    Summary TheDrug.Wiki TripSit PsychonautWiki

    3-MMC is a structural isomer of mephedrone created as a legal replacement after 4-MMC prohibition. It acts as both a reuptake inhibitor and releasing agent for dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, with stronger dopaminergic and noradrenergic activity than mephedrone. Insufflation causes significant nasal discomfort.

    Ok, this is my experience of 3mmc/icecream First let me describe myself. I am a 25 year old male, weighing about 65kg, 175cm tall. My usage was mainly nasal, oral only a couple of times. I started using ice about 2 months ago. The nasal dosage was always from about 100mg to 200mg.

    My partner and I have now taken it three times a couple of months apart. What we love most about it is now it is simultaneously both so light and yet so profound. It doesnΒ’t get us high, thereΒ’s little body load - a bit of jaw clenching and the stimulant effect lasts a few hours after the euphoric part has ended.

    I think of myself as an educated, rational-thinking guy, that is very curious in substances that alter the human mind. I try to keep my consumption habits in a moderate range and reflect my drug taking pattern to stay physically and mentally healthy.

    I would consider myself a rational scientific-minded young man, with a great interet in mind-altering psychoactive compounds. To this day, I have tried numbers of cathinones such as Hexen (N-ethyl-hexedrone), NDH, 3-FPM and others, though I prefer psychedelics to cathinones and other speed-like substances.

    Prior experience: 4-MMC, MDMA, MDA, Meth, Amphetamine, Dexedrine, cocaine etc. This stuff was vile. The vendor has always sold what's advertised in the past however. Sourced early 2020. Prior to this no drugs for over a year except 2.5mg diazepam per day.

    The following experience happened a few months ago. I've been a semi-regular drug user over the past few years. Prior to this experience, I've taken 5-MAPB, LSD, cannabis, MDMA, speed, ketamine, and 2C-B, in various doses and settings.

    I reluctantly ordered some 3-MMC from an online vendor because I canΒ’t seem to contain my fascination with the substituted cathinones. This is one of those RCs for which there is very little data, so it is treading on new ground for the most part. Exercising caution is the wise way to go.

    Okay so, still on the comedown right now, so sorry if my words are slightly sporadic. Basically I tried 3-mmc for the first time at a rave a few months ago and I really liked it.

    My interest in research chemicals has grown significantly in the last while. Why? Because most drugs that i have access to are shit and ridiculously expensive. Instead of complaining or listening to the complaints of why all research chemicals are shit i thought i would go through one by one and test them.

    After my first experience a few days before, at 1, 10, 20, 30mg orally over about 3 hours or so, totalling 60mg (which was surprisingly quite active for such a low dose), I upped the dose a bit over that and started at 80mg this time. On a full stomach this took probably an hour to have an effect.
