No, he's talking about Mephedrone.

It's a lot like acid in terms of visual and auditory hallucinations. To me it has more of a body feeling than acid does, and feels more... earthy? Acid has a more electric/plastic feeling to me. I prefer acid, but shrooms get the job done.
They taste horrid, and you get a bout of nausea on the come up. There's a nice rush on the come up that's a little more tame than an acid come up, but you get the same general feeling.
On the peak, I tend to get strictly shroom-related CEV's (closed eye visuals) that differ from the ones I get on acid, but the intensity is no different.
The OEV's are somewhat similar to acid.
Auditory hallucinations are pretty similar... music sounds pretty intense at moderate doses of either substance.
Obviously you have to eat more shrooms than you would acid, but you don't have to eat very many. If you're of average size and weight, 5 or 6 mushrooms are enough to get you going well. I don't really know the dosage in grams.. when I used to take them, we used to go out and pick them from cow fields and spend an entire weekend frying our brains out.

If you've never taken acid, my comparisons will be rather vague to you, but it's hard to really verbalize and express the important aspects of tripping beyond the usual every-day explanation.
There's a deep *mind* aspect of it that only becomes fully realized when you actually do it.

Try out Erowid.org and read some of the trip reports for shrooms.
There are thousands.

Thanks a LOT dude, this was indeed very helpful. You kind of made it sound quite appealing however... I think... I'll give it a go...

actually 2c-i/2c-b. Salvia is an alright mind**** for a few minutes, except for the fact that it makes me sweat like a hog. It would be really killer if it werent so damn expensive.

[Freebase Dali]

Ah, I thought you were talking about Mephedrone because you quoted me talking about it in your reply. I thought 2c and all its variants were illegal in the states?


Yea, I don't really dig Salvia. I had bought 6 grams 20X when I was still in Germany, smoked a lot of it and let a lot of friends try it. It's more fun to watch someone else on it than be on it yourself. I still have around 1.5 grams of it rotting away in my desk drawer. It's just not appealing to me anymore. Same crazy dream trip every time.

Last I knew, it was legal in the states and the only things I have read about someone being charged for possession was when the man was falsely charged for cocaine, but as far as I know it is not illegal in the US because it is not that well known. Also, I do know that the sale of it for purposes other than its intended use are in fact very illegal.

Well it's a little weird because Mephedrone isn't scheduled in the US, but it's covered under the Federal Analogue Act just for being chemically similar to a scheduled substance, and/or having similar effects.

2C's variants could well fall under that umbrella.
Normally small quantities of analogues don't attract much attention, but possession of large quantities carries the intent to distribute penalty, and won't be overlooked, even if the specific drug isn't scheduled but is considered an analogue.
The Analogue Act effectively banned any substance that exists or will exist that has similar properties and effects to known illegal drugs.

They did that because there's no way they could keep up with the drug culture.

Thats pretty much what I read. I'd say research chems are in my top 3.

I just wish I could get my hands on some Meph.
There were a couple sites that I found who'd ship to the states, but their payment system was ridiculously complex and a little shady.
