nutmeg, waste of time, or is it?

a couple of friends and i decided to try eating a large amount of the seed called nutmeg. ground in a 62 gram bottle from trader joe's, we injested 3 table spoons or about 20 grams each, and chased it with water. let me tell you nutmeg has the worst taste of anything you will probably have the pleasure of eating. i read on many sites that 5-20 grams, 2 tablespoons, 15 grams, is enough for hellucinegetic and pot-like effects, but 8 hours later i feel nothing, maybe a little change, but not really. anyone have any comments?

nutmeg is an entryway drug, i did it when i was 15 and i'm assuming you're around the same age. you need to ingest whole nutmegs, grind them yourself, not prebought powdered.
if you're looking at getting into psychadelics, nutmeg is like dipping your toes into the toddler piss pool at the greatest water park around.
basically, skip it and try a better ride

ahh ya i didnt really expect to get much, but i have nothing else at the moment so i said what the hell. im 18 and have been smoking the reefer for a good 2 years, taken e a few times. im planning on ordering some 5x salvia when i get my tax return and i cant wait untill shroom season. just some advise to the people on this bored: never try nutmeg, it is a waste of time and maybe even money (if your parents dont just have some in their spice cabinet), you can vomit just from trying to get the sand-like crap down, and im on hour 7 i think i dont really feel anything, a little bit but not really. the most important reason not to take nutmeg is that it has some very bad side effects at high doses.

I wouldn't say Nutmeg is an entry-level psychedelic, but then again I've never done it myself. A good friend of mine took quite a bit, more than 20 grams, and was in a delerious, hallucinogenic state for about 18 hours. The best he said he could describe it, was a DXM trip with some aspects of LSD "hallucinations." After reading some Erowid trip reports as well, it seems like nutmeg can be qutie a trip.
Also, salvia is quite an intense trip to have for your first psychedelic trip. If you "break through" (which is unlikely your first time smoking it, as it appears with many people you must have previously smoked it in order to really "trip"), you will be met with some seriously intense effects, all of which can be quite daunting to the first time psychonaut.

I know of at least one nutmeg overdose. My girlfriend (at the time) consumed an entire normal-sized spice jar of nutmeg (~40-50g?) in a smoothie. Several hours later, she was hospitalized against her will (she lived on a college campus). While in the hospital, she had a heart attack of some kind and needed defibrillation.
That is the only heart attack she's ever had and an investigation after the incident found no irregularities with her heart, so until anyone can prove otherwise, I'm blaming the incident on the pharmacological effects of the nutmeg (and of course her stupidity ; ).

Two friends of mine tried nutmeg... When asking them about the experience one just kind of groaned and said "I swear to god if you're thinking about it I'm going to beat the sense into you". The other said it must be what a meth trip gone horribly wrong must be like (he's never done meth). Afterwards one of them was reported having red eyes for about a week and was just absolutely drained of all energy...
A lot of the time there's a good reason why these drugs aren't used by many people...

wah wah wah. when it comes down to it, I've been able to acheive a high almost indestinguishable from that of cannabis for up to 2 days off of eating nutmeg. I usually eat right before bed use whole nuts and I find that some sort of carbonation really helps choke this shit down.

The first time I did salvia it was with 15x, so you'll be fine. It's only dangerous in the manner that while you're on it you could cause harm to yourself or to others. THat's why I highly recommend having a sitter the first time oyu do it, to make sure you're alright.

it takes a while for the alkaloid myristicin to build up in your system. its similar to methysticin in that way, methysticin being the chemical found in kava which produces most of its hallucinogenic effects.
i tried nutmeg about 4 or 5 times before i finaly got an effect from it. after 6 hours i was left with extreme cottonmouth, red eyes, heavyness, and the the feeling of nausea. the nutmeg flavored burps got old after the first hour, and i had been stuck with nausea since then. at 10 hours after ingestion, i felt extremely drunk and stoned, i was starting to see tracers and hear auditory pitch warps. i would hear a sound and then hear it fade to a lower or higher sound even after it was done ringing. i experienced feelings of happyness, and the wanting to express myself to the world, i felt in touch with everything around me. the visuals were there, but not very pronounced, and were more like blotches of colored light that stuck to my vision, like i had looked at a light and then went into a dark room, only interchanging. at about 12 hours i couldnt stay awake and i fell asleep and slept till the morning. when i woke up, i felt normal, until i stood up where i was greeted by vertigo, my world turned upside down. i felt like i was on an amusement ride going 90mph everywhich way. i puked into my trashcan and layed back down to go to sleep. i slept for most of the day, still feeling slightly dizzy and nauseated. and when i tried to stand up again that night, the same thing happened. at this point i needed to use the bathroom, and eat some food, and most importantly drink some water. but i couldnt walk, i was puking like no other, and everything was spinning around me like a neverending carousel. i went to sleep and woke up the next morning barely able to move from my lack of energy with the whole situation. i wasnt sick anymore so i ate some food and got on with my day. i still had that shitty hungover feeling for almost an entire week.
in conclusion: it may be fun while your up, but when you come down, and the possible long-term effects, really isn't worth it. if your looking to experience the nutmeg high without ingesting nutmeg, order some kava root from the island of kadavu, and drink 4 or 5 tanoa's to yourself. but as stated before, these alkaloids need to build up for a while before they begin to work.
good luck stay safe

Funny thing today, This guy at work was telling another that nutmeg was another form of LSD. I almost fell out of my chair. I tried to correct him but was quickly put down by him with his superior intellect.
What did that Queen say, "Let them eat nutmeg"?
Whatever man.

nutmeg is icky. nothing quite like a pounding heart, blurred vision, the room spinning and rocking, nausea, and poor motor control.
it's like drinking rubbing alcohol. your consuming a poison, not intended to be injested in quantity, To get high. Only to find it stronger on the "toxicating" side and very weak on the "inebriating" side than the standard corrosponding substance.
I tried nutmeg once when I was 19, It worked. I wouldn't call it a "Drug" but if I did, it would be the least enjoyable of all "drugs" ive ever done.
ANd that quality of unenjoyment lingers for a long time.
