Hello all,

I've been smoking DMT for several weeks now. I've enjoyed it, but not only has it not been breakthrough, it's not been all that strong.

I'm not sure if I'm not smoking it right, my DMT is not pure enough (it came from large crystals that look like quartz, from a highly regarded source), or I just have some resistance.

I became quite adept at the meth-pipe method, and took large hit after hit after hit. I could never get to the point of not being able to smoke more, and always eventually stopped to enjoy the visuals and dancing shapes. It's never been a strong ego loss or mind blowing unity experience - even after 10+ huge tokes and experimenting with different hold times. The effect is strong, but not overpowering or transcendent, and it wears off after 5 minutes.

Others who I've smoked up with the same method and substance experience more intense adventures with just one or two hits.

Generally I'm using large doses - 150-250mg, and for sure have smoked 100mg+ within 1-2 minute.

I now have a VPG, and am not having more luck with that. Each time I get a huge toke, I hope for the best, but have yet to reach anywhere I'd consider transcendent.

I'll keep at it, and will soon try a different batch of spice....

gat a bong and infuse your magic into a herb then puff tuff.

crack pipes are terrible.

there's endless smoalking info on the forum, just do a search to find it

Of course I am reading and searching in the forums - that's how I discovered VPG and how to use it.

The meth pipe allows me to take some pretty large hits, but maybe I need more dense smoke and am unable to do that because of difficulties balancing the heat/vaporization process with that pipe.

Are you taking any kind of medications? And you say that others have done this, with great effect? Your holding it in for as, long as you can? Do you notice any harshness?

I take St John's Wort (mild SSRI, mood elevator) and Piracetam/Choline (nootropics reported to enhance DMT).

Yes, the smoke is somewhat harsh - not pleasant . Definitely not burnt though - I'm pretty careful about that.

I bought a meth-pipe like add-on for a bong and will try that next. I think I need to get more smoke into a single toke and hold it.

If it's harsh you are burning it. Properly vaporized dmt should be smooth. Be more gentle with the flame. Also you want to hold it for as long as possible, try to get it in one hit and hold it till you can't.

SSRIs also cause you to need more. Do not combine SSRIs with MAOIs, I know you're smoking base, but if you think about changa or aya you're going to have problems. If you take st johns wort leisurely(not by doctors suggestion) then maybe you could try staying off that for a couple weeks and giving this another try. Also try smoking out of a bong without putting the flame directly on the spice. Fire destroys dmt.
