don't fool with nitric acid.

ebay is right.

mind you, i've never done it habitually, just a few
experimental whip-its.

yeah... most headshops will sell little n2o canisters (used
in resturants to pressurize various things). you'll also
need a big balloon and a cracker (a tool to open the
canister, usually made of aluminum).

whip-its are kinda fun.

you'll try it once, then tell people that they are kinda
fun.

i don't think there's an easy, effective way for an
individual to economically produce nitrous oxide.

buy food grade nitrous oxide that's intended for use making
whipped cream. as was noted, you'll need a cracker and a
sturdy balloon.

nitrous oxide displaces oxygen in your system, and can
suffocate you in large quantities (should you be lucky
enough to have access to a larger cylinder, as in a
dentist's office).

Yeah, you can get a kinda "fuzzy head" thing for awhile
afterwards. Also, if you're tripping on anything they'll
send you completely skyward for 1-2minutes.

how exactly does it "get you high"
is it just cutting off your supply of oxygen?


 

offline corrupted-girl on 2004-03-23 11:42 [#01114949]
Points: 8469 Status: Regular



doing while high on other drugs is the best high.. like when
high off ecstacy .. especially. you know.. if you're into
that sorta thing.

but yea.. watch out.. the come down is harsh .. cause it's
really intense for a minute or so..

i've never tried, but.... doesn't doing it make your voice
all fucked-up and low pitched right afterwards? ..sorta like
the reverse of the effect helium has on the vocal chords..?

it doesn't just cut off your oxygen supply, i'm not sure the
mechanism of activity is entirely understood.

i don't think it has any effects on the pitch of your voice
like helium.

Nitrous oxide seems to exert its effect in the brain via
release of endorphin. In my experience, if the patient is
taking opiates, that the concentration of nitrous oxide I
use (50 volume %) generally produces no apparent sedation
and analgesia. - Dr. Plaidzebra

well, i've heard there's a certain type of gas that makes
your voice sound lower because it's heavier than oxygen.. so
the vocal chords vibrate at a slower rate.. i'm not sure of
the name of the gas.. but whatever it is, i think it is also
inhaled for "recreational" purposes..

i had it last month when i got my wisdom teeth out..... it
was great
it can also make you hilucinate visually, in addition to
things being funny, and some euphoria too in my experience

apparently you laugh because your facial muscles are
relaxing..

q4- other "noble" gases might have this effect, maybe you
read the erowid report regarding inhalation of xenon?


 

offline epohs from )C: on 2004-03-23 12:58 [#01115017]
Points: 17620 Status: Lurker



i think you laugh because it feels good and you're kinda
confused

Points: 5678 Status: Lurker




to clarify, helium and xenon will change the pitch of your
voice, but are otherwise non-reactive and have no
recreational effects, despite the appearance of xenon in the
erowid archives of drug experience reports...

gases that are reactive are not likely to change the pitch
of your voice in this way.

not sure what gas..
actually now i remember where i saw/heard this..
it was from a tape of this kid i know and his friends
inhaling some gas from a special dispenser thing he
constructed..
after each inhalation the inhaler-person sounded like they
had the voice of something along the lines of a demon.


 

offline plaidzebra from so long, xlt on 2004-03-23 13:19 [#01115030]

at least i can confirm that nitrous oxide does not have this
effect...

yer average kid won't have access to xenon...

wonder what it was.

This is probably the only drug I've tried, since I went to
the dentist... or orthodontist or whatever the hell it was.
It was great, I might investigate buying some on ebay
someday. When I had it, I tried to fight it and not laugh or
smile to see what would happen. So I was serious for like a
minute, then suddenly couldn't help exploding into a smile
(then passed out because of some other thing they gave me to
make me unconscious)

i knew a guy at uni who spent a lot of time experimenting to
come up with the perfect device for inhaling n20 in the most
efficient way.
he ended up crafting some kind of crazy mask-contraption
from all sorts of household items.
he set up a false account as a restaurant + used to get the
canisters delivered to his address. he also bought a dry ice
machine + a strobe light.
he'd have these parties where he + his mates took a lot of
mushrooms, set the smoke machine running so they could
barely see anyone/thing - switch on the strobe light + take
blasts on the n20 dispenser.
he was a real narcotics fiend come to think of it..

I've seen someone use a gas like that too.

only thing is, it is heavier than oxygen. which meant this
person, after demonstrating, had to hang himself upside down
from some construction, just to get the excess gas out.

can't remember what it's called either.

Depending on where you live you can buy it at supermarket
(bulbs sold for whipping cream or old fashion soda bottles).
It's best to do it around other mates to prevent injury from
laughing fit!!
