wondering if anyone has ever had real adrenachrome? Or know jack dick about it, the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas portrays it, but I have already done my homework and found out that Adrenachrome isn't in liquid form and would never be taken like that.
 
the only time ive heard about it was when i read about it i nthe book, erowid doesnt really have any info on it, although it sounds plenty interesting. i believe you can snort / smoke / eat the adrenochrome when its in powder form. If you find any new info please keep us updated. :peace:
 
ill look for this story, but once i heard an anecdote that adrenochrome was the only drug from Fear and Loathing that Hunter S Thompson that did not really exist. The story goes one day a kid came up to Hunter and said "hey man i love that adrenochrome shit, its amazing! Hunter then laughed and walked away because even though it DOES exist it has no psychedelic effects
 
From the Wikipedia article on Adrenochrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedia said:
Psychedelic use There has been a substantial amount of controversy about whether adrenochrome can be classified as a hallucinogenic drug. Even though adrenochrome induces remarkable psychoactive effects, most researchers agree that an adrenochrome experience does not qualify as a psychedelic one. Psychoactive effects of adrenochrome include euphoria, confusion, changed train of thought, and inability to concentrate.[1]

Author Hunter S. Thompson mentions adrenochrome in his book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. In the book it is derived from a living donor's adrenal gland (removing the gland kills the donor; it cannot be taken from a corpse). As such, it is purported to be very exotic, and very intense: "the first wave felt like a combination of mescaline and methedrine". Thompson reported a significant perceived rise in body temperature that led to paralysis. The adrenochrome scene also appears in the novel's film adaptation. In the DVD commentary, director Terry Gilliam admits that his and Thompson's portrayal is fictional hyperbole.

Author Aldous Huxley mentions adrenochrome early in his book The Doors of Perception relating it to lysergic acid and mescaline.

Honestly, adrenochrome is a drug from the nascent era of the psychedelic subculture that didn't really pan out. Much has been made of Hunter's description of coming up on it, but there's really no there there in terms of real psychedelic effects compared to the battery of true psychedelics and hallucinogens that have been produced since.
