Yo, i read somewhere further up on this threat that sc-b is a good beginner psychadellic if ingested orally and taking a low doese. Is there a different name for it or something because I've enever heard of it. And would you recommend taking that before shrooms?
I've taken 2c-b a total of four times; two 2c-b experiences only and two combined with ecstasy. It was also the first drug I tried harder than cannabis.
2c-b is pretty much a very light psychedellic; it does not fuck your mind very much (although the first time you do it can be very overwhelming, at least mine was, so the first time you might get fucked in the head but once you're used to it you can pretty much act sober with no problem the next few times you try it), and there's a bunch of awesome hallucinations.
The hallucinations have been summed up as cheesy 70's light effects which I kind of agree. If light shines on a wall, that light will shift between certain colours, patterns on for instance a curtain will go up and down, walls will be breathing and you can often notice that lines in the wall will appear to have VEINS in which COLOURS flow. It is pretty hard to explain without making an animation or something, but just imagine a thin tube in which colours flow. That's how lines on the wall etc will look.
I've only taken 2c-b nasally and it's a pretty good experience. The ranges I have tried are from 20mg to 15mg, where 20 was very intense at 15 kinda lame, so it's hard to hit the exact spot, but I actually didn't have a problem with the intense experience (the biggest problem with 20mg nasally is the coming up, as the bodyload is rather shit for the first 45 minutes or so).
2c-b, nasally, takes about 45 minutes up, and as mentioned there's a pretty big bodyload for those 45 minutes. Then the bodyload suddenly disappears over the matter of a few minutes and you reach the peak at the same time. The peak lasts for about 2 hours and then there's a 2-3 hour comedown. This might vary; for my 20mg trip the peak lasted about 3 hours and the comedown lasted about 5.
2c-b also gives you a lot of energy (which is why the coming up is really bad, because you feel kinda sick yet you feel like you have to move, kinda like on a lot of caffeine), and once you're up you'll want to walk around and explore the place you're at. What's kinda cool is that if there's a room that seems interesting to inspect (if you think this), then you can actually see coloured light shining out from that room. The colours are just extremely awesome and corelate with whatever you're fascinated about. Since you have a lot of energy and you'll want to explore, you'll probably walk around whereever you're tripping a lot, so I recommend getting a full house or an appartment to trip and not just a room.
You'll also get fascinated by pretty much everything, and during intense trips your ability to hold a thought will be greatly reducded. I remember I'd go talk to someone because I really wanted to and they seemed really fascinating, and when I was done saying one line to them (like "Hey man how are you doing?") I would already be bored about talking to them, and just move on and not care what they answered. And then 5 minutes later, I'd see them again and go "Hey, I gotto go talk to him/her!" and the scene would more or less repeat.
During the comedown, the energy flow kinda vanishes and since you've been really active for the past 2-3 hours (walking around and being fascinated by blank walls) it's nice to able to just relax and watch the colours and wall-breathing slowly disappear. It's a really nice way to go back into soberness, just watching the effects fade slowly.
So yeah, 2c-b is a great beginner drug and was my beginner drug and I recommend it to anyone wanting to experience a psychedellic drug. It's not very dangerous and is pretty euphoric by nature, doesn't last too long and you're pretty much clear-headed for most of the ride.
To end it I just wanna mention some weird behavior. My friend tried showing me a picture (on the wall) and said "Isn't that a nice picture?" and I'd say "That's not a picture," and simply point at the blank wall behind it (the wall was completely blank for them, but for me, colours and shit was running all around it in a really cool circular movement) and say "Now, THAT's a picture."
So yeah, 2c-b is a really great drug and I can't wait to use it again. Just don't expect too much; it's a really cool light-show with minimal mindfuck. You won't meet God, or have a revelation, but you'll see the coolest fucking colours and shit you've ever seen.
ALSO ALSO this is rare, but on my 20mg trip I also saw several geometrical figures flowing around, especially when I closed my eyes. I think this is rather rare, since the other people that have tried it haven't seen this. Just thought I'd mention, if you trip hard you'll see them flowing around. If you do that, at least you know you're in an intense trip.
