I think the only thing I'd like to ad is: LISTEN TO THESE PEOPLE!!! Don't be stupid. You don't want to be scared away from DMT forever. You're going to miss out on something very amazing and profound.

Good luck, and don't rush it. That's going to end in a disaster.

pandora yes i do have a limited time i am in the united states army i go to basic training in 2 monthes

Old Lady Advice Continues:

Okay, given the state of the world, I won't be patronizing and say wait until you return. BUT, I will say do NOT take it with you. I actually know people who have done DMT, 5-meo-DMT and DPT in Iraq (& other theaters of war) and I consider them to be suicidal IDIOTS! Please do not join their stupid ranks.

2 months = 60 days.

Okay. I would humbly suggest something like spending a week or two reading books and trip reports online about DMT, as well as posting and asking questions and coming to chat when possible.

I would humbly suggest something like a month or so de-toxing, getting healthy, etc. if these are issues. In addition, I would suggest meditation or journaling or whatever you do. Maybe even therapy. Get ready to CRACK your head OPEN wide.

I hope you didn't choose the military due to a strong dominant personality or desire to control. No matter who you are you will never ever be stronger than DMT, you will never be able to conquer or control it. I don't need to know anything at all about you and I know that this is a FACT.

The key to a positive DMT experience IMHO is surrender. It is easy to write and difficult to do. When someone suggests something hateful or threatening in a public place I speak up (even though I am scared inside) because I know it is the right thing to do. If someone puts a gun to my head I surrender. DMT is like a gun to your head. And no one is Neo. You've got to let it ALL go, all your desires, like desire for dominance, control, life, a body, reality, understanding, . . . . . everything and more, . . . YOU MUST SURRENDER.

I am 42 years old. I have done DMT 100's of times. I am a DMT n00b. My hand shakes every single time. It is hard to surrender but I know what I must do.

Also, during this time, procure some proper hardware. The absolute BEST is a $100 pipe called a Glass Vaporgenie. But, most sleazy headshops will sell you a meth or crack pipe if you ask for a glass vaporizer. There are also designs for things like "The Machine" on this site.

When you are down to your last month or so schedule some time to do your experiments. Ensure that you have AT LEAST one FULL week, and perhaps two before you begin basic AFTER your LAST experience to begin the very, very important work of integration.

Wow. All of the above... Take heed! I don't really understand your initial attitude. You are going to try a substance that you never tried before, of which you probably heard it's the strongest psychedelic on earth, and are planning to take a MASSIVE overdose to try it out? If someone were to try acid for the first time, would you advise him or her to start with 2000 mcs? Please, don't think that you can 'handle this' because you tried some shrooms and acid and whatnot before. Basically all has been said above, but one can't stress this enough - respect the spice, start low and DON'T UNDERESTIMATE the power of it. Also, you were talking about IVing as a possible method of administration, that's an absolute no-go. Most people who extracted their own DMT wouldn't even try that, after numerous washes, ensuring it's purity, let alone doing that with DMT of an unknown source. That could be dangerous! Now that we scared you enough, go read up some information, load the pipe and FLYYYYY..... but be safe!

for me higher doses have always been much easier for me to handle became there is less me in the equation but yes i have decided to take 30mg for my first dose

Let us know your experience. I would be interested to hear it. I would still suggest 15mg though I know where you are coming from.

peace

My deepest and most difficult DMT experience left my ego perfectly intact. It would have been much easier if there was no “me” serving as a point of reference. Don’t assume that there’s some simple correlation between dose size and ego loss. There isn’t.

(30mg for a first dose is very reasonable.)

^ I kind of agree. Huge doses dont suddenly imply ego loss will occur for me, and at times lower even what seems like sub doses bring me into egoless states.

Thank you for accepting advice given, fan99... very cool. I appreciate and respect that a lot. Best of journeys, and please let us know how it goes.

Yeah, good luck! 50mg is a physically small amount, but it is indeed balls-to-the-wall. You can't not go balls-to-the-wall.

Rushing into DMT is a recipe for fucking yourself up. Even if you have some experience with it, and think you know what you're doing, it will still surprise you, and not necessarily in a good way.

Good luck!

I feel really good about how this thread has gone.

Me too. I've really appreciated lsdfan99's presence in chat the past couple days and all of the smart questions he is asking. Learning fast and learning that there is so much more to learn.

haha thx i kinda felt stupid at first
i am now officially in love with the nexus like a big psychedelic family hahahaha
