Holy shit man, isnt 200 mgs for your first time dose like really really excessive? That takes some serious balls. But the experience you had was invaluable in so many ways. I had a near death experience in 2010 that changed me exactly how you describe your DMT trip changed you, could lend credence to the fact that our bodies pump DMT at the point of death or near death. It wasnt very psychadelic but lots of spiritul guides, telepathy, being able to communicate with nature and trees, it was pretty much half light and good and half dark and evil with demonic entities as well. Anyways this changed me forever, I now have spiritual beleifs where before this happened I did not. I just didnt know any better and never really put alot of thought into it. Now Im almost positive about what will happen at death, and its not going to be going unconscious for an eternity.
Yeah, 200mgs (0.20g) is an incredibly high dose, for my first time, looking back, it seems insane...but I don't regret it.
...I'm always honest when telling others what happened, I don't try to hide the difficult and traumatic aspects of the experiance.
I always use high dose, though I can't say that I recommend anyone try this.
I'm of the opinion that DMT gives you access to death, without your physical body dying.
In Buddhism there's a place which is after death, but before reincarnation, this place is called the bardo, and it's not necessarily a safe place, the Tibetan book of dead goes into detail regarding these in between states and bardos, and can be used as a guide to the DMT flash as well as physical death.
while in a meningitis induced coma in 2008, a neurosurgeon, Dr. Eben Alexander, had a near death experience, because of the bacterial meningitis he should have had absolutely no brain function, yet this man returns from his near death experiance and zero brain function with a story that could have came from Dr. Rick strassman's "DMT the spirit molecule" patient reports.
I'm not necessarily sure that endogenous DMT plays a role in the chemistry of death, while this is a possibility, I don't believe it's ever been confirmed, however I think DMT gives you access to death itself, which is why it's not surprising that the Tibetan book of the dead, and near death experiances, and in fact any experiance we have involving the conscious experiance of death and return to a living physical body is identical to the dimethyltryptamine flash...
...Though this is just my personal opinion...actually if you listen to what DMT using shamans have been saying all along it perfectly coincides with my conclusions...
Though nobody had to tell me DMT gives you access to death, after I inhaled 200mgs in a single breath, there was no way to deny where I was, I knew it was death, and I also knew I had been there several times before...
...here's the thing though, it only gives you access to the bardo, to this place that's after death, but before reincarnation or eternal paradise or damnation as the monotheistic faiths believe, or what ever happens, you never see what lays beyond the bardo, your pulled back into your physical body before you can go any further, so it doesn't confirm anything except that conscious existance continues after the physical body dies...
I'll stop, I'm getting into some pretty subjective interpretations here, which are just my opinions.
Any way, keep exploring, but keep your head, be sure to be acting responsible and with respect, and try to get all that you can from your journeys, good luck!
