What happened to our local Psychonaut?
| She blasted off into worlds unknown.
| She overdosed on life and died.
| Catfished and trapped in the dungeon like the other guurls.
| She is taking wild drugs in the afterlife
| Hey, sorry folks! I didn't realize people wanted to have a follow-up.
I am, in fact, still alive. I got both of my dextromethorphan polistirex >>>and my nitrous oxide, but I didn't quite trip how I planned. I decided against doing the DXM because I had other things I need to do and a 12 hour long robotrip needs to be planned carefully and only when the time is really available. I did, however, do 12 of the 20 N2O chargers that I had. It was my first time ever trying N2O.
| It took me four balloons just to figure out how to do it right, I kept messing it up, but once I figured it out I definitely had an experience. First, second and third balloons were alright, its more of a temporary euphoria than a dissociative experience. My fingertips and hands got tingly, my body got relaxed, music got seemingly louder and somewhat wavy, but it lasted less than a minute and a half, and overall I wasn't terribly impressed.
That changed when I did two balloons.
| When I did two, it lasted longer, probably about two minutes. I actually had to do it slower than I wanted, holding the balloons closed with the gas inside while also using the cracker I had was a bit much for my hands, especially with how delicate you have to handle the cracker. The gas is extremely cold, so when you put it out into the balloon, you can freeze your hands if you're not careful (which is also why you use a balloon and NEVER EVER inhale straight from the cracker.)
| So I resorted to holding one of the balloons in my mouth with my teeth, which ended up almost sealing the balloon shut. In the future, I'm going to get a full-on dispenser instead of a cheap cracker, and also thicker, better balloons. Had to practically suck on the thing to get the gas out (phrasing). Anyway, the music I was listening to got very, very flangy I guess? Like, I heard the frequencies being played like an electronic sawblade, it was different for sure.
| Anyway, after that I started to get a headache, so I decided to do three balloons and end the night, saving the rest for when I actually do my DXM trip, and that was when the nitrous actually felt like it was a trip. I had to hold two of them in my mouth and one in my hands, so one got pinched again, though the other didn't.
| That time, I remember laying on my back, closing my eyes, and seeing these layers upon layers of rotating circles with lines in the middles of them like cogwheels or something, rotating around in a bunch of different colors, as I rapidly began to stop feeling my body. It was the stereotypically "Comfortably Numb" feeling, like, just such a blissful euphoria, though I wouldn't rate it high on the introspective aspect in comparison to other hallucinogens I've done. Overall: not bad!
| Anyway, after that though, I began to get a pretty big headache, likely from the lack of air, so I decided to stop for the night and save the rest of my chargers for when I do my DXM trip. Nitrous was interesting, and fun, but by itself it takes a lot to really feel much.
A few important tips when it comes to doing nitrous oxide (N2O):
| -Always let the gas out into a balloon and never inhale directly from a dispenser or cracker, because this allows the gas to warm up first. Inhaling nitrous oxide when too cold can freeze your lungs and throat, which is obviously bad.
-There are generally two inhaling methods: inhaling and exhaling repeatedly back into the balloon, or inhaling once, holding it in, and then exhaling out of the balloon. People think you get higher with the first method. That's not fully true.
| The first method does get you "higher", I can confirm, but that's from suffocating yourself of air, not from the nitrous. You need to breathe air if you're going to do this, because you need air to live, so just do the second method.
-Have a source of vitamin B12 handy. Nitrous will deprive you of B12. You know you're deprived of it if, once your trip ends, your extremities like your fingers and toes will remain painfully numb. If that happens, cease use immediately.
| When I do my DXM and N2O trip, I'll let you guys know! Stay safe, and trippy :)
