    Here, maybe, is diisopropyltryptamine-aka DiPT.

    This is a psychedelic drug, which mainly gives not visual distortions, but auditory ones – all sounds become lower, and it is impossible to say exactly how much lower. The reason why this particular substance has such an effect (its analogues 5-MeO-DiPT and 4-HO-DiPT are common psychedelics), as well as why the effect is exactly this, is also still unknown.

    I took about 20 mg of DiPT (mixed 1 gram well with 5 teaspoons of flour, then took 1/8 of the mixture) at 1: 00 am. I should note that I take 10 mg of paroxetine (Paxil) daily.

    The action started in 45 minutes. All the sounds gradually dropped in tone, I didn't even notice at first, because I sat down to watch a movie that I had never seen before, and I didn't realize that the voices didn't sound right. I only noticed it when I started talking. It was hard not to notice.

    Over the course of an hour, the action intensified, combined with faint visual distortions (the light flickered a little, geometric patterns appeared, it became difficult to estimate the distance, and the whole room seemed small when I got up).

    Music was difficult to listen to at first. But after a few minutes, it was like listening to my favorite songs for the first time in my life. I started paying attention to things I hadn't noticed before.

    It took a lot of time to set up the guitar, because I became hypersensitive to the slightest dissonance. It was very interesting to play, but it was easy to sing along (next time you need to make a record so that you can listen to how good/bad it really sounded).

    P.S. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to try DiPT myself. Something similar to what I am reading happened to me when a psychiatrist prescribed me amitriptyline in combination with lithium (readers, do not try to repeat this experience! this effect is strictly individual and there is no need to eat medicines without a prescription at all – I was still treated).

    I've completely lost all the notes in different directions. I absolutely couldn't listen to music for more than a month – all the guitars, violins, saxophones and even synthesizers were stepped on by a bear. It was one of the worst months of my life, and amitriptyline did not achieve its goal of curing me of depression.

    How can you get rid of depression when John Lennon and Paul McCartney sing who goes to the woods, who goes to the firewood?
