Over the past two weeks, my wife and I have been in Portugal for an annual music and arts festival called Waking Life. We were working as part of a group called Avozinha, or 'Little Grandmother' in Portuguese, helping to provide support for people who may have used drugs, were in need of psychedelic support, mental hea...

Summary
DMXE emerged in October 2020 as an MXE replacement following MXE's global ban. Batches vary significantly in purity - tan/sandy powder often benefits from acetone recrystallization to reduce impurities and minimize hangover effects. Visual geometry tends toward blue-violet tessellated patterns.
Perspectives
“Oh what a lovely substance! There is so much this drug has to offer and I am excited to see it explored further. I can only think of two negativesβthe short duration and the high dosage.”

Tolerance
Build-up
develops with repeated use over days to weeks
Reset
2β4 weeks for noticeable reduction
Tolerance Decay
Full tolerance
1d
Half tolerance
14d
Baseline
~28d
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session β the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Acute tolerance rises within a session and across days; many users report unpredictability and diminished effects with frequent use. Long washouts (β₯4 weeks) are commonly used to restore baseline response. Estimates are anecdotal and inferred from MXE/ketamine patterns and community reports on DMXE.

For the impatient seeking one answer: Is this like MXE? In some ways yes, but it is hardly a perfect imitation. It is in fact something delightful and exciting entirely of its own and certainly worthwhile to explore further.
This trip is being documented as I experience it. The writing style reflects my mental state. Prior: 6ft 140lb male. My tolerance is fairly baseline. I've used a dissociative on average once a month this year. I've used the "new" batch of MXE (renowned for its lacklusterness) twice and both times were underwhelming.
Boofing 50mg DMXE and Watching Madoka Magica Trip Report Introduction I decided to boof 50mg of DMXE, a novel dissociative RC that I ordered online, and watch Madoka Magica, a popular anime series, in the evening after a stressful day. I had experience with 2fdck before, but this was my first time trying DMXE.
120mg live report: ROA: oral Goal: An experience similar to a K-hole. Hoping for psychedelic effects, as my previous experiences only have had dissociative effects. Tolerance: Slight tolerance due to prior DMXE use, though IΒm very sensitive to substances. 20mg was quite intense for me, so keep that in mind.
Dosed 90mg of 2-FDCK approx. 14 hours ago, all effects faded and I had a good 7 hours of sleep in that time, but I would presume it had an effect on my dissociative tolerance.
IΒve been self-medicating for about 25 years to manage what I later discovered in my late 30s was undiagnosed ADHD. The most effective treatment for me has always been full-psychedelic doses of psilocybin mushrooms.
This is more of a vague retrospective than a coherent trip report due to the nature of the drug in question and my own stupidity. Perhaps you can learn something from my mistakes, or just gawk at the sheer idiocy of the indomitable human spirit.
