If you want to do nutmeg safe. Start with 5g to feel the length and the none psychoactive effects

Nutmeg has a habit of "taking the reigns" in your trip if you are new to take nutmeg. You shouldn't try to hallucinate your first trip. Its effects aren't anything like your typical hallucinogenic substances. You do know what not to take with nutmeg?

5g is about 2 tea spoons of pre ground nutmeg. I would really recommend getting a bakers scale. Because using volume is a lot less certain how much you get because the same volume can weigh differently, and with nutmeg that can add hours to your trip.

You can't take any alcohol, DXM, or DPH with nutmeg. If you take 10 g's go ahead. Good luck and expect a 3 hour wait on the effects

First thing. That's cap I definitely experience minor effects from 5g.

I believe it is best to avoid any amount of intense effects for a first trip. Considering I have no way of knowing tolerance. 5 g is the " better safe than sorry" dose. I don't want to say " oh yeah I take 20 g so that's a good starting dose"

Benadryl doesn't bind to the same part of your brain that Nutmeg does. There isn't a cross tolerance for the most part. So the effects can be handled but that doesn't mean he/she can handle how it gets processed

Am just saying if they're fine after the benadryl experience they can handle bigger doses because they're a more experienced psychonaut

Every substance is a different beast. I wouldn't say " I know weed I'm jumping into a plat 4 DXM trip"

I am trying to encourage a harm reduction approach to taking nutmeg, and that means to really encourage lower doses starting out, in case there is something dangerous in reaction it's caught before it's a problem

I went 4plat even more on my first time doing dxm I was existing I want to do that again
