      Nutmeg

      i dont know if any of you know this... if anybody does, blulanou probably does, since he seems to know everything about every kind of drug... but yesterday i discovered that if you eat a couple tablespoons of nutmeg (the spice) it is a strong halucinagen that lasts for a couple of days, and induces a coma-like sleep.. well, if anybody knows about this, i was wondering if it helps lucid dreams and the such. i plan on trying it some time this week.

      yucky

      Nutmeg will get you high, but it's not what you're thinking.

      it's usually a prison drug, or one of desparation. All you will get out of it is some sorta stoneish downed feeling and possibly a vision, maybe. The problem is that it's easy to overdose on when you want to take it to get really high. there are better things out there.

      get some shrooms
      some good buds
      some lsa

      lsa is legal, you can buy morning glories, shave their poisonous skins off then boil 'em down in a tea to ingest them wholly. Just get all the skin off or you'll end up puking for hours. It will give you a substancial trip with weed, or salvia dinovorum, another legal that is smoked in mass quatities as a hallucinogen.

      but nutmeg is fruitless
      don't try it ::

      or there's always dxm
      that was my intro to lucidity
      but the third and fourth plateus are not for the faint of heart


      happy tripping

      ps- puking isn\'t so bad on hallucinogens, it\'s double exposure...and don\'t dex if you\'re native american descent

      Dreamcoil:

      Ok... so blu is sort of right.

      First off... if you expect to be able to go to the store and eat some ground nutmeg and get all fucked up... it's not going to work. You have to buy a fresh, whole nutmeg, and ground it yourself for it to REALLY work.

      However... I would not recommend it. Blu is right... it is easy to OD on it, for one, for two it's not fun any ways.

      My friend ate a shitload of some fresh nutmeg, and smoked some too, and this is what he experienced:

      "I kept seeing shit out of the corner of my eye, and it was really weird and starting to piss me off. Then, all of a sudden, I got very anxious feeling, and my heart started to beat real fast. I started to freak out and I thought I was having a heart attack. I sort of passed out for a minute, and then came to and I saw a strange man at my window. I then sort of had to sleep for awhile. I kept passing in and out of consciousness(or so I thought) until I awoke feeling really shitty. I had a godawful headache and felt like shit for about a day, maybe longer."

      I've done almost everything... but fuck nutmeg, dude. That sounds like a real hassle and a load of shit.

      If your interested in experimenting with certain hallucinogens, there are much better, safer, and more fun ones.

      Originally posted by Wikipedia

      It has also been suggested that in small doses, nutmeg can be a trigger for lucid dreaming. Author and ecopsychologist Paul Devereux says that taking up to 2 teaspoons of ground nutmeg before going to bed can induce lucid dreams. He also suggests starting with between 1/2 - 1 teaspoon for a couple of weeks and move up to 2 teaspoons if it is still not working. It should be noted that Devereux warns against using the nutmeg for such purposes regularly because of health risks; also, once a lucid dream has been achieved, use of nutmeg should be stopped. Furthermore, Devereux warns that nutmeg should not be used for this purpose unless you are confident that your body is in a healthy state, and that nutmeg is a safe option for you.

      Goodness... and to believe that I would have gone and took nutmeg tonight just to see if it'd help with controlling LDs, that stuff sounds like shit. I rather have another CVS attack right now than suffer from that crap.

      It&#39;s not, I&#39;ve tried it..... The most I&#39;ve tried is 3 tablespoons...

      Way back when, women would take it to kill their babies... and yea, it&#39;s mostly a prison drug.... Only for the extremely desperate.

      I suppose my contribution to this topic could be a topic in and of itself ...
      But a few things to offer:

      There are much safer and intense ways to experience visuals than Nutmeg, or Morning Glory
      for sure. My suggestion would be Salvia Divinorum. It&#39;s not toxic. No one has ever OD&#39;d on it.
      The visionary state it produces last 3-20 min depending on the method of ingestion. The visuals
      are the closest thing to Lucid dreaming you will ever experience.

      I&#39;ve been lucid dreaming for about 8 months, with 46 such experiences. Personally, I think
      my several times per week usage of salvia has contributed to that success. Much like a dream
      state, a salvia induced vision can be very jumpy and hard to remember. You can use salvia
      as a tool to master focus and recall in a non-conscious/awake state. The better you get at staying
      lucid and remembereing the details of your salvia vision, the better you will get at staying
      focused in your dream state. If you&#39;ve ever read on the topic of Tibetan dream yoga, this is
      somewhat analogous to not getting swept away by your karmic traces.

      I&#39;ve been meaning to experiment some with the possibilty of Salvia helping to induce WILDS.
      It seems intuitive that it might?

      Enjoy.

      PS, if you have no idea what salvia is and you want to try, educate yourself first, it is by no means
      a simple, non-overpowering experience. It ain&#39;t pot&#33;

      It most certainly is not&#33;

      Much more intense... wow&#33; That is a great idea, I&#39;m surprised I haven&#39;t thought of it before.

      wow, I&#39;m still dumbfounded by your idea.....

      Here&#39;s a link to clear up any confusion about Salvia:

      Glad you find the idea useable. I have a variety of theories and ideas I&#39;ve been experimenting
      with, and will be posting as I assess their usability.

      The other tool I&#39;ve been using to increase focus and experiment with lucidity in deep trance
      like states is meditating to the "brainsuites CD&#39;s". Any of the delta or theta wave CD&#39;s will
      help coax your brain into a deep trance/light visionary state with lots of hypnagogic imagery.
      Check out the New Age section at your local Boarders. These are great - and cheap too at &#036;12 per.
      Initially, these will tend to put you to sleep. With practice, you will stay very lucid even in the deepest
      meditative state. Though I haven&#39;t seen anyone write on the subject, I am fairly convinced that I
      occasionally slip into stage 1 or 2 sleep during this process - wo/ losing conscious awareness.

      The eorwid link above probably has a lot of good experiential reports, etc... The best general
      reference for Salvia is:

      www.sagewisdom.org

      The users guide is a must read from the perspective of safety and understanding how to respect
      and appreciate the experience. The guy who maintains the site discovered the psycho-active
      consituent of the plant. Good mix of practical knowledge and science.

      Enjoy

      I once ate almost 30 grams of nutmeg...which sucked. its so dry and strong...ugh.

      I didn&#39;t hallucinate

      my stomache hurt

      The only noticeable thing was I got really sleepy and fell asleep on the floor. This was store bought nutmeg, I&#39;ve heard if you get the actual plant from nature it works better.

      DXM is the stuff found in cough syrup. ^.^ I use it sometimes to help me get to sleep (NyQuil usually) and it helps a bunch (for me) with lucid dreaming.
