I was looking forward to a good trip, and this mindset may have improved my experience.

I had scraped and flamed my HBW seeds prior to use. At 1 pm, about 45 minutes before using any seeds, I took one caplet of long-acting Gravol (dramamine). At around 1:45 I thoroughly chewed 3 seeds, then held them between my teeth for what I had intended to be about 20 minutes, but ended up being about an hour since I got distracted. Then I spit the chewed seeds out. Already I was starting to trip: I was using the computer and colour appeared brighter, and the windows appeared 3-dimensional. At this point I started drinking an energy drink to counteract the drowsiness from the seeds and the dramamine. Sat down to watch TV, which looked high-definition even though my television is not HD.

At 3:30 I chewed 2 more seeds and held them in my mouth (only 20 minutes this time), then 1 more at 4:30.

At this point I had started to become aware that unrelated things were moving in time with one another

- my cat moved in time with the music and dialogue on the TV, and so did passing cars on the street below, which I could see through my balcony window. I was filled with an overwhelming sense that all of the world was in harmony and all things were as they should be. In addition, colours had now become very bright, and rainbow effects like haloes appeared around various things. I had very little loss of coordination, or disturbing distortion of my own face in the mirror. I kept the television tuned to upbeat and positive shows, and I'm sure this improved my trip.

When the trip was wearing out around 9:30, I took two 100 mg 5-HTP tablets, and after a little bit of restlessness, had a peaceful sleep and awoke with no ill effects.

This trip changed my perceptions and my outlook on life!
