Mushrooms and Syrian Rue (MAOI)

Has anyone tried to consume syrian rue (harmal) or another MAO inhibitor to potentate the trip, and make it stronger?
What kind of doses would you recommend?

I'm sure quite a few people here have done it, but i personally wouldn't at all. Mixing psychedelics that last long alone with Strong MAOIs can be risky territory. Lighter MAOIs are less risky. Hmm, like st johns wort tea (2 tablespoons stewed in hot water of St Johns wort should do the trick) has helped increase what i take normally and seems to make it a bit more intense. (some argue that st johns wort is not a MAOI at all, but meh it seems to work a bit for me)
If you've had shrooms before, maybe take 1/2 to 3/4 of what you'd usually take if you're gonna have syrian rue.
Additionally - check out erowid.org for stuff not to mix with MAOIs.

I use about 2.5 grams on rue. I grind it up and make a tea with it. Normally i boil off most of the water and add it to some arizona. Ive had 5grams of shrooms with 2.5grams of rue and it was a blast.
Just be prepared for a longer trip and possibly more intense. i wouldnt say intense just different. i def plan on doing it again.

I recently extracted syrian rue with rubbing alcohol, put 3g worth of extract into a capsule and took that with 3g of mushrooms. It was awesome.

Harmal and harmaline are both selective (MAO-A I) and reversible, so I understand that they are safer as there is a lower risk of "cheese syndrome".
Either way, how long before and after consumption of syrian rue should one maintain a tyramine free diet?

I have used syrian rue + mushrooms before. I simply grind up the rue and add them to vegan gel capsules. After 30 minutes or so, I consume the mushrooms (5 dried grams + rue).
The experience is intense. Expect a certain shift in visuals toward the more clear. The rue makes you more lethargic and prone to just lay down and close your eyes to further experience the visions. The rue is calming. So, lay down and close your eyes.
It is incorrect to say that rue makes a mushroom trip more stronger, rather the rue makes the trip characteristically different and more like ayahuasca or a stretched-out DMT flash. Mushrooms visions by themselves seem blurry, but with rue, they are clear.
Be very careful when dealing MAOIs. Read everything and follow the directions carefully. They are not for casual tripping.

Hmm, yeah, but i've seen it descibed as a weak maoi as well. But so has the cocoa bean, and a few other commonly consumed products. Just cos something is generally classed as one thing, does not mean its not another as well, the plant world is diverse. Even Hordenine has been described as a "hangover cure" and that occurs in many types of cactus.

ive heard that passiflora is about 80 times weaker than syrian rue, and that for it to really act like a proper maoi, you need to consume upwards of 12 dry grams
btw do you smoke the leaf or the flower? im going to be buying an "incense" cultivar to grow in my room

For the reasons you outlined, to go the passiflora route you need to make an extract.
There's a Gracie & Zarkov about this somewhere (erowid probably?)

ya passiflora is a relaxing smoke in its own right, but in order to use it as an maoi u have to use a lot
stick to aya and rue

Oh, and passionflower leaf is the part that is used, I believe.
