Alcohol with DMT (or any other psychedelic)

Im talking a moderate amount of alcohol here. What do you guys think of it? Anyone tried it? I'm interested because of alcohol's dissociative effects. I'm not expecting a profound experience, just an odd one. Is it worth trying?
 
I don't feel the effects of alcohol that much when I trip. The taste of a cold one is very good though!
 
For me adding alcohol makes whatever visuals I'm getting kind of blurry and will slightly reduce any body load I may be feeling. I'd say it does more to dull the trip than enhance it though. I do know at least one person who loves drinking heavily while tripping, so it may be worth trying once to see if you like it.
 
I find that if I consume a rather large quantity of wine (1.5L last time) prior to dosing psychedilic substances enhances my experience. This has only worked with wine, not beer or liquor. And only if done just prior to tripping
 
I'll drink 2-3 beer before taking shrooms or a Tryptamine; not because I am trying for anything specific....I just love beer. However it is like a switch being thrown; when I start to come up, the desire for a beer is gone. Completely. 2-3 or 4 hours later or whenever I'm coming down some magical gnome rethrows the switch and an ice cold beer tastes like a reintroduction to the world.

When I'm peaking/plateauing, it tastes very meh.

When I said moderate amount of alcohol I meant moderate in terms of being pretty damn intoxicated but not wrecked.
 
To take the edge off it might be a decent idea but I wouldn't expect some kind of combo experince. I hate to generalize but alcohol has got to be one of the least "mind blowing" drugs out there, why even bother mix? I know everyone isn't my dumb friend but... My dumb friend thought it would be a good idea to drink and drop acid. He got way too smashed totally ruined the experience, he didn't know WTF was going on and eventually passed out.
 
I like drinking beer or vodka on acid. I usually get real edgy on moderate doses, and or on the comedown of small ones, so its nice. Or just for fun.

Alcohol increases GABA in the brain. GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter. So it reduces serotonin and dopamine. so it will reduce visuals and such. Woot woot.

I know about that. But what made me interested was that is is also an NMDA antagonist, like Ketamine. Personally when I take other depressants (Xanax for example) during a trip it never fully takes away the psychedelia, so I was thinking alcohol could have novel effects when mixed.

But I don't know, the large majority seems to hate this combination.
 
there was a party and we were rolling on mdma and there was 20 litres of raki (a 46-50%alc) and we were hevily drinking all the party .. im not very social especialy on psychedelics but at this party i was pretty social very euphoric and my heart felt more comfortable i got mostly mindtriping(the feeling of one controling the music or telepathic conection to others or etc..) and the feeling of tripines but no hard visuals just strong perseptual enchansment , it didnt felt to calm the trip alot though . i liked it.Another time on acid -or it was DOM or whatever +alcohool it felt like i could drink the world i was drinking and drinking and was weirdly drunk and trping not very much of a godlike expirience but i enjoied it . You can try drinking on psychedelics definetly if you have triped alot its an exp you can enjoy alot
 
Two of my friends smoked dmt for the first time while drunk the other night (against my advice). A huge waste of dmt, imo. The experience is dulled greatly and if you find it hard to remember or bring anything back from dmt while sober, good luck if you're drunk.
 
DMT and alcohol was a huge mistake on my end. I had very few visuals, and a very brief body high with a LOT of strong dissociative effects. Immediately after I completely blacked out and started vomiting. I was also smoking a little pot prior to the micro trip, but I feel like most of the damage was from a large quantity of alcohol with a DMT cherry on top. I'm sure had I just had a moderate to small amount of ethanol I may have had a more positive experience but I'm scarred after that trip haha

I think I'll stick to tripping DMT without mixing in the load of ethanol.
 
1-3 drinks is nice on the comedown of most psychs.
Getting sloshed and then tripping sucks, but nothing wrong with a drink before.
While tripping I don't want to drink, unless it's to fit in with where I am, and then I just nipple my drinks anyway.
 
I'd say a few drinks on the come up make for lesser anxiety, but as soon as I've come up I don't want to drink anymore. I just can't stomach it. Then on the come down, after the 8 hour or so mark I'm ready for some whiskey. It makes for a nice warm smoothness. Not always do I crave it but it does help with sleep and whatnot. It all depends on why you're tripping in the first place. I know people who trip and can drink and drink and drink and never get drunk while on psyches. I also know people who get really bad stomach issues if they drink too much before they peak. YMMV
 
Swim and several of his friends smoked dmt after drinking one night and all felt relatively the same affects the dmt neutralized the affects. and felt completely sober after smoking. swims general feeling is that the visual affects of most psychedelics are reduced when mixed with alcohol
 
While I guess it's all "each to your own" but I find alcohol in general to be less respectable/spiritual than psychedelics and it could take away from that aspect of a trip both in it's effects, and just the vibe I'd get from consuming alcohol while tripping, just sort of negative and "dirty". But I feel that way about any substances consumed while tripping other than smoking marijuana.

I went into my first LSD trip pretty beer drunk, and I'd say yeah it eased the come up, and I probably go as far to say that if the group of us hadn't been drunk, we probably wouldn't have made the unanimous decision to take acid that day hahaha. Oh, still probably one of the best days of my life
 
Once a guy who was drunk wanted to try DMT so I had him pay me $40 for a hit
He punched me in the face, so I don't know if it was the alcohol or other factors but it hurt, but it probably wasn't as bad as me hitting him back while on DMT
