Hypothetically;
I am female, age 29, 130 lbs, and experience very mild responses to Ayahuasca and San Pedro.
I know the focus of this site is DMT - which is not found in San Pedro, but wanted to mention it briefly in case it is relevant - I will drink a liter and a half of San Pedro while most people I know would drink only a cup. I experience a slight increase in feelings of optimism and connection, and sometimes slightly enhanced visuals - life glows a bit more.
With ayahuasca, I will drink 3 full servings and tune into visuals very briefly, but have never interacted with any entities. So far, I have not been able to stomach more than 3 servings - it tastes worse every time, and I throw up soon after the 3rd serving. The music sounds incredible, and I reflect on my life a lot - I generally have strong messages/lessons about tuning into my heart, loving myself, trusting myself and optimism about certain possibilities in the future. Near the start of the night, I also get cold and experience shivers in my legs. Asides from the mild visuals at the start (which I can tell would be really amazing if I could dive more deeply into them), the thoughts are similar to what I would experience on LSD or mushrooms - which I also have high tolerance for.
Also, in general, I do not have vivid dreams. I wonder if this is all connected? I have not found any information yet linking lack of dreams and mild psychedelic experiences. Leads?
I am curious about what it is in my body that makes me so tolerant (and if 'tolerant' is the right word). Also, it seems like I should direct my focus on my what's going on in my stomach, liver and brain - is this accurate?
From this forum so far, two suggestions that I have yet to try are supplementing with Black Cumin, and eating a bit of fruit after drinking.
I would appreciate advice on how to attain a more vivid, visual and deep experience on ayahuasca and other psychedelics.
If an full member would be open to posting this in a more relevant thread, that would also be appreciated (: Thank you!
Stay curious.
