Dimethyltriptamine injected into the left superior frontal gyrus?

  • Your body is great at metabolizing DMT, so I think that this would almost certainly be a temporary trip. It is this process that breaks it down under other types of consumption (smoking, drinking ayahuasca, injection into forearm) and I don't see why this wouldn't happen if you injected it into your brain. Your body can't deal with the constant effect of the drug (because it is often quite overwhelming) and you need a lot of time after you've come down to deconstruct what happened, interpret it and apply it to the rest of your life. Since DMT has been with us as long as we've been around, our bodies know this and know that a constant DMT state is really not useful or desirable, and therefore I don't think it would be possible. I also don't think it would at all change the way our brain produces DMT in the long run.
    I don't know about the regions of the brain or how that would affect it, but I think that your brain processes DMT in the pineal gland so an injection to your brain would result in an almost instant effect because it wouldn't have to travel far.
    I'm not convinced that the potential risks of what you are suggesting are worth it. There is definitely research out there of the effects of DMT by injection, and I think that we can learn a lot about the drug in this way (which has been proven to be safe in when done under proper medical supervision). I think that if we did more research, we would continue to learn about the effects of this hallucinogen and that this kind of research would eventually bring about the answers to a lot of the questions we have about it. Brain injection is not necessary, IMHO. But I also don't think it would kill us and probably wouldn't be all that dangerous at low doses. But I don't really want to find out.

    • The (left) superior frontal gyrus is the part in the brain that controls the senses and sense of reality, that is the reason why I am highly interested in the effects of injections in there. If it one day is researched by scientists, I would love to know what the results would be, although I believe that if they ever conduct such experimentation, they would not publish the results anytime soon.

      I also now realized that I had misspelled dimethyltryptamine... Now I feel like a mentally disabled child.
