Did you like eat 10 grams of mephedrone over the course of a week? I noticed a weird blury mass in the center of my vision, but it went away in a day
or two.

That's what I got as well, and what bothered me about it. I know exactly what tripping looks like with lots of different things, but that isn't right;
the fixed, continuous, blurry nature.
Some of the words you use make me think you saw something very similar to me.
The thing I predominantly saw was something permanently fixed to the centre of my field of vision, and it stayed there for a long time. There were
colour distortions and neon colours, but again, nothing like synaptical style tripping. The flashing neon, simple colours are not like tripping
either, they're like brain trauma.
The pattern looked as if I'd been staring at one of those circus spirally things the joker would use to hyonotize people with. The kind that, when you
look away, everything in the central patch seems to continue waving. It's a persistence of vision trick, like staring at the floor for ages as you're
walking along, then looking up and the horizon seems to move away as your eyes refocus.
At first I thought, this is interesting and waited for it to get more exciting. 18h later I was thinking... "Fucking hell this is annoying!".
Those effects, as I say I have strong suspicion, are not being caused by synaptic level activity, but by generalized distress.
I would give it some credit in that they only appeared after I took large amount of it. It was in no way addictive for me, I just found it annoying
the way it wore off in no time and didn't seem to be doing much that I considered interesting. I thought taking it faster would increase the
interesting effects. It didn't, they stayed the same and were vastly outran by the negatives, which became significant and tiresome. When it ran out,
I didn't want anymore.
Think I took 2g in about 12 - 18h.
My sense of balance was absolutely wrecked, even a day or two later. During and immediately afterwards, my eyes would drop in out out of focus to a
terrible degree and for long durations. Blocks of text would change colour or words and sentences would look like the front colour had been changed,
or a highlight colour applied.
The visual distortions are too wide spread and general. That's not what would happen if signals were being distorted at the synapses. The patterns are
too simple, it's trauma of some kind. I've experienced genuine brain trauma from impacts and I've tripped a lot, so I can reference the two first
hand. Mephedrone belongs with the first.
Suffice it to say, I wouldn't take it again if someone gave it to me for free.
It's up to something nasty.
