Seeing as how I am the only person on this thread with any name somewhat similar to "Ronaldo" (You don't win any points in that whole "I'm going to put a tiny bit of effort into getting people to understand what the hell I'm talking about" department, but regardless....) and the fact that I most definitely (and with no apologies) picked and will pick this apart to pieces, until we feel like we really know all there is to know about it, I'm going to assume you are talking about me. I pick this apart not because I want to disprove the effectiveness of anything but because I am scared of what can happen when taking these drugs lightly. Another tryptamine that has been billed as "just like Psilocybin" got used in higher doses recently by one of our clusterbusters and it ended up with him having a complete psychotic breakdown and him in a padded cell for 45 days. When you compare the two you find that 4-HO-MET has been used more and has been around longer than 5-MEO-DALT and yet there are more bad reports on 5-MEO-DALT. I understand completely that people are talking about small doses of this stuff but to me it seems like what the idea of a "small" dose to the clusterbuster community is different than what a small dose is to the recreational drug community. For dosages on Erowid it says the following--
Threshold 4-5 mg
Light 5-12 mg
Common 12-25 mg
Strong 25 +
But we have it listed in this thread that the recreational dose is
200 mg That is one hell of a difference.
The dosage that I have heard us talking about the most is 15 mg. You can find reports of recreational users taking 15 mg to get high. If I am missing something here somebody please point it out to me, but to me it looks like we are having a somewhat cavalier attitude towards a potentially very helpful substance. I just do not want us to take this lightly and end up with dangerous situations that give helpful substances bad names. (Try to find a clusterbuster that's going to go for 4-HO-MET at this point) I also do not want to see anyone get hurt, and I know everyone on this board can say the same thing. Under it's description on Erowid.org it only has two sentences--
"5-MeO-DALT is a synthetic psychedelic. It is extremely uncommon with nearly no history of human use."
One of the things I mentioned that I do not like about it is that you can not do a reaction test for it. I point this out not to dissuade people from trying the drug but to point out that they should be extra careful when they get it. All companies (even good labs) make mistakes. I also point it out because we have some very smart people on this board who could possibly come up with the exact type of test that I am talking about.
I am always about more options, not less and I'm not trying to talk anyone out of anything, I am only trying to convince people to tread carefully and above all look out for individual sensitivities or allergies that you might have. (myself, I would try 1 mg as a test every time you get a new batch)
As far as legality goes, Maybe I'm wrong on the idea that you can be prosecuted under the federal analog act. (but I don't think so) I'm going to reach out to some drug law experts that I am in contact with and I'll let you guys know their take on it.
The original links that were posted no longer seem to be working. Are there new links to the details on this busting method?
Towboater-- sorry you are having such a bad experience here but I am hesitant to say it's anyone else's fault. I know it sure as hell isn't mine
