^^ What they said.
I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability from my own experience (which is limited), what's been shared by others, and my own research.
1)Yes and yes. The onset of vaped DMT is within seconds. Orally, at least 30 minutes.
2)Dosing orally is not the same as vaping. When vaping, 5mg can make a huge difference. Not so much with orally active DMT. It's easier to dose for the experience you're looking for. If you start low, 30mg should be pretty mild and a good starting point. You can always redose later if you like.
3)Yes and no. They take on a different character and form, but can still be real wild.
4) Not sure on that one.
5)Low level experiences kind of remind me of mushrooms. Still VERY different though.

What if the "truth" is: the "truth" is indescernible/unknowable/nonexistent? Then the closest we get is through being true to and with ourselves.

Question everything... including questioning everything... There's so much I could be wrong about and have no idea...
