The Basics

Introduction and Basic Description

DiPT is a psychedelic tryptamine with the unique effect of causing primarily auditory effects, with visuals only rarely appearing at higher doses.

Timeline of Experience

e.g. onset 0-30 minutes, peak T+0.30, plateau T+1, Afterglow T+4, end of experience T+6.

Effects

DiPT is known for causing primarily auditory distortions, though at higher doses it may also produce minor visuals, confusion, and lack of coordination. The auditory effects are dependent on dose, with smaller doses producing a phase-shift effect, and higher doses generally causing a massive shift downward in perceived pitch. In the media, the effects of DiPT are sometimes seen in depictions of psilocybin mushroom trips, where a character takes the mushrooms and complains that they don't feel anything but when they speak their voice has dropped pitch considerably.

Dosages

A light dose is 15-30 mgs, 30-75 mgs is common and up to 150 mgs considered a strong dose. Higher doses have an unpleasant side effect of causing inner ear pressure. When combined with MDMA, this side effect is increased and can be very painful.

Method of administration

DiPT is usually either insufflated or taken by mouth, though smoking has also been reported.

Slang

Problems

Contraindications and Overdose

Expand further here on dosage issues, also flag dangerous combos (DXM, MDMA) and combos which make the drug less effective (MDMA + prozac)

Negative Short-Term Side Effects

Mention side-effects experienced during the high/trip/experience e.g sleeplessness on stimulants, teeth grinding etc. Mention any means of preventing these.

Negative Long-Term Side Effects

Mention any possible risks such as memory loss or depression caused by MDMA. Provide citations. Remember our goal is harm reduction, so err on the side of being too cautious, but do be clear about how much evidence we have for a given claim.

Addiction and Withdrawal Issues

Harm Reduction

Explain how to avoid problems, as much as possible.

Legal Issues

Explain briefly the legal status of the substance, in as many jurisdictions as possible, but focus obviously on BL's userbase: the USA, Australia, the UK and Canada. Probably link to other pages which explain the drug classification system in that country - e.g. create a page which explains what the US schedules mean, and link to that.

Background and Chemistry

History of Drug

Brief history e.g. MDMA patented by Merck then basically forgotten, Shulgin synths it out of interest in its similarity with MDA. The Texas crew, then Ibiza, the Euros getting into it in a big way, link to rave culture, etc. Talk about current situation.

Chemistry

DiPT (DiIsopropyl-Tryptamine) is related structurally to DMT, with the Methyl groups replaced by Isopropyl groups. Another close relative is DPT, a psychedelic used as a religious sacrament by the NYC-based Temple of the True Inner Light. There are several analogues of DiPT which are or have been sold as research chemicals, including 4-HO-DiPT, 4-Acetoxy-DiPT, and 5-MeO-DiPT.

Pharmacology

Explain what the drug does in the body/brain.

Preparation

You wouldn't necessarily include this - possibly for drugs like crack where you have to put some effort into making them. You can include e.g. preparing ketamine powder from liquid, making crack from coke, etc. DO NOT include anything relating to synthesis! We're talking about taking a pre-existing drug and altering its form to make it easier/better to use, NOT making a drug from other chemicals.

Mechanism of Action

More ADD stuff, talk about neurotransmitters and GABA and SERT receptors and stuff.

Trip reports and links

Trip Reports

Probably a paragraph giving links to cool TRs here and on other sites. Don't re-write or copy/paste the whole trip report.
