Bill first read of DMT when he was in his early 20's in the Anarchists Cookbook. he read fantastic tales of out of body complete hallucinations. he always thought "yeah sure, maybe one day...."
Well, that day arrived unexpectedly last monday. A friend returning from Dead tour stopped to spend the night. Lo and behold he ran across some DMT somewhere in a white powdered form.
Bill honestly would have preferred to set his own situation but he was with 2 close friends who'd done this before and his fiance and on his own couch. So he said sure... and put on some Widespread Panic.
Fiance goes first, One hit and starts laughing but seams ok. 20 seconds later It's his turn.. The experienced buddy puts somewhere under a tenth of a gram of said white powder in a bowl on some green. Nothing was actually measured but this guy would go heavy before he'd go light on Bill. He hands him the bowl and says "take 3 deep hits and hold the last one".
Ok here we go Bill thinks....
Now. let me take a moment to say Bill's ingested plenty of powders, pills and potions in his 34 years: pounds of mushrooms up to 7 grams at once, Some of the best LSD there is, at least 100 hits up to 8 at a time. He's done piles of MDMA and X, tried 2CB and Mesc. and enough Nitrous to put an elephant under. All that stuff over the years gave Bill what he thought was a reasonable notion of what to expect.....
One hit; well this doesn't taste that bad
Second hit: his mouth tastes like metal, What's that crackling sound? he thinks he better hit this again soon so he won't forget.
Third one: This is hard to relate but Bill's vision went from 1080HD to early 16 bit Atari. starting in the middle and radiating out. As he hand the bowl to the girl next to him he hopes he i won't drop it.
It feels like he's at the end of a train tunnel looking out with his back to the oncoming train. He hears a clicking noise and feels this force coming up from behind at 100 miles an hour in ever more rapid pops.
WHAM! All he see is a pattern made of red and black rectangles. they alternate R B R B and chase each other in a kind of cross with 2 side by side lines going up, down, right, and left. at the ends they curl back to the center away from each other.
Bill realizes that this is all he sees in front of him. The speed that it hit him scares him. NOTHING he has ever done has been remotely like this. he has absolutely no idea what is going on and tries to gather himself and be calm. he does not want to make an ass of himself but turns to the friend sitting beside me and ask "this is going to end right?" he hears/sees her say yes, she holds his hand and he feels a little better. But he's still scared. "this can not be good for you he thinks to himselfself. he turns his view back forward...
The pattern is gone now. So is the living room. Bill is looking into a huge empty area brightly lit where the air seems to glow. but it's like he's in a sky box looking through a glass window. he sees floating in the void a giant cube like light structure. (think of a sky scraper in its skeletal stage but with the iron beams replaced with beams of radiating light). he sits there awestruck with his mouth agape, he's just totally, to his core, blown away. he stumbles for words but none seem remotely adequate. " There is no way man is supposed be seeing/doing this." he thinks to himself. he knows his friends must be near but he can't actually see them when he looks forward. Twice he hears "open your eyes" from his fiance. Bill had no idea they were closed. When he does open them he sees the pattern for a few "seconds"? then back to the floating light cube.
Bill turns to his left to look back at his friends... they all look like cartoons. Honest to god 2-D drawings one color per part with black line outlines... this freaks him out. WTF is going on?
he looks forward again.....Same scene, he can see light refracting off the air in front of him. he notices the air has different hued areas...
Bill said "Imagine several long sausage shaped colored balloons stuffed into a clear plastic box. now imagine the box is your living room and you are sitting on the couch looking through the translucent walls of the balloons."
he "feels" a "presence" he cant actually see. Then he gets this impression in his mind of looking down on two "people" working around a small oblong control station. As they work on the table top touch screen they are talking. One says "we're loosing him." the other responds "you can't always pull them through."
The "vision" in front of Bill starts snapping back to just the den with the colored air areas, snapping back and forth then the light cube and "people" vanish. He realizes that he might be starting to come down as he can actually see what is in the room now. The room is still stuffed with the balloon air areas, and refracting light but it's the room again. Whew! he looks at a 3-D topographical map on the wall, he watches the Southern Appalachians grow from hills to mountains and extend 8-10 inches into the room before eroding back down to hills again and starting over.
Eventually that subsides and the colored air returns to glowing air.
The experience ends with visual trails and jumpy movement of normally moving objects. Shortly after this stage things return to more or less normal. Bill has no idea how much time has passed. everyone else seams ok and mostly unfazed.
Bills Fiancee said she saw everything in the room but with a square pixelated view. She said it made things look bright.
Bill can't imagine the others had the same experience he did and from their actions and accounts. His experience seamed so different from what theirs was that he tried not to talk about it too much.
This scared him, amazed him and left him totally dumbfounded for several hours. Bill vowed he'd NEVER do whatever the F__k that was again. he took 1/2 a zanex and went to sleep,
its 4 days later and this experience is all he can think about. However he now wants to try this again outside in the woods during the day with a quiet sitter. WTF is going on with that shit?
Also
Can someone point me to links on:
Other DMT experiences anything like mine.
Why "visions" have common elements?
Where do I find the native plant matter to try an extraction?
And for those old hats at this..
Have you ever gotten the "answers" or "figured it all out"? Or is it just a chasing game?
Do you build up a tolerance?
Have you noticed any negative health effects from doing this?
This was a profound experience, Bill feels forever changed.
Well. thanks for listening (if you actually made it this far).
Also feel free to give any advice, or thoughts you think might be useful beyond these topics.
Thanks,
