Hi Penelope (or Dan). Welcome to the site! I just read your report of using 4-HO-MiPT to treat your insomnia and found it quite fascinating. You may have stumbled upon a new treatment modality for treatment-resistant insomnia via the serotonin-2a (or similar receptors). Are you familiar with mirtazapine? It's a pretty new psychiatric drug that also has serotonergic activity and sedative properties. There might be an unexplored connection here.
Would you be willing to do semi-scientific trials with unsubstituted MiPT and see if you get similar effects in the future? It could potentially have major implications in the treatment of sleep disorders. Please let me know your thoughts.
Best, Clarity
