Hello to all you beautiful people. I'm a new member but a long-time visitor.
I am here to extend my greetings and to ask for some advice.
I'll give a brief background on my DMT experience first and in no particular order.
I first met the spirit molecule about 18 years ago. I've only done it a few times due to it being such a profound experience.
My interpretation of the experiences was humbling to say the least. The first experience was the strongest, and any experience after that has been lighter, due to my feeling of unreadiness and me still learning about myself.
I remember once in my vision, about so long ago, I met a woman that resembled something of an ancient Mayan woman who told me that this was not the right time.
Since then I took a hiatus from the molecule even though the molecule stood ready close by for when I was ready.
I did try to have the experience but always hesitated for the full journey.
One more thing I do want to mention is that for the most part, most of my experiences involved smoking the molecule.
I no longer smoke and do not want to use this method, as coughing while the come-on feels like it can take away or alter the experience.
So I've had some MAOI available to me, but each time I've tried to partake in pharmahuasca, my dosage has never been ideal.
There were about 3 times I tried, with 2 not having any experience and 1 having some closed-eye visuals that lasted about 5 minutes.
I don't recall the dosages I took and have not kept a journal until yesterday when I tried one more time.
Unfortunately, I did not have any experience.
From reading the forum, I have noticed there being a wide range of dosages.
Last night at about 22:00, 200 mg of THH was taken in a shot glass with some lime juice.
A shower was taken, and at 22:30, 100 mg of DMT freebase was taken in a shot of lime juice.
The THH did not dissolve very well in the lime juice, but the DMT freebase did. Either way, both shots were rinsed and washed down with a bit of water.
I put myself in a good head space, set the lights, diffused some eucalyptus oil, and put on some music.
At about 23:00 I still did not feel anything and decided to lay down and prepare for sleep. I figured if it comes on, I will notice either in my dreams or in the short while before I actually fall asleep.
I did not fully fall asleep till about 00:30. Maybe the THH kept me awake a bit longer than normal or maybe it was some slight anxiety. My mind and heart rate were pretty calm, though.
One thing I notice is some people who report their experience don't always mention the timing between their MAOI and the DMT, and also the form of the salts they're taking.
I feel like these are important factors. But anyway, I do want to mention in order to try and get some good advice what is available to me. In terms of MAOIs, harmine/harmaline HCl, THH, and 96% full-spectrum Peganum harmala extract. And I think I still have some I made. All being a few years old but kept in a cool, dark, dry place. Not sure about the stability, but I wouldn't doubt their potency.
As far as the DMT goes, there's DMT freebase & DMT fumarate. I will say I cannot verify the fumerate, as I've not had it work in pharmahuasca, but it was made using the same freebase.
I feel like there may be a few more things I forgot to mention, but I hope this is a good starting point for others to feel how wet my feet are and my desire to journey to the space beyond the veil.
Any thoughts, advice, or questions are welcome, and I look forward to hearing them all.
 
Hi @COSMIC_SWIMMER , welcome to the Nexus!

If I'm not mistaken, THH by itself doesn't have a MAOI effect that's strong enough for DMT to be active orally. I haven't tried THH by itself, but I think you need harmine and/or harmaline (or another effective MAOI) as well.

If you still have some alkaloids extracted from Peganum harmala, I'd recommend 200mg of that and 30-50mg DMT about half an hour later. Do not take a larger DMT dose before you have tried it with that dose of harmalas (or equivalent)! For most people, 100mg DMT when fully MAI inhibited will be way too much. Try to get success at a lower DMT dose and then experiment with higher doses if you want to. With enough harmalas you should have a very clear effect even without adding any DMT, and even a low dose of DMT will have an effect.

You could also have 100mg harmine + 100mg harmaline instead of the alkaloids extracted from Peganum harmala, it should be more or less of similar potency.
 
Hello @blig-blug , and thanks for the reply.

You may be right; that is what I've read as well, but I've come across some reports of people who have had positive pharmahuasca experiences using thh+dmt. Though some of the reports I read are quite old and may not be relevant today due to known/unknown factors.

I think since I took 200 mg THH + 100 mg DMT freebase and had no noticeable effects, I will experiment with some of the other harmalas.

Maybe trying some of the stronger MAOIs will at the very least produce some effect.

I am curious; how would you describe the effect of "way too much"? I feel as if I'm going to take the plunge; I should do it in deeper water. And from past pharmahuasca experiences, even though I can't recall the dosages, I feel I've taken 100 mg dmt before. But I can't be certain or remember the combination or dosage of harmala I took.

I plan on trying some pharmahuasca again tomorrow; if the weather is nice, I can go for a swim and soak up a bit of sun and reconnect with nature. That should help relax me for the journey. I could try some harmalas just to experiment and assess a comfortable dosage. Should I concern myself with building a tolerance to the harmalas? It's only been 1 day and possibly 2 if counting today, and then possibly 3 if we throw in tomorrow in the mix.

I did a little experimentation today.
17:30 - 200mg harmala/harmaline hcl in a shot of lime juice.
18:30 - Slight body high, nothing intense. Ate 3 handfulls of almonds
19:00 - Feel a bit drowsy and relaxed, nothing too intense.

Anyone have any thoughts?
If one wanted to get a full experience with just harmalas, what is the most one has taken while being on the safe side ?
