Hey, so after SWIM having quite some experience of smoking DMT with an atomizer and love this technology to experience the molecule. After some time he/she wanted to prolong the trip to hopefully be able to extract more of it. Due to the short-lasting effect doing DMT alone (vaporizing).

So SWIM got some Harmala freebase, did not extract him/her self but the description were it was bought said; Harmine 47% + Harmaline 53%. (Freebase)

After some searching the decision was to take it sublingually, the amount of (carefully scaled) 35 mg. Since no instructions were found on how sublingual ingestion actually is performed in this case, it was put under the tongue and was held there as long until to much saliva was produced. After that it was just held in the mouth with the tongue swirling around. SWIM read info somewhere that taking it with orange juice could dissolve Harmalas better(?). So, this was done in the final step. Swirling it all around in the mouth. After approximately 20-30 min SWIM spitted it all out in the sink, despite not feeling any noticeable effects more than maybe some placebo. Laid down and started to hit the vape with DMT, but after the trip, carefully clocking, there was not much of a difference from hitting DMT alone. Ok.. so, kind of a failure with the Harmalas.

After some days, a new attempt was tried with the exact same methods, but now with a higher dose of Harmalas, 55 mg. Same thing: barely noticing any difference from taking DMT alone. (maybe some prolonged aftereffects when the visuals disappeared, laying there and having some interesting thought patterns.

So... what is SWIM doing wrong? Next time he / she have planned for doing the Harmalas orally and taking a 200 mg dose but is fearing that it won’t have any effects. So, is it something wrong in the technique that was used for sublingual or is it something not right with the substance itself? This is not likely since it is bought from a trustworthy source.
