What did you do?!! 
if only it was so exciting! it was more about expressing things i probably should have kept to myself or saying things i didn’t mean more than saying too much - in one memorable instance, i called someone out on “clearly fishing for compliments” when i could have just kept my mouth shut & everything would have been okay. i tried to play it off as sarcasm/joking (we are generally quite jokingly mean to each other - that sort of friendship) but i think he knew i was really thinking it.
there was a few more instances of oooooops, really need to keep my mouth firmly closed. will try IO in its place next time 
One of the big reasons I apply IH to the top of my head. I also like IO with IH because IO moves the subject quickly. That way, quite often, by the time you think of saying something like that, the conversation has already moved on.
Good advice for me too! 
I didnt know that drinking can make it a bit worse, but makes sense.
I think she means that people tend to say things they wouldn’t normally when drunk anyway- couple that with IO or IH and you could be having Jerry Springer live!
yeegads that would be awful
LOL that is a FANTASTIC description! it wasn’t that bad but with another drink & another spray… there was potential! I have a hard enough time not putting my foot in my mouth sober & IH-less - with just the alcohol factor it usually becomes more playful, but the IH + the alcohol made me a little mean
My P78 is getting low, so I ordered some more. Still love it, I’ve settled around 2-3 sprays of 10mcg. Also included MX397 in this order - I’m excited!
As the work situations go, I’ve had several coworkers tell me in recent days that they admire the work I do & think I deserve a promotion (but there are no positions available to be promoted to - unhelpful, but I’m still grateful for the feelings). Not sure if it’s happy P78 vibes or that I truly have been working my ass off - but either way I’m thrilled. One coworker who I have had some ups & downs with socially has gone so far as to be set on finding me a better job (I am one of the lowest paid at the company) - in his words “they treat you like shit, you deserve so much better.” I can’t say I disagree, but it means something to hear it from a colleague, even moreso him. I haven’t been mixing P78 with very much - occasionally IH (though that lesson was learned!). I’ve tried IO with 2-3 sprays of the P78 a few times now & still don’t notice much different than with just P78. IO in general doesn’t seem to do much for me though - I think I am already IO-y enough on my own, I guess 
My general impression of P78 is that it gives off very agreeable vibes about it, and while it draws people in it is in less of an IH kind of way - I find that people trust me more with their feelings, but in less of a spilling their guts unintentionally kind of way and more of a “pain gets easier when shared by a friend” way. Not sure I explained that correctly but as I said earlier, it’s similar to most of the instants but with just this slightly different idea to it. Hmmm.
The rest of my life is more or less in shambles, so I haven’t much else to write about. I’ve had both a friend & a family member die in the last four days, and so obviously, I’m not interacting or feeling like I normally do. Outside of work things weren’t going spectacularly before that, but now I’m really overwhelmed. 
The silver lining, I hope, is that bad things supposedly come in threes, so it should be time things start looking up…
I’m truly sorry for your loss. I’m not going to give you any platitudes - these things are hard enough without them. Just know I’m thinking of you and hoping you do the things that make you feel best. My wish is for things to turn around for you.
I’m really sorry for your loss as well, and I hope things get better for you. I had tons fun reading your journal so far. You seem genuine and funny and I look forward to reading more
Sincerely sorry for your losses too. Also, I am so glad that at work some people appreciate you and all the work that you do for them!
thanks all - i’m trying to keep my head up, because I know that’s what they would have wanted me to do. it’s funny that when it comes to the small day-to-day drama that i let it get to me, but when it’s really serious I can mostly stand up tall & keep truckin’… I guess when it becomes a necessity to stay afloat, I can. it creeps up to me & haunts me at night, but I’m trying to sort through my feelings and deal as best as I can.
depressing things aside, I got my MX397 + more P78 (cookie grapefruit now) + a MX422 gift… got to figure out what that does I tried two shots of MX397 to the throat today at work around 10:30:
I didn’t notice too many self-effects, though maybe I got a little bit more on task & motivated. I remodeled one of my spreadsheets to be what I think will be more useful to my boss (maybe more of a pain in the ass for me), but he had a migraine so I didn’t get to showing him. I was feeling very down and out in the morning, and the feeling continued past lunch (through the 2 shots I think I was too down for mones to help) but different bits of news & a friend I email with throughout the day having a rough day kind of snapped me out of it, as I tried to be helpful to her.
I didn’t particularly notice effects on others, either. Some men that were working in our office from another office were very respectful to me, but I don’t know how they would normally be because I have not met them before (most people from other offices generally pretend I don’t exist). That was all to really note - but I did not interact with too many other people today. I meant to spray some more before dinner with a (male) friend I had not seen in awhile tonight, but he arrived before I did so I was in a hurry & forgot. Booooo!
Really odd, I have lost one clothing size since I have started testing, and the MX397 did make me loose appetite, as well as I think the IS/B. I just eat less, and sometimes food seems unappetizing to me. Perhaps it has to do with body chemistry.
I’ve never posted a report on any of the Instant line nor mixes , but I have to say that I absolutely LOVE Mx397. The smell alone puts me in a happy place. When I spray it on I really feel like “Me”. It makes me feel warm, sensual, happy, in control, grounded and at peace with myself too. It’s awesome.
This is the only product I’ve tried that gives me consistant hits. Although mostly from men in the range of 20/40yrs (+). They’re not my target age group (30), but I don’t mind the DIHL effect that I get from them.
I really hope they make this a staple product in the future. I’m going broke buying all of the to-go’s. lol
Reporting is what will keep the product going. I read somewhere else where it said that the overall response from fems is what is delaying production of the womens lines.
Women don’t report the way the guys do. So get to reporting and then another contribution to the pool of knowledge will help to keep the womens products going. And stop hogging the 397.
i’m sure it does! it’s just so funny that humans work like that, where one thing affects someone completely opposite of someone else. much like how IS makes most people happy, but some people depressed.
MX422
2 sprays to the throat @ 7pm
ugh okay… what fragrance is this so I make sure not to order anything in it? I LOATHE it, it smells to me like bad vodka & I can’t imagine ever wearing it while hungover. where is the green-tinge smiley? if i had had a cover scent i would have sprayed it, but i didn’t. luckily, the scent fades fast. it’s too bad about the hangover bit, because…
i didn’t notice anything that seemed to be too obviously an effect, until speaking to a friend around 11:30 who i had hung out with all night. she mentioned that she had a bad headache up until i picked her up, and it started to return around 11pm. suspiciously, right around the time she encountered the mones, and then the time they might have wore off. i will test this theory next time i have a headache
other than that, people seemed pretty prone to offer hugs, but it might have just been the setting (mixer, drinks & free food abound). i felt pretty relaxed, but it is friday night, so i guess it was already that time anyway. (too over the week & too early in the weekend to give a fuck about anything!) it is worth noting we were outdoors the whole time.
my friend was very set on hearing the elaborate story i had to tell her to catch up on my life (i hadn’t seen her in a few weeks). whenever i got interrupted she made sure to get it back on track, but she is a very good listener normally too.
general consensus from trial #1: everyone around was very friendly, not in an enthusiastic way (a la P78) but more in a relaxed way. i am unsure if this was the mones or the atmosphere or a combo of both.
cookie grapefruit may well be the best thing i’ve ever smelled in my life. that is all.
No IH fail this time
2x P78 10mcg (Cookie) @ 6:15pm
1x IOx2 @ 6:15pm
2x MX397 @ 6:15pm
Then later…
2x IHx2 @ 8:15pm (on top of the head!!)
1 drop of EoW behind each knee @ 8:15pm
I met a friend for dinner at 8:30. It started off normal, & I did a lot of the talking, telling stories of the week. By the end though, out of nowhere he started telling me a story about some crazy things he did last weekend that I will not repeat here while still at the restaurant, with tables nearby. I guess the IH finally got to him I suggested drinks & we headed to a nearby bar. This is notable because I suggested the drinks… I rarely take initiative like this with guys, even friends (this one I could get into the idea of being more than friends with). The words just kind of fell out of my mouth
We both told some very embarrassing stories to each other over a couple of drinks I’m glad the IH was on my head on this occasion, as it was mostly him telling me the stories (but I did share a few of my own) For the record, I previously had one spray atop the head & the other split between wrists (in the unfortunate IH + alcohol incidents). He had to go meet someone else after that, so I headed home, but overall it was a very enjoyable night. The IH really brought that one from good to great.
I’m curious; since you’ve had a couple of IH malfunctions; why do you wear so much? I only wear 2 sprays of regular strength and you’re wearing 4 x regular strength. Are you pushing the envelope? Seriously experimenting with your limits? Or just trying to make everyone else tell you all their secrets . . . . lol
IH malfunction snicker It’s a bit like a wardrobe malfunction, but far more uncomfortable for onlookers!
It’s bizarre - with IH (& mones in general, but definitely IH) my self-effects range from radical to not at all, just by the day. This instance was definitely more on the not at all end. When I used to try just IH, when I had it in single strength, nobody even came close to reacting below 3 sprays. At 3 sprays people maybe would trust me a little with something. I always figured that when combined with something really really social, like IO or P78, I wouldn’t need as much. To be honest, that only seems to apply to self-effects, everyone else seems to need the same amount to react - the P78 may be causing the malfunctions, I think - maybe last night was okay because the P78 preceded the IH? P78 makes words fall out of my mouth faster than I can catch them (and LOUD), so I can see where it could cause some IH malfunctions.
I have this feeling that when I apply things to the top of my head they are less effective per spray too. Hahaha not sure if that is true but it always seems like it.
And in this case, secret-telling actually was a bit of an aim, although not the secrets I received LOL
And on a side note, I really like that you often come in with challenging questions like this. You are always the one asking the “why” question - and it really makes me think & gain new insight on my own experiences! I didn’t even realize until I was typing this the possibility of the P78 relationship to IH malfunctions, and I often find myself realizing things like this when I answer your questions
