Hello chief10,
Welcome to the Nexus and thank you for taking time to writ up an Introduction Essay.
I would strongly encourage you to read Dr. Strassman's book, "DMT: The Spirit Molecule." Not only is it partially the source book for the movie, it is about 1000x better. I am sure you, as a prospective med student would love it. It is fascinating, not just in the trip reports but also in what he and his team had to go through to be able to work with Schedule I material in a research setting.
300mg DMT is a terrible overdose. Most folks start in the 10-50 mgs range. I always recommend starting low and working your way up. See, you can vape 10 mgs and if you like that you can vape 10 or 20 more an the doses will stack - you will go deeper each time. Just vape the "more" before you fully baseline from the original hit(s). See, taking too little is easy to correct. But, taking to much and getting off correctly, can be an infinite ride into the deepest crevices and trenches of the mind. In my opinion, not much good can result, other than trauma and blacking out.
I'd recommend taking a good look at this site. In particular the sub-fora on smoking techniques. I'd also recommend you make changa.
I want to warn you that DMT is not a recreational drug. Those who take it for purely escapist or hedonistic or boredom reasons, eventually get their behinds kicked hard and deeply into next week/month/year. It is just a matter of time and a DMT bad trip is like no other. It is important to dose DMT with a strong intention of some sort. For me that has been learning and memory in the past, as well as insight and growth.
But, I must stress, all of this is just one woman's personal opinions.
I'm glad you signed up and hope you will become an active member.
Again, welcome to the Nexus.
