Substituted tryptamines: Difference between revisions

Line 10:

In terms of [[subjective effects]], psychedelic tryptamines are generally regarded as producing a significantly stronger and "deeper" psychedelic effect than the other major class of psychedelics, the substituted phenethylamines (e.g. [[mescaline]] or the [[2C-x family]]). Users tend to report greater amounts of [[Ego loss|ego dissolution]], [[time distortion]], [[conceptual thinking]], and [[transpersonal]] effects such as [[unity and interconnectedness]] with substituted tryptamines. The reason for this is unknown. The subcategory of [[hallucinogens]] known as [[entheogens]] predominantly consist of tryptamines such as [[DMT]] (including [[ayahuasca]]), [[5-MeO-DMT]], and [[psilocybin]].

A systematic investigation of ~~dozens of~~ psychoactive tryptamine compounds was published by Ann and [[Alexander Shulgin]] under the title [[TiHKAL]] ("Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved") in 1997.

A systematic investigation of 55 psychoactive tryptamine and lysergamide compounds was published by Ann and [[Alexander Shulgin]] under the title [[TiHKAL]] ("Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved") in 1997.
