Meeting Mystra (trip reports)
No two trips are alike…
Studious_Redux:
The only time I used nutmeg with any seriousness was purely as an experiment into it’s effects. I wasn’t looking to it as a substitute for another drug or because I’d run out of anything, but because I’d heard it had some interesting effects and I wanted to give it a whirl. This was around ten years ago, I was 21, 165lbs. Dose was 20 whole nutmegs, freshly ground and ingested on an empty stomach.
The ingestion was far from pleasant, but I was suprised it wasn’t as bad as the horror stories. i just gulped the stuff down with some water. I have quite a high threshold for nausea but the taste became very overwhelming after a while and made me feel extremely sick, although I didn’t vomit. i pulled a single leaf off of one of my brugmansias and chewed that while I was waiting for the effects to quell the nausea which it did very effectively. After that point, despite intermittent abdominal pain I had no more real nausea.
It took a looong time to kick in. I thought waiting for mescaline was bad, this took hours, and hours, and hours. I guess I started feeling effects at around t+3 hrs but they were subtle, rising slowly over the next few hours. The effects were initially slightly stimulating but with a very heavy body load and an intoxicated feeling, not un-marajuana like but much more mentally cloudy. Neither was it entirely unpleassant.
Things really started to kick in at around t+8hrs. The body load continued but the stimulation actually kicked up a gear I felt more inclined to do something other than lay on the couch and feel odd, and decided to go for a bit of a walk. Limbs felt slightly rubbery, I was getting some faint MDMA like tracers from bright lights and my co-ordination was off, but I wasn’t a stumbling mess, I could walk coherently.
Mentally I was still feeling a bit on the disorientated side, kind of like reality and my place in it didn’t really sync. It took me a long time at the corner shop to buy some cigarettes due to my inability to find my wallet, count out money and decide just what I want, despite the fact I’ve smoked the same brand since my early teens. I carried on walking through a local park and up a steepish hill to watch the sun set. My mind was wandering, I felt just ever so slightly trippy, again, like MDMA but without much of the empathogenic side of things and less euphoria.
At around T+13 I found the stimulation was definitely wearing off, the body load was becoming overwhelming and I was feeling really tired, I also needed a crap and I was incredibly thirsty so I wandered the few miles back home. On looking at the mirror in the hall I noticed that I was really flushed looking and had red eyes with dilated pupils. I collapsed on the couch, drank a litre of water and a few beers, shared a strong joint with my mrs and drifted into an uncomfortable disturbed nights sleep with vivid dreams and frequent awakening.
The next day, probably t+26 hours I woke up properly and felt pretty much back on baseline mentally, although physically pretty hungover and unpleasant, this feeling persisted for much of the next day and made work unpleasant.
Positives: Reasonable stimulation, some positive visual aspects, pleasant mental cloudiness, some limited euphoria, vivid dreaming.
Neutral: Duration of experience, time to come up.
Negative: Strong body load, physically unpleasant feeling, long hangover, less than pleasant ingestion.
As a postscript, I was also jaundiced a few days later, and upon going to the hospital I was found to have had an acute decline in liver function which righted its self after three days. However, This may have been due to my relatively recent malaria. However I don’t think the large dose of nutmeg helped.
