'''100μg ald-52 @ 3:30am'''

'''+40m''' body sensations say we are on the way.

'''+60m''' light(1/5) intensity assuming 5 is as much as I'd _like_ to go, but well rounded bouquet of promising effects. In contrast to my previously exclusively tryptamine based weeks, this is a nice change from the dominant body load they present me. The sensations are and balanced between head and body.  

'''+75m''' famished!, light body load indeed.  

'''+90m''' still getting stronger all around, 2/5 intensity, still rather balanced head+body. Trails visible on lcd mouse cursor :)  

'''+115m''' 50mg atenolol due to slight atrial flutter and increased pulse(100bpm).

'''+120m''' pupil dilation surprisingly minor. A similar sensation on other tihkals tried would have led to 50%(?) more dilation.  Pleasing surprise tracers walking about the house. + large tbsp cannabis oil due to knee pain. usual onset for this oil is 2-2.5h.

'''+140m''' legit yawn. This is a surprisingly relaxed state given what is going on within :)

'''+145m''' noticed that I’m still feeling uncharacteristically hypoglycemic. I rarely feel hungry. No real sign of enhanced peristalsis as with the simpler tryptamines..

'''+165m''' having a peaceful and pleasant time watching sunrise.

'''+225m''' visuals / head effects subsiding noticeably, body still in the state.

'''+240m''' pleasant visual trails surprise :) I thought the ride was over.

'''+270m''' feeling pleasantly sleepy, light head and body effects linger. At this point I'd expect a light-moderate contribution from cannabis oil taken earlier.

'''+330m''' enhanced peristalsis makes a showing :). It may have been contributed to by the cannabis oil. One pass resolves it though. It was much less enhanced than tryptamines.

'''+360m''' rather sleepy I could have napped, but was now in a formal setting… (9:30 AM)

'''+480m''' still feel the effects slightly, mostly body at this point..

'''+510''' sooo sleepy not typical of this time of day for me @11AM…

====Summary====

Overall a much gentler and warmer ride than the previous month’s tryptamine experiences.The head effects and visuals were proportionally greater as well. Very low peristalsis acceleration compared to 4-ho-MiPT and others similar to it. Significantly less body agitation during peaking, warmer post peak experience. Still no sign of tolerance 4+ weeks in.

This is my first foray out of simple tryptamines for the last month, and the difference in the experience was striking. ALD-52 had the fullness and warmth that I recalled from school time psychedelic experiences. It also had a much longer duration than anticipated. a 10-20mg 4-ho-MiPT experience can be over in dose_time+4h for me, this one went 6h+ and was it was still peeking its head out every now and then. I felt over all very relaxed, even sleepy at times, though I had slept the nights before. I snacked alot for me, esp in light of a psychedelic state. I was actually hungry at times.  

Enough about feelings, sleep that evening went from 21:00 -> 03:30, so still rather good in my book. I felt a little sleepier than usual up on waking for a tryptamine therapy night,  but here's to n=1 and all that.
