It can get pretty sedative and nice at times, but there were no hallucinogenic qualities in any of my 3 experiences (all at quite high doses). The biggest problems have yet to come. For the next week, my gastro-intestinal tract was working it's ass off to get this crap out of my system, and serious cramping can be a problem. Gas is also very prominent, and occurs often (the infamous 'megers are awful). Nutmeg burps are bad too, and usually occur during the experience.
The timing went something like this:
8:00 PM: 21 grams (a third of a 63 gram package bye eye) of nutmeg ingested
9:00 PM: Waiting for results. Numerous unpleasant burps occur.
9:30 PM: I think it starts to kick in a bit, but it may be a placebo type effect.
10:00 PM: I finally feel something for sure, it is a drunk like feeling, with less motor skill impairment and more perception alteration.
11:00 PM: Sedation and more 'mental' impairment occur (mental = perception or thought processes).
12:00 PM: More effects come on, and though I don’t actually see anything, there are very slight hallucinogenic effects like streaming lights and/or shadows in the corners of eyes.
1:00 PM: Sedative effects are so strong I fall asleep (luckily in my bed).
The next week: Bad side-effects ranging from horrible gas to stomache pain to light sensitivity (yes, light sensitivity). There are others, but too many to list.
