I can't tell if I'm getting placebo. I bought recreational 1 and 2 off of itunes, and the first one I tried was opium. I started to lose feeling in one of my hands, but that was about it. Today I tried Trip, but I got the exact same effect, just losing feeling in one of my hands, none of the visual effects.
I wrap myself up in a blanket and listen to it.
Are the trip and opium effects supposed to be similar?

No, those aren't the intend effects of Trip or Opium, and you also didn't not experience a placebo effect (unless you were expecting your hands to go numb), all that happened was your hand went numb. I have a couple questions for you
1. When you say you wrap yourself up in a blanket, do you mean just laying a blanket over you, or literally wrapping yourself up in a blanket?
2. How do you meditate?

It's a sleeping bag, so wrap. I sit down in my really comfy computer chair, and listen to the mp3s.
I usually sit there for about 3 minutes humming, then I do a condition, then the dose.
I'm wondering if maybe I just have to practice.
I should probably also add in that I have ADHD, so would taking my meds before hand help, as I don't take them on weekends?
EDIT:
I also use an eye cover.

I found out your problem . You see, traditional meditation doesn't work with ADHD if you are trying to use I-Doser. Lucky for you, I have created a method on how to correctly dose with ADHD (http://www.i-doser.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=11673) called the SpaceMiNd method that has worked for 3 people so far (3 out of 3 people,) and I think it will help you to (I'm not sure about whether or not you will need the meds. I have only tested the method while I'm on my meds (54mg of Concerta) and no one has told me whether they were using any meds or not , but I say try it without meds, if it don't experience any effects then try it while you are on meds). I would stop using the sleeping bag if I were you and instead use a blanket, and continue using the chair, but I believe you will experience better effects if you lay down on a bed, but do what you wish, and the mp3s are fine. Eye covers are fine. Also, I wouldn't buy MP3s from iTunes if I were you. They have a way of messing up entire doses, not sure if that's still the problem but I'd say buy it from the source

I'll try the last method, as I don't really do much over the weekends
I'll update you on how it goes

Thanks, I hope everything goes well

So, I dosed the 15 minute mp3 from itunes peyote, and during over half of it, I was shaking/ felt cold air being wiffed at me, and I think I very slightly heard somebody talking...

Overall, thanks for the help. I think I've finally got it down.

Glad to be of help. As you continue performing the method your mind will began excepting the doses quite quickly, so keep it up!
