it goes away fairly quickly, but the drip lingers. the only way ive found to avoid the drip is just rail the 2c-e like its coke.
using a half cut straw is the way i do it too. just stick the straw pretty far up your nose and snort like you want the powder to hit your brain. also, a good way to clean out you nose before snorting is using a Q-tip
the drip is the right of passage for railing anything, a stern reminder that what you are doing is polluting your natural body chemistry with intoxicants. Me personally I take the drip as a sign of the good things to come or it can be seen as the welcome wagon to tripsville. IMHO there should be a balancing factor, mushrooms can taste like shit, literally, but I have trained myself to embrace that negative flavor receptor reaction as the dinner bell for psychedelic dining...the collective of nauts that trip together on a regular basis routinely marvel at my uncanny ability to undergo extreme duress in the name of the almighty experience..cactus tea anyone? hot sauce or red chili flakes will get the sinuses moving and clear the airspace for the incoming airborne delectibles..just a few flakes or a dab or two of hot sauce is enough, but a healthy meal of the Thai variety can be much more pleasureable
And I love hot peppers too. I would of never thought of that. However as I said (maybe not in this exact way), by the time it was up the nose my mind was out the door.. Except for the reality of that drip.. It sucked very much, but I suppose it is the Right of Passage in a way. But then again what exactly would be the Right of Passage eating the stuff? Or do we get to go around that since we have to double our dose? THanks for the advice
