I've had experiences exactly as you describe.
A few things were at work to cause that.
You probably ingested too much harmaline for your body chemistry. I find more than just a little harmaline too heavy and 250 mg or more of harmaline/harmine mix can be debilitating whereas I can take 500 mg of pure harmine without any problems. If you look at the VDS protocol for harmaline/harmine separation you can see how to reduce harmaline. Even if you don't have the equipment to do the separation 'correctly' you can still use ammonia and vinegar to split harmaline/harmine mix into a much richer harmine/harmaline mix plus some isolated harmaline. That is something to consider if you find rue harmalas too intoxicating and debilitating.
The abrupt and shocking second peak you got is thought to be due to the liver or gall bladder retaining much of the DMT until it is released all at once. This, apparently, only happens with oral DMT.
I don't currently have nearly as much experience with oral harmalas alone + smoked DMT as many others here, so give the advice of others more weight, but in my experiences to date I took oral harmine an hour before I started smoking DMT and THH hydrochlorides two hours before [oral harmine takes 90 minutes to get to its peak, THH takes 2.5 hours, harmaline takes 60 minutes] and each smoked DMT dose came on fairly fast and lasted 25-30 minutes before I was ready to either dose again or rest and relax. The one time I added freebase harmine+THH on top of the DMT didnt seem to change that timeframe. I'd actually like for it to last longer. I have more experimentation to do
