'''4-HO-MET''' ('''4-hydroxy-N-methyl-N-ethyltryptamine''' or '''metocin''') is a lesser-known psychedelic drug. 4-HO-MET was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), the dosage is listed as 10-20 mg.[1] Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 4-HO-MET.
=SCONEZY=
==Subjective effects==
The effects listed below are based upon the [[subjective effects index]] and personal experiences of [[PsychonautWiki]] [[Special:TopUsers|contributors]]. The listed effects will rarely (if ever) occur all at once, but heavier dosages will increase the chances and are more likely to induce a full range of effects.
===Physical effects===
The physical effects of 4-HO-MET can be broken down into several components which progressively intensify proportional to dosage. These are described below and generally include:


=Chemistry=
*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous tactile sensations]]''' - The "body high" of 4-HO-MET can be described as a pleasurable, warm, soft and all-encompassing tingling sensation. This maintains a consistent presence that steadily rises with the onset and hits its limit once the peak has been reached.
It is a structural− and functional analog of [[psilocin]] as well the 4-hydroxyl analog of [[MET]].
*'''[[Effect::Sedation]]''' - In terms of its effects on the physical energy levels of the tripper, 4-HO-MET is considered by most to be relaxing, stoning and mildly sedating. This sense of sedation is often accompanied by compulsive yawning.
*'''[[Effect::Nausea]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Pupil dilation]]'''


=Pharmacology=
===Cognitive effects===
The cognitive effects of 4-HO-MET are described by many as somewhat relaxing, yet fast-paced in style with similarities to [[psychedelics]] such as [[LSD]] or [[2C-B]] which tend to be cognitively energetic and stimulating. The drug contains a large number of typical and unique psychedelic cognitive effects.


=Subjective effects=
The most prominent of these typical effects generally include:
-visuals similar to DMT
 
-less mentally deep than 4-aco-dmt?
*'''[[Effect::Emotion enhancement]]'''
-less confusing than shrooms, 4-aco-dmt
*'''[[Effect::Thought connectivity]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Thought acceleration]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Novelty enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Immersion enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Time distortion]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Analysis enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Thought loops]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Personal bias suppression]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Conceptual thinking]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Subconscious communication]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Memory suppression]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Ego death]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Feelings of interdependent opposites]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Delusions]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Unity and interconnectedness]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Wakefulness]]'''
 
===Visual effects===
A noteworthy aspect regarding this compound is that at sub-psychedelic doses, it appears to still produce visual effects, without any accompanying cognitive effects or "head space".
 
====Enhancements====
4-HO-MET presents a full and complete array of possible visual enhancements which generally includes:
*'''[[Effect::Visual acuity enhancement|Acuity enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Colour enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Pattern recognition enhancement]]'''


====Distortions====
As for visual distortions and alterations, the effects experienced are detailed below:
*'''[[Effect::Visual drifting|Drifting]]''' ''([[Visual drifting#Melting|melting]], [[Visual drifting#Flowing|flowing]], [[Visual drifting#Breathing|breathing]] and [[Visual drifting#morphing|morphing]])'' - In comparison to other psychedelics, this effect can be described as highly detailed, cartooon-like in style, slow and smooth in motion and static in appearance.
*'''[[Effect::Tracers]]'''
*'''[[Effect::After images]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Symmetrical texture repetition]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Colour shifting]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Scenery slicing]]'''
====[[Effect::Geometry]]====
The visual geometry that is present throughout this trip can be described as somewhat similar in appearance to that of [[Psilocin]], [[4-AcO-DMT]] and [[4-HO-MiPT]] but with far stronger synthetic digital undertones reminiscent of [[LSD]] or [[2C-B]]. 4-HO-MET can be comprehensively described through its [[Geometry#Variations|variations]] as intricate in complexity, abstract in form, equally synthetic and organic in style, structured in organization, extremely brightly lit and multicoloured in scheme, glossy in shading, sharp in edges, large in size, fast in speed, smooth in motion, angular in corners, non-immersive in depth and consistent in intensity. The visuals have a contradictory "natural" and "synthetic" feel to them which is reminiscent of both [[LSD]] and and [[Psilocybin]]. Higher dosages are significantly more likely to result in states of [[Effect::8A Geometry|level 8A]] visual geometry over [[8B Geometry|level 8B]].
====Hallucinatory states====
4-HO-MET and its various other forms produce a full range of high level hallucinatory states in a fashion that is more consistent and reproducible than that of many other commonly used [[psychedelics]]. These effects generally include:
*'''[[Effect::Transformations]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Internal hallucinations]]''' (''[[effect::autonomous entities]]''; ''[[effect::settings, sceneries, and landscapes]]''; ''[[effect::alterations in perspective]]'' and ''[[effect::scenarios and plots]]'') - This effect is very consistent in dark environments at appropriately high dosages. They can be comprehensively described through their [[Internal_hallucinations#Variations|variations]] as lucid in believability, interactive in style, new experiences in content, autonomous in controllability, [[Effect::geometry]]-based in style and almost exclusively of a personal, religious, spiritual, science-fiction, fantasy, surreal, nonsensical or transcendental nature in their overall theme.
===Auditory effects===
The auditory effects of 4-HO-MET are common in their occurrence and exhibit a full range of effects which commonly include:
*'''[[Effect::Auditory enhancement|Enhancements]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Auditory distortion|Distortions]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Auditory hallucinations|Hallucinations]]'''
