Better Living Through Chemistry Discussions of any and all sorts of mind-warping chemicals, pills, booze, mind machines, trippy stuff, current street prices, importing pharmaceuticals, smart drugs, nutrients, herbs, and altered states. Please try to keep your conversations "theoretical" in nature, since this is an open conference.

Default MAOIs and PEA

Amphetamine.

Alpha methyl phenylethylamine, right?

IIRC, the methyl group does nothing except act as a kind of 'local' MAOI to prevent PEA's breakdown.

So, the question idea occurred to me, shouldn't there be some kind of 'sweet spot' dosage of a broad, unselective MAOI that would make OTC PEA supplements feel very similar to amphetamines?

I'm only suggesting this because I have a bunch of midterms\essays coming up and no adderall to help out.

Obviously, the risk of some kind of hypertensive crisis would be pretty high in this scenario if you took too much MAOI or PEA, hence the need for a 'sweet spot' dosage...any reason why this wouldn't work?

A'aight.

Step 1...

"Beta-phenethylamine itself is only active when smoked or snuffed not by injection nor by mouth. This explains why Shulgin found no activity. Both active methods are painful and possibly sensitise or otherwise damage the tissues they expose. The stimulation and euphoria produced are pleasant but mainly cerebral. Dose > 100mg in a softhead gave noticeable euphoria for 30 minutes and some stimulation for two hours. The simplest synthesis is destructive distillation of phenylalanine with soda lime but the product is a bit messy though cheap."

Use the tryptamine-established route.

(quoted original has dropped off the 'net, sadly)

Step 2 :
Keep the MAOIs as low as possible. They're the danger here, folks. A low-enough dose might be withstandable, but probably not any dose you'd refuse to take without the PEA...

Let us know how the excursion goes.
