i have never snorted n,n-dmt, but have snorted 5-meo-dmt. It was COMPLETELY different. When smoked you can hardly move and definitely cannot talk. When bumped, it put me into a strange dimension. It put me somewhere where i could be as free as i felt. I recognized everything, but in a weird state. I recognized things but not as they previously are... its extremely hard to describe. With that said, there was something about it that made it more enjoyable to me, not more eye opening, but more enjoyable.
