Kinda late but here is my little possession story. I was on MDMA and decided to take some DMT, the synergy with these 2 is awsome. I feel too much anxiety from DMT alone, but with MDMA I can take big hits and enjoy it alot. So this time, I was sitting on my bed looking at a large drawing I made, mostly some abstract art that almost looked like some kind of dragon in it. Anyway, a great thing to look at when you take psychedelic
So I take 3 big hits, and the drawing starts to go swirling, melting, dancing almost. And I can feel myself flying away from it. Like my perception, my vision was getting thrown away and the drawing was now "far away". (im french so bare with me)... What actually happened was just me slowly lying on the bed, on my back, I think. Then something weird happened. I never saw any entities on DMT, just beautiful visuals, both with opened and closed eyes. Once I felt like I was an embryo in a uterus, but nothing more. So this time, I still didn't see any entity, but instead, I felt one. I became one. My body was getting possessed by something. I still had my head pretty clear. I could think and I was like wtf is going on here. But I couldn't control my body at all at this point. The entity seemed really curious and was looking everywhere in my room. Then it started to want to move around but didn't really know how to. In a very strange way, it got out of the bed, my legs in weird position, exorcism style. I could see all it sees and I could analyze what was going on, but no control on my body. So it was then like crawling on the floor, not really knowing how my legs work. Then It got up, and started walking. One foot before the other, slowly, a bit like a bird walk. Also, my neck was going forward and backward while doing each step, still like a bird would do. And my arms were stiff behind me, my fingers twisted together. I felt all the awkwardness of my body, but couldn't do a thing about it.
So It started walking and exploring. It didn't have any thoughts, well not that I could "hear", so It didn't talk at all. But It kept using my tongue to lick my lips, a bit like a lizard, not really a bird this part. I wasn't terrified, MDMA puts you in this mood with no anxiety whatsoever (for me), but I wasn't enjoying it either. I was mystified, I had never heard or saw or felt anything like this before. A bit scared that it would stay in me, but at the same time I could reason myself and knew it would go away after the DMT effects. It had to...
It wanted to go out of my room but didn't know how. So at this point, the thing knew I was also in there and it let me take a bit of control on my body, like now I could use my right arm to open the door, but my neck and my legs were still theirs. The way it was walking, just, wow, I can't even reproduce it today.
So it went out, explore, at one point it looked at the mirror, and I saw myself. It was very awkward, it wasn't me looking in the mirror, but I could see. The entity didn't really care about what it looked like, I think it knew it was in my body and just wanted to enjoy the time and see the world. It seemed very curious, almost afraid. But wasn't just reflecting what I was feeling ? Like a duality thing ? Maybe, but that doesn't explain the way it moved around. It wasn't human at all.
I called my best friend to tell her what was going on with me (I was alone). So I could barely talk at this point (I couldn't before). It was still walking around the apartment, while I was describing this to my friend. I had no words. I told her not to believe me, cuz I wouldn't believe someone telling me this. Like I wouldn't believe your story lyricabuddy... but who cares, we can't believe things we never felt or never even knew could exist. Still, it happened, it was real. Usually on DMT, I lose my cognition, I can't think really for the duration, but this time was very different. I was still clear thinking. Just this entity controlling me.
After about 20-30 minutes, the entity was losing its power on me and I could take back my body more. My tongue was still licking my lips randomly. Oh I forgot to tell how it was drinking water. I kinda "ordered" it to go drink at the sink, I or It was thirsty, I could tell. So it went, let the water flow, then proceeded to drink like an animal, with its, my tongue, saping the water. All I could think was "right, what was I expecting ?". So after a while, it went away. I started to make some research and ended up here.
Here's the thing. At first I really felt like I had an entity possessing me. It was so real. I do auto-hypnosis when I take mescaline or lsd, and it works great. I was able to make some changes in my life like eating mushrooms, regular....not magic
. I was always disgusted by shrooms before. Anyway, point is I strongly believe that our brain is something very powerful, complex, weird, and tricky. Did I just hypnotized me ? I didn't try to at least. But guess what, after some thinking, I reread my story and the first thing was "i was looking at my drawing, a dragon"... a dragon ! Was it a bird or a dragon ? felt like a bird, and a lizard.. so makes sense now. I think what happened is that I hypnotized myself just by watching an abstract drawing that my brain knew looked like a dragon. Didn't need words or intention or thinking. The subconscious did all the job and convinced my brain to be a "bird/dragon". It convinced itself alright because I couldn't tell at all that this entity was in fact still me. I mean, I knew from the start that it didn't came from somewhere else, I knew it was from deep inside me, but it got me thinking for a bit that we could had some "alien" entity, demons ? angels ? ancient animals ? I believed it for a while, it had to, it made sense and I couldn't explain it any other way. But then my rational side finally put all the pieces together and no "alien" entity, just my brain tricking me !
Be safe with psychedelic, you never know what to expect and never know when it will be just 2 much for you.
