Hello, I made a thread before about how my DMT was giving me undesirable physical effects like pins and needles and numbness. Instead of doin a sodium carbonate wash I just dissolved the goo extracted from ACRB in IPA then sucked it into a syringe. Afterwards I removed the needle and inserted a piece of coffee filter with a chop stick (to make a filter cup instead of crumbling it up and obstructing the syringe); then I squirted the solution back into a pyrex dish (takes a while due to pressure from the filter obstruction). I did this a few times then dried the results on a pyrex dish. The goo became brighter in color, and when smoked there was no discomfort whatsoever (had fascinating Waking Life like visuals).
Does lye not dissolve in IPA or something? I cant be 100% sure that the numbness and discomfort was an effect of the lye (or maybe in my head). I have heard people say that they experience a sharp pins and needles type numbness right before they breakthrough (I havent broken through yet).
