wo subjects recently ingested the novel compound 2-ethylamino-1-
(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)propan-1-one, or "ethylone". Here is one of
their reports:


At approximately 8:45 ingested 160mg of ethylone. 30 minutes later
noticed the need to go to the bathroom as well as some nausea that
seemed to come and go in the next half hour. I also experienced a slight
headache that came and went after the first 30 minutes. I didn't take
anything for the headache for fear of aggravating the nausea, but it may
not have been such a bad idea.

Full effects began about an hour afar ingestion. The effects were similar
to MDMA in that there was a significant lack of inhibition in terms of
talking about things that lie just beneath the surface but usually take
some work to get out when you are sober. Though there was no real
"push" from the substance itself, once a subject was brought up it was
very easy to open up and bring up subjects related to sexuality as well as
interpersonal relationships and talk about them with little inhibition. I
was taking the substance with my husband, so it was a definite aid in
taking about various aspects of our relationship. Much of the trip rotated
around talking about such issues and exploring our relationship sexually.
I have only ever really experienced that type of complete lack of inhibition
on MDMA. The difference with ethylone is that the euphoria is not there
both in terms of a body high as well as the mental euphoria. On the plus
side, that means you are able to focus when talking about important
issues and actually remember all aspects of the conversations the next
day rather than getting distracted every 5 minutes. Physically with
ethalone I would best describe the experience as stepping through a time
warp or sorts. In the ethalone world things seem to move in slow motion.
Your body feels a bit heavy and difficult to move, though once you move
there is no problem. Sexually I was unable to achieve an orgasm but the
sexual experience was extremely enjoyable nonetheless.

I would say the come down began at about 1:00/2:00am. There were
periods of falling into anxiety and negative feelings about the trip ending
as well as the desire to extend the trip but these did not last too long and
could be deflected to some extent by focusing on some other kind of
activity. I attempted to go to bed at about 5:00am and found it rather
difficult to fall asleep even after taking 1mg xanax. The period of falling
asleep was rather interesting because there were moments when I fell
into a kind of trip state where I wasn't asleep but was lost in the a kind of
closed eye world with very, very mild visuals. I woke up once in the
morning with a headache, very tired, but was able to sleep till about 1 pm
the next day.

I doubt if I will do this substance again anytime soon. The hangover was
very similar to ecstasy but I also had a headache though it went away with
some ibuprofen.Not sure if the headache was simply an exhibition of
my usual monthly migraines. It could have been.

I may consider low doses if there were any interpersonal relationship
issues I thought needed to be brought out. It would certainly aid with
such issues. Edited by: radiometer
