DOSE:
25 mg oral 4-AcO-DMT (powder / crystals)
    repeated smoked Cannabis (plant material)
BODY WEIGHT: 210 lb
[Erowid Note: Two samples of powder (even of the same chemical) with equivalent volumes won't necessarily weigh the same. For this reason, eyeballing is an inaccurate and potentially dangerous method of measuring, particularly for substances that are active in very small amounts. See this article on The Importance of Measured Doses.]
This experience started off at about midnight. My friends J, T and I had decided to go out shrooming becuase it had been raining quite a bit at the time. We had all decided that if we didn't find any shrooms that we would just dose with the 4-aco and still have a good time. We didn't have a microgram scale, so I weighed up .2 on T's scale and split that up into 8 equal parts. The scale wouldn't register .1. After I did this, I decided to go ahead and dose myself before we left to get an idea of the purity and potency.

So, I dissolve my dose in a cup of water and down the hatch it goes. There is a slight chemical taste, but nothing too overwhelming. J, T and I get in the car and head to the field. We go in my car, but J drives us to avoid any mishaps with me. We have about a thirty to forty minute drive, half of which is on the interstate. About fifteen minutes in, I start to notice that the light from street lamps is sort of dancing on my dashboard as the light pass through my slightly fogged window. At this point, I began to think to myself that I cant already be tripping, I was wrong. Within another ten or so minutes as we were getting off the interstate, I start to notice that the roads are narrowing severely and I am having quite of trouble telling where I am, even though I've been to this field over fifty times, easily.

By the time we stop and park, I feel like I can hardly see. All the darkness had become a world of color that I couldn't possibly hope to see through. We walk for a while, and after coming up empty-handed, we finally leave. I had doubts about going into the field when we first got there, but by this point, I wanted nothing more than to leave. I kept thinking about how I had nowhere to go but up, and that started freaking me out. But, we finally leave. J asks if we can get a two liter before we got back to his house, and I obliged. When we got to the gas station, I was sweating profusely. It was about one in the morning at this point. It takes J and T what seems like a life time, but it was about five minutes. By this point, I am nearly useless.

When we finally get back to J's house, I immediately stripped my clothes off and layed down in the dark. T asks me if I want to smoke a bowl at this point, which I immediately refused. I layed in the dark about forty five minutes, having one of the most intense experiences of my life. I started to think about my life, then about my family and friends. I then started thinking about mt parents, who are deceased. At this point I began to weep for them, and I think a bit for myself. After this, I felt extremely good and happy and I felt an extreme desire to be with my friends in the other room. I got dressed and joined them to find it a was only 2. J was playing Mass Effect 3 while T watched. They ended up only doing half what I did, but I wasn't in the room for it. They dosed at about 1:15. When J's dose started to hit him, he took out Mass Effect and we put in season two of Workoholics, which we watched all of while smoking a bit of pot periodically.

All in all, it was a great time, something I'll definitely be repeating with the exception of going into the field.
