*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous tactile sensations]]''' - The "body high" of 6-APB can be described as a moderate to extreme euphoric tingling sensation that radiates throughout the entire body. It is capable of becoming overwhelmingly pleasurable at higher doses, and capable of immobilizing the user. This sensation maintains a consistent presence that steadily rises with the onset and hits its limit once the peak has been reached. | *'''[[Effect::Spontaneous tactile sensations]]''' - The "body high" of 6-APB can be described as a moderate to extreme euphoric tingling sensation that radiates throughout the entire body.

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - In terms of its effects on the user's physical energy levels, 6-APB is commonly considered to have the paradoxical ability to both be stimulating as well as sedating and relaxing. Overall, it is thought to be far less energetic than [[MDMA]] or [[MDA]] and tends to exert more of a pronounced sedating stoning or couch-locking effect. Unlike MDMA, this does not particularly encourage activities such as running, climbing and dancing in a way that makes MDMA a popular choice for musical events such as festivals and raves. The particular style of stimulation which 6-APB presents is far less forceful | *'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' and '''[[Effect::Sedation]]''' - In terms of its effects on the user's physical energy levels, 6-APB is commonly considered to have the paradoxical ability to both be stimulating as well as sedating and relaxing.

The particular style of stimulation which 6-APB presents is far less forceful in a way that is more reminiscent of mescaline. | ||
*'''[[Effect::Vibrating vision]]''' - At high doses, a person's eyeballs may begin to spontaneously wiggle back and forth in a rapid motion, causing the vision to become blurry and temporarily out of focus. This is a condition known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nystagmus nystagmus]. | *'''[[Effect::Vibrating vision]]''' - At high doses, a person's eyeballs may begin to spontaneously wiggle back and forth in a rapid motion, causing the vision to become blurry and temporarily out of focus.

*'''[[Effect::Dehydration]]''' - Feelings of dry mouth and dehydration are a universal experience with this class of compounds; this effect is a product of an [[increased heart rate]] and bodily metabolism. While it is important to avoid becoming dehydrated (especially when out dancing in a hot environment) there have been a number of notable cases of users suffering from [[water intoxication]] through over-drinking (in order to compensate). So it is advised that users simply sip at water and avoid over-drinking. | *'''[[Effect::Dehydration]]''' - Feelings of dry mouth and dehydration are a universal experience with this class of compounds; this effect is a product of an [[increased heart rate]] and bodily metabolism.

*'''[[Effect::Increased bodily temperature]]''' - As 6-APB is a serotonin releasing agent, a rise in core body and brain temperature tends to be high and consistent throughout the experience. Caution must be taken as too high of a dose can result in the dysregulation of the brain's ability to regulate its internal core temperature, which can result in [[serotonin syndrome]] | *'''[[Effect::Increased bodily temperature]]''' - As 6-APB is a serotonin releasing agent, a rise in core body and brain temperature tends to be high and consistent throughout the experience. Caution must be taken as too high of a dose can result in the dysregulation of the brain's ability to regulate its internal core temperature, which can result in [[serotonin syndrome]], a condition which can be fatal if left untreated. | ||
