I attempted to keep a written record of my experience as it was happening. I had my significant other (SO) as my sitter, who later filled in the gaps in my record.
Mindset: I didn�t really think anything was going to happen. I was hoping for a psychonautic experience.
Setting: Mostly home, with a small bit of travelling.
Dosage: Unsure.
Meds: Not on any currently. I have been off anti-depressants for nearly a year. I smoked some Indica cannabis during my experience. I am a seldom cannabis user.
On March 15:
At 10:00am, I smoke a half a bowl of Indica strain to prepare. I want to be in the right mindset. At this point I have an empty stomach. The drug was tested by a friend, and while we are reasonably sure we know what it is (95% sure), there is no way to know for certain. The drug came in some kind of edible. Grape chocolate, maybe? It is more like a grape brick, 3 inch diameter, 1 inch high. It is almost a year old from when we received it. I�m not sure exactly how old it was when we got it. We sealed it and put it in a cool place, but neither of us are convinced it is still good.
At 10:25am, I cut up a fourth of it into pill sized chunks and swallow, chasing it with about a third of a beer. At 10:45am, we leave for Bojangles. I notice a bit of a time distortion and note that I am very intrigued by the perception of motion (the relay between the eye and the brain), but I think it�s just pot. When I am warned not to eat too soon because I will burn myself, I feel the memory, the burning of my mouth, physically in the present. I confirm that I had not actually taken a bite.
By 11:24am, I feel like I am coming down. I am fairly certain at this point that all I have experienced is just cannabis. I note that I am frustrated and annoyed. By 11:54am, I have a mild headache and am pretty tired, so I go to sleep. I wake up at 2:45pm and still do not feel anything. At 4:00pm, SO notices that my eyes are dilated. However, I feel nothing.
On March 16:
We decide to wait 12 hours and try again with a larger dose and a different delivery method. I powder half of the remaining brick and put it in a PowerAde. It does not dissolve. I try not to think about the smell as I drink it. It smells like vomit. I stir it with a spoon every time I drink to make sure it stays evenly distributed. I drink most of it before giving up. I start drinking it at 11:25am. Ten minutes later, I smoke half a bowl. I feel a little shaky. I drop the cap to my water bottle. I think that it�s probably just nerves from drinking something gross. At 11:46, I�m still smoking, and I notice how pretty the smoke is. I could just stare at it swirling. By 11:49, I am done smoking.
As I walk into the living room and reach the couch where my SO is sitting, I feel it hit hard. I am so overwhelmed I can�t sit down. I can see everything. It extends for forever. SO helps me sit down and hands me my notebook. At 11:55am, I write �Experiencing every tiny instant as forever. Every picture (instant) becomes infinity. Very overwhelming.� At 11:55am, I write �Experiencing every tiny instant as forever. Every picture (instant) becomes infinity. Very overwhelming.�
