Trips, hallucinogenic

N,N-DMT DMT (N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is one of the most hallucinogenic compounds known. DMT is not active orally (unless in the form of an ayahuasca brew), but must be smoked in it s freebase form to experience its effects. (DMT can be taken orally when mixed with a MAOIs, but this is not recommended for the first time user.) The body quickly builds a tolerance for the drug. Your DMT dose must be taken within 60 seconds. Any more of the drug after this first minute will not enhance the experience. It is recommended to give at least one hour before attempting another DMT trip. 

Synaesthesia A mixing together of sensory modalities that is occasionally experienced during a hallucinogenic LSD trip (e.g., tasting colours). 

N-methylation of hallucinogenic amphetamines seems to produce a very smooth, mellow, euphoric trip, and the same is probably true for phenylethylamines. 

Various drugs used in the treatment of Parkinson s disease (e.g., Benactyzine) can be hallucinogenic at higher doses. However, since they seem to produce a trip like that of the glycolate esters (Ditran, etc.), which they structurally resemble, these compounds should be avoided. 

Ketamine is rapidly metabolized by the body, so the hallucinogenic effects of ketamine wear off within an hour or so after taking the drug. However, users say they often experience repeated flashbacks, or sudden memories of the visions or feelings experienced while on the drug. These flashbacks can persist for days, weeks, months, or even a year after a particular trip. 

Bad trips A commonly known outcome of hallucinogenic experience is colloquially known as a bad trip. This essentially consists of a panic episode, sometimes brought on by a dislike of the hallucinogenic effects and fear that the experience will not end. Given that LSD prolongs one s perception of time, it may seem as if the experience will never end and it... 

Hallucinogen-persisting perception disorder Hallucinogen-persisting perception disorder (HPPD), commonly called flashbacks, are phenomena where the person reexperiences aspects of the hallucinogenic trip long after it has ended. This is reported by approximately 15% of LSD users. 

A Swiss researcher, Albert Hoffman, accidentally takes some LSD. The drug, which had been first synthesized in 1938, sends him on a vivid hallucinogenic trip. Some psychologists find the drug intriguing and begin to study its effects.

Though psilocybin is known as a natural hallucinogen and has a reputation of being gentler than LSD, it is still known to cause panic attacks, bad trips, and to precipitate mental illness in some people. In 1998, a study at the Psychiatric University Hospital in Zurich, Switzerland, demonstrated that psilocybin produces a psychosis-like syndrome in healthy humans that is similar to early schizophrenia. The study showed that psilocybin-induced psychosis was due to serotonin-2A receptor activation and was not dependent on dopamine stimulation.
