Muscimol: my first time and the nausea that followed

Posted by coastal_student in Safety & Side Effects - 2 points, 0 comments.

I finally decided to try a small dose of muscimol after reading a few posts about its dreamlike sedation. I used a certified source, so the purity was fine, but the first experience hit me hard. About half an hour after ingestion I felt a wave shares of nausea that kept coming back, and I ended up vomiting once by the end of the session. The sedation was stronger than I expected, I felt a little confused and my thoughts drifted in a way that made it difficult to stay focused. A few people on the forum mentioned twitching, and that night I noticed some accidental spasms in my arm when I was sleeping – it seemed harmless but a bit worrying.

I decided to keep the dose low and remain in a dim room, but I also made a note to monitor my heart rate and check how I felt the next day. I’m still unsure if the nausea was the drug itself or a reaction to a new source. For now, I’m staying cautious and sticking to the lowest effective dose.
