Hi everyone, I've been using changa for 2 months, I've consumed about 4 grams via pipe. I've had about 6 breakthroughs, of which one was a complete out of body experience. Here's how far I feel it's affected me:

1) Much more appreciation of psychedelic art and able to more clearly see geometric relationships
2) Improvement in my sketches and music after realisation that things can be infinitely beautiful beyond regular experience
3) Able to handle more complex information, diagrams, concepts and ideas click
4) Less chatty
5) Fewer racing thoughts
6) Fear of death diminished
7) Humbled

I hope no bias has come into this list but I genuinely feel it's been a fully positive experience, I cannot see a single aspect of myself affected negatively since I started using. Just thought I'd put this out there for anyone to relate to.

Greetings Changalang and welcome to the Nexus.

I am glad you feel you have been able to gain some interesting benefits (don’t know if less chatty is a benefit, more thoughtful maybe?) from the experience. I find the changes we see following psychedelic experience wax and wane like anything in life, be wary of seeing it as a panacea.

At the end of the day (I believe) the changes are all you and your environment anyway, just another way of changing your view of and interaction with reality.

Whatever, I find that the spice experience gives and takes according to whatever is happening at that time. Many of us say it gives you what you need.


I had that one embedded in me for some time after a particularly heavy journey, I thought the fearlessness I had gained was great. With my head in not such great shape a fair while later I became quite into the idea of doing myself in (not spice-connected, but life) it seemed like a much easier prospect than it had ever been previously.

In the end another very heavy journey decided to give me another taste of the void that put the fear into me. I think with both sides of this shown to me I have regained a slightly more rational view on death, which was probably about the same as it was before either of these experiences!

Thanks for the welcome and friendly guidance

I can't help feeling its been of great benefit to me, I dont see it as a panacea, though I did at first, but as an eye and mind opener and a place I can visit now and then at the very least. The benefit I took from reduced fear is the elimination of background noise that contributes nothing to life, though I understand the flip side of possible nonchalance towards living when circumstances are tough. Yes, I'm more thoughtful rather than less chatty as you correctly put it. I don't know what to expect from long term use of the spice, probably impossible to predict.
