I had to look up 2C-I. Phenethylamines in general seem pretty interesting, encouraging even.

I wish we were studying them with competency, in environments that were fully untethered from absolute profitism, LEO fear, politics and other non-medical agendas. We could use some better tools to address the negative effects of our increasingly complex (and decreasingly prepared) living.

2C-I was pretty fun. I ordered it online from a Canadian research lab, paid with credit card, all above board, lol. The panic attack was because of cannabis; over the years I've had half a dozen cannabis-related panic attacks, 2c-I on the other hand was pretty mellow, with lovely visual patterns. Felt less "spiritual"/introspective than shrooms, so to speak.

Also, after I got hospitalised, the ER paramedics returned the small bag of white powder to me. I don't know if that's common practice , but I appreciated the gesture.

I think anything with iodine in it in a non dietary form should be avoided because your thyroid really likes grabbing onto iodine things and there is no telling if that could, for instance, cause hypothyroidism.
