4-Aco-DMT

4-Aco-DMT: O-acetylpsilocin, 4-Acetoxy-DMT. C14H18N2O2

4-Aco-DMT is closely related to psilocibin and to DMT, and comes as a very fine powder with a slight burnt yellow hue. It can be administered orally, intranasally and rectally.

In a good environment the trip is a dreamy, fully immersive experience, not unlike being part of Alice in Wonderland, The Matrix or Total Recall. Or being inside a painting by Hieronymus Bosch.

In the wrong dose or in the wrong mood, 4-Aco-DMT could end it all. You might end up in hospital, jail or the morgue.

Please read a lot before using 4-Aco-DMT - this bad boy is a nuclear weapon for the mind. The Ctr-Alt-Del. of research chems.

Dose ranges, rectal, milligrams (male, 90 Kg)

• Light: 5 to 10
• Mid-range: 10 to 18
• Strong: over 20

I have plenty of experience in RC's but 4-Aco-DMT never fails to awe me: I have seen the sun become a cartoon orange hexagon, while the trees in the park morph and flex their branches rhythmically, as if embracing each other. I have seen my face in a mirror melt and change shape. I have seen walls repaint themselves in a multitude of colours.

A compound this strong means a psychedelic dad like me must plan ahead. 4-Aco-DMT is most definitely not suitable for tripping when looking after others, doing anything remotely intellectual or social, or when using machinery.

I have only tried the rectal method and the results have been very impressive; the most vivid and outrageous part of the trip happens during the come-up phase and the first half of the plateau phase. The first three hours of the experience.

The second half of the plateau is less vivid and the effects keep tapering down after the fourth hour or so. There's still a very strong visual and oneiric component, but it is much more manageable. It's possible to socialise by this point.

I also notice both a stimulated outlook and empathy with others, with persistent yawning - and a generic stoned feeling. I have not tried having sex during a trip with 4-Aco-DMT - it might be great, but it might also be a very scary experience.

4-Aco-DMT synergises really well with 4-Ho-Met. Not surprisingly both compounds are found in magic mushrooms. Considering how strong 4-Aco-DMT is I suspect it does not work well with phens, and the results might be very negative. Maybe other tryptamines work fine with it, but I have not tried those combinations yet.
