DMT

General Information

N,N-Dimethyltryptamine or DMT is a psychoactive substance and a substituted tryptamine.

It is most commonly classified as a psychedelic but also possesses some properties inherent to dissociatives.

Dosage

Oral

DMT is rapidly metabolized by MAO and should therefore be combined with a MAO-inhibitor such as Harmine when taken orally. Otherwise, the effects will be underwhelming or barely noticeable.

Time until onset: between 10 and 60 minutes, depending on prior food intake.

Duration: 3-8 hours until peak effects subside, several more until baseline is restored.

Low dose: 50mg of both DMT and Harmine

Medium (typical) dose: 100mg of both DMT and Harmine

High dose: 150+mg of DMT, 100mg of Harmine

Smoked-Vaporized

Time until onset: seconds

Low dose: 20 mg

Medium (typical) dose: 40 mg

High dose: 60+ mg

Extracted DMT freebase can be vaporized for very potent effects that last around 10 minutes. DMT is ideally vaporized, as opposed to smoked. Vaporization is achieved by a controlled temperature that does not burn/combust DMT material (and potential impurities), but instead just makes DMT evaporate and be inhaled.

Vaporization is much smoother than smoking. Smoking leads to break down of DMT (and impurity) molecules into potential toxic nitrogen oxides, so not only it is harsher but also there is a significant loss of actives.

Vaporizing can be achieved with improvised vaporizers such as "The Inspirator mkII","The Machine" (both DIY) or commercially sold vaporizing pipes such as the VaporGenie.

Effects

Positive

-Euphoria

-Feeling of awe

-Realizations about one's life

Neutral

-Time dilation

-Intense hallucinations

-Dissociation

-Loss of comprehension of basic concepts such as ego, language or one's own body.

Negative

-Panic attack/Bad trip

-(oral only) Nausea/Vomitting

After effects

-A lasting perspective shift is likely to occur.

-Depersonalization/Derealization can occur after an experience and may last up to several months.

-Some people experience long-term anxiety after an experience while others report a decrease in overall anxiety.

Harm Reduction

-Operating machinery is definitely out of the question while under the influence.

-Be careful for drugs or foods interacting dangerously with any MAO-inhibitors.

-Only trip in a comfortable and positive environment.

Chemistry and Pharmacology

Production

DMT occurs naturally in several plants and may therefore be extracted from them with little chemistry knowledge, requiring no actual synthesis.

Plants containing DMT include Mimosa Hostilis, Psychotria viridis, Codariocalyx motorius and Phalaris arundinacea.
