How to take DPT

Always test your substance with a Marquis Reagent Testing Kit before you put it in your mouth.

Administration

There are 5 main ways to take DPT: smoking, snorting, plugging the substance, or taking it intramuscularly.

Taking DPT by mouth is the most popular of these routes of administration.

Each of these methods will lead to a similar experience but the duration and the intensity of your trip will vary greatly.

Smoking DPT

Smoking is generally not recommended.

Not only are we not sure about the long-term effects of DPT on your lungs but the onset is also very fast. This may feel overwhelming and it is the reason why people tend to get less paranoid when they use the other routes of administration.

The easiest way to smoke the drug is with a glass pipe. Make sure that it ends with a ball. The bigger the ball, the better.

If you have a torch lighter that creates a blue flame, use it instead of a regular lighter.

Before you smoke the substance, put a metal tray or a ceramic plate next to you. The pipe will be hot and you don’t want to burn your carpet or set your neighborhood on fire.

If you have a trip-sitter, let him hold the pipe as you are inhaling.

Hold the fire 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) below the pipe. Rotate the pipe and wait for the drug to turn into smoke.

The smoke should be very light and clear. If it’s thick, you’re probably overheating the substance.

Inhale the smoke slowly and gently, then hold it in your lungs for as long as you can.

How to snort DPT

Split the dose into halves and snort the substance to both of your nostrils.

Lay down to not let the drug fall out of your nose.

How to plug DPT

Empty your bowels before you take the substance rectally.

Mix every 10 mg of the drug with 0.1 ml of filtered water. Let the drug completely dissolve into the water.

Use a 1 ml syringe, put the liquid into it and plug the substance into your a#s.

You need to put the syringe deep enough but not too deep either. What will help you achieve this is putting a rubber band around the 0.6 ml. That way, you will know when to stop.

After you pour the liquid into your system, wait for 1-2 minutes, then pour the syringe out and go lay on your bed or the ground.

Plugging seems to be the most efficient way to take the drug because it will allow you to trip for longer.

Some people don’t notice any effects when they plug the substance but this isn’t common.

Dosage

Whatever dose you are going to take, make sure to use an accurate, 0.001g scale or a micro scoop to measure your substance. Micro scoops are cheaper and might be more accurate.

Oral

50 mg = Threshold dose
75-150 mg = Light dose
150-250 mg = Regular dose
250-350 mg = Strong dose
350+ mg = High dose

Insufflated

5 mg = Threshold dose
20-50 mg = Light dose
50-100 mg = Regular dose
40-80 mg = Strong dose
80+ mg = High dose

Smoked

10 mg = Threshold dose
15-20 mg = Light dose
20-50 mg = Regular dose
50-100 mg = Strong dose
100+ mg = High dose

Since the drug is likely to cause an extremely intense experience, always start with a light dose and build your way up gradually.

Do not take a high dose if you don’t have a trip sitter nearby.

Your weight also influences the dose you should take to some extent. If you are overweight, you might need to take more of the substance than other people.

Safety checklist

Maximize the benefits

Integration is an important part of the experience although if you stay aware during your trip, it may not be as important as with other psychedelics.

What will help you the most to integrate the experience is contemplating about the experience – be it by journaling, thinking about the trip, or sharing your memories with a trusted friend.

Distracting thoughts can get in the way, which is why you want to spend the day after your trip without TV, social media, and other distractions.

If you can, spend time in silence and solitude. Meditate, go for a walk, contemplate the experience.

Duration

Smoked:
Onset = 30-60 seconds
Come up = 5-20 seconds
Peak = 10-20 minutes
Come down = 15-30 minutes

Insufflated:
Onset = 5-10 minutes
Come up = 5-10 minutes
Peak = 30-40 minutes
Come down = 2-4 hours

Oral:
Onset = 5-10 minutes
Come up = 5-10 minutes
Peak = 20-30 minutes

What DPT feels like

DPT is one of the most intense psychedelics in the world.

Compared to DMT, DPT tends to be stranger more confusing. DPT is also less enjoyable and more likely to cause a bad trip.

Users report DPT to be extremely psychologically difficult. Because of this, the drug is not recommended for beginner psychonauts.

The visuals are similar to those of DMT but less intense while the physical effects of DPT are more intense.

Users often report a strong vibrating feeling when they take the drug. While this can be pleasurable, most psychonauts do not enjoy this effect.

DPT can also act as a strong aphrodisiac.

Just like 5-MeO DMT, DPT is one of the best psychedelics for spiritual work and understanding the nature of reality.

It is common to feel like you’re dying when you take DPT.

This feels extremely threatening to your ego but if you wish to have a pleasant experience, you have to let go of your sense of self and surrender to the experience.

If you try to escape death, you will probably experience the most terrifying emotions you can imagine before the substance leaves your system.

If you surrender and face your death, the following minutes will be one of the most pleasant and most healing moments of your life.

People usually purge by screaming, shaking, and sometimes vomiting. This is why it is important to have a trusted trip sitter nearby.

Other short-term effects include:

Euphoria
Mindfulness, being extremely present
Extreme capability for love and compassion
Pain relief
Keeping your body in symmetry
Completely disconnecting from this reality
Feeling your emotions more intensely
Time distortion
Confusion
Increased body temperature
Increased heart rate
Anxiety, paranoia
Vulnerability

Of course, the higher dose you take, the more intense these effects will be and the higher the chance to reach a breakthrough.

With that said, the only way to truly know what DPT feels like is to try it.

The experience isn’t always positive. You can, however, minimize the chance of a bad trip.

Bad trips

Why they happen

The most common reasons for getting a bad trip are:

Rejecting to let go and trying to hold on to your ego and control the state
Tripping in an unsafe environment (in public, at a party, even nature doesn’t feel safe if you take higher doses)
Facing difficult times in your day-to-day life (a break-up, death of a loved one, …)
Being afraid of the trip (either because of the stigma around psychedelics or because you are not sure how pure your substance is)
Mixing the psychedelic with alcohol, weed, or other drugs
Expecting a bad trip (it can easily become a self-fulfilling prophecy)

How to cope with a bad trip

Do not perceive this experience as something bad, remember that facing these difficult emotions is extremely healing
Fully surrender to the experience, do not try to feel good

How to end a bad trip

In case the trip becomes extremely challenging and there is no one around you to keep you safe, consider ending your trip with a trip killer.

Using a trip killer usually is not the best idea because the bad emotions will stay unresolved and you will get little to no benefits from the experience. With that said, using a trip killer is smarter than harming yourself.

The 2 best options that you have for ending a bad trip are Phenibut and benzodiazepines.

Phenibut is generally safer. The downside is that it can take hours to kick in.

So to end a trip, use benzodiazepines but only do this if you completely have to.

Legality

As of 2022, DPT is illegal in the UK, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, and a few other countries.

While the drug is not scheduled in the US, you may still get in legal trouble for possessing it because of The Federal Analogue Act.

The drug is not scheduled in Canada and some European countries, where you can legally buy it from a reliable research chemical company for chemical research purposes.

In some of these countries, you cannot take the substance legally but whether or not anyone would care or find out is a different story.

Where to get DPT

Perhaps the best provider of research chemicals like DPT is Chemical Collective.
