about 2 weeks ago I came across a source (a very, VERY long way away!) who was able to send me 2 free 5mg samples of DOI. On Tuesday night, the package arrived. My buddy rang me and and said it had come, and said he'd be here soon with a couple more friends. They bought a carton of beer and the envelope containing the DOI.
Upon arrival, my friend Dee told me that he wanted his oter Friend, MD, to have some of the DOI with us. I had read in Shulgin's report that he would probably take DOI at a dose of around 3.2 mg, we had 10 mg, so I thought there should be enough for 3 doses.
We cut the bags open and poured what we could of the powder onto a surface. It was more sticky in texture than I had imagined, so we scraped what we could into a glass of water, and dropped the packages in the water, stirring them around to wash all of the powder out of them. This took a while, but eventually it worked, and Dee and I stuck the two packages in our mouths to suck the remaining shite out of them. We shared the glass of water between us at around 9:30 pm, apparently I had the largest amount, but I thought it was pretty even. We sat around, sipping beer here and there, I eventually got sick of the beer and just waited for the drug to take hold. I had read on erowid that it was a Psychedelic Phenethylamine, thus I thought it would be probably pretty cool. I didn't really take much notice of the 'amphetamine' part in the name :P.
The first signs came around 11:00, I got a weird sensation of things moving away, but not strong enough.I couldn't feel much and just realised that the drug had probably started to kick in. We wandered around some nature reserves and an old quarry for a while, just waiting for the drug to take hold. My brother and another friend, C, had gotten really pissed, so they were enjoying themselves. Eventually, we gave up and just lit a fire and chilled under the stars. I couldn't help but feel this weird sensation coming over me like I couldnt' quite focus on my surroundings, I have generally good night vision, but it was hard to make out objects. They appeared fuzzy. I also read that music was good to listen to, I noticed that although my senses felt different, my headspace did not. I could still think very clearly and make rational decisions. It would be safe to say this drug would be good to work or drive on, concentration is very high. About 11:30, I noticed my jaw was clenching. REAL bad. Worse than any MDMA tablet I had ever had. My teeth were held together and my jaw muscles were not releasing at all. This was annoying after a while, and my mouth really started to hurt.
Dee and MD felt the same as well, but MD had a real bad tooth (bums rubbed away to expose sharp edges of tooth) and his clenching was so bad that he was slicing his gums on the edges of his tooth.
We tried to chill out, keeping the fire going, so I put my mp3 player and started listening to Shpongle "Are you Shpongled?". As soon as I put the headphones on, the sky lit up like the Northern Lights, and flickering was happening. The stars were slightly circling each other, and we all witnessed an amazing meteorite shower. Upon looking at stars, they weren't moving, but if you concentrated on one, then all the others would start moving around them, and the sky was lighting up real brightly and flashing almost as if it were actually happening. I remember seeing light whizz past me, as if someone were behind me scanning a torch over us from a long distance. The ground was also vibrating and moving with the sound of the music, but my jaw was so hard clenching that it was hard to enjoy it. There was no weird thoguhts, but we had some interesting conversations about our friendships. At about 2:30, the drug was still going really strong. my guess is we had about 3.3 mg each (if it were divided) and Shpongle was really good to listen to to help take my mind off the drug. The visuals weren't that intense yet, but they later would. We decided to drive into town to get some water and munchies to get the horrid taste out of our mouths and some chewing gum to give our jaws something to do. We then drove to the top of a hill overlooking the city, and sat there for an hour or so talking and enjoying the view. The city lights were not moving much, but changing colour a lot. Eventually, we had to take my brother home, as he had school the next day. We dot home, and my brother went to bed, but mum was awake and had a loud argument with my brother about being responsible. He tol her to shut the fuck up and she went to bed, and me and my 3 friends went into my bedroom to watch TV.
We sat down, and it was about 4:10am. I was still going really strong, The pictures drawn on my wall were dissolving into the white paint, completely disappearing and then appearing again really quickly. Every individual line disappeared on its own, faded, disappeared then faded back in. It was really intersting to see, as I'd never had this on any other drug. The patterns on the mattress were doing a kind of shroomy 'pearlscent' paint thing, shimmering and fading. My friends didnt have this at all , so we agreed that I'd obviously had a lot more than everyone else. Eventually, our laughter went from fun, happy laughing to psychotic, scary laughing where nothing was funny, and we were laughing like sick fucks, at nothing. Not happy looking laughs at all. We looked twisted and derranged. Really shit. We stayed awake all night until around 6:30, then we drove back into town to get some food. I had work that day at 9:00, and I felt really horrible. I had this huge clump of cigarette tar stuck in the back of my throat and it wasn't coming out. Every time I swallowed i could feel the salive and food struyglling to get past it. All our mouths were real clenchy still, and MD had some serious dental issues. Eventually it was time for me to go to work. I drove there and was still feeling like I'd probably taken acid the night before, but with a clenched jaw. I noticed at work that I was working really fast, but not enjoying it, and time went by relatively quickly. I worked pretty well, but sweated a LOT. Never like before, I had trouble keeping water up. The grid on the floor was moving and bending and started looking like the floor was just made out of pillows, (this was shit because I had to make sure the floor was flat :P) At the end of the day, I was still feeling horrible. No sleep, hard ass work, and no food. I got home, had a shower and went out for some cones. When I had the weed, I just felt even worse, tired and horrible. I went around 42 hours without sleep which is more than I've ever had.
Overall, I would say that this drug is like taking speed (the awakeness), having a quarter dose of LSD (the visuals) and having the jaw clenching of ecstacy, but REALLY bad. I thought it would have just been better to have some LSD.
The effects lasted probably 16 hours, but had a peak of around 6 hours. (12:00 - 6:00) It took around 3 hours for first signs. I'd say if you want to take this, it's probably best you put a whole weekend aside for recovery. I wouldn't say I didn't enjoy it, just badly planned. I wouldn't do it again, personally, I'd much prefer the popular psychedelics (shrooms, acid). I still plan on taking 2c-i, 5-meo-dmt, 2c-e, 2ct7 etc, but would stay away from the DO- range. DOB was NOT much fun either. I'm still recovering mentally from this drug, I feel scattered and still even look a bit fucked up (eyes dazed, etc)
Conclusion: Have some DOI and stay the fuck awake all night doing not much but having sick fantasies and relapsing. There are plenty other drugs that you can have fun on.
