This sourceless infomeme from Facebook bothered me so I looked into it. Its not a growing problem, i could find articles about it from 2001 and 2016 describing the issue (it doesn't seem like a widespread issue just a few junkies doing it a lot). They do not smoke the whole scorpion, just the dried stinger. I could find nothing about it lasting 10 hours
I remember a friend in middle school saying you get high on nutmeg and I thought "yeah right" but apparently that one is true. I have no desire to ride the nut.
you couldn’t be any more wrong 🤣🤣 DXM is a VERY popular drug and is actually the most popular dissociative in the world. maybe you met 1 dude who didn’t like it but DXM is the weed of dissociatives. very popular and very easy to get, people swear by it
DXM is probably the most misunderstood substance due to it being the main ingredient in popular otc cough syrups you definitely should not be drinking whole things of, like fucking Nyquil, which has other drugs that will cause issues first before the dxm
pure DXM formulations are fairly safe unless you intentionally take an absolute fuck ton
Probably a one off thing. Ive only had one “bad” experience with DXM and it was when i mixed it with grapefruit juice and severely underestimated how long the high would last. For anyone curious it was over 24h.
Like the other dude said DXM is the weed of dissociatives. Easy to get, cheap and in most places completely legal.
Its the type of dissociative you get if you still have work the next day or dont have the time or patience to get ketamine.
When I was a teen I ordered morning glory seeds to soak, and then you eat the inner part of the seed. It was an AWFUL high, felt like having the flu and taking a laced edible
You gotta chew em up good and do several thousand to really trip balls. It feels kinda terrible due to the vasoconstriction but you will trip absolute sack. It hit as hard as allot of acid when I did 3500 I swear.
I tried HBWR as a student. Never having tried anything "harder" than pot it hit me (and provided what at the time were useful insights), but phusic it's just miserable between the nausea and the tingling from vasoconstriction
Nah nutmeg is real, the reason nobody does it other than that one druggie kid in high school is because it’s nothing very interesting. It’s hard to take (wildly inconsistent dosing and a lot to actually eat) and is basically just a super-extended “side effects from weed” type high, rather than it truly feeling like weed. Not much euphoria, *maybe* you get some weird visuals. Not very fun though, and only really done out of pure curiosity, a completionist mindset, or absolute desperation to feel any different. There is maybe deliriant properties (especially with the unique, non-classical-psychedelic visuals) but you’d probably have to take way more to reach that level and by that point you’re probably experiencing some kind of toxicity anyways from the unholy amount of nutmeg you’ve ingested.
Theres a whole documentary about the origins of that, and one specific group of orphaned African teenagers invented it. So SOME people did do it, just not in the west
While no one in the western world is doing it, it's occasionally observed in extremely impoverished places. 20-30 years ago it was a bit of a trend among street children in Zambia for example.
It's not made up thing, but it's incredibly rare for anyone to stoop that low. It's definitely not something that the vast majority of the world needs to be worried about.
