Seeking feedback on a compiled DMT information guide-

[enkidu85]

Hello Travelers!
I’ve been working on a reader-friendly DMT guide intended for adults who are considering trying DMT and want a clear, realistic picture before making that decision.
(My partner is Adult 1 this is going to)

Edit: Yes, I used AI. I have a partner that is on the fence about DMT. She needs to understand all of this, and while I want to facilitate that as best I can, I was not going to do dozens or hundreds of hours of research when I had a tool that could, if used properly, reliably do that for me. I get AI hate, I have a lot of beefs with it too. So if you have a better way to accomplish what I needed to do here without using AI and without using months of time, please pass that on and I'll happily get rid of my version. *Rant over

The guide covers:

• What N,N-DMT is and how it differs from 5-MeO-DMT
• What less immersive and breakthrough experiences may feel like
• Why people use DMT beyond the experience itself, including meditation, grounding, emotional openness, and personal growth
• Differences between vaporized DMT, changa, and swallowed preparations
• Route-specific physical and psychological risks
• Medication interactions, especially the added risks when harmalas or other MAOIs are involved
• Planning, sober sitting, emergencies, and difficult after-effects
• Current research into depression, trauma, and other possible therapeutic uses
• A complete source list, including scientific literature and clearly identified community discussions

The aim is to balance harm reduction with an honest discussion of why people find DMT meaningful or potentially helpful. It avoids treating personal experiences as clinical proof, but it also avoids dismissing them simply because formal research is still limited. It does not include extraction, synthesis, manufacturing, sourcing, or instructions intended to optimize dosing.

I’d appreciate thoughtful review from people with relevant experience or knowledge. In particular:

• Is anything inaccurate, misleading, or missing important context?
• Are the differences between plain DMT, harmala-containing preparations, and oral preparations clear?
• Are any risks attributed to the wrong route?
• Does the description of the experience feel recognizable and useful to someone new?
• Are positive uses and possible benefits represented fairly?
• Are there medication interactions or health considerations that need better explanation?
• Are there useful studies, professional resources, or community discussions that should be added?
• Does any section sound overly alarming, overly reassuring, or difficult to understand?

Please identify the section or wording you are responding to and include a source when correcting a factual or medical claim. Personal experiences are also welcome; just note the preparation and route when known so they are not generalized to every form of DMT.

The goal is not to encourage or discourage use. It is to help someone make a more informed decision and recognize the distinctions and safety issues that matter.

Thank you, I appreciate your help!

Yes I used ai? what of it?
Does that change the information? Do you have a better source out there for this specific set of information that looks at all the shitload of info on the internet?
Just because you dislike AI for whatever reason, and I get it, doesn't mean it doesn't have value as a tool to compile information.
I also never said it was "My words or My research", I said I was working on a guide..
