In the past year, I tried my first "drug" drug: MDMA. The experiences have been beautifully transforming, allowing me to see deeper into myself, and even helping me fearlessly leave a bad long term relationship.

MDMA has done it's job for me, it's purely entertaining now (and sometimes not even that).

I'm not really looking to "get high" so much as I see dmt as a journey/experience for my mind (and my bro and new boyfriend)

I just fear maybe I'm jumping into the deep end before I learn to swim :0

I have no way of getting dmt so it won't happen next week or anything...but I'd like some feedback as I've watched nearly every dmt video on YouTube and heard many of Joe Rogans discussions about it.
 
DMT is off it's head, I'd reccomend a spot of shrooming or acid first. Nothing really will prepare you for the DMT experience but a taste of psychedelics first is probly wise.
 
Hey. I have always been pretty pragmatic and cautious (at least my advice has been :p) but I have to say one thing about DMT.

It doesn't matter if you're experienced. It doesn't matter if you know what to expect. With DMT, there is no right or wrong way, you simply have to do what you feel is right; if you feel ready, you probably aren't but there is no time like the present. Go into it with an open mind, and if you don't slam it closed in fright, you might really get somewhere.

Personally, if you can get some mushrooms first, I would suggest them, but like I said, DMT is special. Rules aren't as hard and fast, in my opinion.
 
I do like Joe Rogan(actually went and saw his standup), but I wouldn't base your decision off of his discussions about DMT or much else on Youtube. There are a lot more authorities on the subject out there such as Dr. Strassman(DMT: The Spirit Molecule).

I'm sure a few will disagree, but I wouldn't recommend DMT as your first psychedelic experience. I don't think you'd necessarily have a bad time, but more problems integrating your hyperspace trip. It's not really a drug to take to see pretty colors and such; it's pretty deep most of the time.

The positive is that it doesn't last as long as acid or mushrooms though. So, if you didn't enjoy it, you'd be back to baseline pretty fast as opposed to being stuck in a trip for 8-12 hrs.

It's just so intense; I know I wouldn't tell one of my friends to try it if they have never tripped before. I would have them start out with low doses of mushrooms or LSD for a while first.
 
DMT is by far the strongest hallucinogenic known to man.

start off with shrooms or acid ;)

and research, research, research!
I cannot stress that enough!

You could easily have DMT by next week. You just need the small and relatively inexpensive amount of materials and equipment needed to do an extraction. Search for mimosa hostilis and the "straight to base TEK" and you'll see what I mean. 15 or 20mg of the resulting extract would allow you to dip into the psychedelic waters for a few minutes without taking a plunge. DMT is a fine first psychedelic so long as the dose is increased slowly using a scale.
 
Thank you for the feedback friends, I look at dmt as a pretty big deal, and I'd like to benefit from the experience, rather than go in frightened. My boyfriend wants to try LSD more than dmt first (to be fair, we did try shrooms but they turned out to be extremely mild in strength- all we saw were vivid colors for about 30 minutes).

While I assume there is no ideal preparation for dmt, as it's so unique, I'll see how we can experience some milder psychadellic drugs. Like I said, I have no methods for acquiring psychadellic as los Angeles is more of a weed and pills town, lol
 
Thank you psood! I'd prefer home extraction since there's more control in that...wish I could make some MDMA! Lol
 
you can, get saffrole from sassafrass ;)


you need to understand that the majority of good drugs are available easily if you know where to look and what to do for the extractions
 
I recently bought up a supply of 5-meo and smoked it for the first time last night. Wow.

Ive had tons of experience with acid and mushrooms and nothing could have prepared me for DMT. Its so hard to explain, yet at the same time you remember every intricate detail about your trip. I absolutely loved it. The trip was so kind to me, tons of euphoria with an overall sense of harmony between me and the drug. You definitely feel closer to god, however that is possible.

I dunno if I would recommend it as a first time psychedelic, but no matter how much you prepare yourself for it you will never be ready. My advice: grab some, hold on to it until you are ready if you have to, but definitely get it. It will blow your mind on so many levels.

Have fun and enjoy, treat the DMT with respect and it will respect you.
 
I agree, start off with some mushrooms, and see how you are on them.

Some people really cannot handle psychedelics, and if you have not ever had a psychedelic experience I would not suggest you start with DMT.
 
As others have mentioned, I'd try a low dose of mushrooms to really get a feel for DMT. Low/medium dose DMT (not breaking through) and a medium/high dose of shrooms have somewhat of a common "feeling" sometimes I've found (one shroom trip I had a few days after smoking dmt made me go into extremely similar thought patterns I had while I was plateaued on dmt/coming down, well for like 10-15 seconds but I immediately recognized it)

If you have access to any other more obscure compounds I would honestly recommend 2C-B as your first psychedelic. A more gentle compound that reminds me of a glimpse of the MDMA magic with a light trip(well depends on how much you take lol), I wouldn't hesitate to eat this stuff at any time, always knowing I will have a good trip.
 
Try an eighth of shrooms first, then move on on to DMT. Since Psilocybn and DMT are both tryptamines, you can sometimes find similar connections between your trips. DMT is probably the craziest psyche there is, and sometimes it can scare the pants off of people who don't know much about it.

In any case, happy tripping :D
 
^^^the reason mushrooms feel similar to DMT is that psilocybin and psilocin are very closely related to DMT, in fact, the chemical name for psilocin (what psilocybin gets metabolized into in your body) is 4-HO-DMT
 
To echo psood0nym and RhythmSpring, start with low doses of DMT if you're set on that being your first "true" psychedelic. I find low doses very pleasant and if you decide you're comfortable with that headspace, you can slowly work your way up to something more.
 
I like the idea of looking deep within myself, letting go of ego, seeing things on a/in a different dimension/wavelength.....I guess thats what has had me researching DMT. I don't doubt other substances can do the same thing....I should probably check out some 2c-B or some (good) shrooms first to see if I flip out ;)

I've never heard of anyone making MDMA at home (though I know Alex Shulgin does provide a recipe =)) I'm assuming theres a major legal risk factor in some component, or all of the mdma on the street would be amazing home made batches concocted by resourcefull people who simply love the drug.
 
dmt is a perfect first psychedelic. just work your way up slowly with the dosages! i'd actually very much recommend it over longer lasting psychs such as acid or shrooms.

btw, dmt features much less ego dissolution than comparable doses of acid or mushrooms. and introspection is also more prominent with longer lasting psychs (especially tryptamines). dmt is a more vision (and euphoria :D) inducing drug than a contemplative one.

edit: i really don't get why most people think of dmt only as the "shot into hyperspace with machine-elves drug". if you take a few times your usual dose you can get to a similarly out-there state with most psychedelics. and as you can take acid for instance at usual doses you can have nice experiences with sub-breakthrough dosages of dmt.
