How+Is+It+Taken

**How Is** **It Taken?** DMT has been used in the past in religious rituals. The participants taking part in the ritual drink brews concocted from plants containing some DMT and other ingredients as well. Recreational users use the drug simply to achieve a high, not to treat a medical condition of any type. Ways recreational users use the drug is by smoking the plant matter after it is soaked in dissolved DMT, they snort DMT that has been ground-up into crystals, or they simply inject DMT that has been dissolved in a non water solvent. The users of DMT sometimes experience immediate side effects and other times they experiencee very bizzare, mental effects. This often can invlude loss of touch with their reality. Users who have been reported of using DMT have stated that this drug is strong, unpredictable, and can produce frightening effects. Keep in mind these are hard-core hallucinogen users stating their past experiences.
