Nbombe First Experience

It was a Sunday morning when my husband and I chose to take the blotters. We took them at approximately 12pm sublingually.

The first thing that I noticed was the really bitter taste. After about 30 minutes I chewed on the blotter, it felt like the tip of my tongue was going numb, then I swallowed it. We had an apple each and made sure we had some snacks and water ready.

Nothing really happens for the next 30 minutes. Then I start taking the washing from the machine to hang them out to dry. I started feeling a bit weird and looked up. The roof of my house felt really close almost my height, which is 5 ft. I realized the trip is about to commence. So I go to sit under our tree in the backyard. It just felt really good listening to the wind and the rustling of the leaves. Nothing incredible yet just a relaxed feeling and amplified sounds. I started feeling sick, same with my husband
I started feeling sick, same with my husband
so I made myself some toast with nutella and I made him muesli. He felt even more sick, while I felt a bit more settled down. We lied down most of the time just looking at the sky. I had visuals which were pretty amazing when I had my eyes closed. Just had my eyes closed while I was facing the sun and I just saw this really intense patterns of colour starting with red, then orange, yellow, then green. I love purple but that is the only colour that I didn’t get to see when I closed my eyes.

There seems to be a lot of instances during the trip that I felt sick and uneasy. And lying down seemed to be the best thing to do during these moments. I did enjoy walking around the garden when I am sick of lying down, it felt really heavy to walk it was a flat path but it felt like I was going up a hill. I noticed the birds flying over our backyard for the first time. We had pelicans, and just flocks and flocks of birds flying around every now and then. The first batch just looked like they were bathed with this golden light, and so close I can see their feet. In one of my many walks in the garden during this trip, I have noticed one of the trees. I just focused on the trunk, and it looked like the tree was twisting. This made me feel sick after about 5 minutes so I stopped and continued my walk. Then another plant caught my eye. It had these needle like leaves, not a pine, but it’s more like a bush but with long needle like leaves. It felt like they were moving close to my face and the colours are turning into this bright green. As I looked, I just started noticing these tiny tiny heart shaped leaves that looked like they were slowly growing from the stem right before my eyes. And there were just heaps and heaps of them. I had to look away because it was getting too much for me. So I look at this gum tree which was in the middle of the garden. It looked like it was bleeding with what looked like dried blood. I didn’t get scared on the other hand it looked really beautiful. Again the tree seemed to be twisting again, it started making me feel sick so I had to lie down for a bit. We moved our little blanket next to the gum tree and this is where we saw the birds. Birds seem to love flying over our little backyard and I think even without tripping they would look incredible. We hallucinated together as well, when we saw a flock of birds, they looked really tiny because they were flying really high, but then we saw they had 2 sets of wings instead of just one.

The intensity of the hallucinations started to get weaker at this point which was around 3 hours from time of taking the blotter. I just sat on a chair and just waited to see the flock of birds. Then a flock of what seemed to be a hundred of these birds just started flying in like an upward twisting spiral, like a helix. The sun was shining on the formation and it almost looked like tiny stars, like a constellation only it’s moving.

The come down started around 4pm, I can still see some shades of purple when I look at the edges of leaves or the trees. I start feeling hungry but didn’t make dinner until around 6pm. We were both feeling sick at this point, and had a shower together. I scrubbed my husband’s back and just noticed how red his back was and it looked so red as if it was bleeding. We just lied down for the next hour in bed. During this time, it felt like my lungs were being squeezed, it didn’t hurt but it was uncomfortable. I start making dinner when I felt better. After dinner, around 6:30 I felt a constriction in the epigastric area which went away in about 10 minutes. There seems to be this detachment that lingered all through out the trip. When I had the proper acid 3 years ago, the connection to nature was more palpable. And I never felt sick during or after the trip.

I must say that I did enjoy nbomb, but nothing compares to the real thing.
