Just adding more info. I think im getting the hang of it now.

Adding a bit more. need to figure out how to add that template thing with doses and the molecule. so uh msg me if u could help.

'''4-methyl-2,5,beta-trimethoxyphenethylamine''' (also known as '''BOD''' ) is a lesser-known [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] and [[psychoactive class::entactogen]] substance of the [[chemical class::phenethylamine]] class. BOD is a member of the [[BOx]] family of compounds which are relatively unknown, and have only recently found sales in the research chemical community.

BOD was first synthesized and tested  by [[Alexander Shulgin]].<ref name="BOD">Shulgin, Alexander (1991). PiHKAL: A Chemical Love Story. Berkeley, CA: Transform Press. pp. 53–56.</ref> It gained little popularity and even by 2019 it is still relatively unknown.

It gained little popularity and even by 2019 it is still relatively unknown.From the few reports of it, BOD seems to be very much like the [[DOx]] family compounds in terms of it being dose sensitive, long lasting, intense, and very stimulating albeit much less potent. However, its chemical structure is related to compounds of the trimethoxyamphetamine class, and it may share a similar pharmacological profile to both.

BOD, or 4-methyl-2,5,beta-trimethoxyphenethylamine is a molecule of the [[substituted phenethylamine]] class. BOD was the first BOx compound shulgin studied and it is the beta-methoxy analog of [[2cd]]. Shulgin only looked into 4 [[BOx]] compounds of which only [[BOB]] and [[BOD]] were found to have psychedelic and enacteogenic effects.

Most users describe BOD as being clearheaded and lucid at lower doses, in ways reminescent of most 2cx's. At higher doses however the expierence can become highly intense and in some cases produces unique effects which are not found in other [[psychoactive class::psychedelics]].

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]'''  
*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]'''  
The stimulation produced by BOD is strong and noticable and encourages one to move around and do physical activities while still being not forced so that one can simply sit down and watch something and not feel the urge to move, it is very much like substances such as [[2C-B]], or [[LSD]].

*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous Physical Sensations]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous Physical Sensations]]'''
The body high of BOD is often described as being dose sensitive, with medium to higher doses producing strong  overwhelming sensations of tingling and pleasurable feelings. At the highest level the sensations can be subjectively felt as though one can feel every single nerve ending on their body and the tingling becomes a feeling of the minute chemical reactions between outside particles and the individual cells.

*'''[[Effect::Increased Bodily Temperature]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Increased Bodily Temperature]]'''
BOD increases ones body temperature in a way unlike most psychedelics and as an effect of this there is very strong perspiration. However anecdotally the sensation while uncomfortable can be easily stopped by applying antiperspirants. As well, being outside or in a place with air circulation makes the sensation barely noticable.

*'''[[Effect::Appetite Enhancement]]'''
In contrast to stimulating psychedelics such as [[LSD]], [[DOM]] or [[2C-B]] BOD increases one's appetite in a way that while not forced, makes it very easy to be eating something especially if one is sitting down or relaxing.

{{effects/visual|
The visual effects of BOD are very strong and reproducible in a way that is more like [[2C-B]], or other strongly visual psychedelics. This effect becomes quite pronounced at higher doses as the cognitive effects and physical effects seem to combine with the visual producing a state that is unlike most commonly used psychedelics.
The visual effects of BOD are more prominent and reproducible in a way comparable to  [[2C-B]], or [[LSD]]. This effect becomes quite pronounced at higher doses as the cognitive effects and physical effects seem to combine with the visual producing a state that is unique among psychedelics.

====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
The geometry of BOD can be described as being more like 2cb, LSD, or [[DOM]], than to psychedelic mushrooms, [[LSA]]. The geometry is highly intricate and synthetic, algorithmic in nature with sharp edges and a structured appearence. It is highly smooth varies with many colors and brightness, at higher doses the geometry completely makes up ones field of view and is consistent in its shapes and designs. At strong enough doses BOD consistenly produces [[level 8A]] geometry which along with the synaestate of what might be described as sensory unification.

*'''[[Effect::Empathy, Affection, and socialability Enhancement]]'''  
*'''[[Effect::Empathy, Affection, and sociability Enhancement]]''' -The entactogenic effects of BOD are much more pronounced than most psychedelics, and while not as strong as [[MDMA]], are stronger than other similar psychedelics, and are enough to produce therapeutic effects for certain people.
The entactogenic effects of BOD are much more pronounced than most psychdelics, and while not as strong as [[MDMA]], are strong enough to produce some theraputic effects for certain people.
*'''[[Effect::Increased Sense of Humor ]]''' -This is one of the more noticeable effects of BOD, and is more pronounced than most [[psychoactive class::psychedelics]]. Strangely it is very similar to the effects of cannabinoids such as [[cannabis]]
*'''[[Effect::Increased Sense of Humor ]]'''  
*'''[[Effect::Emotion Enhancement]]''' -While BOD produces a mostly euphoric state, like most psychedelics the high can change quite rapidly from euphoric to dysphoric merely due to emotional changes. This is an intense state which is less controllable than in other clear headed psychedelics and can feel quite strange and scary if one is unprepared.

*'''[[Effect::Novelty enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Increased music appreciation]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Memory suppression]]'''
**'''[[Effect::Ego death]]''' - BOD produces a unique ego death that is not as much a loss in sense of self as it is the feeling as though one is a viewer of the world from an outside, in a way which is similar to but unique from compounds such as [[LSD]], and [[2C-B]]

If applicable, a brief paragraph summary of the substance's auditory effects may be included here.
The auditory effects of BOD are very pronounced, much like many other psychedelics but due to the synaesthesic effects of BOD, they subjectively can feel quite different.

In comparison to [[LSD]] the synaesthesia produce by BOD is much more intense and can be overwhelming. At its highest level it becomes a state much more profound than in most other synaesthesic compounds.

These effects are likely very rare, and the only person who as of 2019 has reported it took a much higher dose than most people would be taking. Caution is advised.
