when smoking dmt does anyone else feel like they are barely breathing when blasting off? if so, why do you think that is?

I noticed with the appeared distortion of time breathing appears further apart than usual still feels like deep breaths but far apart.

Breathing quickly gets strange as you make your way to the other side.

I have breathed what felt like living machines into balloon like spaces inside of me which popped and I repeated knowing that this would eventually not be like this.

I have felt severe pains in my left lung (when I was a tobacco smoker) that caused me to cease to breathe all together in hyperspace because it was impossible to breathe in. So I suffocated and died, thinking I would never return, of course! This happened quite a few times until I eventually quit and it doesn't anymore. Hyperpsychosematic hallucinations.

When I smoke changa I can breathe deeper and clearer than I could before, or so it seems. It's a profound feeling.

As if breathing wasn't already weird enough as it is biologically feeling ourselves converting the atmosphere.

The first time I ever smoked it felt like I wasn't breathing at all. I kept asking my sitter if I was still breathing because I honestly thought I wasn't.

I guess one could call it "time slowing down"... I've had it some times and it's actually OK as long as one doesn't get freaked out by it. For me, white DMT feels good for my lungs, even sometimes like I could breathe deeper after the effects wear off.

I was sitting a friend of mine who smoked DMT this weekend (it wasnt extracted DMT, but gotten from... "sources" ) so i didnt accepted to smoke rather than to sit my fellows. he smoked on a light bulb and he laid back on his bed with his eyes closed. all of a sudden he bends up and says out loud: "whenever you smoke this thing YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER TO BREATH" and then laid back again and closed his eyes. at that moment I didnt reacted but after he came back I was laughing about this with him it was super fun

I wonder, does the breathing really slow down or become shallow, or is it just an illusion that comes to the person who smokes DMT? Thinking if one would really stop breathing for some time, that would be a problem? However I've never heard of this with DMT, except for one person who smoked crazy dose of 170mg(read on this forum)

lolol. honestly i have a really tough time remembering to breathe. the come up to the breakthrough is so intense i just hold my breath. scary at times

yes same thing with me i usually hold it in and just go along for the ride! i honestly dont even realize when i exhale after hitting it i just close my eyes and usuallly the second i close my eyes BOOM im in hyperspace then in some crazy land or something!! lol i just hate that i can barely remember the trip (the most intense trips and high doses i can barely remember) i guess i will start another thread about "remembering your trip" low dose trips i can remember very easily but the ones where im just in aw i have hard time remembering
