136. What Does 5-MeO-DMT Do to Trust?

What does 5-MeO-DMT do to trust? April Pride reads from week two of her 12-week Trust Series: her first 5-MeO-DMT experience, approached with the intention of exploring where her self-trust broke down, and the brain science behind why distrust can feel like knowing. Topics include how 5-MeO-DMT differs from N,N-DMT, synthetic versus toad-derived 5-MeO-DMT, what the StepWise protocol is, and how fear conditioning, extinction learning, and estrogen may shape the way we trust.
