I'm a new member, and this is my introduction essay

Hello everyone!

I just made an account here, and this page has really given me a lot of information. So thank you!
I've been meditating a lot for the past weeks, and it feels great.
I was in Amsterdam last week and I tried the magic truffles for the first time. It was my first psychedelic experience. It really blew my mind and I've gotten new perspectives on the world we live in, and it also helped me decide what I want to do with my life.
Since then I've gotten really interested in psychedelics.

I've heard about DMT, but didn't really know much about it's effects. Some friends of mine told me more about it and the next day I started researching it.
I've decided that this is something I want to try, and that I'm ready for.
I think that DMT can really help me evolve, and open me up to unknown dimensions, realities and so on.
I've been researching different teks to extract the molecyle, and there's just a few questions I have left, that I will save for another post.
I'd love to hear you're experiences with DMT, and how you perceive the world around you and your life after your experience.

I feel like this is the beginning of really getting to know myself on a spiritual level, freeing myself from the rules that society has set and getting new knowledge.

I'm ready for my journey!

I'd love to hear you're experiences with DMT, and how you perceive the world around you and your life after your experience.

The experience itself is difficult to describe, if not impossible. Since there's hundreds of trip reports our there I won't try to go into detail of the experience itself, but I do think it is one of the most intense, strangest, and profound spiritual experiences a person can have. After I came down from my first smoked DMT experience I was so astonished that the only thing I could say for 30 minutes was "Oh my God!" This was after having years of experience with other psychedelics and thinking I had a decent model of the nature of reality. My first smoked DMT experience taught me that not only do I not know s*** about the universe/reality, but that the true nature of reality is so strange I will likely never understand it.

However, I don't find smoked DMT particularly useful for the personal evolution, insights, or epiphanies that longer lasting psychedelics can facilitate. Mainly because it lasts for such a short time and is so intense and strange that it's harder to bring back useful information to incorporate into your life. If this is your motivation I would highly recommend reading up on ayahuasca.
