Increased visual peripherals from using DMT?

[anrchy]

So I want to say its official, although I'm not exactly 100% what is happening or how it works, but I have noticed an increase in my visual peripheral awareness. I know I've heard of people claiming this same thing in here, but I wanted to make a thread about it since it has become fairly strong in me lately.

For anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about... Slight movements out of the corner of my eyes are extremely noticeable.

It's become a lot more distracting lately but I'm learnin to live with it I guess. My goal is to utilize it in a positive manner. Everyday several times a day I will catch something move which causes me to focus my attention in that direction. The thing is it has become so sensitive that it takes me awhile sometimes to figure out what it was that was moving or if there actually was something in the first place. At first I started thinking I was hallucinating or HPPD ect. Because the smallest of things can move in the farthest corner of my peripheral vision and I notice them as if they are larger objects and a lot of times the movement was actually so small it takes me awhile to find it.

More on this later anyone else havin this same phenomenon please chime in.

I see that too, or it sounds very familiar. the most visuals I get from my peripherals is when a white wall is in the corner of my eye(often movement, with some blackness) or being in a white room, looks alive. these static thingies with the motion of a fly. but im guessing its either hddp or just the mind, that doesnt register the info, so it shows these black moving things instead.

I,ve gotten this too , I think it wears off over time when not visiting
Hyperspace regularly. Or maybe we just get used to it .

I noticed my sensitivity to movement increase after having taken mushrooms a long time ago. Also after tryijg DMT my first time it increased. I haven't noticed it decrease during the times when I don't use DMT for a long while. Especially lately, I don't exhibit "regular" use of DMT. I often take long breaks either due to integration period or other reasons. It's almost as if sometimes when I dose my ability to percieve outside my normal vision gets better. I guess a good test would be to abstain from psychadelics for a year or so and see how it is effected.

The thing is I know the "movement" I see are actual objects moving IRL. Sometimes it takes me awhile to figure out what it is. For instance I'm at work, my main focus is on the paperwork im filling out, I see something out of the corner of my eye. I look and study the area and see nothing. Moments later it happens again. Eventually while studying the area the movement is coming from i will finally see what it was doing it and I will look away and observe it happening again to make sure.

So I'm not talking about stuff that isn't really happening or moving. I'm wondering if I can learn to increase my perceptive abilities to eventually learn the shapes colors and movements of certain objects so that I can identify things without having to focus my main attention towards it.

Same here, sometime it scares me cos it feels like something is actually there even if its not.

I hope it wont ware off though because I see this as widened awareness of our surroundings. Awareness that catches more that a usual eye would, something ,that IMHO may be beyond this reality.

Or maybe its just brain making it up

Ya I hope it doesnt wear off either. I know that while on psychedelics your visual acuity is definitely increased, curious as it seems to become increasingly prominent in sober reality.

I also feel as if the way in which I perceive things intellectually has become more focused. I feel more sharp and in tune. DMT has definitely helped me in being more aware of my actions, thoughts, and emotions. So that i can better direct them properly.

sounds normal, i wouldn't worry. a lot of us here 'hallucinate' all the time. you can push this sort of thing with practice and enter some very dmt-ish visionary places. Staring with a certain relaxed focus is one way to do it...especially in mirrors

this probably all relates to how some good ayahuasca shamans eventually learn to bring in the visions with the icaros, while not even taking the brew. many on the nexus report this sort of thing

especially in mirrors

indeed, i made a scrying mirror for this very purpose

it was considerably bigger than the one in that tutorial, and it came out great.

 

[DisEmboDied]

Because you have 'awakened'.

There are many things possible after DMT use, I can enter into REM land consciously now I put a little effort into it.

What I wonder is if anyone has become aware of their own telepathic abilities?

It hasnt happened to me yet but I definitely see how one could learn this in the nexus and bring this ability back with them....
