we had just been to the pub for a few pints. went back to a mates house for a couple of spliifs (as you do). someone there starts offering out lines coke and everyone enjoys. someone else who was there goes to the toilet. while he's away the person with the coke decides to share his 2c-b. he hands out 6mg lines to everyone who wants some. this is not a huge amount as about 10mg is the normal dose when snorting. i have never snorted more than 10mg in 1 go before and the most i have ever known anyone to snort at once is 15mg. the 6mg just went nicely with the coke, drink and weed. anyway, when the guy returns from the toilet he is offered a line. thinking we still doing coke he knocks up a 25-30mg line and snorts it. i cant even imagine how much this would hurt but luckliy he's a hard bastard. he ended up sitting in the bathroom for about 5 hours asking what the time was every so often.
this happened about a week and a half agoand still no one is quite sure what was happening in the bathroom or what his trip was all about. because RC's are relativly safe as far as i know he did pass out, feel i'll, or have any seriously bad side effects.

[pancho]

swim took around 120-150mg give or take 10mg and they sat in a car for the 1st 2-3 hours and didn't say a word, and just kept lookin at his watch every so often. theres no way to fully describ what was happening. but thinkin you just got trapped in a "time warp thing and could never get out" was definently on his mind

[HippieD9]

Why were you all snorting it in the first place? That hurts like hell! Not only that, but it's dangerous. Your friend is lucky to be alive.

[geordie]

it hurts yeah, but we get it in powder form, you need less when snorting so its cheeper, you come up quicker and snorting it is hardly anymore dangerous than eating it, just another way of getting it into your body.

[HippieD9]

Snorting it is a lot more dangerous from what I've heard, especially when not being careful with the doses. SWIM has done it both ways, and will never snort it again! Just my 2cents.





Peace,

snorting RC's is stupid and dangerous, people going beyond their limits
is what speeds up the illegality of them in the first place.



tell your friend to show a little more common sense next time

[meatfix]

i ran it the first and only time i've done it. the dude i was with did it that way too. funny thing is he stayed in the john for a really really long timetoo. all i can really remember is wondering how long i was gonna be trippin frankly it was a bit too intense for me. eating it would have been fine i think especially if it comes on more slowly giving time to adjust a littlei can only speculate never had the opportunity to try it again


("speculate" is such a wierd word it sounds like a personal problem)

There is no, repeat NO chemical I would rather snort than take orally
if the oral route can be accomplished. Even though it is more
efficient/cost-effective, and even though i'm all about saving money
and being efficient, the effects curve from insufflation is just not
enjoyable for me. With most RCs, I don't actually want the effects to
hit hard and all at once -- I want to have plenty of time to adjust and
anticipate the trip and "settle into" it.



That's beside the fact that it burns and tastes nasty and hurts your throat.



Finally, even when insufflating, 2C-B is the LAST RC I would
insufflate. It's really quite speedy and twitchy to begin with, I can't
IMAGINE maginfying that effect by having it come on all at once. If I
ever insufflate things it's almost always tryptamines, not phens.

^^ I guess the one exception in 2C-T-7. Although you have to be VERY
careful with dose, I have had fair-to-good results insufflating it. I
think this is only because the oral route gives me so much nausea.

[enquirewithin]

Does anyone know the relationship between the dose snorted and the dose
insufflated? I think for 2Cx's insufflation is about three times the
strength. Also, the peak arrives quickly and is possibly more intense
than the peak of triple the dose orally.



Is there any rule of thumb?

[HippieD9]

I go by 4x for the 2Cs. As in 5mg up the schnoz is about 20mg eaten. This is for 2c-i/e, but others are similar. Now that ya know, don't do it!





Peace,


D.

[meatfix]

injected 25mg and was back to my senselessnessin 8 hours or so

I agree that with the 2C's it's three- to four-times more powerful
snorted. Unlike tryptamines which in my experience are more like twice
as powerful snorted. I really fucked up this way with 2C-T-7 recently,
snorted close to 20mg thinking it would be like 40mg oral, it was
definitely more like 60-80mg oral. I was extremely kicked in the ass.

[enquirewithin]

That's intersting information. Thanks. But if you get the dose correct
is there not some advantage to sniffing some rc's because it reduces
the the time, by possibly 20 percent or so, which can be an advantage
for those short on time.

^^ If you are very careful with the dose, and don't mind fucking up
your sinuses, then insufflation is a viable route with many chemicals.
Personally, it's so unpleasant (burn, drip, etc) I'd rather use more
material and have a better trip.



But I will admit to snorting things in the past to have a shorter trip.
But this usually coincided with me doing the drugs at a time when I
really shouldn't have -- i.e. when should you really have to "rush" a
trip??

[Peyote]

SWIM has founda dealer who makes his own 2c-b! Was thinking of ordering 2c-i but 2c-b has my attention now (less intoxicity afaik)!


What should I expect? I tried mushrooms,mdma,mda,speed,methylone,coke,mescaline and few other things..To which substance is it closest?

[FrankenChrist]

It's always been near the top of my "to-try" list. Haven't found it yet.

Said to be between XTC and LSD. Can have some aphrodisiac-like (anyone got a better word? :P ) properties.

[mariecurie]

I'm aware of people who have tried both repeatedly and they would all
recommend 2C-B over 2C-I. 2C-B is a little more speedy than 2C-I. The
peak of 2C-I is also very flat (ie. you'll be at the same height for a
few hours) whereas 2C-B goes up and down and up and down for a few
hours. 2C-I is a little more beginner friendly in that it's not very
pushy, but my friends seem to think the slight pushiness that 2C-B can
get to be much more interesting. Repeated 2C-I usage would definitely
get boring.



Visually 2C-I tends more towards typical psychedelic visuals
(fractals/breathing) and it has a very "familiar" body feeling. I refer
to it as a generic psychedelic that wants to be LSD and is friendly for
first time users. 2C-B visuals are amazing. SWIM has never seen so many
colors in his life.



Basically, as you can see from my post, 2C-B is highly recommended as I
feel it is very unique whereas 2C-I is only slightly recommended
because I feel it is generic.



2C-I's dosage curve levels off much faster from what I know as well. 2C-B insufflated can get you tripping SOOOOOOO hard.



Happy trails

[Peyote]

Thanks mariecurie..great post!





Franken: i don't want erowid reports Just from users of this forum.

[dmax]

I reccomend 2ci over 2cb. The experience is more classically
psychedelic, in my opinion. That is, 2cb will make you trip, but
it's mostly pretty colors, very little mental effect. 2ci has
much more of a head trip, which is really what I'm looking for. I
can watch a music visualization on my computer if I really want to see
something that looks cool. The impossibilities in my thought
patterns are what I find difficult to acheive without external
stimulus. Therefore, 2cb is much less interesting. Other
people, however, seem to like it more than anything else, so each to
his own.

[yajw]

2c-b has seemed to be like the best parts of a candyflip without the
commitment. It's not as deep as somethings out there, but it is quite
an enjoyable chemical. The visualizations are quite fun, and more so
depending on the environment. The chemical has an erotic feeling to it,
and yes it seems to say that in most reports, but it just does have
that good of a feeling.



The funny thing I've noticed is the varience of first alerts for a
number of people. One fellow can be heading on up within half an hour,
and another is just starting to feel it at the 2 hour mark. Next to
lyseric and mushrooms, this is a favorite during the desert and forest
research sabbaticals.

2C-B does have a tactile component that is not present in many other
psychedelics. This can be both good (erotic) and kind of annoying (an
everpresent "itchyness" or "fizziness" in the body).



I prefer 2C-B over 2C-I. B seems to have a fuller character and
although the stimulation isn't exactly LESS than that from 2C-I, it's
somehow less caffeine-y, less jumpy. That said, they are very similar
-- including one very undesirable aspect which is that the effects of
both seem to linger for a LONG time, i.e. several days.

[yajw]

Strange. No-one I've met has seemed to comment about any lingering. For
most, it seems to be one of the more favorite items due to there not
being any lingering effect. While I've noticed the lenght of comittment
does differ for most, strangely enough, there is a point of coming down
when it's as if a light switch was thrown and the experience is done.
Most comment on that it is more of their favorite since they don't have
the "day after" effect more pronounced with MDMx compounds or LSD.



Nice to learn that there are other effects for some folks.

[Alfa]

I've noticed a higher emotionality in the days after 2c-b use with various people. Anyone else notice this?

[Peyote]

High emotionality? Is that good or bad??
