So I’ve never tried DMT but always wanted to. I’m planning on maybe trying it for the very first time in the next few months. I had a few questions.


I have a Sherlock GVG pipe that I will use.

My questions.

I live alone and don’t really have anyone. I trust to be a sitter. I’ve read where they suggest you have a sitter. Will I be OK doing it alone?


I won’t jump out my window or walk out of my room naked or anything will I lol

Having a hot pipe and using a lighter. Well, I have time to set those down? I don’t wanna end up burning myself or catching my bed on fire.

Smoking it this way in a Sherlock pipe how long does the experience usually last. I’ve read a few minutes?

Is the experience all closed eyes. Or do you have your eyes open the whole time.

I assume with the Sherlock pipe I just take one big giant inhale? Or will I have to take several inhale?


Well, that’s all of the questions I can think of now. Thank you for any input. You can give me to my questions. And also if you have any other information, I need to know.


Thanks
 
For me, I'd recommend sitting in a comfy chair, set your self up so you have somewhere to put your pipe down safely, have a Glass of water or a drink too.

I started with a glass pipe and a jet lighter and I made sure I had a little tray to put the hot things down on so I didn't either burn myself or set something alight!

You will be just fine all by yourself, you won't be running around naked once the DMT hits, you'll be sat pretty still. Some shakes can be normal so just let them come out if they start.
Open and closed eye experiences are both valuable, a blind fold / eye mask can help you go deeper with less DMT.

Take your Pipe hit, usually a long slow inhale, Hold it in while taking a drink, and relax, let go..... its the speed that reality changes that is the SHOCK, the destinations are beautiful, love, peace and welcoming.

Good luck and be sure to report back.

And remember start low and go slow, you can always take more hits and re-enter the space again and again. I started with a badly weight 5 milligrams and got pretty far with that, but you'll have to experiment and find your own levels.
 
Thank you for your detailed answers.. That makes me feel better..

Can you tell me the avg time the experience usually lasts on average?
 
As someone new to this, I can absolutely guarantee that you will not be running anywhere on DMT 😂

Some of the other users who left comments in this thread have far more experience than me, but based on my limited time with DMT, I find that DMT has an incredible power to lock you right into place. You might even find it effortful to remember that you have the option to close your eyes, at least that's coming from my experience.

I also considered a Sherlock pipe, but I was concerned that it may be a fire hazard, especially when doing it alone, so I'd actually be curious to hear from the others how they manage this aspect. I settled for a vape, vapes are safer, more reliable and consistent, but apparently harder to break through on.
 
from my personal experience, so take this with a grain of salt, but:
-you won't be running anywhere. Or walking anywhere. Standing up in any capacity is pretty much off the table, for that matter.
-you will be able to put your lighter and pipe down while you are holding your breath. I'd make sure somewhere safe to put them is close at hand, though.
-Is "Sherlock pipe" some terminology I don't know, or are you talking about an actual, big-ass, meerschaum pipe? either way, you should be able to see reality again in 5-10 minutes, after 20 you should be completely back to normal.
-It makes literally no difference if your eyes are open or closed. It will be incomprehensible and you probably wont know if they were open or shut after the fact.
-Seriously, please explain the nature of this Sherlock pipe, because I'm picturing you in a deerstalker blasting off and mumbling about finding clues. But i actually don't know. I use, and would recommend you invest in, a vape pen for it. Guarantee there'll be a thread somewhere on here for good, cheap options.
 
Thanks everyone for the great input. It really helps. Yes I have read here and lots of other sites that the Sherlock GVG is up there as one of the best devices to use for DMT.


But I am open to other suggestions... :)
