2C-B + Mushrooms (+ Ketamine) - 2C-B + Mushrooms is the first<br />

<strong>psychedelic</strong> combination I tried that does not work. I had very high hopes<br />

for this combination, along with Ketamine, since at that time both 2C-B and<br />

mushrooms combined spectacularly with Ketamine if taken alone.<br />

(However, I later came to the conclusion that Ketamine should not be<br />

combined with psilocybin or any other natural <strong>psychedelic</strong>.) <strong>The</strong> first time I<br />

tried this combination I took 25 mg. of 2C-B and 5 grams of mushrooms.<br />

Both of these quantities will produce a trip of decent intensity for most<br />

people, but produce only threshold trips for me, due to my high tolerance<br />

and familiarity with the experience. In general my experience was one of<br />

feeling "dopey" or "drugged," a somewhat dumb and unfocused state of<br />

mind.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re was a brief moment in this experience that was lucid and quite<br />

marvelous. During this period the universes of both the 2C-B experience<br />

and the mushroom experience were available simultaneously, as though two<br />

different "parallel realities" were coexisting in the same physical<br />

space-time, and I was able to move about these two universes freely. Based<br />

on this short experience of a unique and useful state of mind, I decided that<br />

the next time I tried this combination I would try a much larger dose of each<br />

substance.<br />

At the time I did my first 2C-B + mushroom journey I was down to my last<br />

dose of Ketamine, with no likely possibilities of obtaining more. <strong>The</strong> most<br />

remarkable portion of this trip came just before I injected my final dose of<br />

K. I decided to sit and meditate on how profoundly my Ketamine<br />

experiences had changed my life, how valuable they had been to me, and<br />

how sacred the opportunity to experience these states of consciousness was.<br />

I also prayed that this mind-altering substance would become available to<br />

me again. Anyway, when I sat to meditate and pray, the energy became so<br />

intense and focused that I was absolutely amazed. My abilities in meditation<br />

and concentration have waned over the past few years, but at that moment I<br />

felt like I could wield my will and mind like Luke Skywalker wields his<br />

light stick in Star Wars. This force was so strong that it was frightening.<br />

After this staggering meditation session I was ready to inject my last dose of<br />

K. This I did, and had a typical Ketamine trip. I would definitely say that it<br />

was less spectacular than my K trips taken in combination with either 2C-B<br />

or mushrooms alone.<br />

<strong>The</strong> second time I tried 2C-B + mushrooms was seven months later. For my<br />

second journey I took 50 mg. of 2C-B and 10 grams of mushrooms, doses<br />

large enough to do the trick for me. However, the experience produced by
