I've seen so many postings on 'DMT' around here and I really don't know what it is. I used the search and even looked it up on wikipedia. What is it?
thank you, just what i was looking for!
Actually, for his study, he did it intravenously because it's a lot more fast acting (you feel it within thirty seconds) and more intense than smoking it.now...is dmt similar to other drugs, in the aspect that ingesting creates a longer lasting/more intense high than smoking? because people seem to gain a lot of knowledge in the few minutes of the trip...imagine if it lasted an hour or more...
Seriously, no one should even THINK about extracting DMT and using it before reading this book. A second read over the 2nd half of the book is highly recommended as well.I highly recommend a book called DMT: The Spirit Molecule. It's all about a research psychiatrist and the first government funded study on a psychedelic since the 60's/70's. Very, very interesting.
Actually yes, it is. Before he started the actual experiments, he had to find the best method of administering it. He found with smoking, it didn't kick in as suddenly and intensely as it did when he administered it intravenously. It makes sense because using an iv would get it into your blood stream right away. People could start to feel the rush within 20-30 seconds.IV is faster acting than smoking? And this guy went to college... hehe
Wrong. IV takes more time to get to your brain, through the maze of veins... Smoking, takes whatever is in your lungs straight to your brain...Actually yes, it is.

Maybe you should re-read the book. He had to administer it via IV because it isn't acceptable in scientific studies to administer drugs through smoking- that is very frowned upon. He discusses for well over a chapter of why he needed to use 'well to do people' by society standards who had used DMT previously by smoking it. Since DMT when smoked gives a 'shot out of a cannon' feeling into DMT land whereas by IV or ingestion it takes a slower and less abrupt start. He had to play around with the doses with experienced users in order to find something comparable- but none of this ever parring up with the intense full on hit of DMT smoked..Actually yes, it is.
