'''2,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenethylamine''' (also known as '''2C-M''' and more commonly as '''2C-D''') is a synthetic [[Psychoactive class::psychedelic]] of the [[Chemical class::phenethylamine]] chemical class that produces short-lived [[psychedelic]] effects when [[routes of administration|administered]]. Its sensory and cognitive effects profile has been described as being the most similar to that of [[mescaline]] among members of the [[2C-x family]], albeit with a notably shorter duration.
In his book [[PiHKAL]] ("Phenethylamines I Have Known And Loved"), Shulgin lists the dosage range as being from 20 to 60 mg. This is now regarded by many as a conservative estimate as it has since been reported that substantially higher doses can be taken to induce a full spectrum of classical psychedelic effects while remaining physically benign, a relatively unique quality in the [[2C-x family]].

In his book [[PiHKAL]] ("Phenethylamines I Have Known And Loved"), Shulgin lists the dosage range as being from 20 to 60 mg. This is now regarded by some as a conservative estimate as it has since been reported that substantially higher doses are capable of inducing a full spectrum of classical psychedelic effects while remaining physically unthreatening, a relatively unique quality in the [[2C-x family]].
Many anecdotal reports suggest that it is calmer, easier to handle and more comfortable on the body than other closely related [[psychedelic]] [[phenethylamines]]. While not especially visual or physically euphoric, it is said to be very lucid in its head-space, analytical and cognitively unimpaired.
Lower doses of 2C-D (generally 10 mg or less) have been explored for its use as a potential [[nootropic]], albeit with mixed results.<ref>Lemaire, D. (1990). Erowid 2C-D Vault: Smart Pills, by Hosten & Lazar. Retrieved from https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/2cd/2cd_smartpills1.shtml</ref>

Many who have experimented with this substance report that it is calmer, easier to handle and more comfortable on the body than other closely related [[psychedelic]] [[phenethylamine]]s. While not especially visual or physically euphoric, it is said to be very lucid in its head-space, analytical and cognitively unimpairing.
Today, 2C-D is used both recreationally and as an [[entheogen]]. It is rarely sold on the streets and almost exclusively distributed as a gray area [[research chemical]] by online vendors.

The head space of 2C-D is described by many as one which is both insightful and relatively normal in its thought processes even at moderate to high doses. The feeling of "unaltered consciousness" may be bothersome to trippers who want an intense experience because the head space is fairly normal, stable and therefore typically considered rather uninteresting to those new to hallucinogenic experiences.

Chemistry
Generic structure of a phenethylamine molecule
2C-D, or 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenethylamine, is a substituted phenethylamine featuring a phenyl ring bound to an amino (NH2) group through an ethyl chain. 2C-D contains methoxy functional groups CH3O- attached to carbons R2 and R5 as well as a methyl group attached to carbon R4 of the phenyl ring.
2C-D belongs to the 2C family of phenethylamines which contain methoxy groups on the 2 and 5 positions of the benzene ring.
2C-D's psychedelic effects are believed to come from its efficacy at the 5-HT2A receptor as a partial agonist. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience continues to remain elusive.
Subjective effects
Disclaimer: The effects listed below cite the Subjective Effect Index (SEI), an open research literature based on anecdotal user reports and the personal analyses of PsychonautWikicontributors. As a result, they should be viewed with a healthy degree of skepticism.
It is also worth noting that these effects will not necessarily occur in a predictable or reliable manner, although higher doses are more liable to induce the full spectrum of effects. Likewise, adverse effects become increasingly likely with higher doses and may include addiction, severe injury, or death ☠.
Physical effects
Stimulation - In terms of its effects on the physical energy levels of the user, the 2C-D experience begins with mild sedation that gives way to moderate stimulation as the experience progresses. It lacks the forceful energetic push associated with most psychedelic phenethylamines.
Spontaneous physical sensations - The "body high" of 2C-D can be described as a pleasurable, all-encompassing comfort sensation. This maintains a consistent presence that steadily rises with the onset and hits its limit once the peak has been reached.
Bodily control enhancement - Whilst at lower doses one may find that their bodily control is enhanced, at higher dosages it seems to become suppressed.
Nausea - In comparison to other phenethylamines such as 2C-E, 2C-I or 2C-B, any nausea produced by this substance tends to be very mild and dissipates quickly even with higher dosages.
Compared to other members of the 2C-x family like 2C-B, the visual effects of 2C-D have been noted for being understated until heavier doses are reached. After this point, a full spectrum of hallucinatory visual phenomena begin to appear.
Drifting(melting, flowing, breathing and morphing) - In comparison to other psychedelics, this effect can be described as low in detail, slow and smooth in motion, static in appearance and realistic in style.
The visual geometry that is able to be produced by this substance can be described as more similar in appearance to that of DOM or 25D-NBOMe than that of LSD, 2C-B or 2C-I. It can be comprehensively described as structured in its organization, organic in style, intricate in complexity, large in style, slow and smooth in motion, colorful in scheme, bright in color, blurred in its edges and equally rounded and angular in its corners. It gives off a natural feel at higher dosages. While the final level of 2C-D geometry has yet to be formally confirmed, it seems more likely that it would result in states of level 8B visual geometry over level 8A.
Internal hallucinations (autonomous entities; settings, sceneries, and landscapes; alterations in perspective and scenarios and plots) - In comparison to other psychedelics such as LSD, 2C-D is low in hallucinations embedded within visual geometry. However, when it does occur this particular effect commonly contains hallucinations with scenarios, settings, concepts and autonomous entity contact. They are more common within dark environments and can be described as internal in their manifestation, lucid in believability, and interactive in style.
External hallucinations (settings, sceneries, and landscapes; alterations in perspective and scenarios and plots) - 2C-D is capable of external hallucinations embedded within visual geometry. This particular effect commonly contains hallucinations with scenarios, settings, concepts and autonomous entity contact. They can be described as external in their manifestation, lucid in believability, and fixed in style.
Cognitive effects
The head space of 2C-D is described by many as being lucid, insightful and relatively normal in its thought processes even at moderate to high doses. The feeling of unaltered consciousness may be unsatisfying to users who want an intense experience because the head space is fairly normal, stable and therefore sometimes uninteresting to those who are new to hallucinogenic experiences.
Synaesthesia - In its fullest manifestation, this is a very rare and non-reproducible effect. Increasing the dosage can increase the likelihood of this occurring, but seems to only be a prominent part of the experience among those who are already predisposed to synaesthetic states.
There are currently no anecdotal reports which describe the effects of this compound within our experience index. Additional experience reports can be found here:
The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 2C-D use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dose is unknown. This is because 2C-D is a research chemical with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried 2C-D suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). Independent research should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.
2C-D is not habit-forming and the desire to use it can actually decrease with use. It is most often self-regulating.
Tolerance to the effects of 2C-D is built almost immediately after ingestion. After that, it takes about 3 days for the tolerance to be reduced to half and 7 days to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 2C-D presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all psychedelics]], meaning that after the consumption of 2C-D all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.
Although many substances are safe on their own, they can become dangerous and even life-threatening when combined with other substances. The list below contains some common potentially dangerous combinations, but may not include all of them. Certain combinations may be relatively harmless in low doses of each but can still increase the risk of unpredictable injury or death. Independent research should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.
Tramadol - Tramadol lowers the seizure threshold[10] and psychedelics may act as triggers for seizures, particularly in those who are predisposed to them.[citation needed]
Stimulants - Stimulants affect many parts of the brain. Combined with psychedelics, stimulation can turn into uncontrollable anxiety, panic, thought loops and paranoia. This interaction may cause elevated risk of psychosis.[citation needed]
Lithium - Lithium is often used as treatment for bipolar disorder. It may possibly cause elevated risk of seizures and psychosis due to its glutaminergic and GABAergic effects.[citation needed]
