i wont go into details but i accidently overdosed on MAOI's yesterday, and i'm just worried about the long term effects (if any) this will have on my body, does anyone know? im also quite worried because i was convulsing very violently and my head got shaken about quite a bit and i had a severe headache this morning, would this have damaged my brain at all? i don't mean to sound stupid or anything, im just quite dazed at the moment and i'm not really sure what i should do. :crying:

How did you "accidentally" overdose?
well i had been royally stupid and trusted one of my friends, as we were supposed to take a drug called iowaska, but before that he told me i had to take some MAOIs to stop the enzymes from breaking down the chemicals in my brain so that it would have more of an effect. Only he managed to cock up the dosage and gave me too much, so lots of vomiting and covulsions ensued, and as i didn't have any clue what was going on i wasn't really able to get myself to hospital. My friends were fine although they were too scared at what was happening to me to call an ambulance :yeees:. Needless to say i wasn't very happy with them or myself this morning.
well she's right in that they need to get to the doctors/a&e isn't she?
*subzero* I think you've been lucky, but obviously if the symptoms persist, you should speak to your GP or whoever presribed the MAOI.
Ballerina-MAOI's are anti depressants
They are an old form of anti-depressant which has been over taken almost completely by SSRI's (prozac et al).
Because of their action they can react badly to a lot of things, you should be careful of your diet and never mix it with other drugs if you are taking a prescription for them.
However, in this case you are attempting to make DMT orally active by the sound of it, for this you do need an MOAI, but not a big dose. With things like this, dont just trust your mate, make sure you research and check all the doses yourself, its important.
I'm guessing the symptoms you experienced were because of a spike in blood pressure, which is the common side effect from MOAI, this would explain the headache. Be careful this can really dangerous.
