Hey all

[amIHuman]

Hey! Occasional dmt tripper here. Found this site searching for "confusion returning to body from dmt trip". I can't find anything similar, nor have I met anyone with a similar description. (This is my intro, not a question...I'll work to post a reasonable question on a thread somewhere in here soon). Anyway, love what I see here, and it's interesting to see so many different perspectives. Fyi, currently at a stage where as I recognize the blastoff I fight it - out of fear or lack of control I think). It's weird, I used to just accept and enjoy the ride. The other side has been enlightening... Not always directly, and never really makes sense when trying to remember! But I grow in following weeks as I work (struggle?) to remember, understand, and then try to integrate the impact into real life (well, "this life" I guess is more accurate given some of what I have seen!)

I found lots of good stuff searching here before i joined. Seems a pretty caring bunch here so far.

Hello and welcome!

Thank you for the kind feedback - I look forward to hearing more about your experiences, particularly how they may have developed over time.

The "confusion on returning…" bit is a good teaser. Have you ever looked at bringing harmala alkaloids into your practice? By slowing and lengthening the effects they may assist your ability to recall details of the trip.

Here's a great post which details one member's methods for enhancing recall:

I'm going to respond just to the surface level content if that is okay.

The way to STAY in hyperspace (if one dares) is multiple doses of ayahuasca/pharmahuasca. Just ensure full inhibition is in place and keep consuming DMT or DMT laden plants. What I mean here is take the first dose and the trip comes in waves. As the waves and intensity die back, dose again. The first re-dose would just be DMT/DMT plant. The MAOI will last many hours but the DMT will be shorter lived. If you have been tripping for 8 hours and want to keep going, re-dose the MAOI.

The way to REMEMBER DMT trips is to train oneself to do just that and to be willing to sacrifice a bit of the pleasure of the comedown for the sake of memory consolidation.

I go IN with a strong intention to surrender, learn and remember. When the trance breaks, even though I'm still very intoxicated, the room is broken up into rainbow bubbles, etc., I begin repeating to myself (sometimes speaking aloud) what happened during the trip. I do this multiple times and fill in details as they occur to me. This technique is similar to one used to recall dreams.

The moment I can control my body, I sit up and start writing at least an outline of a report.

Then I work on this report in the ensuring hours and days (without additional DMT dosing) as the memories recur. I actively try to think about the trip.

I have had various degrees of success with this technique, but overall, I would say it is quite effective.

Have you ever tried vaporhuasca - eating enough MAOI to inhibit yourself then vaping DMT? I found it really slowed things down and allowed me a stunning level of detailed memory that stuck with me.
