2CP - - How bad is it?

Allyall

I started hearing about a drug called 2CP in December. Probably been around lot longer than that, but that's when i first heard of it.

At first i was led to believe it was a remnant of the head shops and it was a pun on the name TCP.

I have since heard of a couple of people who got completely out of their heads on it, had a nasty night/next day, and then said it was "beautiful.."

WTF?

Looked into it a little more, and as far as i can make out, it's a form of PCP, and is very addictive.. :mad:
It seems to be aimed at middle class kids that think they're too clever (For lack of any other phrase), to take heroin.
But it is just as destructive.

It's a very toxic hallucinogen, and searching on the internet only comes up with forums/sites that sell it/people who want to try it.

No dosage recommended, unlike a tablet or bag. The measures of it seem to be all over the place, where one person may get 10mg, another may get 30mg for the same price and overdo it.

My opinion would be to kill it in it's tracks, but i don't do any drugs anymore. I stopped a long time ago.
But to me it sounds like the next very very bad thing..

Adults i know taking it with coke, and having bad nights.
Them buying it, is keeping it in stock, for the next generation (Current 15 year olds) to stumble across it, from a dealer that will sell it to them in a heartbeat, and fill them with sh*t.

Am i (hardly), being to uptight, and getting old, or is this going to be a horrible plague, causing homelessness, killing lives, or is it just one of many, and i'm blinded by this one drug?

EDIT..
For the people i know that took it, it lasted well into the next day.

This will go well.

you talking about 2C-B by any chance? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2C-B

edit: just checked it, there in the same chemical group.

Never heard of the drug until now. Certainly sounds bad tho.

Never got the idea of taking all these crazy drugs. Few pints if good enough for me. When you start treading into hallucinogens - I think you should take a long hard look at yourself.

The academic culture in China is all into the use of amphetamines and barbiturates for students. It's also becoming more widespread in the USA. It's all about upping grades. Uppers for study and downers for down-time.

I'm just happy this thread is here because that link let see the phrase "on the street" used on wikipedia in reference to drug slang names. Word up wiki.

So a depressant is fine, whereas a psychodelic means you should take a long hard look at yourself?

Double standards.

The only reason you think alcohol is ok is because it was "normal" when you were growing up. If it was "normal" to snort crushed beetles, and not ingest alcohol, you'd think the same over someone having a vodka or 2.

- just let me decipher what is it.

but I'll say this, if I ever take a hellucinogen again I will ensure to do it in fairer wearer than this... cos when you find ourself out in the fields and that long grass starts glistening, and snaking and the sky is whirling, and raging red and is like the trees are twisting and contorting in the wind ihs just ****ed man......

I Know a few people that have takin 2C-I, along the same lines as 2C-B. I wouldn't be shy of the few narcotics myself but wouldn't go near that. It looked like they were in hell while on it but still would take it every weekend. Judging by over the years, It will be replaced with something else just as bad, if not more harmful soon enough.

I think he means don't do psychodelics on a night like tonight, when it's all stormy, and it could put you on a bad trip.

and if you ever do find yourself out in the trenches, at least pack a poncho

yourself, the world, the beauty around you. look at how the colours dance around and feel sound like you have never heard before.

you suddenly understand that in the overall picture of everything that everything is beautiful, the love you feel for your fellow man and nature as you become like one with both. Your friends become closer than you could ever have imagined you can understand eachother with no need for talking as you all just know exactly what the other person is saying and thinking.

You talk to the universe and it replies.

compare that with chatting sh*te after a few pints and i know what one i'd prefer

Wikipedia can be hip and with it sometimes.

LSD is probably one of the most intelligent, introspective, generally amazing and safest* drugs someone could do.


Alcohol is the exact opposite.


Culture and law might recommend one over the other but you'd be hard pushed to find someone knowledgeable or experienced with both drugs make the same recommendation.

2cb was not my cup of tea. Made me unable to party because i was tripping balls. And it went on and on and on and gave me nausea to fook. Too strong, too sickening, lasts too long. People are doing this every weekend?

LSD's a drug that can become very tiresome after a while and one that can't really be taken in moderation in one setting the way alcohol can. As enjoyable as it may be when you're young, free and single, it's not a drug that's compatible with responsibilities like kids imo. I'd be more than content to stick with my occasional beer these days.

I'm driving a minibus of grannies to a day care centre as we speak, and I'm off my face on 2CP. Great stuff.

Considering this thread was started on the mental ramblings of a drunk..

Although, i feel i was more coherent than i thought i had been when i woke up.

Is 2CP just a hallucinogen? Because the people i saw on it looked terrified and horrified. All vomited, and all looked strung out..
Are they not content with all of the drugs that are already available? I don't get it.
When i was a wee lad, LSD, E, Speed, and Cocaine were considered the hard drugs freely available, with the exception of the latter not being freely available until a little later.

I may have left out one or two, and we also had Mushrooms. Are they not enough? I know a lot of people went ga ga when the headshops were open, but this seems proper scary. Although i couldn't proper say until i tried it, and that's not going to happen.

I guess i'm also a little scared for my nephew, who is hitting 14 this year, and getting closer to the age where this stuff will be introduced to his friends, no doubt by some scumbag that i would do time for beating into small lumps.

There is a drug called 2C-P, and it is potentially dangerous based on the very limited information available on it. But it is incredibly obscure, to the extent that I don't even know anyone who knows anyone that's taken it, nor do I recall reading reading about anyone's experience of the drug. Maybe it has hit the streets in recent times though I seriously doubt it. Searching around various drug forums it hasn't been mentioned at all for the last few years, an if it were increasing in popularity it's highly likely to have been discussed.

2C-B is a far more common designer drug. Not as prevalent as the likes of pills or coke, but as many people as not who are into the clubbing scene will have taken it as some point. But again, it's very unlikely it's the drug to which you're referring. Taken as a pill, 2C-B lasts about 6 hours, 8 tops, and unlike the substance your friends took, the experience it produces is overwhelmingly positive. Like, I've never met anyone who's had a bad time on it. The visuals are intense but it doesn't have the headtrip of acid or mushrooms; you're fairly grounded in reality, albeit a weird and cartoonish one, for the whole experience. Not really suitable for a party environment but then no psychedelics really are.

Neither of these drugs are a "form of PCP," by the way, they are phenethlyamines that are structurally unrelated to angel dust.

So what else is there that could fit the description? Trippy piperazines, DOx chemicals ( somewhat similar in effect to LSD but much longer-lasting). designer drugs like 5-Meo-PCP. All extremely niche, none in widespread use and none particularly addictive.

I'm going to be honest OP, I'd have my ear to the ground more than you when it comes to this kind of thing and you're being led on by some scaremongers. There is no deadly hallucinogen sweeping the streets of Ireland, your 14-year-old nephew is not going to end up injecting it into his testicles and I'd focus my attention more on real and pertinent dangers if I were you, like him getting pissed up down in a field with the wrong crowd.

Ok so there is a 2c-x family of drugs. Each one wackier than the last. Fun times ahead.

Miprocin

Plenty of information as well as experience reports here. Certainly not common, you would need to be in the know to obtain it

anybody else wanna try this shíte after hearing about it on this thread?

thanks op
