I used to do blue boy or something twice a month Friday nights.  Man sex was just awsome and I could streach like a rubber band. Problem is that
I don't like the side effects. A few days after, I notice some hypoxia lack of breath. I also feel a bit cranky like when you just get of the flu. You are OK but not 100%.  I now have'nt done poppers for 4 months but I miss that tingling horny sensation. Anybody else care to comment on side effects. Lets keep this thread alive gals and guys.

It seems we do not even know the basics here my friends....Maximim Impact  (Ethel Chloride) is not Poppers ...but just a variant of plain old Ether ...you can do the same thing with car starting fluid!  They put you to sleep...and have no effect on stretching the wet Mucles (read the ass)...nor do they give you a buzz!!  They sedate your brain and all feelings in small inhales ...and will flat knock you out ( Pass out) in a strong inhale of it!  These two items are far apart in what they do and how they do it!  Poppers are blood vessel dialators  (casues the Rush) and MI  puts your brain to sleep.. Yes someone can drive their hand into your ass when gone on MI...but you will not feel it nor have any idea what they did......so why would you want to do that? Fisting is about pleasures ...not just getting that hand into your ass!  I worry about MI use as it will also kill you if used to extreme....Putting the brain and body into an unconcious state and calling it pleasure defies my abilities to understand???  Poppers can also be abused and they will also cause lung problems and sinus problems if used to extremes!   The poppers Dialate your blood vessels and so does Viagra and other ED meds...doing them together can drop the Blood pressure so low your heart fails...and you could die...Be smart..and play smart!  And yes I have used Maximum Impact and still have some in the playroom...but seldom offer it to anyone...including Myself!  jay aka Waterwagon

Poppers effects are said to last 7 minutes...that is the time for the blood vessels to contatct again...I have not personally tested that ...but I am saying it is about right!  Any more often seems to have little effect.  I have used poppers since 1980 when they were still the real thing (Amyl nitrite) ...! Then due to tha Aids thing Congress was grabbing at any straws to "Fix" it!  Gays used Poppers (as did very many Straights) for that sexual kick ...and of course the relaxing of the wet Muscle of the Ass! This was a boost for Anal sex and fisting!  So it was assumed it had some connection anal sex and to HIV....NOT!!  Just was lumped into the same often stupid laws of the day!  The good stuff was made Illegal and since that time they have come up with several other products that have the same effects on the Blood Vessels (dialates them).  This increased size allows more blood to flow, the heart speeds up and you get a warm feeling or a "Rush"  (Longest running poppers Brand)  As to how often to use?? I have used them every day for several days ...and then not used them for weeks. The only down to poppers for me is they can leave you wasted of energy and tired and at times with a good headache!  But if I have played and used them a lot it seems 3 aspirins right after play will prevent the head bangers...!  You will never see Amyl made legal again as it is like all items related to sexual play....someone is looking out for you and wants to save your soul.  It was written that JFK had a case of small bottle poppers shipped often to the White House for his own use.....I am sure he enjoyed them also. They will add feelings and intensity for Male or Females if used in sexual play.  They can be harmful if used in a sloppy manner ....!  Search the net for Poppers and you can read all teh information you wish!  I have found te best method to play safe and without spills is to get a screw top small bottle  (meds Bottle)  and then dampen a ball of cotton with teh poppers and place in the bottle... keep cap on bottle and poppers TIGHT or the Poppers will lose all their kick....They evaporate rapidly at room Temprature.  Best to store with cap tight in freezer to keep fresh (yes they lose their kick in time)  ...always allow the bottle to return to room temp before opening as it will condense water into the poppers and ruin them!  Never put your finger over the top of the bottle as skin oils will also kill the poppers!   Each person reacts differently to the same poppers..and they are not all created "Equal" some are pure CRAP!!!!  So as to how often That is strictly a personal research project that only you can answer.  Do whatever makes you feel good and without burn out....They will beat you down if done for long sessions....usually fine to be stupid again the next day if you chose to be tough!!! Lol  I have gone thru many dealers over the years, as they come and go!  But at present I have found  www.uspopshop.com  to be a very solid dealer with good prices and good service.  I am awaiting an order at present......with group play in my playroom I go thru 10-15  30 ml bottles per year.  I suggest buying different labels ...as they work differently for most people...and your Body can change and not react to a brand that has been your favorite for a long time!  I hope that helps...but greater details can be found by a simple search of Google for "Poppers" ...

Thanks for the write up manboobs. I am curious to here actual people experience becaue from all that I have read on the web I feel poppers have
been satanized. My most intense sexual experiences and orgasms have been with the use of poppers. However, I know that if you use them too
often lack of oxygen to blood makes you feel fatigue.  I think I will use them on specialy ocasion just to play it safe. 

Most suppliers have their own "Brown Bottle" .....no labels...just a brown bottle..and they usually are their cheapest Popper....at least that is what I have deducded in many years of buying them...!  So comparing one to another is sorta a wasted effort. As I stated above..poppers seem to remain in flux...what was good stuff under a label last year , may well be pure crap thsi year....buy small amounts...test what you like and hope you get same quality teh next time is my advice...and your body seems to also change in it's reaction to a brand also...

Absolutely agree with you. Lets hear it from a long time user. Say someone with history from the 80's. I have read that once the substance leaves your body say 2 min. Thats it. However I don't thinks thats all true. After use I notice some strong effects due to hypoxia.

the rush only lasts minutes, but the byproducts can stay in your blood for hours (which is why your fingers/lips may look bluish)
there have been a few human and rat studies that showed some minor effects on the body, but none of them were long term studies - the question is whether those minor effects could become major problems over time
since i'm not aware of an epidemic of throat/lung or other strange cancers among gay men over 50 (since that's probably the group who have used them longest), the risk if any is probably small
i'm not sure we'll ever get a good answer, so basically i just think of it like skydiving - it's fun so i keep doing it even knowing that there's a small risk that one day my parachute might not open
