Are you struggling to get off Benzo drugs?
Ayahuasca has been noted back in 2021 as an instant cure for benzo withdrawal and addiction: https://inscaperecovery.com/blog/2021/2/15/ayahuasca-and-benzodiazepines
After I read that, my friend Oliver tried syrian rue itself (no need for dmt) and found it instantly bounced all the clonazepam off his receptors (no more effects felt from clonaz) and took away all withdrawal, permanently. I can't find any clinical trials but here is the theoretical basis for how the main water-soluble drugs in rue would help benzo withdrawals:

More research must be done to see how effective this is for different people on different doses of different types of benzos.
Keep in mind also that harmaline and harmine have different effects, and rue contains different ratios depending on season of harvest (I've heard in winter you get 1:1, in summer 2:1 harmine:harmaline ratios). You could also extract or buy the isolated harmalas to play around with for individual variability. Harmaline is more relaxing and dreamy, like indica w**d. Harmine is sort of a stimulating hypnotic, a bit more like sativa w**d. Then there's tetrahydroharmine, which you could make by boiling the rue for many hours to convert 50% of harmaline to THH. This THH is the most clear-headed of the harmalas. I don't yet have any understanding of how THH would be useful for benzo withdrawal but Oliver will try that soon maybe. He felt at some point that THH was better for emotional release than other harmalas, but it is far from clear due to interfering variables.
