Disregard Everything I say

Syrian rue is something that I have been using as an RIMA inhibitor to activate Ayahuasca for a long time now but it was only recently that I discovered its extremely promising potential as a stand alone psychedelic. Not only is this substance legal and freely available across most of the world but it has probably the easiest extraction process I have found with any drug.
Since Harmine the active chemical inside Syrian rue is a fairly robust molecule that can survive much higher temperatures than its close relatives the process literally just entails boiling the crushed seed matter down over a period of 30 minutes to an hour and consuming the remaining liquid after it has been filtered through a piece of material instead of a slow process of simmering it over 8 hours or more. This recipe can be found in detail right here and results in a foul tasting shot of green liquid.

I was extremely surprised to find that there isn’t more information available on the internet about this so I’ve taken it upon myself to categorize the trip itself and simplify the recipe into an easy and readable form so that more people can experience it for themselves.

Visuals:

After reading a few trip reports online I was expecting Syrian Rue visuals to be extremely unimpressive as many of them had described the sensation as highly chaotic tracers being the only noticeable open eye visuals but this is the exact opposite of what I found. In fact the thing that surprised me more than anything else was how remarkably similar the visuals looked to more common psychedelics such as LSD or mushrooms, these visuals literally just looked like an alternative version of LSD and were extremely intricate with my eyes both open and closed.

In terms of appearance they appear to follow a vaguely mystical style that unsurprisingly shares visual characteristics with Ayahuasca but behave in a way that is much more similar to that of ordinary psychedelics and are not affected by disturbances and light in the same way that the mostly recursion based Ayahuasca visuals are. These visuals do not build up and grow out of the air but are instead the constant flashes of colour and geometry that most psychedelic users are generally used to and are accompanied by some distinct and obvious but at the same time fairly unimpressive distortions that never seem to extend beyond the edges of objects rapidly wiggling.

At higher levels the imagery within these visuals begins to become increasingly elaborate until the all encompassing nature of them turns into a vast series of hyper realistic hallucinations that can include anything from contact with autonomous entities, entirely imagined landscapes and impossible scenarios. These usually happen during states of extremely intense closed eye visuals that are intense enough to trigger egodeath which feels remarkably similar to the state of egodeath found on LSD with the added bonus of 3D hallucinations.

Headspace:

The thought processes that characterize the Syrian rue Headspace are thoughts that are completely taken over by a sort of fluid association of ideas that is accompanied by a relaxing dreamlike state. This abstract game of word association allows the mind to creatively wander and cover all topics during a trip such as this and is often accompanied by imagery that perfectly fits the topic of your thoughts.

This is a Headspace that depending on what you want from a psychedelic has it’s downsides however, as at higher levels of tripping this substance can be extremely sedating, it is not uncomfortable and can be ignored if a person really try’s their hardest to move but if it is fought a person will constantly feel as if they are on the verge of passing out. If this is allowed to happen however they will usually find themselves in a state of endless hallucinations and vivid imagery.

Bodyhigh:

The bodyhigh on this drug is subtle but definitely there but is something that never extends beyond its lowest form. For some reason unknown to me the body high produced by 5 grams of syrian rue (a dose that has very little psychedelic effects) has a level of bodyhigh equally as strong as big of a dose as 30grams and the same holds true for even higher doses. It is a soft relaxing sensation that warmly tingles across your skin and is something that creates for a very chilled out experience.

This is not all there is to the bodyhigh however, it is also accompanied by a general loss of motor control and balance that at higher doses completely force a person to stay seated. This is a psychedelic that I would recommend people take indoors and on a comfortable bed not out in nature or at a rave as if you are going to do this you should be prepared to spend long periods of time in a sedated trance like state.

Potentiation:

Syrian rues use as a tool potentiating other psychedelics is what is probably its most common use and is something that can easily double or triple the strength of any tryptamine psychedelic if 2 – 5 grams of it is consumed roughly 15 minutes before the drug of your choice.

The remarkable thing about this is that it not only strengthens the trip but it changes the very nature of its Closed Eye Visuals in a way that is difficult to put your finger on at first but make you feel as if you really are experiencing something such as “Ancientness”. Now this may seem strange but not only have I read many trip reports making similar claims across the internet but many of my friends without prompting or previous knowledge of such a thing described the style of these visuals as “Mystical”, “Aztec”, “Tribal” and “Magical” and I definitely agree that Syrian rue gives any more common psychedelic such as mushrooms or LSD the same feeling that you are going through a mystical experience that I have felt so many times on Ayahuasca.

These visuals appear to be much more intricate than usual with a level of detail that is not usually found during a normal trip and comes along with transformations and hallucinations that have a whole new layer of depth to them. Each complex frame of closed eye visuals has outlines around the details of the patterns which were simply not there before and this felt to me as if I was finally getting the full package of the trip instead of just the usual 90% of it and is something that I’ve found quite difficult to describe. This is an extremely efficient way to ration out your psychedelics and I generally do it regardless because I preffer the overall experience but I’d definitely note however that the intricacy of these visuals unsurprisingly results in a short term memory that is much worse than usual due to the increase in sensory overload.

Warnings:

Syrian rue is an RIMA inhibitor not an MAOI which it commonly mistaken for meaning that dietary restrictions can be largely ignored as syrian rue does not contain an MAOI, although it is still advisable not to consume large quantities of alcohol or tyramine containing foods.

Although RIMAs are generally safer than MAOIs, they still have highly dangerous interactions when combined with almost any antidepressant or stimulant, common migraine medications, certain herbs, or even most cold medicines (including decongestants, antihistamines, and cough syrup) as it can cause serotonin syndrome or hypertensive crisis. In short: do not mix this drug with anything other than the classic psychedelic tryptamines such as LSD, Mushrooms, LSA and Ayahuasca unless you have done your research and are absolutely sure it isn’t going to kill you.

Things needed: 

• Syrian Rue seed matter
• Lemon juice
• Stainless steel pot
• water

How it’s done:

Step 1
The seeds are first placed into a stainless steel pot and roughly about a litre of water is then poured into the pot along with 3 – 4 tea spoons of lemon juice.

Step 2
The liquid needs to be boiled for about half an hour, the boiling process can be prolonged to make the mixture more potent by simply adding more water when it has been evaporated. 

Step 3  
Once the liquid has evaporated down to roughly a small shot glass worth of liquid it should then be filtered through a piece of cloth and the small amount of absorbed liquid should be squeezed out to make sure that none of it is lost in the process.

Step 4
The liquid can be both drunk hot or cold, and washed down with a drink such as a fruit juice.

Dosage onset and Duration:

Mild: 10g
Moderate: 20g
Strong: 30g+

Onset : 20 - 60 minutes
Duration : 2 - 6 hours
Normal After Effects : up to 8 hours

Precautions
Syrian rue is an RIMA meaning dietary restrictions can be largely ignored as syrian rue does not contain an MIAO, although it is advisable not to consume large quantities of alcohol or tyramine containing foods.
Although RIMAs are generally safer than MAOIs, they still have highly dangerous interactions when combined with almost any antidepressant or stimulant, as it can cause serotonin syndrome or hypertensive crisis.
