Flashbacks from using DMT?

Migrated topic.

LSD people report having flashbacks long after using LSD, later in life. Like during driving suddenly seeing things, and they weren't even high.

I wonder if there are flashbacks from using DMT?

This nonsense about flashbacks being caused by residual LSD in the body is completely impossible. It can’t stay in the body more than 1 day. It’s a very unstable compound and begins coming apart as soon as it enters your body.

Flashbacks have nothing to do with drugs. Some people have flashbacks to the Vietnam War, flashbacks to natural disasters, etc. Flashbacks are caused by extreme trauma. LSD can cause extreme trauma in some people, and so it can cause flashbacks in some people. Anything that can cause extreme trauma can cause flashbacks.

With that said, yes, if DMT scares the living crap out of you, and it can for some people, then you can get flashbacks to the experience.

SWIM and almost all of his friends have used LSD hundreds of times throughout their lifetime and none have ever had a single flashback. Only certain people can get flashbacks. For SWIM an extremely bad LSD trip is not enough to be considered traumatic, and so he just can’t get flashbacks to it. It’s not scary enough for SWIM. But for some people the experience is extremely traumatic and such people are likely to get flashbacks to it.

yes.. but I would go even further and say that flashback is an even more common phenomenon, which is related to deep emotional imprinting. Put on a record you listened a lot to at a different phase in your life and you will get a certain flashback. Just like going an old familiar place and so on.

Some perceptual disturbance related is also present in waking consciousness but we dont usually pay attention to it. After one takes these substances, its possible to get more aware of them

Yeah, I forgot about that. It's not only trauma that can trigger a flashback. Even a pleasant cent can trigger a flashback to a positive time period in someone’s life.

Agreed any significant episode can result in flashbacks. The very fact that the government tells people there are flash backs from hallucinogens biased all the reports. Like a placebo effect. Any alteration in consciousness, will result in people claiming they had a flashback. Not that people don't associate it with the hallucinogens, but it is certainly not a result of the chemicals themselves, it is a physiological process that normally occurs. It has to do with the experience not the chemicals.

Don`t know about LSD 25 much because most of the claimed LSD blotters what ILPT applied sublingually were similar to LSA trips from natural sources. Now he believe all blotters were either LSA or LSH and maybe little of something else. Those LSA trips are psychedelic but hardly visual therefore ILPT always has some weed or hash in his paws to enhance effect.

He HAS FLASBACKs FROM LSA (LSH) several times(within few months period)after sesion and he loves it. He know how to induce flasbacks it`s easy. Just smoke some more of that weed smoked whilst tripping and chance to get flasback is at least 50% higher. Also when he works overnight and then he carry on without sleeping,following fatigue increasing chance for flashback. Recently he discovered that inactive virola resin gave him flashback (it could be induced with traces of 5-meo dmt or dmt presented)He firstly though that his resin is active when taken subling. but soon he realised it was just a very short LSA flashback.

It`s Excellent and he loves it.Tired, he still carry on.He get simply stoned and ( when lucky) suddenly he is for short time in LSA world :lol: Unfortunately it`s for `short time` literally :cry: Won`t last longer then few minutes compare to the 8 hours trip :(
Sometimes when he is very tired just couple of hits of average quality weed get him straight flashback and he is not able to finish bowl. :shock:

He Has NOT flashback from smoked DMT,jungle spice, bufotenine, and oral harmala or smoked harmala extract

There are maybe some flashbacks from shrooms and cacti but this will ILPT personally investigate as soon as parrot bring those goodies.😉

But for now it looks like only big and complicated tryptamine molecules of psychedelics are somehow able to give short flashbacks even months after trip if appropriately induced.

Tropan alkaloids no need any induction. If is not very high dose what was ingested the trip is actually like set of some weird devilish flashback as one is not sure whe tripping and what is normal.Even ILPT was a bit mental when loads of weird hallucinations and flashbacks were experienced even days after ingestion.

ILPT reckon ibogain (big and complicated molecule)would be flashback friendly but he is to scared to try it.

But he would probably go for its sister compound in more use friendly vocanga

That doesn't qualify as a flashback in my book. That's a drug induced effect caused by the marijuana. Somehow marijuana becomes more psychedelic after using certain types of tryptamines. It's not technically a flashback. A flashback happens without any drug interaction. Although what you’re alluding to is similar to a flashback, it is a different phenomenon specific to marijuana use. SWIM doesn’t smoke marijuana and has never experience that effect ever, so he can’t comment too much on marijuana induced psychedelic effects. He knows some who have had that same experience from smoking marijuana a few days after using acid. But it technically isn’t a flashback.

I get kind of flashbacks sometimes. But it's more like I suddenly remember a part of a DMT trip. Or how it feels and how the visuals look. It can be quite strong but usually just happens in the days following a very strong DMT trip.

I have had flashbacks from a particularly strong ayahuasca experience. Overdosed a bit and blacked out. For some weeks after, while laying in bed between waking and sleeping I could suddenly enter this ayahuasca space were I was screaming my lungs out. Suddenly I was just there, and 2 seconds or so later, I was out of it. Wouldn't really call it that scary, perhaps because it lasted such a short time. Never had it before the overdose, and not after the first month either.

SWIM had generated a "FLASHBACK" the day after using Elemi oil by drinking some chamomile tea just recently. I find that very curious. The tea does nothing on the day SWIM is tripping, but the following day, it brings the trip back for a short while. I would love to know how it works.

this is the weirdest and coolest thing that i could possibly call a flashback...a day after i had taken some mescaline..i was fairly sober by that point and i was sitting here on the nexus..typing on a thread like this..and for a thirty second period...all the sudden i was seeing a different room than the one i was in...the room was larger and there were desks and people sitting at them working..i could actually look around and see all of this happening...i sorta came out of it for a second....but when i relaxed again i sorta fell into this other room again..for a short period..only a few seconds

i mean i can remember the size of the room..the color of the peoples shirts...their hairstyle...desk size and height...

it was probably one of the coolest phenomena that i have ever experienced...

If I think about the beings I have met on DMT then I can vividly see them in my memory banks which sure makes life weird ha ha
I dont know if you would call that a flashback or not
