Background information:

- Sex: male
- Age: 28
- Weight: 75 kg
- Setting: at home, accompanied by a good friend and an old tripping buddy of mine
- Medication: 20 mg telmisartan, not medically necessary but taken for improved vascular health and other benefits. It’s also been extremely helpful for PEA-related headaches. 4 grams of l-Citrulline 30 minutes before dosing.

Influenced by a recent Reddit post about MXE, I felt a strong urge to revisit the substance. I had one last ~30 mg dose of lab-tested MXE left, which I had saved for a special occasion. I knew 30 mg of this old batch would likely be too little to fully enjoy on its own, so I decided to combine it with a psychedelic.

After going through many Bluelight threads and old Reddit discussions about MXE combinations, I eventually settled on a lysergamide. I texted my good friend and former tripping partner (let’s call him X) and asked if he wanted to join.

ALD-52 tartrate (150 μg, sublingual) + MXE HCl (30 mg, oral) / Report:

T:00:00: -
I place 1.5 blotters of ALD-52 under my tongue. There’s no taste, maybe a slight fizzing sensation, though that could be my imagination. I briefly wonder if the tabs lost potency over the years, they are seven years old at this point.

T:00:20: +
First alerts. I swallow the blotters with some magnesium water. My body feels lighter, my mind calmer. A warm sensation is spreading across my temples. Tension is arising in my body and I am in a playful mood.

T:00:38: ++
The doorbell rings, my buddy X is here! Perfect timing, the effects are ramping up. We sit on the couch and catch up on life. I am stimulated and talkative, excited for what‘s to come. X joins as a trip-sitter. He hasn’t tripped in about three years due to a severe burnout from work, which came with debilitating physical symptoms like extreme tension, muscle stiffness, rigidity and pain that has rendered him unable to work for over 1.5 years. He‘s been improving steadily for the last year or so and he managed to get a lot of life quality back, but still avoids substances that could increase bodily awareness. He decides to take a 200mg capsule of pregabalin.

T:01:00: ++
I can feel the work-out from yesterday, my muscles are sore. I feel pain in one of my right toes, which I broke two weeks ago. My vision starts to shift ever so slightly. I wonder why the come-up of ALD-52 feels smoother compared to LSD-25 or 1P-LSD. Maybe it’s just in my head. I need to stop overanalyzing.

T:01:30: ++
The peak is unfolding, I‘m surprised the visual effects are so mild. The most prominant aspects of the trip are the headspace and the bodyload.

T:02:15: +++
We start talking about taste perception and how some things are disgusting to one person but tolerable to another and how conditioning might come into play. X mentions how he absolutely hates the taste of kratom, how it makes him gag almost every time he drinks it while I don‘t really mind it. A different example would be my ethanolic amanita muscaria tincture which tastes absolutely vile to me but not to him. He recalls alcohol-filled chocolate sweets his grandma used to eat that remind him of the tincture and suddenly pulls one out of his backpack. He unwraps it and holds it under my nose. I burst into uncontrollable laughter. It does not smell at all like the tincture. This is so ridiculous. I had tears in my eyes thinking about the fly agaric mushroom and its awful taste. I laughed about the idea that people just disregard its aposematic color and make a tincture out of it. This laughing fit continues for what feels like ten minutes.

T:03:00: +++
The GI issues induced by the ALD-52 are seemingly worse than the last time I took it. My stomach hurts, I am bloated and I keep using my heating pad. I feel like I need to eat something. X and I decide to order food. It takes forever for me to decide what I want, so he eventually orders for me.

T:03:45: +++
The food arrives. My appetite is suppressed and I only manage to eat about a third of it, but it tastes great. Unfortunately, it does not help my stomach. The visuals have been quite mild so far, but I have not really been paying attention. When I look at the door, it suddenly warps with some geometry appearing. Nothing too crazy, but a reminder of how quickly things can change.

T:04:30: +++
The GI side effects ease up after going to the restroom. I manage to eat a bit more. The effects have settled into the plateau phase. X and I suddenly get an intense craving for a scoop of stracciatella ice cream in a cone, but neither of us feels like going out to look for an ice cream parlor. It feels absurd. Usually you only end up getting ice cream because someone else suggests it and you just go along with it. But now that we actually want it, ice-cream is nowhere to be found.

T:05:15: ++
The effects are very manageable now, I tell X that I am going to drink the MXE I had saved up. I dissolve the pre-weighed 30mg of powder in water and down it. I am nervously excited.

T:05:30: +++
The MXE starts working, my limbs feel strange. My body becomes warm and the euphoria builds up quickly. Suddenly my mindset shifts and I feel a strong sense of nostalgia. I look at X and say out loud, this is it, this is the ultimate drug combination, nothing will ever come close to this.

The two drugs synergize so well they merge into one entity. The bodyload and gastrointestinal issues I have been dealing vanished in an instant, the electric stimulation turned into a comfortable, numb sedation. I am calm and collected, my thinking is crystal clear.

I feel like I have unlocked something. Like I have opened Pandora’s box and discovered something fundamental. So few people will ever know what it‘s like to feel so pure. Why is MXE illegal? Because it is simply too good. This is the drug for the elite of this world. I grab the small vial it was stored in, lick it dry and rinse it out and half-jokingly tell him that I have tasted the forbidden fruit. The mania is in full effect, I am not talking anymore, I am now preaching. I can‘t even hear a word X is saying, all I want is to talk about how godly this feeling is. I am sad that I don‘t have anymore of this illusive material left. I want every one of my friends to experience this. My senses are maximized, I can hear bird sounds that seem like they are wrapping around me and coming from different angles like in a movie theater with a surround system. My trip sitter remarks my sudden glow. I feel like Thanos, I am the definition of aura. I carry power in each finger tip and I can create art in an instant.

06:15: +++
I have experienced mania on a few occasions but this one is up there with things like my 3-MeO-PCsBu and 3-MeO-PCP experiences, or my last trip with DOB. I am walking over to the fridge to grab myself a glass of orange juice and it‘s like I am having a continuous eureka moment, like a light bulb is switching on over my head. I am telling X that I would love to have a huge pile of MXE to test if we would be able to create something revolutionary while we lock ourselves away in a hut in the mountains for a month taking MXE every day. I remain rational enough to know that this is one of the dumbest ideas I‘ve ever had but dwelling on the fantasy of it is attractive. No other dissociative hits such a perfect balance between euphoria, sedation, stimulation, depth and mania. I am frantically browsing through the internet looking for a pdf version of Vortech's book "A Multidisciplinary MXE Analysis". No wonder someone would write a book about this stuff. This is fantastic, no other dissociative comes close. My trip-sitter has zoned out a little at this point because my grandiose ramblings are becoming repetitive and more nonsensical. Aha! There is the book, I am such a winner I found the book in my current state of mind! I skim through the pdf for a few minutes without actually reading anything. What a useless endeavor this is but it feels so meaningful.

07:00: +++
The mania and stimulation are really strong, I need to calm down a little. I am glad that I have another person present, this could lead to trouble if done alone. I am confused but so overly manic. I am imagining a world where alcohol was replaced by MXE as the drug of choice for social gatherings and parties. This would be such a shit show. Everyone being in a delusional stupor talking over each other. Well it doesn‘t sound all too different to an alcohol intoxication overall.

07:30: +++
My mind quiets down a bit and the stimulation fades. I am starting to realize the absurdity of my thoughts and how far I was gone. We are watching documentaries about astrophysics and geopolitics on the TV, just chilling, laughing and having a good time. I hope I can continue to have this tradition with my buddy of just zoning out for a day until we‘re old. Today reminded me of our time as roommates a few years ago where we tripped like twice a month for a good while. With more responsibilities and less time available these moments become scarce and feel more valuable than they ever have.

T:09:00: ++
The humor and sense of well being remain, but the mania is gone. X is saying goodbye to me, we hugged and wished each other well. I take 1mg of alprazolam, take two hits off my Δ9-THC pen and proceed to watch TV.

T:11:00: +
The alprazolam and THC made me wavy, tired and careless. I go to brush my teeth and then to bed. I fall asleep within minutes.

The next day:

I sleep for about six hours and wake up feeling tired and groggy. I drink two cups of coffee. My mind feels slow and I am emotionally flat, but I try to go about my day.

—————————————————————————
Conclusion:

I don‘t think I need to explain that this was a phenomenal experience. Even before the addition of the MXE, I had an absolute blast. This is a great combination for psychedelic veterans but not a beginner's choice. It's obvious that I experienced mania and delusions of grandeur after the addition of MXE so having a person with you is strongly advised. Obviously, MXE can rarely be found in this day and age but adding other stimulating dissociatives like MXiPr and MeO-PCE to a psychedelic can induce similar states. I have combined 4-HO-MiPT and MXPr a few years ago which also lead to overwhelming euphoria and hypomania although to a significantly lesser degree.

All in all this was a great way of ending the MXE chapter, for the forseeable future at least.

Take care,
