Yeah, I was quite sad that I could never quite achieve the bliss of that first dose again. If I didn't have things going on in my external life right now to keep me busy, I definitely would have chased that bliss to a dangerous degree.

Do you happen to know what that dose is (or could point me at a paper/some other reputable source that states it)? Would love more information on being able to dose myself responsibly.
