I am looking for some info. I will paste what I wrote on the ayahuasca forum. I hope you do not feel this is spamming but I would basically be writing the exact same thing. I appreciate any info you can offer.

I am seeking to expand my mind, find new meaning to life and seek inspiration for my creative work. I realize Ayahuasca and dmt are not recreational drugs and more of a spirutal journey.

I need some information. Does Ayahuasca have much physical effects? I used to take a lot of MDMA, and ever since I overdosed a couple of times, I built up a kind of allergic type reaction to it(swollen tounge, foamy saliva, hard to swallow, excess mucus), I got this reaction also recently when I tried hawaiian baby woodrose seeds. I am hoping Ayahuasca will not cause the same reaction in me. I must say, I do not have an addictive personality anymore, so I will not treat Ayahuasca as I did mdma.

Why do I want to take Ayahuasca? Well mainly to help find inspiration for life and my creative work, and also to "cleanse my soul of anger." I used to suffer from depression and lonliness, but these days I try to look on the bright side of things.... still the anger and misery buried deep inside me may be manifesting itself in physical pain instead(since I mentally supress it) -I get strange pains all over my body which after medical tests showing nothing -I believe are anxiety attacks. I am a complex individual. I cannot change the past, but now more than ever I am ready to find new positive perspectives on life and unleash the full potential of my creativity.

I am not sure if I am ready for a full blown "rocket launcher" Ayahuasca trip, as even though I am have a positive attitude now, it is possible my subconcious "demons" will be manifested in a terrifying experience.

I have ordered the ingredients for creating the brew/tea, and also some yopo and cebil seeds. I have also researched preperation, but I have questions about the yopo/cebil seeds: do I still need to go on the maoi diet if I am smoking the yopo seeds? Are the yopo seeds as powerful as the Ayahuasca brew? I planned to smoke the seeds in small doses so I would gradually build up from mild visions to stronger trips..... these seems a logical strategy, but often I hear people going from 0 to a full blown "rocket launcher" trip.... I wonder if my slow build up strategy is flawed in some way?

I realize I have asked a lot of questions here. I would appreciate any information or thoughts or similar experiences people can offer. I have been as honest as possible so I can get the most useful feedback possible. Your honesty will also be appreciated.

You couldnt abuse ayachuasca like mdma, because they arent the same thing at all. And the only phsyical side effect I believe is purging, but no negative ones I believe.

Do you take 5-Htp to help with the past extacy use? I myself was a very heavy user and I found that taking the 5-htp helped alot, but using DMT really helped heal alot of what mdma did to my mind.

Nothing's wrong with takin' it easy. It kinda sounds like you are after a ego-destroying metaphysical asskicking tho.

I have not heard of 5-htp. MDMA seems to have messed up my mind and body a bit. My mind it is helped me understand things more, but it also took something else away. I am not entirley sure what.

What do you mean I am after a ego-destroying metaphysical asskicking? That dosn't sound like taking it easy.

i dont think smoking the seeds would be the best way to use them - check the bufotinene extraction teks here.
good luck on your journey dude, i think a mild aya experience will do u a world of good - iv heard it is very very healing.
cactus can help u to understand the root of ur problem too.

yeah..you dont want to just smoke the seeds...the side effects will most likely keep you from having any sort of good time or adventure...there are 'toxins' in the seeds(not poisonous..just have nasty side effects) they will make you vomit pretty profusely..believe SWIM...
