Who else has experienced this? Besides laughter, has anyone experienced other vocalizations on the way out of a DMT trip?
I am a vocalizer. Oh yes.
Laugh. Sing. Howl. Chant. A weird high-pitched hum. Words. Non-words. Giggle. Pretty much anything I'm directed to do in there. It's like 'they' have a voodoo doll of me, stick the pleasure pins in, grab me by an ankle and toss me to and fro, hang me upside down, tickle me, make me sing...
One night I literally crawled from my quiet room out to my wife in the living room, and after she stopped laughing at me being on all fours, she asked me to speak.
When I did, she said "I just wondered if you had any voice left, after all that noise you were making."
And it's the reason that, if I smoalk outside, I have to be incredibly careful with my dosage. As in, only sub-breakthrough. When not certain I am dosing too much and might breakthrough, (which is like 99% of the time), I just turn around and go back inside. I'm in a city with neighbors, I don't think it would go over well.
And the real story behind that is, one night I had been outside and doing fine, and my wife came out to check on me. We spoke and laughed, I said "just one more hit" and she turned and went inside. So I get a pretty big hit, but a microgram from loss of, well, everything. And I can sense that I'm "vocalizing", vaguely aware I can't stay outside like this. Head for the door, give it a tug. Oh crap she inadvertently locked me out. Which really got me laughing. And banging on the door. And she finally gets to me, mortified and laughing and apologizing, I fall into the house, down to hands and knees, laughing and ranting. And I kept repeating while we're laughing, telling her we gotta be careful, I know for a fact the police are going to show up and she's arguing no they're not it wasn't that bad. We argue and laugh when it finally hit me and I stopped laughing, long enough to look at her calmly and say "... maybe they should!..." which got me laughing even more.
So, other than that, I'm pretty quiet. On low doses, I mean.
