Anyone Remember Angel's Trumpet?

[Hannibal Lecter]

I remember some time back kids were abusing "angel's trumpet" which is loaded with atropine...like belladonna...deadly nightshade...

I heard a long time back in the 60's of kids eating daffodil bulbs also loaded with you guessed it...Atropine...:cool:

Atropine used to be a major ingredient in Contac capsules of "old", atropine works against the para-sympathetic system where as LSD and hallucinogens go after the sympathetic system...

Atropine will cause marked "hallucinations" provided you don't stop breathing...I will look for picks...:D

Set, you took the stuff when you get in can you elaborate?:confused:

i think erowid covers this topic spectularily. i have never used this drug, or any anticholinergic recreationally, but still, the stories on erowid fucking cracked me up.

Yeah that stuff is poison... that's why they put it in some pharms (to stop people from using it to get high, if you take enough you will get sick as hell).

I've used brugmansia, AKA angel's trumpet, as well as datura on a handful of occasions. Antichlorinergics are interesting, but also rather unpleasant. They are probably the least popular class of drugs, I would say the majority of people hate them. They actually used to be Brap's favorite drug group, and he used them very frequently, perhaps daily for up to a year (or maybe it was dextromethorphan use which was daily, he used both quite frequently). He said of anticholinergics, that they provided the greatest dissociation from reality of any substance.

I find the experience quite interesting, when it doesn't cause me to immediately fall asleep. The experience is like a stomach churning waking dream, or in some cases a nightmare. The first time I used it was very unpleasant.

Btw, I believe Scopolamine plays a greater role in the intoxication than atropine (I may very well be mistaken). It's rather difficult to gauge proper dosage, and by that I mean a dosage that will provide a strong experience, and not cause an unpleasant and fatal overdose. I feel it would be irresponsible for me to even attempt to give a dosage suggestion (especially since potency is widely varied). I'd recommend not using it more than once a year, or better yet not at all.
