So, what do you like more? Heavy psyches like Shrooms, LSD, 2C-E, something that completely manifests your mind, or candy psych, like 2C-B, 2C-I, MDA...? Me personally, likes more candy psychedelics, 2C-I was very nice, and I really don't like 2C-E, but would be willing to try mushrooms or LSD.
Fuck heavy shit man. Its a must a few times, but the candy shit is the way to go. I wouldn't consider lsd to be too heavy though. I dunno, DMT, DPT and 2c-e are some heavy ones to me. acid and shrooms can be heavy in bigger doses... Either way, having friends around being fucked up is fun for sure. It kinda seems like you asked if you prefer playing or learning. Weird question, both are necessary but which is more fun? Everyone needs to quit trying to be so hard core...
IMO they both have their place and time. Heavy psychs really interest me, and occasionally I get a craving for going to a deep place, and tripping really, really hard. That's more of a solo/at home thing for me, though. Candy psychs are more suited to shows and such. I would never find myself doing a high dose of DPT at a show. However a mid-range dose of 2c-e at a show is something I could look into. I think this argument also has some relevance to how people react to drugs; some drugs seem to hit different people much harder, and reactions can always differ.
i like to do the heavy psychedellics infrequently, but the candy psychedelics are nice more often. there's nothing more fun than the milder 2c-x compounds [b, c, and i], but nothing quite like a good ol' fashion tryptamine journey! i like to take a good dose of mushrooms at least once or twice a year [which i find to be extremely profound] and LSD even less frequently [though i think i'll give it AT LEAST a year after my last LSD experience] for me, 4-aco-dmt is somehow candy and heavy...i've taken that quite a few times, and felt no ill effects from it, but i thought i should cut back while i'm ahead. i've been known to go on all out ketamine binges...but i'm going to keep that minimal for a while as well. MDx compounds are something i can't justify using often at all, so it'll be a while before i do any of them...i'll probably wait until festival season to roll on anything again...and even then it'll either be methylone, or a low dose of molly. now that i think about it, i think i'll draw out this break i've been on another few months [with the exception of a dose of 2c-i as soon as that comes in...gotta test it before i give it to my friend..prolly only like 12mg to make sure it's not flour], because i really have tripped more this year than is really necessary. i don't regret 90% of the trips i've embarked upon, but a break never hurt anybody. i've even cut back on smoking pot [just haven't enjoyed it as much]. i'll stay in business, and my stash for next summer should be epic! i'd love to try to combine 4-aco-dmt and 2c-b at a festival as soon as they start again [something like 20mg of 4-aco-dmt nasal, then an hour later dosing 25mg of 2c-b oral] but for the record, sometimes i find the candy psychedelics to be extremely profound; 2c-x compounds tend to help me to appreciate the world around me like nothing else can...which is something else i used to struggle with a lot.
I like to experiment with all types of psychedelics, and with different combinations of pcychedelics.
Last time I tripped on a heroic dose of shrooms (5g) I decided to take a few tokes of DMT. Pretty crazy I managed to get 2 and a half tokes in before dropping the pipe and being gifted by the machine elves with life, death, and re-birth, and then coming down to be greeted by complete psilocybin-induced ego dissolution. I was pretty much rendered incapacitated for the next few hours til the shrooms started to wear off. I think the shrooms prolonged the DMT experience by at least an extra 15 mins but it's hard to say on such a high dose.
i'm surprised nobody has mentioned amt yet...you were all raving about it last month, and i'm pretty sure it's FAR into candy.
actually aMT is like MDMA; easy to use in both situations. Even a low dose amt can be very profound, if you are looking for that if you're just looking for a good time then it's good for that too.
