First DMT Experience

[princessxxleah]

Hi,

So this afternoon, I smoked DMT for the first time and it was disappointing. I did not breakthrough. I think the problem might have been the pipe i was using. I used a traditional glass crackpipe. When I exhaled the smoke I felt a warmth and coldness over my body and the room shapeshifting into weird colors...it felt sorta like the beginning of an acid trip but then it stopped. So i don't know the problem. I didn't measure the crystals...I used q21q21's tek. I did notice the crystals were very light and weightless and stuck together in a resin like feeling when I picked them up. What do u think i did wrong?

My advice would be to treat DMT as a journey, not a destination. A crack pipe can get you pretty damn far but it helps if you learn to walk before running.

You definitely need to weigh your DMT, if you only put 30mg in a crackpipe you're not going to breakthrough regardless.

Agree with buildersoftime though it's a journey, the first few times I tried DMT I was just watching the ceiling morph and my fingers melt into each other. I still find it hard to breakthrough without a harmala booster beforehand.

Your pipe will likely do you well just now but you may want to look into vaporizing in time as it's a more efficient use. There's certainly a lot of options & individual preferences on pipes, I tried a few: metal weed pipe with DMT in a bed of herb, crackpipe, mini-bong, lightbulb vaporiser, electric vaporiser, etc before settling on vaporgenie as my pipe of choice. There's a lot of options but some do work better than others, that said smoking technique will play a large part in it too & that's something you'll only pick-up by practice. You may just've not got enough into your lungs, or not held it long enough, but it's difficult to say as you don't know how much you put in the pipe to start with.

Can you expound on what you mean by that? I think if i understand you correctly you are right. I think in my mind I thought one breakthrough with DMT would cure all my problems and answer all my questions but now I realize that may have been a bit childish. One thing that experience did teach me is to look at a psychadelics more as the tool they are for mind expansion versus being a quick fix or something.
