Thursday evening, around 7:00 pm, my friend and I indulged in the mescaline HCl I extracted from 100 grams of San Pedro powder. I swallowed 700 milligrams and my friend 400. He was not significantly affected, but reported feeling stimulated up until we parted ways. Having never experienced mescaline, I don't know where to rate the intensity of my trip, but it would have only been moderate at best.
It took a minimum of an hour and a half for me to enter the threshold of the trip, which I can only describe as mild euphoria. My visuals were not spectacular, but nothing looked normal. This was not the change in my vision that I have experienced with tryptamines, but more like MDMA if the intensity turned down. In fact, I would describe the trip as a longer lasting, less-intense MDMA experience. My pupils were blown, which is an observation I like to make in order to confirm that a chemical is taking effect. I felt like I was on the brink of something as the trip peaked, but of what I don't know. Certainly I was not afraid of what that "something" was and would like to have gone deeper at the time, but 24 hours later I have mixed feelings about the experience.
The mescaline made it incredibly difficult to sleep that night (obviously) and it wasn't until midday Friday that I finally got some rest. I attribute my lethargy to the lack of sleep, but I'm confident the mescaline is responsible for the headaches I've experienced over the past 24 hours. As absurd as this might sound, I can count on one hand the occasions that I've suffered from headaches in my life, none of which I've ever sought relief from. This is bearable, but far from something I care to deal with again. As I recall I found it very hard to concentrate during the trip, and was struggling to follow the conversation with my more sober friend. Also, I felt that the trip lasted too long for my liking, not unlike LSD.
Anyway, I have 100 grams of cactus powder left. If I were to perform another extraction, would it be best to take all of the mescaline as an individual dose? Or is extraction not the recommended route?
