I have two capsules which im pretty sure are each 20mg (i am obviously going to check this for sure before I consume anything). I've never done 2c-b before... what should I expect? is 20mg a good dosage for a first time, or should I do less?
20 mgs is a good first time dose, it'll most likely be a very much in control experience. That dose range creates relaxed euphoria with a stimulating headspace, color enhancement and shading of objects and possibly some decent closed eye visuals.
i gave 20 mg to my wife. it was a bit strong for her, but she doesn't like tripping very much. less than 30 mg has consistently done almost nothing to me. for "check"...i'm thinking 20 mg is good. is this your first time with any 2cx or research chemical?
20mg is a great starting point for 2cb if you have never tried it. It will be extremely enjoyable and the next day you will feel like a new person. 2cb is a very magical compound.
the only research chemical ive done is mephedrone but ive done other psychedelics (acid 10+ times, shrooms twice) actually I think i may have taken a DOx once, thinking it was acid. but never done a 2c-x before.
20 is good but you will be life wanting to go higher. My sweet spot if 45-50mgs, Definitely but for a first timer, But if you like the taste you will LOVE the high mg doses. Once you get familiar with everything poke around with combos. My personal favorites are MDMA + B ( B taken about an hour before M ), E + B ( A little more B than E ), and the absolute king is B and LSD (taken the same time space as M + B with the B being dropped first. ) Those are the only combos that I have tried ( That I can recall ATM ). B and E is pretty intense in a good way as well and L and B. I am sure L + B + M would be the tits. Planning on giving it a go in the beginning of Oct. I'll be sure to write up a report.
Yeah i want to experiment with acid and 2c-b after I try 2c-b by itself. Also tips for setting? I was planning on taking it during the day, and then going to this show my friend is playing at (basement show type deal) that night when I'm coming down. Or should I take it before I go out? It seems to be more of a party drug, which would make it fun at the show. Im only nervous about being in a setting with lots of unfamiliar people while coming up, I don't really like that when I'm on acid. But ive been to parties on acid where I don't know lots of people and I still have a good time.
since it's your first time, i'd probably dose at home (or wherever that's comfortable) and then go to the show later. or at least have the option of NOT going to the show unless you feel comfortable doing it once you're tripping. 20 mg could be very mild, or it could be a pretty full on trip. i think i like 2cb better in the evening. it's good for dusk and sunsets, clouds and stuff like that. and candlelight, probably a fire would be really cool. i've dosed 2cb right before going into a free concert (outside so not that crowded). i've dosed 2ce and went to a VERY crowded indoor concert. the heat was the only problem. when i take a low dose of L before concerts, i tend to have more social issues but i'd try 2cb away from the crowd first. the meat of the trip lasts about 4 hours. so you could wait 1 hour to come up (alerts at 25 or 30 minutes for me, and a higher dose)...trip for 2 hours at your house or whatever, and then get a sober ride to the show, trip for 2 more hours there. the comedown isn't too bad but i get a headache usually. LSD is better by itself IMO. 2cb made it quite strong, but made it come with more side effects 2cb is still pretty damn nice, despite the headache though
2cb has a very gentle comeup so taking it before a show is not a bad idea. I've never felt as nervous as acid can make me feel around unfamiliar people with 2cb but I also don't feel more compelled to converse or dance like say MDMA either. It's got some really cool sensory effects and especially at a dose of 20 mgs I get pretty much no negative physical effects.
it was wild how strong 20 mg was for my wife. she get's VERY out there from low to moderate doses of L. i'd say if you can handle a couple hits of acid, 20 mg of 2cb should be fine. but my wife kept saying "this is acid. this is just like acid. did you give me acid?" from reading the PiHKAL passages, she thought it was gonna be more of a roll type experience, which she has no experience with anyways. she didn't expect it to be such a trip, and she had a difficult time coming up in the park with people and families around. like i say...she's sort of a lightweight when it comes to tripping, and families at the park is different than people at a basement show. but i would feel out the effects a little to be more confident. or maybe go to a show the 2nd time i took it.
thank you for all the feedback everyone im thinking about taking it today, but i'd be the only one tripping on anything (everyone else will be drunk/stoned or sober) is it the kind of drug that is ok to take alone? or is it better to be tripping with other people? if anything I could save it till i can find someone to take acid while i take the 2cb or something
Either or... I've enjoyed 2cb solo tripping as well as intimate trips with friends. However I think it would be better to trip with someone on acid rather than around drunk people.
I really really want to take 2cb and paint this table out on my deck... if anything i'm sure i could find someone who wants to trip on acid with me while i do that haha or at least smoke a lot of weed or something
Don't take 55-60ish mgs before a show and miscalculate when it will kick in. You will end up sitting in line coming up like a motherfucker and throw up lol. Happened to me when I saw a Shongle set. Don't get me wrong though, the whole experience was worth it 100%. I find that anything below 30mg at a show is too mild due to all the stimulation (lights, dancing, loud music, mingling with peeps. A cpl times before that (20mg, 30mg) I barely even noticed I was on anything. It was almost nonexistent. I am not saying everyone will have the same experience. Just sharing mine.
I know a lot of people that do hallucinogens , you can tell them all you want about the substance. They always return to talking about acid. unless its shrooms. I notice this with many people. and sometimes its better they keep their mouths running about acid , just because yapping about true substances to loud gets bad press to quick..
she didn't think it WAS acid. just that it FELT like it to her. she hasn't tripped a lot, or on anything but LSD (except shrooms once, and then 2cb once). and since L is my favorite, i find myself comparing other psychedelics to it, even if it's not intentional. i can't help it.
If you have very pure 2c-b hcl 20mg is nice dose and at 30mg it's very visual and probably too much for most people if they intend to take it on party or something like that. If you have 20mg of not so pure stuff or hbr it will be very mild. But it's more about quality of experience, while very pure 2c-b at normal doses produce pleasant or neutral body load with less good 2c-b body load is much stronger even with small doses, still nothing unbearable.
