Hallucinogens: Psychedelics, Dissociatives, and Deliriants. History, effects, explanations - General

Even though I have done a lot of chemistry, I still wouldn't trust myself to make DMT I would get way to paranoid that I've done something wrong and if i did make it, i would have to make someone else try it first.

We're not talking about synthesizing it, we're talking about extracting it. Extractions are fairly simple, as long as you're good at following directions

You're not going to end up with a substance that is anything other than what you are extracting. And if you do fuck up, it's usually something like boiling something for too long (which just kills whatever you're trying to extract rather than make it harmful, which is what I assume you thought it'd do)

When is the Mushroom season? I mean, how do I know when it's the time to go hunting? We've just had a 4-5 day spell of intense sun/heat, and 2 days of solid rain. [editline]6th June 2011[/editline] We're in Spring/Summer btw

[editline]6th June 2011[/editline] We're in Spring/Summer btw[/QUOTE] Different species of mushrooms have different growing seasons. Typically the more popular mushrooms grow in late Spring and early Summer, so right around now is a pretty good time to go on a shroom hunt.

I wouldn't go hunting for shrooms in the wild unless you've done it before, successfully, and so can successfully identify the psychoactive varieties. Otherwise it's potentially lethal. Edit: The double use of successfully is strange, but whatever.

Edit: The double use of successfully is strange, but whatever.[/QUOTE] If anyone does decide to do that however, use this website to make sure you have the right ones: [url]www.shroomery.org[/url] They have forums where you can post pictures and ask people to identify your shrooms.

I personally use a field guide and a handbook when I go on hunts. More convenient than having to identify after the hunt.

That is a really nice read OP. I subscribed to it. Could it be possible to add the post-effects? Like as I recall magic mush makes you very depressed the day after.

[QUOTE=feloix13;30424411]That is a really nice read OP. I subscribed to it. Could it be possible to add the post-effects? Like as I recall magic mush makes you very depressed the day after.[/QUOTE] Good idea. I'll add those to the OP as well, probably in batches.

The after-effects are typically more subjective than the initial effects.

[quote]I personally use a field guide and a handbook when I go on hunts. More convenient than having to identify after the hunt.[/quote] Can you recommend any good field guides/handbooks that I should get for when I go hunting?

bump for useful thread

I tried mushrooms yesterday but it didn't have too much of an effect on me. My girlfriend and her friends were seeing retarded shit and just generally acting high after about half an hour, but I sat with them for a few hours and didn't feel anything. I just felt the tiniest bit high but that could have been because I was tired anyway.

Im gonna be picking up a bag of 4-AcO-DMT from a guy I know. i've been reading up on it, any advice?

i've heard of DMT i never tried it but it sounds like fun. fun fact: did you know that when you sleep your pineal gland produces DMT this is what makes you dream even though its a theory it makes a lot of sense

I heard DMT is crazy shit man.

[QUOTE=Stormcharger;30603195]Theory.[/QUOTE] ok well theory but for some reason it does make sense if you think about it

[QUOTE=confinedUser;30603214]ok well theory but for some reason it does make sense if you think about it[/QUOTE] Yea it does make sense, just letting you know its not proven haha

thanks for letting me know bro lol

Has anyone here ever been on a khole? I've been really interested in it, as i like ketamine and have been veerrry close to a khole, and apart from the fact i didn't understand what the fuck was going around me and i couldn't speak i thought the trippier side of K was awesome. I've had a couple of friends who say kholes are the worst things to ever get, but they've all been at parties or in club and i was thinking if you kholed in a comfortable place whether you'd enjoy it? Never tried any psychadelics but i think i've done K enough times to be cool with the khole but yeah can i get some views on whether its worth getting on one?

[QUOTE=counterpo0;30603200]I heard DMT is crazy shit man.[/QUOTE] It is, 4-AcO-DMT on the other hand is supposedly a lot like shrooms. From Erowid: [quote]Psilocybin, present in magic mushrooms, is metabolized into psilocin; a similar situation likely occurs with 4-Acetoxy-DMT being metabolized into psilocin.[/quote] [quote]Several available reports of 4-Acetoxy-DMT compare it favorably to psilocybin, describing it as more euphoric, gentle, warm, and colorful. It has also been described as less jarring, and less likely to produce nausea.[/quote]

DMT is fucking crazy, I was sliding down a tube of kaleidoscope patterns into a geometric lake.

Didn't Shulgin hate DMT but give 5-MeO-DMT a +4?

On the Erowid DXM FAQ it says that you can die if you mix antidepressants and DXM it can cause serotonin syndrome which may very well end up killing you. I'm on an SSRI, I'm not going to try DXM, but I was wondering if there are any interactions between SSRIs and Dramamine.

From what I hear tripping on Dramamine sucks.

I did some reading on dramamnie and it doesn't sound that bad to me. [editline]25th June 2011[/editline] If you're careful with it that is.
