Title: Side effects with seeds?
Post by Marc on Oct 6th, 2009 at 9:36am
I've posted comments many times before about my never feeling anything besides being tired, even after taking very large quantities of RC seeds. With no medications in my system and fasting for the day, nothing at all.

Initially, I was really resisting trying them because of the supposed altered reality effects - not something I was willing to undergo. Now, I don't even think about it after trying them on and off over the last few years, from a fresh batch each time.

Has anyone felt any kind strong effect from RC or HBWR seeds, aside from reducing CH's?

Just curious if I'm the only one.

You're not the only one Marc.  I have never felt anything other than a little tired after dosing.  I usually dose with 45-55 seeds each time.

Nope....

No effects for me either Marc, other than like you said, tired, or maybe just a bit mellow could be another word for it.

Just as an aside, I learned from notsienfeld yesterday that RC has helped him reach a full year now virtually PF.

I've taken up to 50 before bed.

Alternate reality doesn't concern me too much, but I never felt a side effect, except that I may have slept a bit better.

Thanks folks, I've been wondering about that for awhile and can't recall anyone posting much about it. I appreciate the input.

Redd, that's good news! I've had some pretty good long runs with RC seeds, but the effectiveness always fades to zero over time.

I've tried to blast it with huge doses with over 100 seeds, every 5 days, 10 days ans 14 days.  I've tried tiny doses daily, and everything in between.

Luckily, high flow O2 makes CH's super easy for me to kill, otherwise I'd be looking to find some big guns (to steal the phrase from you  ;D)

I've taken 80 and stayed awake for it.  The only thing I got was a little nausea, tired and gas afterwards, LOL.  Never a trip like other hallucinogens I experimented with in college.  I would presume you would have to eat an ungodly amount to feel anything.

I took somewhere in the area of 50 once.......but just once. 38 gives me a tired...relaxed feeling.....50 gave me an hour of rather strange, detached feelings. Not going there again.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I was just wondering if I was resistant to the effects.

Sounds like 20-30 seed doses don't bother anyone. Above that, some people start to notice it.

Thanks again,

Marc

Hi Marc,

I've had phenomenal results with 35 seeds, with no reaction other than calm, content, and comfy, plus, I sleep very well that night.  I take the first dose, then another 5 days later.  I've completely aborted two cycles within 7 days and have been pain free for over three years.

The first cycle I tried to bust with the seeds, the beast fought back hard for a few days of that 5 day wait period between doses.  I hit him with the high flow O2 and was able to abort those hits without too much problem. 

Now, he apparently isn't fighting anymore, but I have my seeds and O2 ready because I do believe he will visit me again someday.

Keep trying.  Trust me, the seeds gave me my life back.

Thank Sandy.

I've got several years of working with them behind me. I do get decent results, just not during high cycles.

My question was honest curiosity about others reaction to the psychoactive effect - or lack thereof.
