One of My First Excursions Into Inner Space
Nutmeg

DOSE:
1 Tbsp oral Nutmeg (ground / crushed)
BODY WEIGHT: 160 lb
I'm about 15 years old and attending an all boy's boarding school for allegedly emotionally disturbed adolescents in Connecticut. I read about the use of nutmeg by prisoners. Having read some of Ram Dass and Castaneda, I am interested in the use of psychedelics for spiritual and mystical purposes.

7 pm (T+0) - I mix a tablespoon of ground McCormick's nutmeg into a glass of water. I hold my nose and drink it. Disgusting!

10 pm (T+3) - Nothing has happened. I assume nothing will. I go to bed.

2 am (T+12) - I wake up hallucinating. I see a great object that's a cross between the letter T, a tricycle and the number 4.

About 4 am (T+14) - I go back to sleep.

Subtle psychoactive effects last for 3 days.

I realize that nutmeg reaches its peak effect in about 7 hours, and that subtle after-effects last for three days.

Still to come: accounts of higher dosages.

Nutmeg is real. And it's on your granma's shelf.
