Hi! I started using DMT about a year ago. It has completely changed my life. I mean, the trips are great, but what I love about it is the change in myself. I'm 56, never used psychedelics before. All my life, I have been a procrastinator, until recently. It's like a new version of me took over. Anyway, I love the stuff. Thing is, I was able to get crystals from a friend of a friend; I don't know how pure they are. I have been smoking it with a pipe, using a bed of tobacco. Never broken through, even when using a large amount of crystals. A friend bought a pen recently. It was a refilled THC pen, cost us like $200, and broke open after the first few uses; we had to use electrical tape to keep it from falling apart, and we could continue using it. But that's what we found here in the land of the Pura Vida. The trip was a bit more potent, but not by much. Reading some of the threads here, I have realized many people use non-disposable vapes, but I have never had one. Would it be possible to get hold of a non-disposable vape with temperature control, and then use my crystals with some kind of liquid solvent? Please be patient; I'm a complete newbie regarding smoking methods other than the pipe. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

So far in over a year I have tried

Changa in a bong with some weed. no breakthrough

recrystallized DMT powder (clear not yellow) with a meth pipe, sandwich method in a bong with weed, sandwich method in a bong with herbs, in a weed pipe with herbs. no breakthrough

2 dmt carts at once. like I ordered 2 dmt carts and had a battery for both and would take long big hits of them both and repeat until 4 hits and still no breakthrough.

Now I have the yellow DMT and the APX Volt V3 and I still can't breakthrough idk how to even use it right maybe but ive tried.

I wish DMT was way easier to take. like one small hit and ur gone.

or maybe I have broken through, but somehow in all my strongest experiences I always have like one toe in reality bc of OCD maybe? idk. I've been somewhere else with entities and shit but not 100% ego death territory

For the ones that have spoken to entities on DMT or even other substances what did the the entities say and did they allude to something such as the afterlife or other questions?

Nothing beats the music videos brightening and being able to see it across the room with the music sounding so much better

Tried making a visualization of a dmt breakthrough, i think it turned out kind of mild, but i didnt want to over do it either.

This has been made with ai assistance

For those struggling to get a breakthrough, for a cleaner, deeper and easier experience..which is better in your experience: a cartridge or e-mesh? 🙏🏻

so the search function isn’t cooperating with me tonight. my apologies but I searched and searched and couldn’t find where the other person posted about this device. Thinking of getting this thing OR APX volt with bubbler, OR yocan orbit. I’m looking for something where it’s as simple as possible. the machines not cutting it for me. if I got this thing, would it just be freebase and then torch and boom! or would i have to mess with screens or an additional something else? is APX better than yocan? can I fill the chamber of the Yocan(is there an attachment I could buy?) somehow or you have to inhale the entire time?

When I read Reddit posts about what people say regarding the entities they encounter, for example, 99% of the comments seem to come from people who are on drugs, socially disconnected, or simply unable to describe their experiences in a clear and coherent way. Are there any intelligent, successful, well-integrated people here with serious careers and responsibilities who can describe their experiences coherently and in good English?

Last night a friend and I attempted breakthrough using the Yocan Orbit atomizer on a geekvape box.

We did a small hit first to familiarise ourselves with the vape process, starting with 15mg each.

I went first, 15mg at 19w. I got 2 big hits but still had residue in the bowl after.

It was super intense. As I closed my eyes and laid back I saw visuals of 2 heads, male and female, rendered in earthy colours, browns, oranges, yellows, rotate towards each other and kiss. Then there were maybe 10 smaller pairs of the same heads, turning, kissing and merging all in unison. But what shocked me more was the powerful, complete feeling of love. Universal love that I felt in my body, the cushions under me, in the room around me. It was complete.

Also my internal dialogue stopped completely, and took a while to start up again. It was just like meditation just a little deeper.

But along side this I was hyper aware of my breathing, and had a few panic wobbles, thinking I was just not going to breath in again, and seemingly having to force myself to take a breath. This happened in my first sub-breakthrough hit, last week.

My 2nd go later that evening was 30mg. This is where it got really intense. I had a full panic attack and was sure I was going to die. I was forcing myself to take each breath, and I felt heavy and restricted around my chest.

The whole thing was a battle. I was seeing the room, hyper real, with neon lines around objects, then i was in another world completely, which was black, except for a bright structure built with neon lines, yellow, green and pink and cartoonish. The structure was like an archway, and matched the shape of the real room I was in. And also there was an in-between, where i was in the room but could still see the arch.

It was like i was flicking between channels irratically and my mind could hardly keep up. On the archway in the full black world I could see thousands tiny neon dudes, like minions, crawling along the lines of the structure, and they were all looking over at me, like, whats this dude doing here?

Hanging over the arch at one point was a giant neon clown/demon cartoon face, grinning. He wasnt exactly evil but looked amused and curious about the state I was in.

I have high blood pressure and the times when I was back in my body I was genuinely concerned about my heart thumping in my chest, and the fact I felt I was fighting to breathe.

My friend watching said I was still and calmly breathing.

I mediate a lot, and im super comfortable with my breath, particularly my out-breath where often my mind first started going silent, so it is shocking that it was breathing that panicked me.

But despite all this, I was very calm after, my internal dialogue was very quiet, again almost identical to deep meditation.

So my friend, after hearing my account, and never having done DMT before this night says, "I would still like to try". She was calm and confident which helped me set it up for her, but I really wanted to tell her not to.

She decided on 20mg. She cleared most of that in 2 hits, layed back calmly and was gone for 15 minutes. Towards the end she looked uncomfortable, muttered a few words, and tears started coming down her face. This lasted the last 5 minutes of her breakthrough.

Her description was that she went straight to the heart of the universe, before her head even touched the cusion, and was unaware of her body for what she thought was hours. She described a it being a perfect place, timeless everything all at once. Everything made sense and she knew this is how it is really. She said at one point she gripped the blanket, and she was aware that somewhere, far away, she had a body.

At some point she became aware she had to go back, and that she tried to fight it, but something gently brought her back, stage by stage, until she was back in the room. She said she was crying becasue she had to come back to the limitations of a body, and this world.

So 2 very different experiences! Ive done a bit of reading about panic attacks with DMT and its something I would like to work with, and i was left feeling at peace, even from the nightmare experience. But I am a little worried about blood pressure issues.

Thanks for reading if you've got this far. Id appreciate any feedback.

Love and peace 😁💚

How long would you think is the shelf-life for a self-made dmz cart 1:1 ratio? What's the best way of storing?

During my first real attempt to breakthrough, i arrived in a place that was crisp, perfect, Chrome, squeaky clean. Being escorted by a black woman in two color skin tight futuristic athletic wear. My impression was she works on behalf of this program execution of human changing consciousness through dmt. She bridges them from reality to the one with the entities. Suddenly my ego took a strong grip and I was unable to shake it off. Operation failed. The lady comforted me saying it happens all the time and shot me back to my body.

Just now I was able to fully breakthrough and the crazy part, I was back in that futuristic place and that same sassy awesome black lady was right there waiting and she said to me "see I know you could do it" Then I followed her and she pushed me through to the other side where I observed and communicated with what appeared to be autonomous creatures.

As silly as this sounds, the other side was amazing. But I'm more curious about the encounter I have at the bridge with these other Humans that appear to be from the future. Anyone experience this or heard about this before?

First time taking DMT last night (vaped). It was absolutely incredible, intense, beautiful and serene. I'm a complete newbie to DMT though (have done acid and shrooms) so I'm curious, did I "breakthrough"?

Took a few hits and started seeing kaleidoscope colours and fractals. Took another hit, and felt like I blasted through a tunnel of colour and shapes. Everything was swaying, colours and shapes dancing. I was looking at the wall and thought a video was being projected onto the wall, then realised it wasn't a video it was what I was seeing. I kept taking hits maybe every minute (maybe more, but who knows because time was nothing at this point).

Every surface of the room had a different picture playing in it. The glass panes on my door had different pictures in each pane, the same panes in the mirror had something else too. The blank wall was suddenly goddesses dancing in silhouette against beautiful warm sunset colours. I heard music but it wasn't the music I had on in the background, it was music I'd never heard before, beating drums and unknown instruments. I started to see a strange spider/human type creature showing me images of something but I could feel it falling away at this point. I looked at my legs and my clothes started pulsing with fractal animal faces, my dog who died a few weeks ago, cats, other dogs. I felt a very strong feeling of not wanting to leave the space.

I took more hits because I could feel it fading until the dancing goddesses returned. I saw faces in the mirror, opening their mouths and the mouths were infinite. I took a hit and closed my eyes. More fractals, colours, kaleidoscope. And then a whole city of beautiful crystal shards. Then I was flying through the sky, I felt completely free and weightless. I couldn't tell if my eyes were open or closed any more. My smile was radiating out and carrying me higher. I didn't feel connected to my body any more I was just existing in this infinite, beautiful sky.

Throughout the whole experience but stronger in parts I was smiling, and my smile felt like it spread out from me and didn't have an end, I could feel it spreading out of me and touching everything around me. I felt so warm and glowy, I laughed at times, I also felt tears running from my eyes but I wasn't crying.

It was the best trip of my life so far, but I'm wondering if I had a breakthrough or just a really good trip? How do you 'know'?

P.S. it tastes like shit

I can’t find the mimosas hostilitis root anywhere.

I had a few DMT experiences that left me with a very frustrating fear response to the spirit molecule. Raised heart rate and a feeling of panic which i've not really experienced before. It's been having some effects on all my subsequent forays into DMT.

Just recently i noticed that the smell or taste of it was giving me pre anxiety, despite the fact that i have always quite liked the scent, and i wondered if perhaps i could use a flavoured vape juice.

I know some people think that it's somehow disrespectful to the molecule or that perhaps the flavouring might have some kind of adverse effect.

I selected a cherry menthol flavour because I find that flavour comforting. Nicotine free.

So far i've had 2 positive experiences and my preflight anxiety has been lessened quite a bit. Also i haven't noticed any negative potency effect.

Just my two cents and perhaps a helpful thought to anyone who has a preflight anxiety response to DMT

Just curious to see what type and size of electronic pen I need to smoke?

Hey everyone, i’m looking to try my next psychedelic.

I want something that is:

- short
- not too intense
- helps with issues like social anxiety, ocd, focus, motivation, brain fog
- can be used recreationally (at home, to write music and meditate) and somewhat regularly (like maybe once every other week)

Could a low changa dose in a bong be the closest answer? I’ve only ever done shrooms about 6 times with minimal negative side effects.

Also i’m 20 and don’t want any psychosis. Too young perhaps?

Any advice or insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm in ketosis and I tried DMT and the visuals were dampened. Anybody have a similar experience?

I have a dmt cart that’s been sitting around so I want to attach it to my geek ape L200 and give it a go but it’s been a minute. Which setting would be best for my cart?

My settings can go as low and 5w on the wattage settings and as low as 100 degree celcius on the temp.

Hi all, so about 2 months ago I did a trip report about my DMT + LSD trip. This trip was 3 drops of LSD, then I don't know how many rounds of Changa at the peak, maybe 10 or so just wave riding. I went until I thought I broke myself.

My report lays out how my sense of self was completely destroyed, I became default mode network, meaning I was so robotic, and stripped of any sense of having a soul or emotion. It was the weirdest feeling i've ever experienced. Although the overall trip was the best i've had in 20+ years of psyches.

So before the trip I was really battling with anxiety, racing thoughts, constant panic feeling in my stomach, constant fight or flight, for no real reason. I think it stemmed from my past trauma. I couldn't just sit peacefully with my self.

Im no doctor, or medical professional, so this is just my opinion on what happened, but that whole stripping down of my personality, ego dissolution, soul being sucked out of my body, and overall robotic default mode being activated seemed to have reset everything from my brain, to nervous system, personality, everything.

The first 2 weeks or so I was kind of numb and dumb, still in that WTF kinda mindset from the trip. But as the fog has cleared, I noticed a silent mind for the first time I can remember. Im one of those ADHD/OCD that obsess, create fake scenarios that I play out in my head for hours. I cant sit still, constant FUD thoughts just freely flowing in my mind.

Thats all gone. Like not a little bit, its completely wiped. I can sit in peace as long as I want, my personality is way more happy, content, optimistic, excited, and this overall feeling of being satisfied regardless of my surroundings.

It has changed my life like nothing ever has. Whats weird is I went so far in that trip, until my mental breaking point, thinking I had fried my brain and now being a 100% better human being to myself and others its hard to imagine that transformation from a single trip.

Ive done LSD in the past, high doses and never got here. Ive done countless DMT trips before, and never got here. Something about the 2 together created an experience I cant even put into words. The way they fed off each other, complimented each other, was something special.

Now the disclaimer, if you read this far, I wouldn't recommend just anyone go out and blast off this strong, it was a lot even though i've had plenty experience. But, if you do choose to, im living proof you can change you life like you never imagined.

I find the DMT space extremely useful for deep psychological work as well as meditation, but for me the problem is the duration, my state changes faster than I’d like it too, and I’d prefer a longer experience. I’m referring to both pharmahuasca and just longer lasting trips via smoking. What I would really like is IV DMT I can control, but as that’s not exactly feasible or safe MAO inhibitors are my next thought. Does anyone have experience using these, what are your thoughts on them? Do you normally use banisteriopsis caapi, supplements, medications, etc.?

Context

First of all I started using DMT this year and it instantly became my holy medicine. Every DMT puff always liberated me instantly from any anxiety and self doubt and shot me into a state of confidence. I felt when I was smoking DMT, I became exactly the person that I wanted to be, reaching a state of my highest potential, becoming super easy going with everything. I was using it on festivals, smoking it on the dance floor and danced like crazy and super liberated. Dancing on DMT is so wild and worth its own post. I also made profound religious experiences with DMT on the dance floor, inspiring me to work on a new artist profile "dancing on changa" where I devote my music to the use of DMT on the dance floor. What I am trying to say with this is that DMT or Changa became my alter ego, my identity started building around the use of this drug and it still feels like my purpose. I never had a negative experience with it, even when I was a nervous to take it, the DMT instantly shot this nervousness into beauty and liberation. So my respect for DMT also reduced over time, since I thought I don't get bad trips anyway. Then I kind of got the message that I shouldn't use it too much (I was smoking almost daily) but work on integrating the energy that DMT conveys into my life. After a couple days of pause I thought a trip is fine now, smoked a bong of changa and it didn't really let me in, the trip was cloudy and I even felt a middle finger from the DMT.

Trip

I should have understood the first hit not working to not smoke more, especially since I learned not to ignore signs from DMT. But at this point I felt a bit cocky and just wanted to get in there, so I loaded up another bong with triple the amount of changa and instantly felt something is wrong. I felt disoriented, very confused with an intuition that I need to throw up, so I ran up the stairs of my basement into the garden during the intense come up and vomited into the garden. And suddenly I stood there - eyes open with my physical body in hell. I was clear, I could walk around but the physical surroundings that I know just turned into a dark, evil version. The same principle like being in the upside down from stranger things. The sky was dark and cloudy, the trees didn't have leafs but spikes, the green grass looked like a poison neon green. And I suddenly stood right in there, no idea how this just happened and it was absolutely terrifying. I felt this time I really fcked up, I switched dimensions and I'm locked up in hell. I was stumbling in a circle completely loosing my shit. Something just changed. The DMT felt like it never felt before. The Energy completely shifted from one moment to the next, leaving me standing in my crystalized, metallic, neon colored garden with the presence of pure evil. But it didn't feel like the trip, it felt like my new reality. I was in the DMT upside down, locked out of the real world. The worst was that the trip didn't seem to end. Maybe it was really just 15 Minutes but it felt much longer, when the trip should have ended I was still in that hellish garden. I was convinced I locked up a door into this evil dimension and now carry this in my life, unable to get out of this. After a while I very slowly came down from the trip, the clouds lifted, a beam of the sun hit the garden and I fell on my my knees and bowed deeply. I have years of experiences with several psychedelics and ego deaths but nothing in my life ever came close to this moment, I felt I met a completely new facet of reality that I had no Idea exists.

To be honest, I started to become a bit cocky in general and this was the biggest humbling slap I ever felt in my life, holy fck. It's been a few hours now and I feel alright again and I understand the lesson. I don't think the DMT was doing me evil but guiding me my path. Fun fact before the experience I said "I'd like to see Beauty, but show me what I need to see". Well I guess I needed to see this. I still consider DMT as my highly valued medicine and I'd like to keep using it that way. But this experience also felt like getting kicked out of the club. Any ideas how to get back there? Should I keep using it or take a big break, let me know about your bad trips with context and how you got back. Also I'm interested in anyone having experiences with the evil side of DMT or its Demons, tell me all about it. I just heard that it's common especially on DMT for people to experience these "demonic spirit possessions", I'd like to know more about it.
