This is my first trip report, and i'm still not baseline, so bear with me
Ok, after securing a small amount of liquid ketamine (~50mg) and finally securing a rig, my personal quest to mainline ketamine is now becomming reality. i'm over at my friends' house and they know what i'm preparing to do, and they wish for my safety. i've never IV'd before, so i had some problems getting it in, so my friend does it for me. after a few seconds, my body begins to tingle. "oh god, here it comes" i say, and i sit back.
Suddenly i have forgotten all the knowledge i have obtained in this mortal life, and i look down at my arm; not through my physical eyes, but thru other eyes. i not only see reality, i feel it. since it was my first IV experience ever, i spend the entire experience gazing at my arm, making sure its ok.
I can see in more than just 3 dimensions, its hard to describe...everything had much more depth and was way more refined. simply by looking at my arm, i could see all the valleys and mountains that are my flesh. i feel completely at peace, as if this is the only reality that exists. i regret that i was worried about my arm and did not get a chance to look around at other things before comming back into my body. my soul's eyes merge in with my physical eyes, and once again, i am confined to my body.
While comming down, i begin to remember my mortal knowledge and remember that its recommended you begin to describe the experience as soon as you can, so i begin thinking on what has just happened. while out, i couldnt think of anything, i was in awe of how incredible everything appeared, but comming down, i can put things into perspective. now i can look back and realize what just happened. i attempt to find words to describe the experience. all i can think of is "wow." i lay down on the floor and continue to think. the human mind cannot comprehend that sort of experience.
About an hour after returning to my body, i feel safe enough to drive myself home, so i can attempt to write out what i have experienced, to help me remember. one thing stands clear in my mind: i must return, on a slightly higher dose, and i need to make better use of the short amount of time this gift gives you.
This was definately a spiritual experience. my first ego-loss. i know the answers i seek can all be found right outside my body, so i await the chance to return.

the actual hole only lasted a few seconds (felt like about 30-60 secs), and the entire experience was a little over an hour to baseline.
i'd recommend a slightly higher dosage than .3 mg/lb (approximately my dosage), as this simply gave me a glimpse.
i wouldnt say i have much of a tolerance, tho i've insufflated many times, but never near enough to reach a hole.
 
Just be careful! Everyone has different natural tolerance, and as reported by
tathra the effects come on very quickly! If you IV too much, you may go into a hole so quick you won't be able to get the needle out properly! So if you are thinking of doing this, get an experienced friend, or just take extreme care.

The sad thing is, ketamine exerts its evil addictive powers by making you think you are on the verge of understanding everything. Chances are, you will never move beyond the verge, but the mere possibility is lucrative enough to keep most people coming back for more and more. (I am not saying you are an addict or will become one, but be careful because many addicts had noble, non-hedonistic intentions with their K use).
 
A beautiful well written report.
I enjoyed reading it :)
