2c-c 50mg oral @ 10am empty stomach set: excited to be finally trying a 2C-X setting: a river The 50mg was splattered over every inch of the massive bag it came in, evidence of vacuum sealing. I thought for a second, then filled the bag with water and drank it. It is now 5 hours later and I am still recoiling in disgust at that foul bitter chemically taste. The comeup was disproportionately severe to the peak. Intense nausea, difficulty concentrating, some difficulty with distance, all occur 20 minutes after drinking. Fast comeup indeed for an oral substance. I come very close to vomiting a few times, with saliva pouring out of my mouth as i walk and little coughs of nausea. Headspace is dreamy, drowsy, and I'm loving everything. VERY serotonergic, this felt like Diet-MDMA. Then suddenly, about an hour after dosing, I felt like I had suddenly left a storm and was in pure clear skies. Exactly like the MDMA comeup, it just ended abruptly, and I was at the peak. The peak? What an odd thing. It's no thing at all. In fact, if I so much as walked it would disrupt the crystal waters of 2C-C. This is something you need to lie down, in silence, with eyes closed, to appreciate. It is a fine subtle wine of the senses. And yet, despite both the chemical sedation, and mental invitation to immobility, I felt a profound desire to do things, and so I took my shoes and socks off, put them in my knapsack, and waded into the river. It is a overcast, slightly rainy, but warm day, and the river is easily 5 degrees warmer than the air outside it at times. It also only goes up to my waist even in its deepest points here, and there are some areas where its difficult to walk because of the raging current and others which are clear and still. I am enjoying this profoundly. I walk up the river a bit, and notice a small offshoot of the river trickles up and twists behind the shore foliage. I decide to investigate this new area. The offshoot thins and thins until finally It is simply an extremely long, extremely curvy stream, which is the hottest spot in town if you live in this forest. I mean, you could hardly take a step without disturbing 50 tadpoles, 20 water insects, and a bird. I walk barefoot in the mud here, and my foot steps in tracks left by deer, raccoons, foxes, birds, and many other unidentified mammals. I am blown away by the exact reflection of this behaviour in myself and in the city i am in, which has built itself around this river, and which i am irresistably drawn to ever since i have discovered it a few weeks ago. I see a fossil of a sea shell on a large stone I step on. It could be 5 years old or 5 million years old. This is the land where all are welcome. As this is a feast to me, so to am I a feast to this, as many mosquitos partake of my hot, sweet flowing blood. I am this river experiencing itself, eating itself, enjoying itself. I come across a snail which is covered in dry sand and sticks. It appears lifeless, and is extremely dry, probably due to all these small items sticking to it and sucking away moisture. I pick up its corpse ,and wash it in the stream gently. I pick off its small killers, grains of sand that would be like solid razor bladed golfballs to me. Is it my imagination, or it is longer now than when i picked it up? It's moving! Two impossibly small eyes on the ends of awkward probing stalks emerge from its head, and begin exploring. I clean it some more . . . it seems to love the water intensly. I nurse it for a while and coo to it and then drop it in some bushes. Hopefully one day a being who is to me as I am to that snail will decide to not just pass me by when I am on the brink of death and require only a laughably small investment of time on its part to completely rejuvinate. Oneness in all . . . as you pray to your god, be sure to fulfill your duties to the creatures to whom you are god! Deep stuff, yet when I stop to ask "So what is 2C-C?" I am left wordless. It is a definite psychedelic state, yet not one which is inundating you, like MDMA, nor one in which the entire universe is partaking, like LSD or Mushrooms or DPT, but just one in which your mind and senses are slightly refined. It is the delicate cheese of psychedelics. Hardly a whiff of flavor to it but sometimes it's just the perfect thing, and I imagine the perfect thing for a great sandwhich. Because this chemical would be incredible to combine with pretty much ANYTHING. It is the softest textured layer to your world. Addition of Cannabis was inconclusive, as soon as I did it, I realized the two are actually somewhat similar, and so the effects melded and I wasn't sure what was pot and what was 2C-C, I just knew it was really, really fun. This is the PERFECT psychedelic to begin with. It is the kiddy pool psychedelic. There aren't even any visuals for me at this dose, none whatsoever. Truly a delicate one.
Nicely written man! I will agree, it is very MDMA like. But relaxing and not stimulating. You just feel so freaking perfect right! just wait until you test the grounds on a higher dose, the visuals will blow you away, their beauty is unrivaled. Im curious how 2C-C mixes with dissociatives since i know i had an amazing time on 300mg DXM and LSD, so i just dropped 330mg DXM about 1 1/2 hours ago and now just took 40 or 50mg 2C-C wonder how this is gonna turn out, im already feeling quite nice from the DXM
i know that dissociative + tryptamine can be REALLY intense. i look forward to 2c-c + ketamine in a few weeks!
I imagine it will be almost as fun as MDMA + K, which is so incredibly, profoundly beautiful, that i almost wept on the peak.
It didn't do this, I am like that. I included it in my report to give an idea of where my thoughts were, but I guess it was a poor literary instrument if you don't know me IRL, since my thoughts are like that when i'm sober. So, it's even subtler than that.
wow, this was over a year ago. too bad you didn't have the acid for that set/setting. but i'm sure you've made up for that. this trip reminds me a lot of when i took 3 hoffmans and went walking in a creek
I have since taken three shivas in an even better set/setting than this still don't dare to try and put pen to paper about it though. Feels wrong.
Poetic and elegant TR. i felt like i was there. i wouldn't mind trying 2CC someday. What a fascinating substance. i wonder if even higher doses could push it into the visual or if that would also push the nausea/bodyload.
2c-x's are great and i am glad to have tried most of them. and as for ketamine, by itself is the most beautiful thing but with mdma or lsd i would weep in joy too! I have tried 2ce+k and it was amazing!
I've heard 2c-e and 2c-c can be combined for great effect (visually). Just imagining it sounds wonderful, I may have to try it soon.
2c-c taken orally is very mild, nasally is by far the way to go - if you can withstand the burn for 20 mins the trip is absolutely beautiful. not as "beasty" as 4 aco, but damn can it get incredible (doing 35mg up the nose).
