Just wondering if anyone had tried using (VERY LOW) doses of 5meoDMT to combat cluster headaches. I read the post below about DMT and it made me think of 5MEODMT, which I have used several times. It is a powerful hallucinogen in small amounts (3 mg or more), but I wonder if small amounts could be of assistance, as this substance has a similar structure to psilocybin, and is also produced naturally by the human pineal gland.
5meodmt is a legal substance that can be ordered from chemical suppliers. I have ordered it from the one listed below. Another one is www.jlfcatalog.com, but i think they are more expensive.
5MEODMT looks like salt and the dose should be measured in grains. 3 milligrams looks like NOTHING but is a powerful experience. It is a powerful hallucinogen and 20 milligrams kicked my butt to oblivion. I'm thinking for cluster headaches, perhaps 1 mg could have a positive effect. This chemical bonds to the same sites as psilocybin.
Info about 5meodmt can be found HERE

I hope this turns out to be a legal alternative to psilocybin. I dont suffer from cluster headaches, but have researched tryptamines in depth and have reason to believe that the effect of this chemical would produce the same results as psilocybin.
