DMT

N, N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a psychedelic that induces changes in consciousness which in intensity surpass most other categories of psychoactive drugs. Users consistently experience vivid visual imagery accompanying what is frequently described as a sense of “breaking through” into another world or dimension. These experiences are often deemed profound and have the potential to challenge beliefs about the nature of reality and consciousness. DMT has overwhelmingly rapid, short‐acting effects: when administered intravenously through a bolus injection, subjective and physical effects peak within two minutes of administration and quickly subside thereafter, fully resolving after 20‐30 minutes.

Repeated psychedelic doses of IV bolus DMT injections have been found not to produce any psychological tolerance. This plus the short time‐course of its action makes DMT unique among classic serotonergic psychedelics, and suitable for continuous IV administration.

Psychedelic SETI

Some studies suggest that our brains naturally produce DMT, and those who have used it frequently report variations on the same theme: entering what appears to be another plane or dimension, complete with its own ethereal beings, sometimes referred to as "machine elves," who are there to welcome them. DMTx, Medicinal Mindfulness hopes to extend the trip through IV drip to hours or perhaps days, which, they believe, would extend its duration on the other side for an indefinite amount of time.
