So I acquired some harmala extract off ebay. Curious about the MAOI action. I got 800mg in 4 200mg caps. I weigh 215lbs for reference.

Took one of the caps today. I had eaten a quesadilla and some cheeseburgers. I wasnt too worried about the diet interactions. From what I read, the natural harmala stuff does NOT react as much as the synthetics.

After about an hour, I felt in a good mood. Nice uplifting feeling. Chilled with my friend at a hookah bar. Just was really quite happy for that hour or so.

It tapered off after about 2 hours post intake.

As far as body load, nausea was hardly noticeable. Mild headache towards the end but that lasted like 15 minutes.

Anyway, I plan on consuming more in the future. But I figured for documentation lets get this in here.

Harmala is also spiritual, not just MAOI. I want to see non-cubic network of perpetual motion machines. So that they connect each other somehow Esher-style and have informational power moving system. In and between each other 8o

Harmala also goes good with sally.d. Many other drugs it stops the fun, but it stays longer in you and adds extra spirituality. imo.
 
Harmala is really more than an MAOI. None of the other MAOIs have the psychedelic effects. It's like the dreams from opiates but a billion times cooler.

Too bady the body load feels so hard.

But just to note: Harmala, being a RIMA, may not react quite as much maybe a tiny fraction less- but combining it with cheese and anything else likely to have much tyramine is a really bad idea. It's a good way to have a hypertensive. This is really only the blue cheeses, though, the others have very little for the most part. Always double check though.

There's actually more danger with Harmala than, say, <10mg dose of selegiline- which will inhibit only MAO-B, not MAO-A (not good for potentiating tryptamines) but good for experimenting with PEA as a stimulant and no combinations leave you with serotonin syndrome.
 
I liked harmala quite a bit, and loved the combo with mushrooms. I wouldn't say it made the mushrooms much stronger, as some suggest, so much as it added its own cool effects - that dreamy, trance state that made me want to lie down and explore my mind. I also had a lot of "entity contact", but in the form of a forceful voice in my consciousness that felt like it came from outside of me telling me to bow down and submit; that human life is fragile and weak, and only when we accept that can we be free of pain. I was in the middle of a full back spasm at the time (I have some nasty disc issues) and when I submitted, ALL the spasm and pain went away. I got up and walked away with no pain at all, and the dose of narcotics I used to treat pain back then went way down for the next few weeks.
 
careful. the headache you mentioned towards the comedown could be the sign of a slight hypotensive reaction going on. some peple get strong hypotensive effects from combining caffiene with maoi, aswel as others...it seems some are more sensitive to hypotensives than others. please be careful
 
The best it is to go with ayahuasca with p.harmala, then when the peak is over, start doing sally.d. and play with radio etc. I once had veryvery fun with Bob Marley, it did give me the instructions how to go on in lyrics.=D
And the diet is mandatory, absolutedly.
