"Ayahuasca is like a bus tour of Paris museums for several hours. Smoked N,N-DMT is the same tour, but strapped to the nose of a rocket, and everything goes by in 10 minutes. Smoked 5-MeO-DMT is like being strapped to the nose of a rocket that flies into the sun and evaporates." -Bob Wallace
5-MeO-DMT is a Psychedelic Tryptamine that carries many different names and abbreviations. The chemical name for 5-MeO-DMT is 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine. The street name for 5-MeO-DMT is 5-MEO; however often confused with N,N-DMT it gets the same street names: Spice, Dmitri, DMT, Business Man's Trip.
There should be no mistaking 5-MeO-DMT as this drug is at least 4 times stronger than its cousin N.N-DMT. One should always be certain and identify which DMT drug they have before taking any. It is not uncommon for people to and have psychological and mental difficulties lasting several weeks after taking too large dose of 5-MeO-DMT; they mistakenly thought it was N,N-DMT. So take warning, this is a very heavy psychedelic that commands respect; though it can be a wonderful drug if used properly.
The following is good description of 5-MeO-DMT retrieved from EROWID
"5-MeO-DMT is a psychoactive tryptamine which was first identified in the mid 20th Century as a chemical in a South American plant entheogen. It is a common constituent of many different plants and has been used traditionally in psychoactives snuffs such as Yopo from the Anadenanthera colubrina seeds, Epena from Virola sap, and some ayahuasca-type brews where 5-MeO-DMT containing plants are used as admixtures. In the other parts of the world, including the U.S., 5-MeO-DMT is mostly encountered as a crystalline chemical and smoked, snorted, or swallowed for recreation and/or insight. 5-MeO-DMT is sometimes confused with its more well-known cousin N,N-DMT (usually just called "DMT") which can lead to disastrous results because of the large difference in appropriate dosages (5-MeO-DMT's dosage is perhaps 1/10 to 1/2 that of N,N-DMT, depending on individual reaction).
5-MeO-DMT has been called just "5MEO", but as other "5-MeO" (methoxy group on the 5 position, such as 5-MeO-DiPT) psychoactives have become known this shortened name is slowly losing its usefulness. 5-MeO-DMT's effects are much less visual than N,N-DMT's, with many users reporting no visual distortions at all. The experience itself is sometimes characterized as 'the void'." |
