Boosting 4-AcO-DMT
Hi - long time lurker, first time poster.
Quick background: I took low dose SSRI's (first paxil, then lexapro) for 15 years. I discontinued all SSRI's about six months ago. Since then I have had several cactus trips, several mushroom trips, as well as several low dose 4-aco-dmt experiences. On both mushrooms and cactus (separately - I've never combined them), despite ingesting a substantially larger dose than what gave the other people i was with a strong +3 (sometimes bordering on +4) I've never managed more than a strong +2 experience, suggesting perhaps residual tolerance from SSRIs. More recently, 40mg of oral AMT produced only amphetemine effects, with virtually no psychedelic effects. 13mg of 2c-e similarly produced only unplesant stimulation.
The largest 4-aco-dmt dose I've taken was 15mg. I know this may sound hard to believe, but I found the effect at this does almost identical to what I get from 5mg (though longer lasting): a pleasant but mild +2. (I had taken 5mg three days before the 15mg, so i suppose there could perhaps be some tolerance.)
Tonight I will be trying for a breakthrough experience on 4-aco-dmt. I plan on taking 30mg orally. I know this is typically considered a high dose, but I'm concerned that given my tolerance it may not get me as far as I want, so I'm considering trying to boost with 5-10mg at around 80 minutes in if necessary. Searching the archived version of this thread, I found a few instances where this seemed to be effective. I'd be interested in hearing more from people who have done this, especially in regards to when they boosted, with how much, and what route (oral or insufflated).
Sorry for the lengthy post, and thanks for your help.
