100mg 2C-B Accident

Although I have been passionate about the topic for many years, I only started using psychedelics three years ago, so I still consider myself a beginner, even though I’ve been using them quite frequently at medium-low doses recently.

In terms of peak experiences, I’ve only had one bad trip with mushrooms and an ecstatic trip with LSD.

Recently, I bought 0.5g of very pure 2C-B from a high-quality seller, and I immediately thought that with €36, I couldn’t have bought 50 doses, but more like 5 doses, so I divided it into 5 little packets of 0.1g each, convinced that this corresponded to the recommended dose of 10mg! Usually, I’m a nerd and not so idiotic and careless, but I believe my subconscious was working to give me an important experience and led me to be so strangely superficial at the moment of dosing.

So, I went around for several days carrying these 5 doses, which I considered microdoses to take, for example, at aperitivo hour while my friends were having a beer.

I was incredibly lucky to have taken one of these doses in what turned out to be an almost ideal set and setting. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I had taken it as planned during one of my outings in the city with friends. Instead, it happened last Sunday on the beach near the San Felice Circeo mountain in Italy, a magnificent place, with three dear friends, and fortunately, only one of them followed me in taking a dose of 2C-B. Luckily, this friend has extensive experience with drugs, even at high doses, but despite this, within a few hours, he immediately realized it would be the most powerful and difficult trip of his life.

I came to realize this later because I was digesting lunch, and the drug kicked in for me about three hours after it did for him, so I thought it was just his hypersensitivity to the substance, and that I could relax because it was only a microdose...

But then my trip began too, and I have to say, at first, it was very beautiful and fun because the sunset on the beach had incredible colors that sparked paradisiacal visions. Every small hole in the sand opened into an abyss, the forest on the mountain churned like a washing machine, my friend's face appeared and disappeared as if frames were missing from a film — in short, the visuals were exceptional and increasingly intense.

I only began to worry when the intensity of the trip started to accelerate, coinciding with the nightfall and my friends becoming tired after acting as a trip sitter for my friend for the previous 4 hours . At this point, one of the most difficult and exhausting experiences of my life began, and it's hard to describe the sensations. From the outside, I probably just looked like a drunk person eating sand, drinking seawater, and growling at the road like a cat hissing when it sees danger.

Inside, I believe what was happening to me was similar to what happens to newborns in the first moments of life, as they suddenly try to adapt to a new world and desperately need love and physical contact not to feel lost. My subconscious revealed itself as hungry for a safe harbor and perhaps the search for a parental figure, which are central themes in my personal life. After the peak, which could have been an ego death (with my ears ringing in the darkness of the vision), the descent was relatively fast, although I continued to have distorted visions for many hours and stayed awake until dawn the next day.

Looking back, I believe music would have been a great help, especially when night fell, to channel the visions into an imaginative acoustic flow. But overall, I think it was an important and above all fortunate experience, and I feel immense gratitude towards my friends who were by my side in such crucial moments.
