DOSE:
1 g insufflated Ketamine (powder / crystals)
BODY WEIGHT: 80 kg
Hell Spelt With a K

Throughout my late teenage years I'd spent a lot of time experimenting with various mind altering substances ranging from the legal to illegal and the outright stupid, but none of this could have prepared me for what I was about to put myself through. I had taken ketamine a number of times before this particular event (as much as 1G taken in small bumps over the course of a night / day). I'd been talking to a close friend of mine about his recent experiences with K holes, something I'd never had the 'joy' of trying. After much deliberation and a few phone calls to all of our usual suppliers me and my friend who I shall refer to as C had managed to get 2 grams of ketamine delivered between us.

Now I usually take ketamine in very small doses with a short duration between each, tonight however was different.

The journey began with me asking precisely how much I should take to achieve passage into the hole, C asked if I'd like my dose set up for me which seemed like a sensible thing to do as I'd never done ketamine to this extent before. As I pass over my innocuous little drug wrap I notice the smirk adorning his face and begin to wonder whether alice really knew what she was letting herself in for, I am alice. I decide to prepare a glass of fresh orange juice for myself and upon my return from the kitchen I am handed a womens compact mirror with a spiral of ketamine. The first thing that occurs to me is that this spiral when straightened out would be extremely long, I realise that its been set up as a spiral to accomodate the amount of ketamine on a compact. I ask C exactly how much this line weighs and he informs me its my whole gram and its to be insufflated in a single hit. OMFG this does not bode well, I ask C if this is safe. With my anxietys assuaged (slightly) I roll up the note I have in my pocket and begin to inhale this swirl. I only make it half way through before my lungs cant produce the suction required to carry on, C also inhales his gram although in a single attempt. Not wanting to seem like I'm losing my cool I switch nostrils and snort the remainder of my spiral.

Laying back into my chair I take a deep breath and try to prepare myself for the impending high. Soon enough I'm starting to feel a little sluggish and I try to reach my orange juice after three attempts I realise my depth perception has gone to absolute shit
I realise my depth perception has gone to absolute shit
and that my arm isnt long enough to accomplish this task. I once again lay back in my chair and try to relax only this time as I lay back my visions distorts in a way I've never experienced like a drop in frame rate I'd expect from a bad internet connection. Only this isnt the world wide web its the world wide world. Whether I sank into my hole instantly after this visual distortion is something I shall never know, what I do know is that I have reached warpspeed (hang on isnt this a tranquiliser?), the 'world' around me is undulating and warping in and out of existence like a black hole is alternately sucking and blowing reality in and out of itself. This is not good, I try to voice my displeasure and even my voice is fractelated. I do my absolute best to compose myself only to discover its extremely uncomfortable to do so and essentially impossible. I give up at this point and decide to let the drug take me where it may, yet another fucking stupid idea it seems as it gave me a express ticket straight to that place between reality and wonderland where insanity prevails.

I have no idea how long I was insane for or even whether I was conscious, for all I know my brain had generated a artificial reality to help me cope with the mind blowing insanity I'd let myself in for. Ketamine is not a drug its a gateway to the part of your brain where logic is irrelevant and time is as fleeting as a speck of dust.
