5-MeO-DMT, First Time, I've decided to kill myself

[illuminati boy]

id just like to point out that .. although im sure you have appreciated this already illuminati boy .. that the weighting of reports at erowid for good vs difficult cant really be used as a trusted determinant of numbers experiencing good or difficult times with the drug as there may well be bias on the part of those that have decided to submit a report there ..

Actually one has gone through and calculated percentages for most of the Research Chemicals that have a fairly large number of reports. The average ratio of ‘good; reports’ (Glowing + Mystical Experiences) to ‘bad reports’ (Difficult Experiences + Health Problems) is 1.16 to 1 for the 1705 reports that one looked at. While Erowid probably engenders a not inconsiderable response bias, when you start to get around 100+ reports for a given substance you do start to get a feel for the range of possible effects (though again the proportions are likely skewed).

Still, in the case of the data regarding 5-MeO-DMT noted above, it appears that anecdotal experience, Bluelight reports, and Erowid reports are all in the same ballpark; namely 25%, 50%, 25%. That is to say something akin to a quarter of persons have really bad reactions sometimes with prolonged after-effects, about a quarter of persons have effectively little to no physical or longer-term side-effects, and about half of persons are somewhere between the two camps.

But all this is quite academic, the original intent of the initial post was just to show that abreactions to 5-MeO-DMT are not exceedingly rare. One thinks that the earlier post served its purpose in that regard.

Yeah i'd tend to think it was probably too high of a dose also,

Also, reading reports about DMT on erowid, or here, or wherever on the internet, make DMT look pretty 'scary'. When in reality, 100% of people that have tried mine, LOVE IT! I think certain people tend to want to report on more intense experiences / life changing / etc.

I've never read anything in any report about DMT and its incredible sex enhancing properties.. thought I was alone.. until many friends or aquantences tried it and on their own said something similar (or sometimes i'd ask).

Always thought DMT was the 'big daddy', the scariest of them all, the big man, tough psychedelic, when I really don't think so at all.

5-MeO-DMT also suprised me in that I just happened to love it (and most friends, properly measured doses!).
