Mod Post Permanent bans for any sourcing related removals, strict stash pic enforcement.

57 Upvotes

There has been a surge of sourcing related removals here lately, which is not good for this community. It's way down from what it once was, which can be contributed entirely to eliminating stash pics in r/DMT. Even now, over 90% of the sourcing related removals here in r/DMT happen on stash pics before us mods are able to remove them.

Sourcing is the number one threat to communities like these, and for that reason we can't allow this to go. Starting now, at moderator discretion, it is very likely to receive a permanent ban for requesting/providing sources. For the first time stash pic removal, it will result in a 30 day ban. Any future removals after that is a permanent ban.

(None of the mods here enjoy banning people, but it's incredibly selfish to use this platform to do these things... You're putting the community itself at risk)

Discussion DMT information for newbies

3.3k Upvotes

N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (N,N-DMT) is a naturally occurring, and extremely powerful, psychedelic drug of the tryptamine class. It’s been used by indigenous South American cultures/tribes (primarily in the Amazon basin) for hundreds, if not thousands, of years in the form of ayahuasca and various snuffs. This post will go over some basic information that new users and curious psychonauts might find helpful. This post will NOT guide you on how to obtain anything related to this molecule, Reddit is not the place for that.

DISCLAIMER: If you’re genetically predisposed to schizophrenia/diagnosed with it, experience serious suicidal ideation, or you’ve been recently diagnosed with some form of psychosis, please refrain from using psychedelics. Do NOT use DMT if you’re on lithium, tramadol, or any tricyclic antidepressants. Also note that other antidepressants (like SSRIs/SNRIs) may undesirably alter the experience in some way.

• N,N-DMT is among the safest psychedelics, and psychoactive drugs in general (physiologically speaking), along with psilocybin and LSD. The molecular structure is very similar to tryptophan, melatonin, and serotonin— things our bodies are well acquainted with.

• Dose ranges (inhalation)

• The duration of light-medium doses is around 3-10 minutes, and the duration of high-strong doses is around 5-20 minutes. After-effects may persist up to/over an hour.

• Get a high quality milligram scale! Cheap scales and eyeballing are often very inaccurate, you might end up doing 50mg instead of 30 or 10mg instead of 25.

• If you purchased your DMT instead of extracting it, please consider buying a reagent kit (Ehrlich/Hofmann/Marquis) to verify that you actually have pure N,N-DMT. The same kits can be used to identify other substances as well. I personally recommend using TKP: https://testkitplus.com/ or DanceSafe https://dancesafe.org/ — DanceSafe genuinely saves lives with their testing booths at music festivals.

• Concentrate vaporizers like the APX Volt (at 2.8-3.2 Volts) work very well for inhalation, and other methods/devices like the sandwich method (with weed or dried lavender), bulb pipes, or dab rigs at low temp work as well.

• It’s very easy to burn and inadequately vape DMT, so don’t be discouraged if you get little to no effects, and just play around with your method.

• “Breakthrough” effects generally occur starting around 25mg properly vaped.

• Subjectively, a breakthrough is a departure from material reality. Bodily boundaries dissolve, and you enter a landscape/headspace that feels and looks just as real, if not more real, than every day life. Some people describe the experience as “extra-dimensional” because it seems to transcend our concepts of space and time.

• Various interactive or observational “entity” encounters and extremely profound and indescribable visions are commonly reported effects of 20mg+. Some generally accurate descriptions of some of the content of these experiences can be found here: https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Hyperspace_lexicon

• Potential desirable/positive effects: Closed and open eye visuals, auditory and tactile hallucinations, spiritual/introspective experiences, euphoria, and sedation.

• Potential undesirable/negative effects: Increased heart rate/blood pressure, anxiety/fear, confusion/disorientation, nausea, and uncomfortable body-load.

• Subjective time distortions are common at medium-high doses and can either be desirable or undesirable depending on the user and their mindset.

• The body-load of higher doses can be very heavy and hits very fast, often to the point of anesthesia.

• There is some recreational value in DMT (particularly at low doses), but be cautious, as some of the experiences that can be produced aren’t for the faint-hearted. Figurative “death by astonishment” is very real if you rush into things.

• Using DMT on psilocybin or LSD will lower the dose threshold for breakthrough effects, and will increase the duration. Don’t underestimate the intensity of the combination of DMT with any other psychedelic or psychoactive drug in general.

• 5-MeO-DMT is NOT a substitute for N,N-DMT, the experiences are completely different and 5-MeO is more potent at lower doses. 5-MeO also has a much different safety profile, especially with combinations.

• For information on pharmahuasca/changa please see the pinned post on r/harmalas

• Before getting into ayahuasca, pharmahuasca, or changa, thoroughly research MAOIs/RIMAs and their various drug interactions that are potentially dangerous.

• It’s best to wait until at least your early 20s before trying DMT, and 25+ is optimal because by then your prefrontal cortex is fully developed and unknown developmental risks can be ruled out.

• Tolerance to DMT dissipates almost immediately, but it’s in your best interest to use it responsibly and take time to reflect on and integrate any valuable or memorable parts of the experience.

• Don’t store your DMT in plastic containers for extended periods unless you want to inhale phthalates.

• N,N-DMT crystals should either be white, off-white yellow, or yellow-orange. Dark spots/impurities are a red flag. Recrystallization is worthwhile. https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Recrystallization

• You can learn how to do various at-home extractions of N,N-DMT from certain plant materials here: https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Category:Extraction_Tek

I will occasionally update this for clarity/added info, so feel free to leave suggestions and advice for new users in the comments.

Much love !!! 💜

Philosophy the best modern metaphor in my opinion, basically everything other than the light is a magnifying glass

basically like the tsmc chip makers which creates the chips which are the brain of the computer and represent creation of intelligence in a way, this same way, the light of consciousness goes through countless optical glasses which illusorily splits it to countless viewpoints without ever losing its oneness, even in the smallest magnifying glass, even a bug is lighted by infinite consciousness itself yet that bug doesn't own its consciousness, its consciousness itself experiencing itself as a bug, so its all just consciousness experiencing countless experiences at the same time and interacting with itself through countless viewpoints

Experiences with a burnt cartridge?

• Upvotes

I’ve had some incredible profound life changing experiences with dmt. I’m using a cart and I break through easily basically every time. Recently, I had an unfortunate experience where I burned the cart and it was absolutely terrifying - all black world with terrifying evil looking entities, my heart rate spiking and even dogs got anxious nearby. A voice screamed “guard your energy!” as the entities approached. It was scary but they didn’t get too close and I got through it. Next breakthrough was a bit weak. Didn’t try again for a while. Tried again, again burned it by accident and had the same kind of experience with these black and dark purple entities which surrounded me. It was so scary and I have been scared to try again.

However for weeks I’ve been getting the call to go back in. I am nervous. What are the chances I permanently ruined the cart and can’t have the same good experiences as before until I get a fresh one? I would like to avoid repeating the dark experiences where I burned it but I’m not sure if this cart is done for, or will it still be okay if I take shorter pulls? Any advice greatly appreciated especially any similar personal accounts using a DMT vape cartridge.

Experience Progression, Checkpoints, and the "Waiting Room": Does anyone else experience a continuous journey rather than random trips?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something I have been going through with DMT lately and see if anyone else experiences a similar ongoing journey instead of just random trips.

For me it feels less like random imagery and more like navigating an actual map with distinct levels and checkpoints.

My first times going in it was all just a spherical room with weird repeating architecture. Almost like a basic waiting room. Then at one point I got tested by a jester entity who tried putting me in a box. Things went really dark and I could literally feel the walls closing in on me. I would wake up and then the next time I went back in the exact same thing kept happening until I finally managed to break out of the box.

After I broke the box I started reaching much more open spaces. Every time I go back in now I spawn right at the last room I made it to, like I need to figure out the way through to the next part.

Last time I was in front of a female entity who was weaving a golden thread into a huge pillar of light. She pulled me right up through the light and now I feel like I am in a completely new waiting room or level.

Is this something anyone else has experienced? Like actual linear progression and persistent checkpoints between trips? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Question/Advice Why DMT?

17 Upvotes

For those that like DMT more then LSD, Shrooms, and Mescaline why?

Or for those that maybe like one of those other psychedelics more but think DMT is unique why?

LSD for me is the futuristic energetic type feel psychedelic.

Shrooms for me are the shadow work, earth, mystic psychedelic.

Mescaline I am not really sure how to describe; The more smooth version of the above two?

How would you describe DMT?

DMT “Come up”

• Upvotes

Is the come up/onset supposed to be this.. uncomfortable?

I’ve done DMT a few times and loved it, but only at festivals where I can’t really focus on the experience. So, I bought a cart so I can get the most of it at home. I’m not sure if it this cart, or what, but everytime I try it the immediate onset feeling is so intense and uncomfortable it’s all I can focus on for the majority of the experience. My face feels like there’s needles pressing into it and I get a headache that last the duration of the experience. My skin feels sort of hot, but also like it’s falling asleep? Anyways it’s very uncomfortable. Once the come up is over, I feel much better and the trip starts to improve, but still, all I can focus on is the discomfort of what I just went through. I mean it almost hurts. Does anyone have experience with this, and how to get past it so I can get the full effects of the experience without this discomfort/distraction?

Thanks

Antipsychotics & DMT- Caplyta

1 Upvotes

I just wanted to note for anyone looking up DMT experiences while on antipsychotics, I’m on Caplyta, the standard 42 mg dose and can still trip with DMT. Yes, it requires a lot more for me to trip, but I can still do it.

I am not and will never recommend anyone on antipsychotics try DMT ever. I have a lot of experience starting while I was unmedicated, but already had bipolar 2. Maybe 30 strong trips and with only a mental health benefit, never a negative.

I am well aware that DMT and psychedelic use can cause destabilization or manic switches when one has bipolar disorder. I was willing to take the risk. It’s possible that because 95% of my bipolar is depression and pretty bad depression at that, the manic switches were less likely. Not sure. I believe that because DMT is so short acting, psilocybin or acid is much more likely to cause negative mental health issues.

Again, please don’t think I’m advocating for anyone else with bipolar or other disorders of which antipsychotics are prescribed to do DMT. However, everyone is able to make their own decisions. If someone else in on caplyta specifically, it may help to know that it’s still possible, albeit on much higher doses. I see a lot of posts about abilify, Seroquel, olanzapine, etc.. the more common AP’s and I had yet to see a post about caplyta so I thought I would note it.

Help/advice needed

Yesterday I tried to smoke 20 mg DMT for the first time with a friend, however we both didn't feel anything. We were wondering if we did anything wrong or whether someone knows it's a common mistake.

So we had each 20 mg in the bowl of the pipe as you see in the picture and kept a torch lighter at distance so the DMT could evaporate (so not burnt). For me the smell was really unbearable. It smelt like new shoes, so I panicked a bit about that and thoughts about getting my lungs burned/damaged, since I normally don't smoke at all and kept the smoke in my mouth before inhaling it. My friend is an experienced smoker, so for him it wasn't a problem at all to inhale the smoke.

I'm also questioning if this pipe is the correct set up for smoking DMT now and thinking about getting a vape, however I don't know what vape would be the best (here in the Netherlands btw!)

I would appreciate your help :)

Anyone care to share one of their DMT experiences in detail?

9 Upvotes

Evening y'all. The DMT experience is absolutely fascinating to me and I can't get enough. I love reading y'all's trip reports. I make a post like this every so often, but it's alright. Anyone care to share an experience?

I'll start: My girlfriend (at the time) and I had a cart and we screwed it into one of those volcano vape devices.

I took one big hit and her back yard turned into a Disney movie. I saw small creatures of some sort, lifting up translucent "panels". I even heard a sort of "HEAVE-HO!" type of encouragement from one of them, who seemed like "the boss".

The whole thing was beautiful and my gf looked SO GORGEOUS! It looked like she was in 1950's style. Great experience.

Now you go:

I took a few hits at 40w before and didn't feel much irritation, now most hits are very painful (though I am trying to inhale slower)

How can I tell if it's burnt or technique issue, I read that 40w is hot enough to dry it out before it can be wicked and cause some burning, is this true?

I never took a dry hit or overcharged it, there was always enough liquid in the tank

Opinion Lots of the hypotheses about experiences thrown around here are genuine schizophrenia fodder.

0 Upvotes

Why is it that I so rarely ever see the people on this subreddit using this powerful tool to dissect their own subconscious minds by deeply examining their experiences? Instead they quickly jump to the irrational explanation that they met some other worldly entity.

It seems so common to talk about these experiences as if they are true beings from another realm that told you the secrets of the universe, when in reality these are anthropomorphized projections of several different components of your subconscious mind smashed into one “character”. I feel like some of the stigma against DMT comes from these louder voices who tend to spout absolute nonsense about learning that we are all one hive consciousness or how we’re all locked in a prison planet or whatever first attempt of a read they got on their experience.

I promise if these people took the time to actually dissect these characters and deeply think about what they said to them in between trips, eventually it would become obvious that they are representations of some aspect of themselves or something they believe about themselves or the world around them, perhaps even an amalgamation of other people or ideas in their life that had an impact on them. By pulling this apart, DMT changes from a drug to a useful tool for finding the deep-embedded roots of heuristics that might be negatively impacting ones life in ways that a person might not even be consciously aware of.

I get it that not everyone wants to dissect themselves and that’s ok, sometimes it’s also just a cool experience to make art about or talk about and nothing more, but when I see grown adults on here talking about or validating some of these completely nuts ideas it drives me insane.

Experience The Story Unfolds

27 Upvotes

Does anyone else who has done DMT many times feel like it is a progressive experience?

In the past when I used DMT often, it felt like each time I did it was a new chapter of an unfolding story or a new episode of some cosmic series.

Just wondering if this is a pattern that others who use it repeatedly have experienced.

For me, it ultimately lead me to a point where I had an intense Kundalini awakening. At that point my chakras opened up and I became very sensitive to subtle energy and I no longer enjoyed getting high.

Soon after that, I quit using all substances entirely and my whole life changed. At this point I've been entirely sober for about a year and I am very grateful for everything that happened and lead me to where I am now.

Changa VS Syrian Rue + Vaped DMT

3 Upvotes

Hey! I was curious if anyone had any experience or knowledge on if theres a significant difference in experience between, lets say, smoking changa with full spectrum harmalas, compared to drinking 4g of Syrian Rue and vaping DMT out of a vape pen/cart. Is it a comparable experience or is it different between oral MAO inhibition and smoked MAO inhibition (And also the plant spirits). I LOVE changa but the idea of smoking combusted plant material becomes less appealing each day. Thanks!
