Ok, so I will come clean and say that i haven't yet sampled the sublingual method of administration, how ever I read some one saying earlier that smoalking harmalas and sublingual are essentially the same (cba to find the quote
)
The other night I was just doing a bit of a test to smoke some harmalas followed by some spice. I vaped 20 mg caapi extract in one lungfull followed by 15mg Spice about 10 mins later after a short period of centering and meditation which I find harmalas are very apt at. The experience came on slowly and was very enjoyable and light, so I loaded up a further 10mg while still under the influence and smoalked that as well, and what ensued was quite marvellous - including elements of telepathic communication, and that hyper complicated meaningful imagery that I associate with a harmala based ride. Over all, I was still having difficulty reading my computer screen around an hour later, so this certainly lasts a bit longer than Changa - and the launch was even slower to take hold, which made it very easy and even pleasurable to adapt to. I think anxiety really won't be an issue with this method of 'tiered take off', and For the dose(s) I took I went pretty damn far and the afterglow was fantastic. Certainly something I will be experimenting with again!
I don't think I will bother infusing harmalas in leaf again for a couple of reasons as well:
- Most solvents are pretty crap at dissolving harmalas which means there is always a small amount left in the dish after the leaf is dry.
- It is inflexible, unless you add extra harmalas to your bowl, or pre-load yourself with a harmala dose.
- It is nice to be harmala'd before launch so you are not totally sober going in - I find this helps.
BUT what I do find about Changa is that the other plants used do add a certain flavour and character to the trips, so I am going to continue to make enhanced leaf and smoalk that after my harmala dose.
I think I ave found my preferred method of administration for now - it may well change of course, but this shows great promise!
