Frequently Asked Questions - 5-MeO-DMT Experience: safety, dosing, differences vs N,N-DMT, purging, reactivations, integration, and facilitator training

5-MeO-DMT FAQs cover safety, preparation, and what to expect from the experience. The page contrasts 5-MeO-DMT with N,N-DMT by emphasizing that 5-MeO-DMT is described as dissolving the sense of individual self, while N,N-DMT is described as more visual and fractal. It addresses contraindications and risks, including dangers with certain mental health histories and medications like SSRIs, and highlights that sitting with an experienced facilitator is presented as non-negotiable. Dosage ranges are provided for Bufo (often called “handshake,” “hug,” and “full dose”) and for synthetic “pure molecule,” along with limits (not exceeding stated single-dose maximums). The FAQ explains common phenomena like reactivations (timed lingering moments within days after the experience, with multiple theories for why they happen) and purging (estimated frequency and facilitator recovery steps). It also stresses integration as essential to lasting change, warns that frequent use without integration can lead to a “super Ego,” and covers practical preparation guidance, trauma resurfacing, and how to prepare for integration after sessions. It additionally discusses Bufo versus synthetic sources and conservation concerns, and provides information on becoming a facilitator via a 9-month training.
