So there's a spay can of this fixative spray shit. It's used as a fixative for finalizing and protecting drawings, pastels, paintings, etc. It's an art material. Can warnings state to use in a well ventilated area, may cause dizziness, fumes are harmful, etc. A while back I was using it to prime sketchbook pages to make the paper stronger and more resilient to wet media. I sprayed the paper in a ventilated room and before letting it dry I brought the book into my room and continued working over the page. Fumes were strong but I ignored them. Ended up having a mild euphoric effect that night, even felt slightly stimulated and enjoyed interesting, unusual thoughts. I also pissed my wife off because I made the entire upstairs rooms smell like fixative spray. Well, I'm dry and can't stand sober reality, so there I was at the upstairs open window, having sprayed a wad of tissue paper with the chemical, and holding it up to my snout and breathing deeply inwards for about two to three minutes. No effect. Nada. Zip. Fucking zero. My question is why? It had been about 4 or 5 weeks since accidentally tripping on the shit and I would like to repeat the experience intentionally if possible.
