Managed to finally obtain 4-AcO-DMT.Fumarate (250 mg), and I've got a few questions, so please bear with me.
Erowid lists a common dose as 8-20 mg (oral). I've got no intentions of insulfflating, plugging or injecting; it just isn't for me. They also list a common dose of mushrooms as 1-2.5 g. When I started a 14 month shroom consumption in Feb/12 I started at 0.67g; when I stopped in March/13, my sweet spot was ~4.5g. I have consumed 6.5g (cubensis-homegrown) at maximum, and feel I could have handled more. The magic never went away, although the OEV's dwindled (I knew I was building up somewhat of a tolerance). I only stopped because I ran out of mushrooms, and in March I was too lazy to grow more. I've subsequently started growing, but it will be a while, so I've turned to Tryptamines. 4-AcO-DMT will be my second. I understand that it *may* be hydrolysed to Psilocin, and it *may* cross the blood brain barrier on it's own (and I've read that some think it might be converted in the brain).
Here's the questions......
1) How similar in 'feel' is 4-AcO-DMT is to shrooms? (shrooms give me a vibrating feeling in my arms/neck/shoulders/head, moderate to strong euphoria, OEV's/CEV's, time dilation, the ability to fixate on something for an inordinate amount of time, tracers, haloes, colour shifts, introspection and a horde of other 'positive' effects). I do get minor muscle clenching, occasional chills and moderate facial pruritis (itching).
2) Any opinions on whether or not hunger is affected? Does it make anyone nauseous to eat or think about eating?
3) How sedating or sleepy does it make you? After I've come down from shrooms, I can easily sleep for 12 hours (for me that's a lot), although the sleep is very bizzare.
I'm not going to ask for dose equivalencies between the two; I'm starting at 12-14 mg and working my way up from there.
thanks for any ideas, hints, tips or pointers
Tom
