Contact Us Call Now (321) 415-3213Dimethyltryptamine, a psychedelic substance that has long been utilized in shamanic medicine in areas of South America, is now being used recreationally to attain euphoria or spiritual enlightenment. Despite its lengthy history of use in sacramental ceremonies, DMT is not always safe to ingest on its own. It is critical to understand the potential DMT side effects and dangers before experimenting with DMT or any psychedelic medication.
Contact Orlando Treatment Solutions at (321) 415-3213 if you or someone you know requires substance abuse therapy to overcome reliance on DMT or other psychedelic drugs. With a personalized recovery plan, our evidence-based addiction treatment programs can help you heal.
Dimethyltryptamine is a hallucinogenic chemical that can be found in a variety of plants and animals. It is also produced by the human brain, although how it interacts with other neurotransmitters to produce its effects is unknown.
DMT can be ingested in a variety of ways, including:
DMT is frequently utilized in shamanic ceremonies as ayahuasca, a unique beverage with a complicated preparation. This form of administration results in a long-lasting psychedelic experience. Injecting DMT produces a faster and more intense high, but the effects fade significantly faster.
Sleep disturbance can be defined as difficulty falling, staying asleep, or enjoying restful sleep. Stress, anxiety, frustration, and pain are all things that can interfere with your sleep. DMT is thought to play a role in the maintenance of healthy sleep cycles, particularly REM sleep, which corresponds to dreaming. While naturally occurring DMT in your brain can help regulate your REM sleep, taking DMT from outside sources can cause an imbalance that affects your overall sleep quality.
DMT acts as a serotonin agonist, binding to the same receptors in the brain that serotonin does. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter involved in mood modulation as well as feelings of happiness and calmness. When using low doses of DMT, some people experience less anxiety due to increased levels of serotonin, but everyone’s experience is different. Too much or too little serotonin can cause anxiety. When using DMT, people with anxiety disorders may be more likely to experience panic episodes.
DMT is a psychedelic that enables you to see, hear, and feel things that aren’t there. This is one of the most specific adverse effects of DMT and one of the reasons people use it in the first place. Hallucinations may be pleasurable or exhilarating for some but frightening for others.
After ingesting DMT, especially ayahuasca, many people complain of dizziness, confusion, and digestive upset. It is believed to help cleanse your body when used as part of a spiritual ritual. Vomiting is considered a necessary and welcome side effect in this condition, but it can still be an unpleasant sensation.
Tremors caused by DMT can increase serotonin levels, putting you at risk for serotonin syndrome or excess serotonin. This can cause tremors, shaking, muscle stiffness, and cramps.
DMT can make you feel paranoid as if other people are out to harm you. This side effect appears to be more prevalent in individuals with mental health difficulties, particularly schizophrenia. It has also been linked to the onset of schizophrenia in some people.
Safety and Validity: DMT is a Schedule I substance in most countries, which makes its possession and use illegal. Research on its long-term effects is limited, and the possibility of its addiction is still being studied.
Set and setting: The reference and environment in which DMT is taken can significantly affect the risk of experiencing negative side effects. A safe, supportive environment is recommended with a reliable carer.
Personal factors: Age, overall health, presence of mental health conditions, and other drugs taken can all affect how DMT affects a person.
Please remember: This information is not a substitute for professional medical advice. If you are considering using DMT, it is important to consult with a doctor or mental health professional about the potential risks and benefits in your specific case.
People who use many substances frequently consume DMT. People who use DMT may require substance abuse therapy, especially if they use multiple substances. There are numerous treatment alternatives to explore if you or a loved one are seeking help for a substance use issue.
