first time dmt confusion

[gph363]

My friend recently tried DMT for the first time having never taking it before, or tried any psychedelics. His experience was not good or bad! He was smoking from a meth pipe with a friend with DMT they extracted them selfs after lots of research. His friend was lighting the pipe for him and when ready he took his first hit he didn't have a problem with the taste or harshness in his lungs so had a massive hit, straight away after and very quickly had his second even bigger hit. He waited a few seconds then went for his third hit, but could not speak to say he was ready so had to just point to the pipe, after this hit his head went back and his body felt very weird like it was dissolving and disappearing. He saw crazy colours spinning very fast and was traveling at impossible speed. The colours then started to turn into some being at first he thought it was a clown and his first thought was is this evil then as soon as he thought this he realised it wasn't. At this point he could still sense his body and sense the being wanting to take him somewhere so he let him, then the friend with him said his head just completely flopped over like he was no longer here. He saw thousands of beings and can't quite remember it but after about 30 second his eyes opened and he was freaking out as he felt like he was going to die but couldn't work out if it was the trip or if he had made the DMT wrong and was dying for real. Trying to fight the lose of his body very hard he started to gag like he was throwing up his friend grabbed a bucket and held it in-front of him and started rubbing his back. Now to his friend he was just making the noises and not throwing up but to him he was throwing up in a bucket at high velocity and sick was going everywhere. He was holding the bucket him self but it kept trying to melt and so did his body hands legs everything and he thought if he let it he would die for real so kept fighting it.
his friend to him was also not rubing his back but sat in front of him. He could feel these things trying to take him away and he could sense he should just let himself go and that something was trying to calm him down. After seven minutes of thinking he was spewing up he managed to lose the sense of dying and stood up things were still crazy trippy and it took him 30mins for this to stop!!!! After the trip was over he had the sense that he should of let him self go and not tried to come out of it but he did really think he was dying. he doesn't know if he smoked to much or just freaked himself out. Making him self think he was dying when he wasn't even really being sick. he did lots of research beforehand and new you lose your body and can feel like your dying and thought he was ready for this but the fact he wasn't sure about the DMT freaked him out and he thought it was real because it felt so real. his friend tried and did four little hits and had a nice experience. the weird thing is, is when he stood up he was trying to explain what happened. he was excited and loved the feeling he was now having and couldn't say the experience was good or that it was bad he said he was trying to be taken away from his body but thought he would die so fought it very hard sensing the whole time these things just saying your ok let yourself go and felt like if he didn't fight it he would of been ok. he is now in a debate to try it again or not! These are only the details he can remember as the whole thing was to much to take in.

DMT is a very serious substance .
It sounds like your friend had a bit of a scare.
My advise to you guys would be to use lower doses and see how it goes.
It's not for every one and seems to stick with a minority rather than the majority .
Good luck to you

Yep, sounds about right! Those feelings can be extremely overwhelming, obviously. But rest assured that many, if not all of us here, have gone through something similar. It was not your physical self that was dying, but most likely it was your ego. Some people find it very hard to let go because it is terrifying. And about your friend, having never taken any psychedelics, I can see why this would be so intense. We like to call these things "hyperslaps" ! Or at least I find it to be an amusing term.

I second DeltaSpice on lowering the dosage if you feel so inclined. Starting low and building your way up will help you prepare for the more powerful journeys. But also remember, that DMT will likely show you something different each time. It is nearly impossible to fully prepare for such an event. Meditation and breathing can help soothe the nerves before blasting off as well.

DMT is no joke. It is incredibly powerful and can wipe away your entire reality in seconds. I recently had a very powerful journey. I'll leave a link here if you would like to read it. I have had many breakthroughs but this was the first one that I met any entities which blew my mind!

EDIT: Also, this is a very informative post about the ins and outs of using DMT and whether or not it is suited for everyone. Why you should NOT take DMT. Honestly, I think everyone on the Nexus should at least give this a glance.
