I sought out DMT as several friends I know personally had told me about its powerful psychedelic effects and transformative potential. I used to think of myself as a somewhat experienced user of psychedelic tryptamines but after my first breakthrough experience I feel like I'm really back to square one. A close friend of mine who also wanted to try spice helped me extract it from some ACRB. My friend had a near breakthrough experience and was left with feelings of strong respect for the molecule. His visualizations were more mild but his experience still seemed to leave a strong impression on him. He took a smaller dose (he had taken a large dose of moxy several years prior that had taught him the lesson I had not learned yet). I took a significantly higher dose.

I ended having a breakthrough where I met a deity that punished me for my disrespect. It showed me spacetime splitting into infinity and trapped me with its consciousness and pummeled me with a torrent of profound thoughts too fast to remember or understand. An eternity of ever expanding eternities passed before I finally truly understood the level of respect I was supposed to have. In the last few moments of the trip I felt a euphoric sensation through my body and an intense happiness over my newfound humbleness but also mixed with some fear that I might be stuck there forever. My fear was nearly instantly alleviated by the come down which came gently. The veil of reality began cover my consciousness and I settled back into my seat at the house. 20 minutes had passed.

I was humbled and a little shaken but I did not feel like I was left with an entirely negative experience. More like I was being taught an important lesson. In my time trying it since, having guiding phrases like "this too shall pass" helped but there were times where I could not remember the exact words. In my limited experience, it's easier to remember the phrase by the feeling of security it gives you. When you recall the feeling, the words come naturally. I think this will make it more feasible to recall phrases when experiencing a breakthrough.

I feel like I have more to learn before diving back in with a breakthrough dose but I have played around with smaller doses to help me get used to the stressful comeup. I'm mostly here to learn more and better prepare myself for a second trip into hyperspace, this time with more respect and understanding. After that I hope to have many more travels with DMT in order to expand my mind, creativity, and emotions.

Hi M○○N and welcome. We're here to help with anything you might need in regard to these unfathomable travels. We wish you safe trips and that all your dreams may come true.

Q:What psychedelics have you used prior to this?

Welcome to the Nexus!

Sounds like you had a very important experience, one you can continuously learn from. We all need a little dose of humbling in our lives sometimes. I've also had that happen, either from taking too much, or taking without proper intentions, or not having cared for some set and setting aspect, or something I wasn't doing in my daily life to "pay my dues". Hyperspacial slap is a thing

Interesting about your technique to find your center or calm yourself down. That phrase "this too shall pass" is def something ive used and I agree its more about the feeling it elicits rather than the words themselves. Im sure you'll develop different strategies to deal with the difficult situations and evolve a lot personally through this path.

Best of luck!

Be well

Totally. This too shall pass is a great mantra.
