First Time

A vivid report on 2C-B

Substances: 2C-B

The night was a Thursday and I was starting my long weekend. I had an appointment to meet Frazier Clark at the new Parallel YOUniversity in London, we had a few things to clear up in regards the interview with Psychedelic Illuminations. I had had a stressful day at this temp job I've been doing to fund my expeditions. I got home unable to relax, Thought of buying a can of beer but then thought how it would fog my brain for the rave. So kind of in desperation I decided I didn't need to wait for the 'perfect' set,setting,etc, and downed the four red pills (5mg each) for a combo of 20 mg. Then I sat down and started to dig out all this information I had printed out on 2cb that I got on the net, Gracie and Zarkov,& Shulgin. Then I felt it come on. I put on some ambient tunes and sat back letting feeling good but unsure about how far it would go. The experience was very deep emotionally, I was welling up stuff about myself that I hadn't had the balls to deal with and had been burying. But now I was seeing it in a different light. I could laugh at my fears. Then as the music got a bit faster I started to hallucinate, the wood of the drawer tended to fold in on itself, it didn't melt or anything. I was prefectly coherent and able to deal with conversation and people. The only thing being the fact that I was getting into the experience so much that I tended to get dislocated by small talk, as if I was into these deep feelings and then all of the sudden someone would talk to me and I would have to bring myself back to common linguistic syntax level, but once back was quite capable of aware communication. A friend called me as I began to peak and I started just laughing over the phone so that he would get the idea about what I was talking about rather than relying on cryptic phone code uncrackable by tinkerbells. Thats when I started to feel as if I was being elevated or was levitating, it was like my body was a flying saucer or energy field capable of this. However, this didn't last long, especially as I tried to describe to my bemused friend what actually was happening to me. Later on I had alot of mental imagery going on, mainly about people. I could think of someone and see them in their child-buddha form, although some territorial aquiantance types that we all at some point or another have to deal with came accross more like Jurassic bipeds. Later I touched a bank note, british one, which come in different sizes so the blind have an easier time, but this time I really felt it. I told my friend, who by this time had arrived looking at me, then at his 2cb, then at me,etc. that 'I feel valleys and sharp ridges, mountain peaks, and salt flats.' Before I knew I had said it I looked down at the bill that I was touching, noticing the special feelies for the blind (besides the bill size) was actually a picture in a way, it was like seeing with your fingers. It was an amazing synthesia.

About three and a half hours into the trip we left for the club. I got there and was still enjoying the trip, the music was very enjoyable. I had some people to talk to and did so very coherently. However, I felt this feeling of renewed confidence and deep self-love that allowed me to direct my own will, sometimes I tend to trust to much, listen to others when my own voice says something else. I feel that this substance has great potenial for self and group therapy. I feel that unlike MDMA this drug helps you solve your fears by seeing them in new ways, it makes you feel good about living in your body, joyful to be encarnated in this form. The comedown is slow after the intial peak and there is this integration into your everyday body life. MDMA is still a good therapy, but it really depends on how you cope with coming down, the best thing to do is set a schedule for your MDMA or 2CB consumption and regardless of how you feel you should stick to it. Last E I took was great but when I came down I definately wanted another, instead I just drank like 4 FLast Blast smart drinks. Since it is vogue alot of people try it without much information or reliable sources. Tonight the news ran a shock story about a girl who took an E on her 18th birthday and died. They said the substance was pure MDMA and an analogue??, They also mentioned something about the police finding what they were calling super-E more potent than E.
