Perspectives

“I’m not sure if its easy to hole on 3-MeO-PCP by itself. It seems like you need some sort of potentiator, maybe a smidgen of psychedelics. A lot of weed seemed to really do the trick though.”

Background: I'm experienced with LSD, Ketamine, MXE, MDMA, Whippets, DMT (2 trips, both sub-breakthrough), different stims... and prob some stuff I forgot. Also tried 3-MeO-PCP twice before this time, 7mg & 11mg - both snorted.

I live in a part of the world, where there is virtually no black market for drugs.... It is an small town in the arctics only connected to the surrounding world by airplanes and ships.

A Medium-Dose Intro to a Fun Dissociative positive exp #113960

About me: A lot of past experience with every kind of drug, in particular dissociatives and psychedelics. My favorites are LSD, 2C-E and MXE.

The Window Of Transcendence positive exp #115334

3-MeO-PCP and the Window of Transcendence - Retrospective The first time I experienced 3-MeO-PCP I had been experimenting with ketamine intranasally and I was intrigued by this analogue of what was historically known as angel dust (PCP) and the anecdotal reports that it was generating.

Lovely, But Very Dose Dependent neutral exp #104700

My doses were properly weighed out and volumetric dosing was used for accurate and easier sublingual. 3-MeO-PCP is _NOT_ a chemical to be exploring with if you do not have the proper methods of measurement.

Life-Ruining Disaster cautionary exp #114331

[Erowid Note: Two samples of powder (even of the same chemical) with equivalent volumes won't necessarily weigh the same. For this reason, eyeballing is an inaccurate and potentially dangerous method of measuring, particularly for substances that are active in very small amounts.
