It seems that there are two different type of trip reports I read. The first seems to be a generalized sense of psychedelia - seeing patterns and CEVs, awareness of energetic fields, alterations of the inner thought patterns, etc... Maybe even a complete disassociation from normal reality into another space.

The second seem to be stories that have an almost narrative quality to them, though not necessarily linear. These seem to be less frequent and usually high dose experiences. People describe being(s) who do something - talk to them, operate a machine, change the fabric of reality, show them some meaningful place or thing, give them an object, etc...

I am curious for more info about the second type of experience. For those who have such an experience, can you tell:

Was the experience 'real'? Did it seem like you were 'really there'? Were you aware of a space, surrounding, etc? Movie like? Cartoon like? Real as everyday 3-D life (loaded question there, I know)? Or was it abstract? Did you see instead patterns and imagery but somehow 'knew' that it was illustrating some other thing? Did you know you were on a substance or was that knowledge completely gone at the time?

Do you think you have an 'abstract' or 'concrete' personality? Do you prefer things in life to all make sense or are you OK with uncertainty and indefiniteness?

Do you think the experience and being(s) had a 'reality' outside of your own mind or was it a reflection of your own self?

I am just really curious about these sort of trips, as they are totally different from the sort of experiences I have ever had. I have felt that a journey was 'guided' before, but never yet had anything like the sort of story-like experiences I see described on the web and in some of Strassman's subjects. The descriptions are so literal.

Off the top of my head I can recall one such narrative style trip and it was totally different in the way it felt to a standard 'generalised psychedelia' trip. It really did feel like being there, the patterns faded away - real as every day life indeed.

Upon ingestion, the trip began with intense psychedelia, certainly some of the strongest visuals I have had. At some point it reached a point of threshold intensity and I warped or phased through some kind of dimensional membrane to find myself on an alien craft surrounded by happy humanoids. The phase shift felt similar to entering a lucid dream directly from the awakened state and passing through the veil of sleep.

My visual field had previously been enveloped by thick, colourful OEVs but suddenly these disappeared without a trace and the room was crystal clear, ethereally green. When the narrative part of the trip was over it phase shifted again and returned to general psychedelia. Normally I would have been on spice but this particular time involved 2C-B.

The most intriguing thing is that I am not normally the kind of person to ever have narratives, or entity contact or 'spirit guides' or any of the more magical elements of the hallucinogen world. Typically my trips involve extremely abstract abstractions of abstractness () coupled with intense geometric visuals & a finer grained sense of emotion, I am a very mathematically oriented person so this is expected. Perhaps if I were a writer or a painter then my visions would be filled with faeries, elves and other wacky critters.

Maybe I'd even get freaked out by experiencing my consciousness in multiple forms such as entities. So those of you who don't have these kinds of trips don't fret, the potential is certainly within you. You just need to find the right substance to unlock it.


Also here is by far the most immersive narrative I've read thus - #8 D.M. Turner - 30 mg. N.N. DMT
You expect alien humanoid contact... but how about beaming into the mind of a fellow human on another planet and having a nice little chat?!?
