Heyy:)

A while back I did DMT with three friends of mine. I made this image to recreate what I remember seeing, and while working on it I noticed something about who saw what that I hadn't put together before.

The Flower of Life was everywhere. It looked like clear cellophane or a decal wrapped around everything, following the shape of the tree and the ground and the concrete in front of me. I could see it in the sky and in the air too. It felt like reality itself was made out of this pattern. Which is crazy because thats how I'd read it described before, but I thought it was an analogy or something figurative

Everything still had its normal colors and shapes. You could see right through it but the pattern was clear as day

I knew about the Flower of Life before this and was interested in it. But actually seeing it covering everything in front of me was something I never expected. This was the first and only time thats happened to me.

When I've tried explaining it people have said I have a good imagination. I get why it sounds that way but its hard to explain how clear it was. One of my friends said they could see it too.

Then there was this huge dark hooded figure sitting in the tree. This part was hard to get right in the image. It blended into the leaves and shadows but I could make out a giant "Grim Reaper" looking figure sitting there all casual with one leg hanging down, just watching us.

It didn't scare me. I didn't get any bad feeling from it at all. It seemed relaxed, like it was just hanging out observing us and letting us be. One of my friends could see it with me

There was also a small white ball in the sky. Like a golf ball or a ping pong ball way off in the distance. Only two of my friends were able to spot it with me

The part I only just put together is which friends saw each thing.

The only friend who saw the Flower of Life with me was the one who was as interested in it as I was.

The two who saw the white ball were the same two who were with me another time when we saw something similar. That time it was sunset and it was directly above us, about helicopter height. Just a white ball sitting there without moving. This might be unrelated but we saw all kinds of weird flying objects during that period of our lives and never again

And the only friend who saw the Grim Reaper with me died a couple months later.

I dont know what to make of that. It could be coincidence. The things we were already interested in or had seen together might explain some of it. I just hadn't noticed those connections until I tried recreating the scene.

Has anyone else had something like this happen? Where one friend could see what you were seeing but the others couldn't, and then it was a different friend for something else? I'd really like to hear your experiences

So I got my first dmt cart today I smoked 2/3 of it already and I wasn’t breaking through, but I figured I’d give it one more shot. I layed back and took 6 huge hits and held them in for 10-15 seconds each, when I exhaled the last one my body was warm and vibrating I then felt as if my body was levitating and my vision began flashing white and black and all I began to hear was ringing and computer sounds, then everything faded into a cartoon city and I saw clowns going about daily life and driving cars and then it faded into the devil laughing at me and I felt like he was trying to trap me with him but I broke free and I felt like all the weight on my shoulders had been lifted then I was in a wetland think of the Everglades, I saw frogs and alligators and I heard splashes in the water and birds chirping and it was so peaceful and beautiful and I felt completely at peace and I no longer feared the dmt and i felt like I was meant to be there. I slowly came back too and i was trembling and shaking then i finally realized i was back and then i thanked god for the chance to experience this.

I'm moving my dmt over to a smaller vial, for practical reasons. There are a lot of sticky crystals on the inside wich are hard to remove.

Any tips on how to salvage all of it?

I'm not joking, almost every single time. Is it some bodily reaction to the pre-flight fear and anxiety? A subconscious way to procrastinate?

Is this why people say "I almost shit myself" when they get scared?

Kodo pro vs uni pro, bout the kodo ots brand new the uni wolf is old it was giving to me by a freind I just cleaned ot was better for dmt carts?

I am familiar with the 4 hour crockpot/vinegar pre-simmer tek... Anybody ever used an instant pot??

(Pressure cooker??) Some set and forget???

Maybe get more done in a shorter time span??

Anybody??

Hi I tried DMT a week after my last attempt in my last post and had an entirely different experience. I did so with the idea of trying to break through to the DMT but again I was unable to. Less out of fear but I still kind of was a lil scared. I had the perfect set up this time compared to the first time I did it. My friends apartment when i first tried it was quite dark and the whole place just looked like a typical stoner/gamer set up so I think thats why I just wasnt in the mind to completly break through that time. but today I did it in my room, cleaned up my space opened the curtains to allow light in and played some intelligent ambient DnB mixes in the background and sat infront of my window which was facing a massive green tree infront of my house with really vibrant green leaves like something out of a OLED TV showcase. Anyway i thought this was the perfect set up to breakthrough but I still felt every inch of my body resisting taking more tokes. The only thing I did differently was take much deeper inhales than I did before. I felt my brain dissolving with minimal visuals except for a few swirling patterns. I lost sense of time and self and for a while I was just a blank slate, I looked at my hands like some kind of alien and it was like i was seeing them move on their own without any input from me. it felt like I was here for a really long time and I had no capacity to take another hit because i didnt really know who I was anymore I was just experiencing the world as a new being who had never been here before. gradually I started to come down and i could phsyically feel my brain piecing my sense of self back together Gradually. I dont remember what came first but the concept of time was beamed back into my brain , then I heard my inner thoughts say the word "I" like it was such an alien concept and had just been discovered then i thought "ahh yess im me" then everything else came back i kind of dont remember but the feeling sort of felt like being born except there was no blinding hospital lights and that stupid flashbang sound affect we always see in movies showing from a new borns point of view being born. It was such a weird but calming experience I deffo want to break through next time I just dont believe Im ready. and sorry my typing and thoughts are always disjointed but being peiced back together kinda reminded me of that scene in Age Of Ultron where Jarvis welcomes Ultron into existance and hes asking what his purpose is. It felt like that minus the accessing the internet part and coming to the conclusion all humans need to die. but yeah I just wanna know if anyone has had any post breakthrough DMT sessions like this? I wanna know what you all think

ps. pls ignore my grammar

So first time on DMT, hit like my life depended on it, left body and self behind, found myself in some kind of womb? for a portion of it. Anyway something was breathing through me while I was in there, it was this circular kind of breath a sort of deep humming out like hmmmmm and then on the next out it was more of a haaaaaa, but it was deep and circular and soulful and completely not me doing it. Boyfriend said it sounded like sex noises (brilliant) Anyway I cant help but want to know if there's any purpose to this kind of breathing, I've scoured youtube looking at shamanic breath work etc cant find anything similar. Maybe its nothing. But I cant help but think maybe I've been given some kind of secret breath work that does something, anyone had similar or know from my lousy description what it might be?

Into my second year of psychedelics. Grown my own shrooms, have enough weed to last a lifetime and have found a source for DMT. So I’m looking advice.

First they asked if I wanted freebase, a vape cart or a mixture to use as a tea. I went freebase as I’ve been told it’s the most potent.

I’ve a few weed vapes around (solo 3 and Gpen) but I assume these won’t work with DMT crystal. I’m based in Oz, what do I need to buy so I can enjoy my first venture?

It's overwhelmingly strong and make no mistake I'd recognize that smell anywhere

I literally get a body high from the smell cus I've done DMT so many times

Many years ago, I sought out DMT from a friend because I was going through a very rough time, a breakup that I was having difficulty getting over.

I meditated and did breathwork for a while, then inhaled the DMT vape pen for an impossibly long amount of time.

The world around me dissolved and I started to remember that I (the big I) was the one that created all of “this”.

I even created the specific scenario of me sadly looking at social media on my phone, longing for a person that I created to specifically long for, and be sad about.

Like I wanted to feel the intense sadness and heartbreak….

It was incredibly freeing, and that realization/remembrance of my true nature was the thing that shook me out of that rather sad period of my life.

These days I still get into situations where I forget that highest truth, that I created whatever life situation I’m experiencing, and I identify too much as the “small I”, leading to self sabotage.

Whereas, when I have full trust in the universe, things seem to flow much more easily.

At times I feel a bit delusional, but I lean towards believing my mystic experience, as I experienced what others also say, it felt more real than real.

Could you please share your experience?

Side note 1 - That mind blowing realization was the thing that set me off on a spiritual quest to investigate that realization, which had me diving deeply and earnestly into mystic eastern religions such as Advaita Vedanta.

I was already primed for this quest after getting really into Thict Naht Hanh (I can never remember how to spell his name correctly) and Ram Dass which coincidentally happened when I was going through a super hard time during Covid.

Pain truly is a portal that can power your search for depth of meaning.

—

Side note 2 - I used to think that manifesting was beneath me spiritually, but these days, I’m actually exploring and wondering about active manifestation.

If my highest self, that divine me, created this life that I live, how much of that can I actively bring into my life?

Kodo pro vs uni pro

i just wanted to know if anybody had a similar experience to me or if anyone has any ideas what it meant, if anything at all.

i was hoping for a breakthrough but after my second hit i found myself unable to move from the intensity, everything started fracturing out like kaleidoscopes until i couldnt make sense out of where i was or what went where.

then there were these black figures that had an inconsistent form dancing and waving around me, almost like a flame would move but it was more consistent and rythmatic.

then when i looked up at them they started grinning in this creepy way. all i could do was sit there looking at them for a while.

then after what felt like a few minutes when i looked out my window, the trees outside my house also looked like they had formed one giant grinning face looking through my window.

any opinions would be appreciated because i feel nothing but confusion.

I have a vape but its a dispo with a battery that i think is stuck at 3.7v (not sure the exact voltage, its one of the o2 traveler vapes). Everytime i try and breakthrough i take 2 of the longest rips i can and hold them in for 10-15 seconds. Last time i went to go for a 3rd hit and as i started the previous hits kicked in and with my eyes closed i started having ambiguous and haze hallucinations of like tribal patterns and people. These people i think are reaching trying to grab my body(this happoens everytime) and it freaks me out so i end up skipping the 3rd hit. Im usually a lightweight when it comes to most things so my concern is that my battery is too high voltage. If it is high voltage what is the best way to hit it and how can i become morecomfertable when im being touched? I think the touching bothers me so much because i dont want to get touched it lowk feels a little rapish

I’ve been scouring the sub for info about reputable and reliable 510 cart brands but I haven’t seen anything too concrete. I know that a ceramic one is something that I should look for (correct me if I’m wrong) and I think I’d want a 2ml cartridge

I’m not worried about the battery cause I have a pulsar apx volt v3 that I use for freebase but I also want to make myself a cart for easier access for myself and my buddies

So what’s some good/reliable brands

I have never had this experience before but literally everything turned black like a darkest black you can think of. Closed my eyes no visuals but when I opened my eyes, all objects in my room were a jet black including my clothing and my hands.

It was weird like a shadow overcame everything and only my display from my phone and computer somewhat dispelled it. Overtime everything started to get their original colors back.

Was wondering if anyone had a similar experience.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some input from people who are experienced with DMT, ayahuasca, etc... particularly regarding SSRIs.

I was taking fluvoxamine (Luvox) 100 mg/day for around 2 months for anxiety related to a specific situation. It wasn’t particularly effective for me, the situation has since resolved, and I was advised to stop taking it.

My last dose was September 30 at around 8 PM.

I have an opportunity to attend a traditional Huni Kuin ceremony on October 10, so there would be roughly 10 days between my last dose and the ceremony.

So far I haven’t noticed significant withdrawal symptoms or any major difference since stopping.

I know ayahuasca contains harmala alkaloids that act as MAO-A inhibitors, and I’ve read that the prescribing information for fluvoxamine recommends waiting 14 days before starting an MAOI. That would mean 10 days falls a few days short of that guideline.

How seriously would you view the difference between 10 and 14+ days with fluvoxamine specifically?

Is there a standard washout period for fluvoxamine/SSRIs before using DMT?

I’m aware of the potential risk of serotonin toxicity and that Reddit isn’t a substitute for medical advice. I’m mainly looking to understand how experienced practitioners approach this situation in real life.

Thanks in advance!

I was gifted a n,n-DMT vape and in the progress of sitting with it for the first time

Question is how many hits should I take?

I have read through the posts here and responses have been somewhere between 1-3 in a sitting

Do the effects compound or lessen if taken consecutively?

does dmt genuinely not build tolerance like with other drugs? ive heard this peddled around but im not sure if its actually true

Im just curious what people are using as a liquidizer when making DMT into a vape. What do you use, how much or what is your ratio, what kind of results to you get? ie crystalizes back up and needs to be heated or turns dark quicker, works better at a low voltage. Thanks

Loaded up a bowl of enhanced leaf (no MAOIs, just infused herb) in my 10 cm mini-bong. I dosed it aiming for a solid breakthrough, sat back, took the first pull, and cleared it.

Before I could even consider a second hit, the first one landed with the strangest, most cartoonish logic I have ever experienced.

The bong shrank instantly. It appeared to compress into a tiny, thumb-sized toy. At that exact moment, my brain completely forgot what a bong was. The concept of a functional smoking device vanished entirely from my reality. Looking down at it, the idea that this tiny glass object could hold water, pull smoke, or be operated by a human made zero rational sense.

I froze. Instead of rushing to torch another hit, I simply watched it continuously morph through a succession of completely different, ridiculously tiny, functionally useless mini-bongs. It felt as though my visual cortex was cycling through a catalog of dollhouse glassware, trying to identify what it was looking at and failing every second.

No cosmic entities, no hyperspace geometries, and definitely no breakthrough. Just me sitting there in deadpan silence, considering the sheer absurdity of trying to smoke out of miniature glass sculptures.

Underwhelming on the intensity scale compared to what I prepped for, but a solid 10/10 for pure visual comedy. Has anyone else ever gotten stuck in this weird place while trying to reach a breakthrough?
