Delta-9-THC
Rising Star
I posted this on another board but I felt like sharing it here.
"This is my first trip report so bear with me. I am fairly experienced with psychedelics at moderate dosages. I have experimented with mushrooms, LSD, MDMA, and Ketamine. I also smoke cannabis daily. I am especially experienced with LSD as it is my preferred psychedelic(least amount of side effects), although I have not yet explored the high dose range(my highest dosage being ~300-400mcg). I have probably taken LSD 30+ times over the years, mostly at concerts but sometimes alone or with friends. This was my first fully psychedelic experience with DMT. Before this experience I had smoked small amounts about 3 times, all pretty mild experiences comparatively.
I smoked an unknown amount of DMT because my scale is less accurate then I thought and seems unable to measure accurate dosages. I sandwiched it between 2 layers of herb on top of a screen in my bong(with water). I tried a few others ways and this has so far proved to be the most efficient. I am looking into making The Machine (smoking device specifically for DMT) but this will do for now. I estimate that I smoked ~30-40mg. Ok heres the report
I meditated lightly for a a minute or two focusing on my breath, calming my heart rate and easing into a more relaxed state. I then grabbed the bong and slowly roasted the top layer of weed until it lit. By the second hit I knew it was working because it tasted heavily of plasticky tryptamine.
I soon felt an intense rushing feeling accompanied by a high pitched digital sounding tone. The smoke was so harsh I could only take about 2-3 hits. I laid back gasping for air. This is when it gets interesting. I was quickly catapulted into a deep trance in which the thought to open my eyes never even crossed my mind.
Intense thoughts began to stream quickly through my head. I began to experience some pretty intense anxiety during this intital come up. I could see how someone less experienced with psychedelics could panic but I was able to quell these feeling fairly quickly by telling myself to just let it do its thing and try to enjoy it. All psychedelics seem to have an anxiogenic quality for me on the come up. Particularly mushrooms and now DMT it seems.
Once I began to relax and breath normally I was able to focus on the visual effects. Crystalline is a good way to describe the visuals. They consisted of interesting geometric shapes with a transparent overlapping quality. Not too colorful or intense but certainly interesting. They had a distinct quality, different than LSD or mushrooms. They developed and changed at a much slower rate and seemed more organic than mathematical, like LSD can be. This allowed me to study the vision intently and watch it slowly morph and change shape. At one point it seemed to take the shape of an insectoid creature but this could be a result of all the reports I have read describing strange alien entities influencing my interpretation of the visual. With LSD, I usually can exert some degree of control over the visuals. With DMT, its like I have absolutely no control over what im seeing and I'm just along for the ride.
Once I emerged from this trance, I felt some of the most intense feelings of euphoria and bliss wash over me. I have never felt that amazing even from MDMA or opiates. I gasped and moaned at the absolutely sublime pleasure that soaked into my body. Soon these feelings began to fade and I was left with a beautiful afterglow that lasted the rest of the day.
This was definitely an intense experience but I don't think It could be called a breakthrough. I am both scared and excited for my first breakthrough because although this experience was intense on a mental and physical level I was not overwhelmed at all by the visuals. In fact, I have experienced more intense CEVs from ~200mcg LSD. DMT is described as one of the most visuals psychedelics so this tells me that I have barely scratched the surface. I am very excited to explore this chemical ally further."
I just got a vaporgenie today and I'm excited to have a more efficient device. Smoking out of the bong has been hit or miss lately and it can be quite harsh on the lungs if it burns. Any tips on technique? I will be trying it out tomorrow morning with probably ~20 mg on a thin bed of cannabis as a test-run.
