Me and my friend are planning to try 7-OH recreationally. We’ve both used similar opioid-like substances before and don’t have any current dependency issues. We have 80 mg Ultra 7 tablets and are trying to figure out a reasonable amount for a first-time experience that isn’t too intense, since there isn’t much clear dosing information online.

We both agreed we won’t ever touch 7-OH again after this. We usually try different drugs together and haven’t had any issues, even with more addictive ones like alcohol and cocaine.

We’re wondering if 10 mg each would be a moderate dose for a one-time experience. I don’t want to underdose and end up taking more of the tablet to feel it properly. We’re planning to do it just once, so any advice would be appreciated.

I know you can’t really know the type of person I am, but I really know that I’m very self disciplined when it comes to avoiding addiction or dependence on substances. I’ve never even used any drugs or substances on a weekday.

This one is not going to be very long, the trip itself wasn’t a very deep/emotional trip.

I took 6 at around 9 PM. I chewed them up, which I haven’t done before, and I think that made them kick in a lot faster. Within 20 minutes, I could already feel the effects, and the walls started flowing. It felt like I was coming up for 30 to 45 minutes, which was a little uncomfortable with slight nausea, but never to the point where I thought I was actually going to throw up.

For the first hour, I was just listening to music and laying in my bed. My whole room looked bold and almost cartoonish, and the colors definitely started to fade in and out with red and orange tones. I was watching shows on my TV, and anytime a bright color popped up, it looked like it would turn the whole room a faint shade of that color.

I decided to go outside and look at the sky. This was probably the most peaceful moment of the trip. There was a slight breeze, and I was listening to music while laying in the grass looking at the stars. Although, the clouds almost felt like they had turned into a giant tarp covering me from the actual sky. At certain points, it felt like I was under a huge outdoor tent or canopy.

After about 45 minutes of that, I decided to go back inside. The visual effects never got very intense, and I never saw any patterns or things like that. If I focused carefully, they would start to form in my peripheral vision but shortly go away. I kind of just ended up laying under a weighted blanket and listening to music. It was a very enjoyable and peaceful experience. Didn’t quite have a full breakthrough, but it was a great experience nonetheless.

-Edit: the body feeling was definitely more then I expected, I spent a lot of time running my hands through my hair and just feeling my skin and my lips. That was definitely a great feeling aswell. Staring at myself in the mirror was also pretty unsettling.

8:55 just took 6 xum tablets, might check in in a little bit might forget. I’m excited

This will be a long one, TL;DR at the bottom

This was my second experience with 4-HO-MET. The first time, I took two tabs and then redosed with two more a couple hours later—mild visuals, long-lasting, and overall very enjoyable. Wanting to go deeper, I decided to take five tabs at once.

At 8:00 PM, my friend and I dropped 5 tabs together at his apartment, surrounded by a small group of friends. For the first 45 minutes, nothing really happened. Then, around 9:00, it hit. The shift was sudden but smooth. The room softened and warped—walls breathing in slow waves, everything outlined with a cartoon-like glow. Faces became harder to look at, stretching into something slightly unfamiliar, almost uncanny. Still, I felt good—comfortable, immersed, and entertained.

Around 10:00 PM, everyone decided to go out to some nearby bars. I didn’t think twice about it. My headspace felt clear enough, and I expected the change of scenery to be fun.

On the Uber ride, though, the mood shifted. My friends started arguing—nothing serious, just the usual debates about money and future success. Normally, it would’ve been background noise. But in that state, it felt amplified. Their words carried weight, and I became hyper-aware of their tone, their egos, their intentions. I found myself overanalyzing everything, quietly withdrawing, especially from one friend whose energy started to feel off. I avoided him for the rest of the night.

The moment we stepped into the bar, I knew it was the wrong setting. The lights, the noise, the constant movement—it all felt overwhelming. I wasn’t having a bad trip, but I felt disconnected, like I didn’t belong there. Social interaction felt unnatural, almost impossible outside of the people I was closest to.

Then things escalated. The same friend I had been avoiding walked up to me, bringing a girl I used to talk to and her friends. I hadn’t seen her in months. By then, my visuals had mostly faded, but mentally, I was still deep in it.

The interaction was painfully awkward. My mind went blank. I couldn’t find words, couldn’t match the energy—just a heavy, anxious silence where conversation should’ve been. It felt like my social instincts had completely shut down. I made an excuse to go to the bathroom, just to breathe and reset.

When I came back, I had regained some control. I could talk again, respond normally, and the tension eased. But the environment still felt wrong—too loud, too chaotic, too much.

We eventually stepped outside for a walk, and everything softened again. The air, the space, the distance from the noise—it grounded me. I could finally relax and enjoy the experience a bit more.

Still, I knew I was done with the bar. The others wanted to stay, so instead of dragging the mood down, I headed back to the apartment alone, choosing a calmer space over forcing myself to fit into one that didn’t.

Overall it wasn’t a bad trip, but I definitely did not enjoy it and probably won’t try that again in a public space.

TL;DR- Took 5 xum tablets and friends convinced to to go out with them. Instantly hated the environment while tripping, had a very awkward interaction with a girl I used to know and had to check out early.

Edit: I know that environment definitely was not ideal setting but I just wanted to try. This was about 2 weeks ago, I think I’m going to do 6 today and just chill at my place and hopefully have a better experience.
