Howdy do feller trippers. I wanted something to help me keep up with a few of my friends that are rolling for the first time. Originally I planned to take some Adderall for energy, but a friend of mine called me to tell me he was sending some 2C-I my way. He described it as 'a mix of LSD and MDMA, but not as good' which would be perfect for me on that night. I've read up on my fair share of erowid trip reports but they seem a bit lacking. Could anyone please help me out with some info on it? My planned dose was 5mg parachuted and two 2-3mg key bumps every ~2 hours.
Take 15-20 mgs, I dosed 22 mgs and 2 females did too who had no experience with the drug at Shpongle. You will only need 1 oral dose it lasts about 6 hours then another couple hours before back to baseline. In the club setting, the visuals did not stand out all that much and you may feel 'heavy' compared to MDMA. Music sounds great though, it pulsed through me and colors are really bright. It can make you really horny and a bit more confused I'd say than MDMA, but not scared. Dancing feels really sharp and mechanical, not as fluid as MDMA and LSD. Outside the club, I really enjoy it during the day, objects have really good color enhancement and 'shading' and the shading can be experienced at night as well though its slightly less prominent. Upbeat electronic music sounds amazing on it in particular with eyes closed. Empathetic feelings/thoughts come and go and so does nausea/tension. Keep an advil on hand too because I got a headache coming down the first time, which is an often reported side effect. You may feel slightly off the 'wavelength' of the people rolling btw. Definitely dose at least 15 mgs oral though its a really easy and slow come up.
I second taking at least 15mg oral, 20 or 25 ideally. Take one initial dose and don't redose. The comeup is slow so don't be impatient and try to redose before it hits. I made that mistake once when I was new to the scene. Don't expect to even feel a subtle alert before the 45 minute mark. 2c-i is notorious for nausea but I swear by crystallized ginger, just eat a few pieces right after dosing and it will keep the nausea at bay. Expect jaw clenching and general muscle tension. GB is right - movement feels quite rigid or robotic, but not unpleasant. Do not ignore your body on this one, if you feel thirsty drink plenty of water. I don't know if it's only me but I find 2c-x's to be very dehydrating, even when I'm not moving around much. And lastly, smoke some weed toward the peak and during the comedown if you get a chance. Weed and PEAs have a fantastic orgasmic syngergy! Why did you decide on 2c-i over MDMA with the rest of your friends?
The breaks between my rolls got shorter and shorter so I wanted to keep it at bay for a little while. Anyway, thanks for the info. I'll probably dose 20mg then and give 10mg to a friend.
Recently, yes. I'll tell you what, I hated it for the looooooongest time. DnB + Downsyndrome = Dubstep
I think giving 10mg to a friend would be a waste. 10mg of 2ci would only tease me and make me angry. lol
2C-I was amazing. Lucy and molly didn't work for the girl so she parachuted one of the bags of molly we had ~200mg. ~20 minutes later she was enjoying lightshows way to much, I asked her if it had kicked in and just got a big grin in return.:2thumbsup:
My first experience with an RC was 12mg 2C-I. It actually made me trip real hard, at points I thought I had even taken too much. I have never taken 2C-I since my first time, but I have tried 2C-E at 17mg, mixed with lots of uppers, I found 2C-E to have a nicer body high though.
interesting that one of the more reckless members we have here takes some of the most cautious doses of 2ci/e
2C-I was (recently actually) my first real psychedelic. I take Zyprexa, a 5-HT2a/2c antagonist, so I require about double the dose of a normal person to get results. I take 30mg or so, mixed with water, measured out in a medicine cup (I made a 1mg/1mL solution), and that seems to be perfect. I enjoy it a lot. I even suffer from a pretty nasty mental illness with psychosis and I don't have a problem with it. The psychosis from real life when I am not medicated is far scarier than the little blips of creepiness that accompany the 2C-I experience.
