fastandbulbous said:People do die from drinking too much water. It's a psychiatric illness (version of a psychosis) where a person compulsively drinks water and reduces the concn of sodium in the blood plasma to dangerous levels, causing the brain to swell, put pressure on vital areas and stop regulating things like heartbeat, brathing, blood pressure etc
Not a mistake Sherlock Holmes would have made I think...
With the alkaloid aconitine (from monkshood) it's possible to absorb a toxic dose just by getting plant sap on your skin. Just having the plant rub against your skin (no sap) can make you ill
I think you got the wrong end of the stick, the point (I think) eshu was trying to make was that anything can be toxic at a high enough dose. I however do not believe that people here are really taking 'heroic doses' of this stuff as eshu seems to think.
Anyways... re nasal admin:
I've snorted 4-aco-dmt as many times as I've eaten it and have always found it just as gentle and enjoyable snorted as when eaten. Theres no burn, drip, increased body load or shockingly fast come up as with snorted 2Cx. Slightly reduced overall trip duration and increased potency (2x??)... all good
