TIFU by comically stupid misuse of designer drugs

Submitted by Singaya t3_10o6hq0 in tifu

So by way of foreshadowing, I have this recurring dream where I drop acid and suddenly realize I have to be somewhere and can't get out of it. I spit out the tab but have no idea how much was already absorbed, it's a relief to wake up not on acid.

So I'm drinking, watching videos, and happen across two tabs of AL-LAD, an old favorite that I thought was all gone. How much to take? I'd smoked some psilocybin analogue the night before, tough to know. Did one tab, nice but didn't cut it. 90 minutes later did the other tab but the law of diminishing returns was setting in fast. Unless . . .

Smoking psilocybin powder is wasteful and unpredictable but it hits very fast, worth a try I thought. So I emptied the baggie into my pipe and took a solid hit, . . . next thing I know I'm gagging and sputtering; WTF happened?! I'd dislodged the screen and sucked a huge pile of ash and god knows how much 4-AcO-DMT right into my mouth. By the time I realized the gravity of the situation it was too late. Managed to spit out some of it but this time it wasn't a dream . . . reality was gone and the benzo I keep for emergencies was lost in a sea of hallucinations.

But, that's the beauty of psychedelics, eventually I peaked out and it was awesome. Woke up feeling fine, but that could've been very, very bad.

TL;DR unintentional heroic dose of hallucinogenics.

What is a "designer drug" ? Crack by prada? Is Victoria's secret a meth pipe? Does Louis Vuitton make dime bags now?

Designer drugs are synthetic drugs grown in a lab. They’re usually cheaper and more potent than regular drugs like weed (or in this case DMT), but are less reliable and are generally deemed more dangerous than their counterparts.

Due to the chemicals used, they can be more of a grey market drug that isn't illegal or tested for in some cases.

Truthfully I just said "designer drugs" because few people have heard of research-chemicals. They're a mixed bag but for anyone interested in psychedelics, a reputable online vendor is vastly safer than street drugs.

In this case I was irresponsible but at least it was my choice; LSD bought on the street is often underdosed but can have hot-spots, plus you run the risk of buying really dangerous substitutes like n-bome which can literally kill you. A grey-market tab of AL-LAD will be dosed with exactly 150ug, the vendors are ethically neutral but live or die by their reputation online. (For anyone reading please don't ask me for sources, it's very much against Reddit's rules.)
