DOSE:
4 leaves oral Pituri (freebase)
BODY WEIGHT: 70 kg
I grabbed a branch off a plant, which I found growing in rows in a paddock. Later that evening I ate a medium / average sized leaf.

About half an hour I felt a bit unsteady, a bit giggly. Then plateaued a bit. So I ate another 2 of the same leaves, plus one very small leaf (appr9x 2cm x 2cm). Within half an hour I had a very dry mouth and was feeling pretty wobbly. I couldn't eat, had absolutely no appetite. Approx 2 hours and I was seriously intoxicated. I felt totally smashed, relaxed and giddy but really unsteady, absolutely no short term memory. I'd start a conversation and just go nowhere - have no recall of what I'd just said. Jittery, pounding heart. I was meant to be having dinner with my parents at their place, it was not a good setting. I'd perhaps have enjoyed slightly if I were in the right setting with the right people.

Had taken similar about 10 years ago, definitely had the loss of memory but don't recall being that totally incapacitated. I'm not sure if this is how it was consumed ritually; I've read of drying the leaves and chewing with a white ash. Or if it was toxicity that I went through. Funny experience overall but a bit of a struggle at times.
