My Experience of PCP Aka Wet. I Loved It. PCP has such a bad history to it and I think I know why. All of this is NOT FACT and it is all my personal opinion. I do believe it to be true. If you want to skip to the Experience itself, then scroll down to EXPERIENCE.

Tolerance
Build-up
develops with repeated use over days to weeks
Reset
2–4 weeks for noticeable reduction
Tolerance Decay
Full tolerance
3d
Half tolerance
7d
Baseline
~21d
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session — the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Rapid tolerance develops with repeated exposure and partially generalizes across NMDA-antagonist dissociatives. Anecdotal and clinical observations suggest tolerance recedes substantially over 2–4 weeks of abstinence; prolonged heavy use may leave residual cognitive changes beyond simple tolerance. Data quality is limited and varies by compound and route.

In my long history of drug use, this experience was the most beautiful, the most pure and also the one that probably hurt me the most in the end. I am writing this about 11 years after the fact, so I was about 19 at the time.
The very first time I smoked PCP it actually was pleasant. It was kind of like being high after smoking marijuana but without the lazy feeling I sometimes get. I felt happy, energetic and I didn't get the munchies.
This was my first experience with PCP. I cant recall a lot of the experience but Ill do my best to. This happened on Friday March 13th in 2014. I picked up a friend who had the drug percured from a Chinese company which I wont disclose here. It was extra potent and boy was I curious to try it.
In the summer of 2004 my perception of the world changed dramatically. As a girl who had never so much as thought about the possibilties of mind-altering substances and even if I had I would never had fully comprehended the effects, I naively allowed my friend at the time, a boy called Alex whom I knew to be quite an e...
The first time i used pcp 'wet' was after a normal days work selling vaccums, i was a sales man at the time. i arranged to meet up wit the homie 'rocket' and my brother in law. i thought we were going to smoke a blunt honestly.
'It doesn't rain much in California but everyone's always wet.' The drug in discussion is PCP also known as water in its liquid form. It is a scarce drug to find these days aside from certain areas in CA and parts of the East Coast.
I wanted to share some thoughts on PCP. I woke up this morning still feeling slighty numb and 'fuzzy' from smoking last night. Not going to work, was not an option so here I am, reading about PCP. No more than a couple minutes after smoking do I realize, wow I am fucked up. Having smoked before, it's expected.

PCP Saved my life This is basically a summary of my experiences with my favorite drug PCP. I consider my self one of the many people who are known as dustfiends, a proud member of the Dust Fiend Team. It has so many beneficial qualities aside from the amazing high. It makes your tolerance go waaayyy down.
This is my first time posting here on bluelight, but I had to share this experience. I'm a veteran of several psychedelics, LSD, psilocybin, DMT, specifically and have enjoyed a variety of enjoyable experiences on each of them. None of them have anything on what it was like to finally do PCP.
Ok, well. I'm not sure what to write about ths experience really. I had acquired 40mg od PCP from a chemist a couple of months ago. The substance was in it's (hcl?) salt from as perfectly white powder. I hd snorted 7mg before and loved it.
Here's what came up with my research on 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine and its analogs. I've seen there's quite an interest in PCP analogs right now so I thought I would dig up my kind of old notes and reports (cut syntheses) and post a somewhat cumulative trip report/summary.
Hi everyone this is my account of last weekends wet binge. I am your everyday pot smoker, trip here and there and smoke pcp when i feel like it. Last friday night my friend L in Philly called me to come out with him and some old friends. I knew right away I was gonna be in for some shit with theese wild ass bastards .
PCP - Experienced (sorta) - Voyageur PCP has been one drug I was DYING to try, simply out of curiousity since I love dissociatives and since it is so rare and has so much mystique surrounding it. I was ecstatic when a good friend announced that he had found some.
It was Thursday evening, I was planning to go to the surfcup to meet a new amphetamine connection at night and go to the surf cup on Norderney the next morning. My friend B who wanted to introduce me to the guy came over and we ended up deciding to do it another day cause it got late.
Regarding a lucid dream I had when I was in hardcore PCP psychosis. This experience was terrifying to say the least, so do not expect anything remotely positive to come out of this report. (Remember, trip reports are supposed to include negative experiences too).
