Well, I learnt this tripping on DXM that it is possible to achieve the same experience without drugs. In the end, I've found psychedelics (especially with disassociation) lead me to an awakened state where I am aligned with all faces of me (this is after you get past the cool colours, etc. perhaps this is what people mean by "breaking through"). When that happens (let's call it an awakening) I find that with some self hypnotic suggestions I can put myself immediately into a trance state and access the memories of the trip and I go through the same experience of tripping.
