So tons of research went into DMT before my first trip. I had erroneously believed that I was well prepared to my first venture into the unknown. I had taken shrooms and acid after hundreds of hours of research and they were both rewarding experiences. I had read a lot about DMT too and was ready for the most reality altering experience of my life... so I thought. I had done research on how to properly smoke it from a crack pipe, how it my feel and inhalation technique. So here we go!
Lent my scale out to a friend.. no matter, I was too excited to try it for the first time. Eyeballed what I believed to be about 50mg into a standard crack pipe. I was nervous and anxious. Months of waiting, reading and mentally preparing coming down to this moment. I mediate for a few minutes and practice a few breathing techniques to slow my heart down, I'm ready as i'll ever be. I light it, it melts, I roll it around and see vapor start to form. I take a small hit, immediately let it out - oh crap, I was supposed to completely exhale all my air and take in the DMT - Lets try again!

Trip 1 - 9:10PM
Completely exhale all my air, take a slow and steady inhalation. I hold it for a few seconds, get a shift in visual perception. Ok gonna try to go for a 2nd hit... oh no, here it kicks in. I put the pipe down, lay down in my bed and close my eyes. I see an intricate warp hole made of beautiful LED lights of all sorts of colors surrounded by the blackness of space. I hear a weird sound that sounds like the changing of high pitched frequencies on one of those old radios. Am I blasting off into hyperspace?! Well I still know I'm in my bed, I could still easily move my physical body. Hmm I see some beautiful visuals and patterns, my consciousness never leaves this universe/reality.

Trip 2 - 9:15PM
Ok lets let it heat up a little bit more and create more smoke. Ok here goes a nice amount of smoke, what I had before was barely anything. Completely exhale, slowly inhale and fill my lungs to full capacity, and hold my breath. The carrier beam begins. It is getting louder and louder (I had no read about this, what the heck is happening?!). My eyes shut and I see a jester, made up of thousands of matte red fractal parts. Everything I see is covered in a matte red rubber like material. He pulls a number of objects out of my way and leads me to two other jesters that have these sword like objects between them drawing me in. The carrier beam is increasing in intensity. I all of the sudden feel this burning/numb sensation in my stomach. It starts spreading to my limbs slowly and I feel as if I am about to blast off. I then panic and release my breath and feel the air hit my pillow. This helps me hold on to my reality and my current dimension. I then see hyperspace, but am not part of it. I am simply allowed a preview of where I could be. I still have my own consciousness, I know I am in my bed and have just smoked DMT. I don't know what this beautiful, intricately complex red universe is. This universe has shining, reflective metal parts, it is no longer matte. It slowly fades into darkness and I am back. Wow... ok, I guess I wasn't really prepared for that.

Trip 3 - 9:30PM
I have prepared for way too long not to breakthrough. Perhaps the onset is terrifying and once I break through it'll be calm. Let's give it another go. Light it up, inhale and hold. I get the EXACT same trip. Jesters covered in matte usher me in once again, this time they feel more terrifying than the first time. They seem slightly malicious in intent with regards to bringing me into their realm. No matter, I will push through it. I feel the burning/numb sensation spreading but this time, I could feel the jesters' hands on me. Every place they touch burns, turns numb and feels like it is dissolving from this dimension into theirs. They reach my neck, cover my mouth and my lips and tongue go completely numb. They finally cover my nose and I am still holding in the DMT smoke but no longer feel the need to inhale or exhale. I can go further into my launch without any oxygen. This scares me and I once again exhale simply to feel my breath against my bed and hold on to the small bit of reality I still had. I get taken to the same intricate red hyperspace I had just visited, but once again I am merely observing it, not part of it. Then a giant jester head appears near the end of the trip made up of thousands of red, shiny metal parts, constantly shifting and moving. He has a giant arrogant grin on his face and he telepathically conveys the message "I knew you couldn't handle this ha ha ha" I slowly come back to, terrified and confused but with a new found respect for how absolutely powerful this molecule is. Had an amazing sleep that night, and woke up the next morning feeling more positive, optimistic and with a greater appreciation for life than I have since well, the first time I did mushrooms and the first time I did acid.

I then further read on this board that repeated dosage can lead to such terrifying experiences with these mischievous jesters. Before my trip I had no idea such jesters had even existed. I never read about them in other reports.

Time to think, ponder, reassess and prepare for my next journey =)

Recommendations, suggestions, comments are certainly welcome. Would appreciate the help and guidance as this was my first trip, and would love to have a more positive experience next time. I reported to all my friends afterwards that were waiting on the report and i told them I would absolutely NOT recommend DMT to anyone until I have more experience with it.
Thanks!!!

Was smiling the whole time as 'Google Speech' read out your report!

I've never come across malicious entities but here's some thoughts:

Mantras may help.
I sometimes hold or place crystals around the room.
I feel that whatever Hyperspace presents is always a present.
I've come across Jesters once but; each time for me has completely evolved; ; last time was a Buddha.
The Jesters may represent a aspect of yourself that your to contemplate/integrate.

Hyperspace is created by both you and the other; you have a lot of Power.

In my experience, the jesters are similar to the clowns and geisha entities. I have come across these entities, in super fast forward propulsion mode when I've burned the spice. I recommend trying vaporization instead of smoking. The experience is very different and much more pleasant in my opinion. Check out the wiki, Build a machine or other vaporizing device or if you have the money and are set on serious exploration, invest in a Glass Vapor Genie, a good torch lighter and use a copper mesh disc, volcano liquid pad or a ceramic flavor disc in it. Worth every penny. And definitely get your scale back.
Good luck in your explorations.

A line of solid advice on this forum i found helpful is, take time to integrate your experiences into everyday life.

Interesting that you saw this fellow. I feel like I saw it too, as a large head who basically told me, "hey, u have stuff to work on..." to which I would reply with gratefulness and astonishment, "thank you.. yes.. of course!"

I find intentionality and motive to be key players on our plane.

Yeah the jester thing , it's an amazing thing that people
Seem to get in the beginning . It boggles the mind .
Of all the things it could be it turns out to be
A jester .

Careful with this breakthrough concept better to take your time
And work up gradually . Sounds like you got that part .

I believe that the terrifying feeling from the last trip is from the oxide building up in the pipe. I heat the pipe up and blow the "old" dmt out, before I load again... just to be sure to get that magical feeling every time.

Once had a intense terrifying trip after trying to vaporize whats left in the pipe. It felt like 50-70mg pure "broken vision" oxide.

Thanks everyone for the advice.
I am excited and optimistic about my next adventure. I did reheat and smoke the residue inside the pipe when it created the 2 terrifying trips.

Next time I go in, which will be as early as tonight. I will definitely be less anxious, have a nice new clean pipe, and smoke it properly right off the first toke.

I have read here that many people practice the, inhale and hold X3 and 3rd inhalation is blast off time. I found it impossible to go for more than 1 inhalation because the current world is already beginning to deconstruct around me. I don't see how I could focus enough to fully exhale and take another breath in. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

Thank you all again!

Sorry, one quick question.

The small pipe I have is now dirty. It has a dark burnt residue at the bottom from the first 3 trips. I don't have any tools to clean it. Should I use a brand new pipe or can I reuse this one? I know it's a dumb question, but these little pipes are $5 a pop and it'll add up lol.

You can take isopropyl alcohol and run it through the pipe. The brown stuff should be rather resistant to absorption compared with regular ole DMT, but it does dissolve eventually, and it's worth the struggle. So if you can dissolve it, and then you can put it in a dish or something to let it evaporate. When it's done evaporating, you can scrape up those dark crystals, and they pack a real punch. It's seemingly more potent by weight than DMT by itself. I had my first white light encounter with the godhead while vaping a very small amount of the stuff on an aya peak.

Also, as far as jesters go, I can't confidently say I've ever seen one. It seems to be a common feature for many, but I can't say it strikes any bells for myself.

Lol, mucho bizarro

dont burn the spice, melt it.

Just curious, where did you read info that caused you to load 50mg of DMT into the pipe?

Awesome read, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Especially the part where the entity mocked you. Sometimes they can be silly little entities.

Once you get the scale back start lower and get to know her, gradually moving up in dosage over time until you find the sweet spot. Best way to get there IMO.

Just googled something generic "how much dmt to use for a breakthrough". The general consensus was that it was about 50mg. The person that gave me the DMT said to load it up with 100mg to get there.

I got my scale back, but it only goes to 0.01 grams. for some reason it doesn't seem quite sensitive enough. I put a little bit on and then it goes directly from 0.00 - 0.03, then put a little more on and it goes to 0.06g. I think I am getting pretty good at eye balling 50mg and i'm prety sure on the experience above I put around 75mg.

I've been building back up with lower dose experiences. Going to be ready for a full one soon enough. Easy does it with this powerful substance. At the lower dosages, I feel like DMT has a personality. It is quite weird, but whenever I hit a certain level I get a familiarity. Like seeing an old friend that you haven't seen in a long time, but are instantly reacquainted with as soon as you see em.

Read the DMT Vaping guide. I am definitely not vaping it properly

Very few people do on their first couple of tries. You'll get the hang of it eventually, and then you may only need 30mg or so for a breakthrough.

I prolly shouldn't laugh but ha ha, the jesters! Those guys have haunted one of my early experiences with dmt, there's a thread somewhere here about me running away from them. I think they have something to do making sure the molecule is respected and not used in a cavalier manner-maybe too many attempts in one night? Personally, I've never been able to blast off more than two or three times in a session, not usually "jestered", but the experience will disintegrate into what I call 'fractal foam' where there are lots ofpretty-colored dots in my vision, but they don't coalesce into anything.

As for smoking tek, I don't have a good freebasing technique, and I really don't like oil burners, I have had great success breaking through by enhancing mullien with dmt by solving the freebase dmt in 99%IPA (acetone can be used too, and prolly evaps.quicker) then dropping a little mullien into it. When the carrier liquid evaps off, it leaves the herb saturated. It's a great, easy way to dose, you may end up using a little more than say,a gvg, but if you don't have the cash for that kind of investment, enhancing herb is a great way to go. There's a good guide to that, and changa, here

When you use Changa and other enhanced herbs... do you just put it in a bong and smoke it the same as you would marijuana? Or do you still have to vaporize it?
Basically can the flame touch the herb?
I've got 800mg left of DMT so I have a bit to experiment with. Might as well order a GVG tho. Have a feeling DMT is something I will be exploring for a while.

I just load a bowl and use a regular lighter to get it lit. I don't touch the material with the flame, but let it catch from the heat, and then remove the flange altogether, letting it cherry. That is my personal method. Like I said, I'm sure that it isn't the most efficient way to dose, especially of your spice is limited in quantity, but it allows for easier modulation of dosage, and there is little to no learning curve. My freebase smoking method bites, and I've lost decent amounts of spice trying. If I had, or could afford agvg, tho, that might change.

As an aside, it's not really changa without an MAOI, as power definition. I like to use just mullien, it's texture readily absorbs the dmt, it's used by asthma patients to open the lungs, and had little to no harshness, as long as one doesn't smoke the woody stems. Check your local herbarium for more info.

Before the advent of the GVG, the Machine, the Inspirator and other efficient vaping tools being commonly used 50mg dose was standard advice, both here and elsewhere.


Another way to clean glass pipes if you don’t want to retrieve the residue is to use white vinegar and an excess of salt. Pour in the vinegar, add salt so it is oversaturated, leaving undissolved grains to act as an abrasive. Cover the holes, give it a through shaking, pour out, then rinse with plain water.

I just really like this. Good ponderings.
