While DMT is not the most well-known drug, this psychedelic substance is growing in popularity. Below, learn more about what DMT is and whether or not DMT is addictive.
What is DMT?
DMT is a hallucinogenic drug found in ayahuasca, which is used for religious ceremonies in many South American countries. Ayahuasca use is growing in popularity because many people want to have the spiritual and transforming experience that this drug promises. DMT can cause people to hallucinate, in addition to other powerful physical and psychological effects. Users can snort, smoke, or inject this drug. Those who use it in religious ceremonies, also brew it into a tea-like substance and drink it. DMT is illegal to use in the United States.
Is DMT Addictive?
Many people wonder whether DMT is an addictive drug or not. While this drug is not physically addictive, people can feel cravings or addiction to the psychological effects that it produces. Also, even though DMT is not physically addictive, that does not mean that it is not dangerous. In higher doses, DMT can lead to issues like seizures, coma, and respiratory arrest. Someone who is abusing DMT and wants to stop may need assistance from a drug recovery program like the one offered by United Recovery Project.
