Not to derail, but to bring it back to what somebody was saying about frequent tripping- I believe this to be a relative matter.
When I trip, I trip often. Several times a week perhaps. For what I am trying to get out of it, which is usually an artistic achievement, it seemingly never fails. It dissolves the critical faculties and allows creativity to flow with ease.
Sure, I can channel creativity and still be productive without spice, but sometimes there's not much reason to. DMT is a tool that seems to enhance a session without fail, and can very often turn a slow-going day in to one of extreme progress. Also, integration is usually quite a fast process this way, since the revelations are documented in song as they come, and are then revisited many times over through the refinement process of writing.
Of course, I'm not talking about breakthrough doses here- just enough to heighten one's creative senses enough to get some great stuff flowing. It's not always necessary though, it depends on what phase of creation one is at and what they're trying to accomplish I suppose. It's also essential to see things in a non-altered state for objective clarity. It's all about finding a balance, which is relative to the individual and their needs.
In the right volumes though, psychedelics assist the artist's state of mind very well. In fact, I actually believe that the artistic brain is naturally psychedelic, and that DMT is probably an important biological component of these states to begin with. A bit of supplementation only supports this kind of work, if you ask me.
