Calea zacatechichi

curious to see if anyone has tried this, I just got the liquid extract and am planning on trying it tomorrow night.

I tried it once. Had some of the craziest dreams ever that night. Still don't know if it was from the drug or not cuz I usually end up dreaming every night. Still worth it if you have some though. The only downside is having to take so many pills, or maybe thats Kratom I'm thinking of? Anyway I bought way too many, only ended up using them once and throwing the rest out.

I've tried it, honestly didn't really notice any difference in my dreams. Tried a couple of different methods for a period of time and still nada. Idk it may be up to the person. Not sure if it's placebo or what but Silene Capensis has worked better for me.

Calea has consistent effects on me: 1) much more REM sleep (at the cost of less deep sleep), and 2) dreams morph from one into the next, thereby creating long streams of very confusing dreams.

I strongly advocate not using Calea before bedtime, because it will lead to a substantial loss of deep sleep (which is the part of sleep that allows one to wake rested in the morning). On the other hand, used at WBTB time it works very well to increase the total amount of dreaming (at WBTB time most of the deep sleep is already in the bag).

It also tastes like your worst nightmare, times a thousand. :)

Your right it does taste like ass, lol. That being said I got no effect aside from the fact that I know I dreamed but i was not able to remember anything.

I used to drink it as tea but could not ever finish a cup. So I then put the dried leaves in gel capsules and I take 2 when I WBTB. So far no effect.

I wonder if the liquid form would work quicker for WBTB.

I have heard a good way to do it is to mash the dried form with water and eat 1-2 tsp so I might try that next if I can bear it haha

If you mix the (chopped) leaves into yoghurt, and eat it quickly, the taste doesn't come through - essentially because alle the leaves are coated with yoghurt.
