Man who’s tried 182 drugs explained which one gave him ‘the worst trip’ despite being perfectly legal

This is the one he wouldn't touch again

There are few people in the world who have more practical experience with drugs than Dominic Milton Trott, the man who has tried 182 different drugs.

He wrote down his experience with each of them in his book, The Drug Users Bible, since he reckons you can't really stop people taking drugs if they want to have them but you can point people in a safer direction.

Trott reckons if you give people more information on what taking drugs is actually like then you can hopefully lead them to cause less harm than just leaving them to take things without any prior knowledge.

He told UNILAD he believes 'education saves lives'.

The man has said he is never going to take fentanyl as he says people are 'rightly' scared of it because for a guy like him who is all about taking drugs safely it's 'too f**king dangerous' since the amount it takes to kill a person is minuscule.

The man has had some bad trips in the past, with him saying he tried something called a 'bhang lassi' which he said gave everything 'a sinister edge' which made him paranoid and had him rushing back to his hotel room.

However, the one which gave him his 'worst trip' ever is something entirely legal, and that's nutmeg.

In his youth he'd read a book about legal highs and decided to give it a chance but he ended up having an 'awful, terrible experience'.

At first things seemed fine, but he Trott didn't realise it takes a few hours for the nutmeg to kick in and once that happened he was locked on course for a bad time.

He said: "I did it about eight o’clock, and I was really disappointed because I thought ‘I'm gonna get high tonight’.

“It takes about three hours to take effect. Nobody tells us that… And so I went to bed.

“About two or three o'clock in the morning, I woke up and my head was spinning and I was dizzy and I needed to go to the loo. So I got out of bed, I couldn't stand up. And I'm literally crawling.. [I remember] pulling my hands up and [seeing] glue coming out.

"I sort of got there and I couldn't urinate, [then] I managed to get back, the floors [were tipping], and it was not in a nice way. The next day I still had a headache. My stomach was sore, I couldn't go into work on Monday, I was ill for a week. It’s a poison.”

His experience with nutmeg put him off drugs for a while and made him very reluctant to try deliriants for The Drug Users Bible.
