I wasn't planning on writing this up, but I feel like this might be useful for other people. I took this substance to explore what my mind can do, and to learn whatever I can find to learn from it; I feel like I've accomplished this, though it took several tries over several weeks at several doses. Overall my opinion of this drug is more negative than positive, but I certainly wouldn't undo having ever taken it. I accomplished exactly what I wanted with this drug, and learned exactly what I think I wanted to learn, or, at least something of the same nature as what I wanted.
I acquired the blotters a couple weeks before my seventeenth birthday from an online vendor. They were smaller than I expected, being about one-half of a centimeter squared. They were advertised as containing 1.1mg each, and as each sheet appeared to be 200x200 blotters, the error on each one should be very small. My previous drug experience includes a lot of marijuana, mushrooms, DXM, and alcohol if that one counts. I feel like I'm leaving something off, but I can't quite think of what it would be... The eighth of mushrooms were very un-introspective; I really just felt like there was a hurricane going on in my head preventing me from thinking, and I couldn't focus enough on sensations for them to make much sense. I felt generally emotionless, except that I knew it was a very significant thing to be happening to me. I had no hallucinations except for patterns on a wall melting, and neither lighting nor coloring changed. It was all perceptual, not sensational. That was another story, though.
Each of these will be briefer than they could be. I didn't expect to write about them and my memory of the actual events are all either faded or gone. The purpose of this document is to describe the effects that I experienced at various doses with varying tolerance.
I got home from school and I didn't have work, and I had just gotten the blotters earlier in the day. I wanted to take them alone, so I took one blotter and stuck in between my gum and upper lip and I waited. I swallowed the tabs and saliva after about 40 minutes.
I went into this with the mindset that I could handle it. I knew that no matter what happened, everything would be Okay. Even if I did start having a bad trip, I knew I could control myself enough to get back. If this weren't my mindset, it wouldn't have been what happened.
I noticed the effects to start to take place in about 30 minutes. In every subsequent trip, the come up was faster than the one before. I first noticed that I was slightly confused, and the word 'blunted' came to mind to describe the feeling. My thoughts were blunted. It was very mild at first, and it became more and more intense over the next hour. I could still function completely normally, but my thoughts were definitely starting to fall apart. It got harder and harder to think, and normal thoughts started to become more abstract.
About an hour after ingestion, I started noticing very faint visuals such as colors in my peripheral. It was about thirty minutes later that things started to get a bit more interesting. My mind started to open up. The pressure between the sides and back of my head that I had mistaken earlier for confusion was really my mind opening up to let go of its representation of reality that it creates. My mind felt as though it was opening up, to finally accept ideas I had always assumed impossible for humans to understand. As this opening up feeling intensified, it became very electric. I felt very electric and stimulated, and it was almost orgasmic--it was certainly much more intense than an orgasm.
Over the next hour (t+1:30-t+2:30) my field of vision became much less 'solid,' like it didn't have to be the way that it was. I understood that it was all in my head and it was just my imagination. There was absolutely no basis for anything I experienced--it could be anything and I could still experience it and my brain could still make sense out of it, so long as there was order to be made sense of. I was just a biological process that had gone its entire life without realizing just what reality really looked like, but now I could see it. Without the human ideas of space and time, or of the things we learn from society to think, my mind was completely open for the first time in my life.
Visually, there was a sort of purple aura covering most outlines. Purple probably isn't the best word to describe its appearance, but that's the closest approximation I can come up with. The patterns on the walls were impossible to focus on, but if I could have focused on them, I suspect I would have watched them all blend together. The normal visual static became much more intense, and in the center horizontal part of my vision, the individual dots took on entire shapes, such as hooks and crescents. Some of those shapes formed patterns which represented ideas. The same patterns would occur over my whole field of vision, but they only took their shape from what was near the center of my vision. Things in my peripheral would move and things just looked a bit off in general.
Overall, I had expected much more from my dose. The next night would be my next chance for awhile and I was eager, so I tripled my dose, yes, to 3.3mg. [Erowid Note: 3.3 mgs of 25C-NBOMe is considered an extremely high dose, see 25C-NBOMe Dose Chart] It was probably one of the stupidest things I've ever done, but I did it. I had assumed without even thinking about it that I must have mistaken the doses of 25I- and 25C-NBOMe, so 3.3mg was relatively safe. Also, I considered that I had a tolerance, so it was all good. I stuck three hits under my tongue and waited. I decided I'd play this Start Wars RTS I had only played once before while I waited for the come-up to really start, because that had taken over an hour the day before.
I was tired this time and I wasn't too sure I should even do it. I was a bit hesitant because I was tired and had just gotten off work, but this was a good time to do it. I wouldn't have this good of a chance for awhile, so I just did it. I was already tired and had a hard time controlling my thoughts and emotions, and I was worried it would go badly. If I hadn't gone into it with this mindset, it wouldn't have gone this way.
About 15 minutes in I noticed that I felt a bit confused, which threw me off because it had taken about 45 minutes to get to this point the day before. I figured it was the dosage, but even small doses (
