syberdelic said:Yea, I have never had anything even close to tripping on weed. Sometimes I will smoke when I feel like I'm tripping too hard and need to take the edge off. It seems to counter tripping to me much how an anti-psychotic would. The ONLY thing that I've experienced even remotely like this is with mescaline. If I've taken a small dose and just barely tripping, I will smoke and the experience seems to unfold into a deeper head space and more vivid visuals. Now with a larger dose of mescaline, smoking will again simply take the edge off.
It's very interesting how differently we all react to these substances.

jma182 said:man thats cool i love weed tripping, never seen a chinese dragon in my travels nor a snake, i wonder if this happens to you but i get a really intense body sensation when i start weed tripping and i manage to go deep, when i saw the dragon and the lady, my whole body felt like the initial vibration of a DMT trip. Normally i just saw patterns and other effect.
When ever I get into a trip like this from weed, my body does the same thing. I start getting super slow, and can't keep my eyes open. I feel a throbbing in the center of my forehead, and begin seeing geometry. A lot of the times I will be seeing pyramids, and massive eyes with in triangles shooting lights everywhere. I see what I can only describe as gravitational fields holding light, and pulling it all into a center point. Converging fields of energy everywhere...
I saw the Dragon, and I saw the female counterpart -- which I recognized as the female entity I encountered during an ayahuasca experience. I am just really curious on how the bridge is gapped. What have I done to get this sort of reaction from weed, to the point where I get to a space where all of those energies can converge
Infectedlsd said:In my experience there's a white light connected to the forehead. It's not neccesarily in the body or somewhere on earth. It's an astral light. I saw it on DMT when meditating on 'Love/looshe' a concept I picked up in some of Robert Monroe's books. I thought, well, show me the goods on DMT. It instantly showed goods. Around the light is a space and the light is directly entering my forehead through form a a 'laser' beam. I imagine it might be very intoxicating to have this energy move through you. I don't know though I'm not an expert.

Except for MDMA (and/or MDA) obviously laced with speed, I've never had a bad experience or a bad come down. I am very sensitive to stimulants and the after effects are absolutely aweful. If I take 300+mg (body weight about 175lbs.) of pure MDMA, it's a very intense roll and leaves me feeling the next day like I drank a few beers the night before and a bit of a sore jaw. I never get depressed or "blah". I also have never noticed a degradation in the quality of a trip when MDMA was consumed recently.
Now, I consider myself lucky in this regard. I've seen many others have horrible come downs from even very reasonable dosages. I've seen people vomit from MDMA which I have also never done. I've seen people take LSD or shrooms recently after MDMA and get little or no visual effects and just a minor body load.
I suspect there is a relation to the following but I'm a bit lost on the specifics or mechanism and this is where I consider myself unlucky. It seems that when I take DMT+MAOI orally, it royally fucks up my stomach for the duration of the trip. I'm guessing that it has something to do with the 5-HT3 receptors in my stomach, how they react to MDMA and DMT, and the modulation of serotonin by the MAO enzymes.
Anyway, I understand why you never want to take MDMA again and can get behind it fully. The one thing that I would suggest is to use your experiences (good or bad) to understand your own mind and body better. As an example, having a bad come down off MDMA could possibly be indicative of low serotonin levels. If this is the case, simply taking 5-HTP supplements can provide a huge boost in quality of life.
Thanks for this post. I haven't done mdma since I started using dmt but I've been thinking I'm due for a roll. Now I've changed my mind. I'd be horrified if a fleeting chemical high like mdma damaged what dmt has given me. Maybe it wouldn't do that in my case but it doesn't seem worth the risk to find out. Like you I prefer acid anyway.jma182 said:So to sum it up i will never take MDMA again in my life cause it interfered with my DMT experiences in a very repulsive and negative way, so i now loathe it. particularlly since i can get all of the lovey dovey feelings from LSD, plus a whole lot more, MDMA hits me like a really really shitty acid, kinda nice body high 0 visuals, nasty comedown, most def not the substance for me.
