First DMT Trip
Tuesday 7th October 2025
I weighed out the minimum my scales can which is 0.01g (10mg) and divided that powder in half to be approx 5mg.
I’d vaped my usual bit of balanced weed earlier in the evening and by 9.30pm, the effects are usually wearing off about now, more about this later.
Got myself comfy in my office chair, some ambient music playing via Youtube with video on screen, Modular Synth music in case you want to know.
Into the glass pipe went the off-white slightly yellow powder for a cold-start, heated with a jet flame lighter until I could just see a wisp of white rise up, then a slow and steady long pull on the pipe while still heating, being careful not to over heat.
Effects started almost instantly and as I was putting the pipe and lighter down I felt a rapid deepening of effects, a pull onward, everything goes like creamy melted plastic, and my immediate surroundings are pulsating, edges of things like outlined bubble-type bouncing in and out, the music and surroundings seemed to guide the colours of what came next….
At this point the closed eye visuals were intense, I can’t lie I was resisting, scared that I was overwhelmed, I was in a sort of tunnel of bright white with crisp coloured swirls around the outside. The colours were that of some of my modular synth cables in slightly subdued orange, yellow and red, I was still being pulled in, I realised I could breath and made an effort like I do in Yoga or when trying to Meditate to see if I could ground myself.
I’m honestly not sure if this helped but for a tiny part of my brain that had recognised the default reality of me. My eyes were open, my eyes were closed, the closed eye visuals occasionally bled through into open eyes. Intense.
The pulsing visuals continued with open eyes and things on my desk changed and grew, things slowly started to become more subtle and I realised I was heading back to my regular feelings.
Half an hour later, after a little vape of weed, I was pretty much wide awake and refreshed as it was time for bed I noticed a stream of thoughts passing by saying all the things I was grateful for. In bed I tossed and turned for quite a while before getting to sleep properly after 1.30am.
The day after I felt a bit jittery, also felt positive, happy, a bit lyrical in thoughts and small wins, everything was very diligent at work and I completed a heck of a busy day, the occasional conversation with customers felt a bit weird but very coherent and better than normal.
Almost forgot, on getting up and doing my usual morning routine I came face to face with a spider in our utility room, I laughed and smiled at the spider as it reminded me that the night before that my LED lit-up computer Mouse had changed into a large black techno-spider, not scary but really cool, kinda like a black Iron man Suit..
Yep, there was a moment where I thought never again, though obviously now I’ve reminded myself that the purpose of this was exploration, hoping to expand my mind, to see what’s out there and a desire to increase my connection to nature.
I’ve been trying to find words to describe the sudden onset of effects and the best I can come up with is; When you are asleep and you fall backwards in a dream and it wakes you up, that bright white shock of suddenly waking yourself up…That! But constant! Right from the onset of white tunnel colourful tentacle spirals pulling me in, constant, waking / falling / pulled.
Things for next time:
Do not vape any weed in the hours leading up to DMT.
Be more intentional, I had planned to do it at the weekend but something came up so I just thought I’d get it ‘out of the way’ now! I could have made a better choice.
Sit and breath, maybe do it after Yoga and be in a more comfortable position on the sofa or laying down.
Get some better weighing scales so I can properly measure the powder.
Drink water beforehand, I was gagging for a drink once I could think about something else!
Put the Pipe further in my mouth, sucking via the front of your lips gives you weird numb lips!
Set Intentions to explore and try to let go, go with it.
2nd Trip
Sunday 12th October 2025
Same dose as last time, approx 5mg, this time I reheated the pipe to reconnect after the first hit.
I managed to melt my lips again, guess I’ll learn!
I set the scene with some lovely singing bowl music I sometimes use for Yoga, closed the curtains and got the cats out of the way. I was so anxious this morning waiting to do this and my heart was doing double time, tried to calm myself on my Yoga mat but it wasn’t really working, this morning has been like waiting to do the Nevis Bungy in Queenstown NZ the lead-up is more scary than stepping off.
My wife was sat outside the door keeping the cats entertained so they didn’t scratch the door wanting to come in.
I took the hit and stepped off…
No tentacle tunnel this time, just an increasing intensity of liquid patterns and distinct colours with a stuttering, glitchy jittering click-over into an amazingly beautiful, calm, fractal world where I was being welcomed by a transparent fractal liquid skeletal being, you could maybe say angelic though it / she reminded me of my of my fav films ‘The Abyss’. From what I could tell her body tailed off into a long tail with no legs and definitely a feminine vibe. Beautiful!
I was so grateful and said thank you many times as I was slowly leaving, such a place of gratitude. I left the eye shades on for all of the comedown to enjoy the patterns while continuing the giving thanks.
But heck, I’m sure I was being welcomed, it feels like a privilege to be there.
Heart rate afterwards is chilled as F***, I’m relaxed, refreshed and coherent.
I think after today the cats can come in if they want.
Amazing.
Things for next time:
Must remember to put pipe further in mouth so not distracted by weird lip sensations.
More accurate weighing scales on the way so I will compare to my old scales.
I need to get some Vape Juice and try figure out how to do that for top-up hits to stay DMT-side longer rather than worrying about the glass pipe.
Find out how to clean the glass pipe.
3rd Trip
Saturday 18th October 2025
Pipe into Mouth, FFS, Remember Pipe into mouth, not on lips!
Single hit of 10mg, Absolutely no stuttering into the state this time, straight there and into colourful swirl-world. Its honestly harder to remember this one, lots and lots of moving fractal colours, more is definitely more, the feelings lasted longer but my stupid mind kept asking questions, lots of spinning moving colours patterns were quite DNA helix style.
I’d left the spare room door open this time so the cats could come in if they wanted, one of them brushed past my foot and made me smile then coming for a cuddle on my lap and the swirling patterns changed to have a very feline look to them again making me smile.
Only the merest of hints of entity-like faces, I guess they must have been busy.
Maybe a slight hint of a white light ahead.
This felt enough for today so I didn’t try reheating the pipe but I reckon there’s a quick visit left in there for another day.
Today felt like it was missing an element of DMT induced breath-work which the other pipe’s created a switching-over or syncing-up feeling between breath and experience.
I did find a single tear under my eye mask.
But yeah, melted lips, gagging for a drink again.
Fully compus mentis and bright afterwards
Things for next time:
Lip balm!
Pipe properly in mouth.
Quick drink before eye shades go on.
Calm mind then just be.
Let go.
Cat felt lovely but that and the cooler temperature of the room were a distraction.
