First time dilema

[faroutman]

I am very interested in the DMT experience but yet to extract or try it. I have been spending some time researching it and would definately love to give it a try. Unfortunately, I have no-one close to share the experience with or anyone (who I could trust not to panic) willing to 'sit' with me during a vision. I would have to do the extraction at a time while my partner was away as I don't think they would understand my reasons for trying this and would probably freak out if they knew what I was attempting. I am not looking to get high. Other than smoking weed, I am now very anti-drugs - I have been clean almost 10 years, am very much over it now and happy to be so. Also, I never liked being 'too high' as it can be very unpleasant feeling like you could lose control. That hasn't personally happened to me but I have witnessed it and it was awful. If I could find someone to sit with me, I would feel a lot more comfortable (safety reasons) but is it really necessary? I would love to experience this special thing but I am hesitant about trying it as I don't know anyone who would understand why I am doing it. At first I thought, "maybe these are reasons why I shouldn't touch it" but then that would be giving in too easily. As you can see, I am in a bit of a predicament over this. Has anyone else found themselves in a similar situation? ps It has been over 10 years since doing psychedelics so I might be a bit rusty!!

Hope that all made sense!

I would not count on being able to get all the equipment and reagents together and doing an extraction without your partner finding out. There are a lot of logistics involved and I wouldn't even try to keep it hidden.

If this person is your partner after all, shouldn't they be able to understand your interest in DMT?

If you get a week to yourself, their are places in the UK that will give you 24 hour delivery for your starting material and the rest can be found on a 1 hour shopping trip. then allow 5 days for a thorough extraction.

I actually don't like having a sitter when it comes to DMT:

1. Knowing someones there just sitting around can be quite off putting.
2. You'll want to talk to them so much about it that you'll open your eyes and leave the experience prematurely.

I never can have a great breakthrough when someone else is around.

Say something like, "I read something interesting about psychedelics the other day, something called ayahuasca that's used for vision quests. I did a little research on it and based on what I've read, I think I'd like to experience it.. " and then give her that, I'm waiting for some kind of response, look. If she bites then show her you know what you're talking about and talk about the active ingredient being DMT, about how long it's been around, about people's experiences, and be prepared to tell her what your intentions are.

Before you do that, start sending her pretty pictures in emails or buy some psychedelic art.. get her used to those associations before without being direct and it won't feel so alien to her.

Better to be honest... You are going to want to at least share your account of the experience with your partner (its that type of thing) plus you don't want to have to explain the freebase pipe and torch lighter if it were to be found.

What he said... and hopefully she will appreciate your courage and honesty.

as it can be very unpleasant feeling like you could lose control.

Why do you think you won't "lose control" with a powerful thing like DMT?

Welcome! If you're hear the call you hear the call, once this happens spice is probably not something you can avoid...

just go slow

This National Geographic article is a fantastic introduction for first timers, causally send it to your partner and see what happens.



random plug- I recommend meditating for a month or two first to help remove any built up anxiety:
Meditation: Pre-Spice ‘Cleansing’ and General Well Being - Philosophy - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus This experience is one you can never control.


good luck! keep us posted!

Thanks for all your quick replies. All your comments were appreciated. I do intend to tell my partner about it. You're right, honesty and courage would be the best option. I have no intention of using DMT in the near future, its still way too soon. I want to research it further, learn some breathing techniques and try to work on some of those everyday anxieties that I have allowed to get on top of me lately. I will work on it, get back to my old self and keep you all posted of my experience when the time comes. Thanks again.

no need for a sitter, just take a few puffs and roll onto the floor.

Absolutely!!! With vaped spice, I don't think a sitter is needed.

I understand your trepidation,

I too don't feel comfortable doing it alone, and any time I have done it, it's been with experienced friends....

But as my sitter said, it makes no difference because once you launch your not even in the same universe anyway!!

I think after a couple of breakthroughs you'll be more comfortable going solo, it's just the power of this molecule is a lot to take in, and I guess at first you just need the comfort of knowing somewhere in the back of your head that you have someone you trust there.
