So I had never tried DMT before, yet I attempted an extraction anyway. I half-assed the entire tek, my yield was terrible. Still, I managed to gather a few crystals that were a brilliant white in color.

Upon waking up at 5:45, I smoked a small bowl, just to help wake up. I knew my next smoke would be DMT.

At 6am, 15 minutes after waking up, I took my EHLE mini bong, like the one in the link, and filled it with fresh water:

I put in a small amount of marijuana

I gathered about half of my unweighed DMT, it felt soapy, I don't know if that's how it's supposed to feel, but that wasn't going to stop me. The other half of my DMT is still sitting on a coffee filter on my kitchen counter. I put this white mass right on top of the small amount of marijuana. It filled most of the bowl. I covered the white DMT mass with another small amount of marijuana.

Excited, I went into my room, closed the door, turned off my tv, turned on a light, sat on my bed, and held my bong in hand.

Being careful to let the flame of the lighter touch the bowl as little as possible, I took a big hit. Not a good taste. It tasted of gasoline, but it wasn't too harsh. I took a bigger hit, it wasn't as easy to hold in, but I managed. I took a third hit. After that I coughed. I still had stuff in the bowl, but that was it; I was NOT going to hit that thing again.

From here it gets a bit fuzzy, stuff might be out of order, but I'll try my best to recall.

I immediately set my bong down. My whole body, particularly my chest, began to tremble. I felt an immense energy, the like of which I had never experienced before. DAMN! Indescribable. Honestly, I felt scared, like I was out of control.

I briefly saw a greenish, purplish "mass" of something, probably out of another dimension. The only way I can describe it was divine. It was easily the "trippiest" hallucination I have yet to see. This wasn't like the visuals on shrooms where everything was distorted. This was something that was not there.

But that lasted for about 1 second. After that my shakes began to get worse. I felt like a fucking crack head. I had never freebaaed anything before, and I did not like the feeling. My whole room was discolored, and I knew I wasn't in that dimension anymore. I began to go deeper into my trip.

I saw a race of aliens, which I call the Elephant People. They are like us, but they have no mouths, and they have elephant-like trunks (smaller than an elephant's turnk) where a human's nose would go. The Elephant People have pink skin and live on a scorching sandy planet, basically a large desert. I had never met the Elephant People before trying DMT, and I'm very glad I was able to meet them.

I tripped HARD for maybe 20 or 30 seconds. After that I began to come back from my journey with the Elephant People. My room was still discolored. The walls were moving consistently and they were changing colors, particularly in the corners. I still felt scared. Like still way too out of control. I was NOT having fun. I seriously felt like a crack head, my body shivering, and I couldn't even control it. I felt like a fool with the taste of naphtha in my mouth. The energy was uncomfortable, and I didn't know how to process my trip in the slightest. Forget tripping, I just wanted to make sure I was going to be okay.

I started calling people frantically. It was 6 am though, so noone picked up. I was barely able to recognize names in my phone. I just wanted someone to talk to. I left some hilarious messages on peoples phones

"Don't do DMT. It's fucking crazy."

"Dude I'm so scared right now. I feel like a fucking crack head. I'm shivering and I can't stop."

"Don't do it"

I walked into my bathroom. I looked evil. My skin was a sickening green. I was kind of reminded of the Nameks on Dragon Ball Z. I could see the evil inside of me. I learned that I'm not just a nice "holy" person, that there is legitimate evilness inside of me. Lucky, I'm not religious, so I don't give a damn if I'm good or evil. Unfortunately, DMT showed me that deep down I'm probably not a very nice person LOL!

I returned to my room and begin moving around it, prancing at times, in a random fashion. I was making sickening noises. I felt like a damn demon. There was one part where I let out a vocal "ooooooooooooooooo" I couldn't even control it. It felt completely natural.

I began calling more people, it was now easier to work my phone. I still did not good, and I was not having fun. I still felt like a fucking crack head. Noone picked up there phone. I knew I was coming down. I was pretty happy to come down because during the trip, I was legitimately scared.

Still, my body felt wrong, like what I smoked was something I shouldn't have. It did not feel natural like smoking weed or eating mushrooms. This felt like syntheticness. I felt like I hurt myself by smoking some unnatural no no shit. I returned to my bathroom where I wanted to throw up. I dry heaved several times, but did not get more than a few drops of vomit. This is not surprising, considering my stomach was empty since it was still early morning and I had not eaten yet.

I was coming down quickly, and starting to feel better, but I still did not feel good. I called more people, finally my mom answered her phone. I was panicky, telling her I did DMT and I felt like a crack head.

Now my mom has no clue what DMT is, and she had no clue what I was talking about because she wasn't even fully awake. But she calmed me down, told me everything was going to be okay, and basically made me feel alot better. I thanked her, and I told her I love her before hanging up.

By now my trip was all but over. I still had minor visuals but they faded fast. According to my phone, I called my mom 15 minutes into the trip.

So, it was pretty fucking intense. Now I find myself trying to figure out what happened. I think the gasoline taste made me paranoid that I hurt myself by smoking something bad, which made my whole trip perspective scary, and I wasn't prepared for it.

I knew my first DMT trip would be kind of rushed. I was so excited to try it, I wanted to do it ASAP. I did the entire extraction in like 12 hours. And I did it first thing in the morning, when I knew the crystals would have frozen.

If I ever do DMT again, it won't be for awhile. I will be from a careful extraction, which I prepared with sincerity and patience. Honestly, the trip was so powerful, overwhelming, scary, and uncomfortable that I don't think I want to do it again. This was not like shrooms, which to me are fun and give me confidence. DMT stripped me down and beat me up.

Still, that initial energy was indescribable and it was incredibly divine. I might try it again someday. For now, I just want to calm down and reflect.

I don't think DMT is for you.

With all due respect, if airplane pilots approached flying like you approached DMT, everyone that traveled by air would be dead. It sounds like spice gave you your answer, you smacked mother nature up like a cheap whore, and instant karma gotcha.

Yeah I got what I deserved I guess. I knew I was going about it in a reckless fashion. I don't regret it in any way or anything, it is what it is. I have my whole life ahead of me to try it again, if I ever even want to.

If there ever is a next time, the extraction will be done slowly, carefully, patiently, and most of all respectfully. And weighing the DMT might be a good idea next time.

For now though I think me and DMT need a little break. No way am I taking the rest of the powder I made. I'll probably give it to a friend. I still have 3/4 of a kilo of mimosa powder sitting in my closet, I'll probably save it for a very rainy day.

But yeah I'm just going to stick to growing mushrooms for awhile. The mushrooms are much kinder to me.

Patience will pay off in the end. I wouldn't suggest giving up just yet, meditate on it and only when it feels just right. Learn from this experience. Work on the things it showed you first and don't take those things for granted. Then next time update us on your experience.

This is a perfect example of what will happen to you when you disrespectful to spice and dose too much. If you filled most of the bowl with spice that could have been easily 10 more than normal dose.

Ewok may be right its not for you or not yet.

Get .001g scale next time you decide it may be right time for you to smoke again.

Be safe

Poads

Are you shure you evapped everything out of your "DMT" ?

" Not a good taste. It tasted of gasoline" you might even have poisened yourself

The last thing spice should do is make you feel like a crackhead. Maybe the next time (if there is a next time) you partake in DMT, you should assess your reasons for doing so.

It's not about having fun, getting a buzz and tripping balls. If you go in with that attitude, it's going to bite back.

I suggest you only try DMT again, if you at least have a small desire for personal growth.

Peace

Classic example of what not to do .
Don't blame the spice .

This 3 giant hit thing is a real pet peave of mine
Where is this idea coming from ?
Especially for people first starting out .

Your actually lucky this wasn't a worse experience . Actually sounds like you got off pretty easy considering the circumstances.

The nexus is a great resource for information .
You don't have to dig very deep to understand that this stuff is serious business and requires
Certain extraordinary levels of preparation
On all fronts.

Many people underestimate the potential .
For once we have something here that actually delivers something beyond human comprehension .

Learns from others .
Maintain vigelance at all times .

Yeah I probably didn't let the crystals dry completely. I removed the crystals from the naphtha solution by freezing then filtering with a coffee filter. I probably let the DMT dry for 5 minutes before using half of it in my adventure earlier today. I was in such a rush to do it. Obviously, I'm going to let it dry longer if I do it again.

I know what I took was DMT, but yeah it probably wasn't completely dry yet, hence the shivers.

For the record, I stopped tripping completely 15 min after smoking but I remained high for another hour. After that I felt completely normal, except for a very slight headache, which has since gone away.

Also, I think I was so panicky because I truly wasn't prepared for a trip of that magnitude. I mean, I have had some pretty intense shroom trips, but that DMT was a whole different league. It sounds pretty reasonable that I simply freaked myself out. If there is a next time (and I will keep saying "IF" because I'm really not sure) I think it will go better because I will know what to expect.

You let it dry for 5 minutes?... Trying to kill ourselves are we? This seems a tad wreck less, no actually I lied.. It is downright appalling how you have such a wreckless disregard for your own safety, health and well being. I strongly suggest you stay away from psycadelics in general for a while and try studying up a bit on proper method to your madness. I can't bring myself to say anything more at this time due to my complete shock and disbelief upon reading your post.

People are so much in a hurry to get spice down their lungs. They lose all reasoning and intent of why they are there in the first place. They spent money time and effort to get this stuff and all of the supplies then follow a tek, nearly screw it up because they are so excited. Then turn around and cut corners by letting gunk get in the pull. Plus not letting it precip long enough nor let it dry long enough. Rush to get to the pipe as quick as possible only to administer the dose size and method wrong. Then wonder why it tastes like plastic or gasoline! Then wonder why they had sore lungs and a bad trip. Then wonder if they will ever do it again....

*sign* this molecule is here to help us. Let us respect it so it can guide us the right way.

Respect, intention, meditation, inhalation, observation, analyzation, respect.

Its extremely saddening that most people will experience DMT their first time this way....

I can't say I was MUCH different, but I had a bit more respect for DMT (psychedelics in general) my first timethan it seems you did, Poad.

If I can make a suggestion....

Leave psychedelics alone for a while....

Evaluate your intention next time, and go into your experience with respect for your substance next time...

Honestly, what everyone here has said is true.. dont be so reckless, have some more respect etc etc..

However, I think at some point we have all done some reckless and disrespectful things in regards to psychedelic use (Or i know i have anyways) and got it handed to us. We regret it, try and integrate WTF just happened and hopefully learn from our experience. Or so should be our goal if you are serious about continuing to learn from and partake in the use of these sacraments..

It is through this learning that I have come to develop the utmost respect for these sorts of things (psychedelics - which used to be something i used irresponsibility as a reckless time on a friday nights (mind you it was not spice ) - no I am not condoning this behaviour, Im just saying)... and Im sure that you will too.

Anyways as others have said, take a break, meditate on it, and try and integrate your experience (this will take some time). When you believe your ready to come back (though is anyone ever really ready ), come back a more cautiously and you'll get so much more from it

Ps next time let it dry completely for your own sake .. And if you want to ensure there is no naphtha trap in your crystals try dissolving in IPA or acetone after you have freeze precip'ed and then letting this dry fully before smoking

The Dude

Sorry guys, but what can I say? I learn from example. I gotta fuck up the first time, so I can get it right the second time. I had to touch a stove when I was a kid to learn what "hot" was. The first time I smoked weed, I blew the weed out of the bowl. It took me 2 tries growing shrooms before I had my first mushroom. I kinda figured my first time trying DMT would be a little off. The next time I do it (awhile from now) I'll get it correct. Please don't think I'm stupid for this first silly attempt. Still, I'm glad I did it. It was quite the experience in its own right.

I wouldnt worry too much about it .. as I said we all do some dumb things..

So long as you learn from it (it seems like you are) and come back with the right intentions, all will be good again

All in all sounded like some experience, You must realize the strangness of this chemical, it can show you anything, so be prepared for anything.

Good intentions always, and if any fear starts just assure yourself that it is only going to last for a little bit.

Next time before journeying meditation always helps, clear any negativity out get your mind as clear and open as possible, and always know your dosage.

Be smart, safe, responsible, and go in there and learn. Best of luck to you, And if things seem to go awry, then maybe spice is not for you, with no offense at all some people are just not spicers.

I must admit, after reading your first post I was a bit dubious. However, after reading your subsequent posts, I feel you do have potential to walk this path.

I agree with you, that your next attempt should be a while from now. Take care, and take your time, don't rush and listen for the call.

Give plenty of time and thought as to why you are partaking in DMT, and what you're hoping to get out of it. Realising your mistakes, joining the Nexus and taking our input onboard are all steps in the right direction. I wish you all the very best in your journey.

Peace

Macre
