DMT like states in dreams?

[jayjay001]

Since I recently started vaping DMT a bit, I've noticed some similar experiences in a few dreams. I don't normally remember my dreams, but at least some of them feel that way.

One, just last night, caught my attention. I don't remember most of the dream, but towards the end I was in a dark tunnel and apparently there were others there with me that wanted to go somewhere. There was a woman there who asked everyone "Does anyone have any questions about why things are repeating?" I mentioned that I did, because I feel as though I am trapped in cycles of negative emotions and don't know how to get out, but she just glared at me, didn't address me and said, "Does anyone have ACTUAL questions, and REALLY doesn't understand why things are repeating?" She seemed to be suggesting that I did know why things were repeating, but perhaps also knew that I couldn't do anything about it. : )

Anyway, we were all supposed to travel by jumping into a whale's mouth and letting it take us somewhere. It was a relatively small whale though, maybe killer whale size, and I was too afraid to jump in. I remember trying to close my eyes and just jump but nothing seemed to happen.

Anyway, either after the woman made her second comment, or after I couldn't get in the whale, I felt as though I was trapped in a cycle of sensation. Like, I was just following reflex after reflex, in and endless circle, hoping that something would change.

I guess that's a major theme of my life, but the actual sensation of being caught, helpless, in a cycle of sensations was extremely reminiscent of how DMT has felt to me on occasion.

Anybody relate?

When I was young I used to have these strange sensations right before falling asleep. I would go into almost a trance like sensation, I could feel my energy growing past my physical body. It felt as if I was severely obese all over, yet i could also feel as though I was extremely thin, like my entire body was just sticks.

My minds voice would increase in speed of thought and tone. It was almost as if I could think more quickly. I would lay there and try to observe it best I could. It would only last at most, 10 minutes. I think.

The first time this ever happened, was when I was about 8 yrs old I think. Directly following afterwards I went into what I now believe was the hyperspace. I remember seeing, and being a part of, a vast collection of piping that "something" traveled through or along. I could essentially become part of it and travel along it myself. They were made of many types of something, different colors and sizes and they all were just like a network of plumbing underground. The "me" that I was was not a body of any kind. i just was there and thats all I know.

So my memory fades slightly during this, mainly cause it was so long ago and I rarely spoke of it to anyone. Afterwards though, the very last part I do remember was being in an immense open space. It reminded me of being in space when I was a child, but empty space, with out stars or planetary bodies in view at all. In the very center of this was what I am now realizing, I believe, to be The Central Light, I found the description in the Lexicon.

I tried to go into this light. I felt as if thats what i was suppose to do. When i got close it would pulse, which would cause me to fly away from it. Every time I did this the same thing would happen. Over and over again I tried, and finally I almost was in the very center of this thing and it imploded or exploded or something and sent me very far away. That's all I remember.

I just now realized all this after reading your post. I believe what I had was a DMT experience in my sleep/trance when I was young. My mind is BLOWN right now. i have always wondered what it was, and later in life I had spoken to many "out there" people about it hoping to get some kind of clarity. Now i have it. OMG I am freaking out right now.

Ok, so the physical sensation I would feel before falling asleep still happened to me many time between then and now, but it hasnt happened for a few years now, and before that several. It kind of stopped i think.

Has anyone experienced anything like this before? What are your thoughts on my experience I had? Do you think thats what happened, that i had a DMT experience?

This is nuts!

Your experience sounds something like my hyperspace journeys sometimes

The second picture the most. Wow dude. I am convinced that I was having a DMT experience without taking anything! My mind gets blown everyday from this topic!

Last night I had a really psychedelic dream. I've had a few before where I'm in the dream and I eat some psychedelic and then the effects come (unrealistically fast), but somehow you can later recognize that the effects were just approximations based on your real-life experiences. But last night wasn't even like a dream to begin with, I didn't have a body I was just in a sort of space, and there was very very intricate and colorful patterns changing all around me, and I became semi-lucid and started to think "holy crap this is like hyperspace!", and only after I woke up I realized it had been in fact a dream.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the theory about DMT affecting dreams would be real. Maybe most dreams just feel so normal because there's so many other factors involved, and only sometimes you get a higher DMT release without the other factors present. I dunno, but it's still cool whatever it is.

It makes us further question(again) the nature of DMT...



I guess just another of the life's great mysteries... Oh well at least we can observe/witness it's gifts.

I once had a pcp-like experience in a dream, sensations identical to getting dusted.
