'''3-MeO-PCMo''' ('''4-[1-(3-methoxyphenyl)cyclohexyl]morpholine''') is a new morpholine analogue of [[3-MeO-PCP]]. It is a [[psychoactive class::dissociative]] [[NMDA receptor antagonist]], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_receptor sigma receptor]<ref>Sigma compounds derived from phencyclidine: identification of PRE-084, a new, selective sigma ligand (PubMed.gov / NCBI) | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1658302</ref> and [[pain relief|anesthetic]] drug of the [[chemical class::arylcyclohexylamine]] chemical class with a potency of less than 1/10th of that of 3-MeO-PCP.


This compound induces a state referred to as "[[dissociative#subjective effects|dissociative anesthesia]]" when ingested and is therefore used as a recreational drug. 3-MeO-PCMo has recently become easily accessible  through online [[research chemical]] vendors<ref> (PubMed.gov / NCBI) | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21215770https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21215770</ref> where it is being sold as a [[designer drug]].

*'''[[Effect::Nausea]]''' - It's worth noting that high dose 3-MeO-PCMo trips can sometimes result in nausea and vomiting at the peak of the trip. For most people, this is surprisingly not as unpleasant as they would initially expect due to the accompanying detachment from the physical senses.

*'''[[Effect::Motor control loss]]''' - A loss of gross and fine motor control alongside of balance and coordination is prevalent within 3-MeO-PCMo and becomes especially strong at higher doses. This means that one should be sitting down before the onset (unless experienced) in case of falling over and injuring oneself.

This means that one should be sitting down before the onset (unless experienced) in case of falling over and injuring oneself.
*'''[[Effect::Perception of decreased weight]]''' - This creates the sensation that the body is floating and has become entirely weightless. This effect is strangely stimulating and encourages physical activities at low to moderate doses by making the body feel light and effortless to move.

====Suppression====
*'''[[Effect::Double vision]]''' - This component is prevalent at moderate to heavy doses and makes reading impossible unless one closes an eye.
*'''[[Effect::Frame rate suppression]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Pattern recognition suppression]]''' - This effect generally occurs at higher doses and makes one unable to recognize and interpret perceivable visual data.
*'''[[Effect::Visual acuity suppression]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Visual disconnection]]''' - This eventually results in the 3-MeO-PCMo equivalent of the famous "k-hole" or, more specifically, ''[[Visual disconnection#Holes, spaces and voids|holes, spaces and voids]]'' alongside of ''[[Visual disconnection#Structures|structures]]''.
 
====Distortions====
*'''[[Effect::Perspective distortions]]'''
 
====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
The visual geometry found within 3-MeO-PCMo can be described as very dark and bland when compared to that of [[ketamine]] or [[DXM]]. It often consists of many tiny interlocking and woven lines. It does not extend beyond level 4 geometry and can be comprehensively described through its [[Visual_effects:_Geometry#Variations|variations]] as simplistic in complexity, algorithmic in style, synthetic in feel, unstructured in organization, dimly lit in lighting, multicoloured in scheme, glossy in shading, soft in edges, small in size, slow in speed, smooth in motion, equal in rounded and angular corners, immersive in depth and consistent in intensity.

The general head space of 3-MeO-PCMo is often described as simplistic and shallow in comparison to that of [[MXE]] and [[ketamine]]. The specific cognitive effects can be broken down into several separate subcomponents which are listed and described below:

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 3-MeO-PCMo use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the [[Toxicity::exact toxic dosage is unknown]]. This is because 3-MeO-PCMo has very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people who have tried 3-MeO-PCMo within the community suggest that there do not seem to be any negative health effects attributed to simply trying this drug at low to moderate doses by itself and using it sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ Independent research] should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.

It is strongly recommended that one use [[responsible drug use|harm reduction practices]] when using this substance to ensure the administration of the intended dose.

===Tolerance and addiction potential===
===Tolerance and addiction potential===
As with other NMDA receptor antagonists, the chronic use of 3-MeO-PCMo can be considered [[Addiction potential::moderately addictive with a high potential for abuse]] and is capable of causing psychological dependence among certain users. When addiction has developed, cravings and [[withdrawal effects]] may occur if a person suddenly stops their usage.

When addiction has developed, cravings and [[withdrawal effects]] may occur if a person suddenly stops their usage.


Tolerance to many of the effects of 3-MeO-PCMo [[Time to full tolerance::develops with prolonged and repeated use]]. This results in users having to administer increasingly large doses to achieve the same effects. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3 - 7 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::1 - 2 weeks]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 3-MeO-PCMo presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[dissociative]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 3-MeO-PCMo all [[dissociative]]s will have a reduced effect.

*'''[[Psychedelics]]''' - This combination is not advised because 3-MeO-PCE has been reported to cause extreme psychological disturbances such as [[psychosis]] and mania at a significantly higher rate than other [[dissociatives]].
