I've had a large number of LSD trips at both low and high doses, a few non-breakthrough DMT experiences, one 25C-NBOMe trip, and one 20mg metocin (4-HO-MET) trip before this experience. My friend S wanted to try metocin as her first 'strong' psychedelic. She smoked weed and drank alcohol, but hasn't used any other drugs before. We figured it would be a good idea since metocin doesn't have a very deep headspace and is generally easier to handle than acid, for…
