*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - In terms of its effects on the physical energy levels of the user, 3C-E is usually considered to be extremely stimulating at levels which are capable of becoming uncomfortable and overwhelming. This can result in a shakiness and unsteadiness of the hands but encouraging one to move around, run, dance, climb and engage in physical activities. In comparison, other more commonly used psychedelics such as [[psilocin]] are sedating and relaxed.
*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - In terms of its effects on the physical energy levels of the user, 3C-E is usually considered to be moderately to extremely stimulating. In comparison, other more commonly used psychedelics such as [[psilocin]] are sedating and relaxed.
*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous physical sensations]]''' - The "body high" of 3C-E is manifested as somewhat intense in comparison to most classical psychedelics such as [[LSD]]. The sensation itself can be described as a constantly present yet somewhat mild energetic pins and needles sensation that encompasses a person’s entire body. It is usually felt over every square inch of the skin but occasionally manifests itself in the form of a continuously shifting tingling sensation that travels up and down the body in spontaneous waves. Some reports also suggest the body high of 3C-E is very challenging even at lower dosages.

**'''[[Effect::Physical euphoria]]''' - It should be noted that this effect is not as reliably induceable as it is with substances like stimulants or entactogens, and can just as easily manifest as physical discomfort without any apparent reason.

*'''[[Effect::Changes in felt bodily form]]''' <!-- - This effect is often accompanied by a sense of warmth or [[Unity and interconnectedness#Unity between the self and specific external systems|unity]] and usually occurs during and up to the peak of the experience or directly afterward. Users can feel as if they are physically part of or conjoined with other objects. This is usually reported as feeling comfortable in its sensations and even peaceful. -->

*'''[[Effect::Nausea]]''' - Mild to extreme nausea is reported when consumed in moderate to high dosages and either passes once the person has vomited or gradually fades by itself as the peak sets in.

*'''[[Effect::Vasoconstriction]]''' - This effect is usually only present at higher dosages, but can be particularly uncomfortable when it manifests and may persist throughout the main duration of the experience.

*'''[[Effect::Drifting]]''' ''([[Drifting#Melting|melting]], [[Drifting#Flowing|flowing]], [[Drifting#Breathing|breathing]] and [[Drifting# morphing|morphing]])'' - In comparison to other psychedelics, this effect can be described as highly detailed, slow and smooth in motion, static in appearance and unrealistic/cartoon-like in style. This effect is generally not as powerful as it is with substances like [[mescaline]] or [[DOC]].

====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
The visual geometry that is present throughout this trip can be described as more similar in appearance to that of [[DOC]] or [[mescaline]] than that of [[2C-B]], [[psilocin]] or [[LSD]]. It can be comprehensively described through its [[Visual_effects:_Geometry#Variations|variations]] as intricate in complexity, abstract in form, organic in feel, structured in organization, brightly lit, multicolored in scheme, glossy in shading, sharp in edges, large in size, fast in speed, smooth in motion, equally rounded and angular in its corners, non-immersive in-depth and consistent in intensity. At higher dosages, this geometry is significantly more likely to result in states of [[Effect::8B Geometry|level 8B]] visual geometry over [[8A Geometry|level 8A]]. The geometry is also described as sometimes becoming very 'yellow'.

====Hallucinatory states====
====Hallucinatory states====
3C-E and other [[substituted amphetamines]] produce a full range of high-level hallucinatory states in a fashion that is more consistent and reproducible than that of many other commonly used [[psychedelic]]s. This holds particularly true in comparison to other substances within the [[phenethylamines|phenethylamine]] family. These effects include:

They are more common within dark environments and can be comprehensibly described through its [[Internal_hallucinations#Variations|variations]] as lucid in believability, interactive in style, new experiences in content, autonomous in controllability, [[geometry]]-based in style and almost exclusively of a personal, religious, spiritual, science-fiction, fantasy, surreal, nonsensical or transcendental nature in their overall theme.

*'''[[Effect:: External hallucinations]]''' - These are often present during the comedown and can include [[shadow people]], among other indescribable beings. These external hallucinations are often lucid, interactive, autonomous, and robust. As [[sleep deprivation]] and [[stimulant psychosis]] surface, a [[trip sitter]] should accompany individuals sensitive to stimulants for the last part of the comedown. The visual effects of psychosis have been reported to blend into the psychedelic visuals around the 6-8 hour mark, sometimes accompanied by auditory hallucinations.

The cognitive effects of 3C-E are described by many as characterized as prominent mental stimulation combined with a powerful amplification of the user's current mental state.
The cognitive effects of 3C-E are described by many as slightly more confusing and introspective than substances like [[2C-B]] or [[DOC]], due to its lack of visual effects.


The total sum of these cognitive components regardless of the setting generally includes:
