Yesterday swim had 500 mg of acetate (washed once) , his buddy had 600mg.
This is a known dose for both, manageable and enjoyable. After 4 hour of ingestion things twisted quite a bit. The experience was pretty mellow by the river side in the mountains enjoying the perfection of nature and having a very pleasant time, swim and his friend got hungry and like always had some fruit: melon and some cherries, but they also had salted cashew nuts (first time they had something salted and specially cashew nuts during a trip). 10 minutes after ingestion they had a very strong peak which felt like a doubled dose. Symptoms where : Strong heart beat, some lack of air , interruption of audition to hear a buzz like sound, anxiety, and something strange : dream state with eyes closed like heroin effects for seconds.
Swim has had mescaline many times in doses up to 700mg and never had a rough trip, he can only explain this as a food interaction. Salt elevates blood pressure, under the sun with some extra glucose... mescaline just pumped in to their brains... This situation lasted about 30-60 minutes but the stress was such that it did compromised the whole experience.The feeling was of being in contact with a powerful force, something like being carried by a wave when it breaks in the sand shaking you roughly.Overwhelmed.
An other explanation would spiritual, they had a manifestation of the spirit... or swims scale is broken...
