i choose to research DMT because I've always found it interesting how a drug could make you see and go into something or somewhere that isn't really there. So is DMT actually a door to an alternate reality? I believe that DMT is it gives you access to the spirit world and allows you to connect with all sorts of spirits and for you to go to other dimensions

DMT stands for dimethyltryptamine is a hallucinogenic tryptamine. It is found in a variety of plants and seeds It's a powerful visual psychedelic. Dimethyltryptamine Is a Naturally occurring neurotransmitter similar in structure to serotonin. Dr. Rick Strassman theorizes that it is created in trace amounts by the pineal gland during normal metabolism and may be released in massive amounts during birth, death, hallucinations, and dreams. The pineal gland first starts showing in unborn fetuses after 49 days of conception, which is also the exact same amount of time that the Tibetans believed it takes to reincarnate from one life to another. Pure DMT is mostly found in a crystal form. Generally DMT is sniffed but there are other ways to take it like smoking it or injecting it.

Dimethyitrypatime was first synthesized in 1931 by Richard Mahske in the great wave of chemical experimentation that followed the discovery of mescaline and LSD at the end of the nineteenth century. At this time neither it's effects on the human consciousness or it's presence in traditional admixtures were know so it was forgotten until 15 years later when the snuffs and potions of the South American Shamans became great curiosity to psychopharmacology The psychoactive effects of DMT were not discovered until first reported by Stephen Szara in 1956 It was made illegal in 1966 because William a. Burroughs wrote to Tim Leary that DMT was to dangerous to experiment with after he nearly overdosed himself while injecting it in London in 1960.

DMT has the following effects or physical changes during the time of use: Pupil dilating(your pupils cannot properly declfer how much light you body is taking in so they tend to look very large as your pupils would in darkness in order to let in the full spectrum of slight and the light spectrum) Slightly hightened blood pressure Minor changes in body heat Lack of motor skills

Intense visuals Loss of sense of time and space Loss of depth perception Sense of separation of self body Strong sense of light, warmth, and euphoria

Paranoia Heart attack if you have high blood pressure Or a history of heart problems Paranoia or panic attack will go away 10 minutes or so after come down.

Taylor : “ it hit really fast. after the second puff there were like Slinky's everywhere colorful Slinky's that were not necessarily attacking me, but coming towards my face, and all the colors that were in my room, that i imagined were coming at me as well. it was beautiful. i felt really physically heavy, i couldn't even lift up the bottle to smoke or hold the lighter, and time slowed down. it felt like a good 15 minutes, but maybe it was only 30 seconds. the colors were really awesome, lots of green, lots of neon's. i felt like i was watching myself through a wall for part of it. the sound of the camera was really trippy.”

I choose to research DMT because I have always had a interest about it and how it works. after spending time learning more about that topic I wanted to find out if it is like a door to an alternate universe. Reading facts and experiments of people taking DMT I believe that it is a door to an alternate universe that you go to a different universe and see beyond what we can see.
