Hi Ez.

I'm new to this site also.  I finished my first extraction a week ago or so and have tried smoked dmt a few times now.  It's so so hard to remember the experiences.  As Joe Rogan put it, "It's like gold dust slipping through your fingers".  Because of the fleetingness of the experiences, I feel as though they haven't been able to really deeply impact me thus far.  I'm used to longer-lasting psychedelics myself.  Maybe an 8-hour trip just gives the mind more time to integrate the experience and thus hold on to if for longer.  While smoked dmt is an intense mind explosion, I'd love to experience the longer-lasting ayahuasca journey at some point in my life.  What I'm trying to say is that the fact that you've experienced that journey before makes you an "experienced traveller" in your own right, and I'm glad you found this site.
