Laughing Gas (Nitrous Oxide N2O)

This is a medical anaesthetic with some psychedelic effects. This is most easily found in small green pressurized gas chargers used to whip cream and available in many large stores. They fit in soda syphons in exactly the same way as the usual CO2 chargers they resemble. This should never be breathed directly (it could freeze the lungs) but always from a balloon and also diluted with air. There is a warning on the box -- 'Do not inhale. Misuse can be dangerous to your health'. In fact it seem to be fairly safe. Classic effects of N2O are a very short (a few minutes) and intense trip. I found it pleasant enough but still a little disappointing - no more than a tingling body high.

Other people consider laughing gas a shortcut to another dimension and speak of near-death experiences.

Laughing gas-trips are harmless, fast and strong but they last only a few minutes.

A response to the laughing gas section.
during spring break 1995 me and some friends
bought some whip-its from a store in Panama
City Beach, Florida.  Later we tried a few and 
sold a few. With the money we bought a case 
for each of us. The high while short was intens-
ified by huffing the balloon by adding more and
more carbon dioxide we found it increased the 
effects greatly. My personal experience resulted
in an acid-like trip in which I found my self in a
familiar hotel lobby surrounded by many people.
For some reason or another this terrified me and 
I tried to leave abruptly.  The next thing I re-
member I was being shaken by a friend and 
realized I had ran from the living room to the kit-
chen. I would not classify this as a bad ex-
perience because it was fun afterwards.  I 
think the reason for my fear was that the 
nitrous oxide had not made me trip before.  I 
do not know how safe this is but after my first
experience the rest were quite pleasant, one
was even sexual. 
I hope this may be helpful or at least enter-
taining.
