@TheWabiSabi I, uh, hear that 120-130mg is a great dose, followed by a 60-70mg booster taken at about T+2.5-3hrs. (It can be nice to have the option of the booster pre-weighed out and available as an option.)
There’s a lot of information available about supplements and aftercare.
If you want to keep it simple, magnesium glycinate is great for during and after the experience, and 5-HTP & melatonin can be nice after the experience.
Important: Only take 5-HTP *after* the experience. Taking it before dosing risks serotonin syndrome; I know two ppl who got serotonin syndrome by making this mistake.
@GorbaganaChain Netherlands, got the pills tested by GGZ (national mental health institute, which offers this for free)
120mg is about the dose used in the US clinical trials.
It’s possible to get the general effects of a stimulant without the unique properties of MDMA if you take too little.
I’d suggest at least 90-110 mg. (Plus the option of a +50% booster.)
@TheWabiSabi this week a lot of my coworks called me like a coworker who left the company a year ago because I looked like him. The name sticked after an office party.
@TheWabiSabi think about this a lot, but financially it's just not smart. Maybe if I find a good deal but sceptical....
@TheWabiSabi still living at my parents, waiting for my 3rd paycheck to start the hunt for a new place, so this is going to be tight
@TheWabiSabi voting gone be a little challenging this year. Need to vote in a city I'm not staying at the moment but will make it work
