On dmt and depression

[Bisy]

As some of you know, I've recently been through an extreme phase of using way too much spice. To the point where I've either been banned from hyperspace, or the receptors aren't responding to it anymore.

Obviously, the responsible thing to do is stop for a while, but I keep trying.

Every now and then I get a little bit of a trip, but not much, and it's strange and different.

But here's the interesting part....I'm kicking butt on life like never before. My home for years has been worthy of an episode of hoarders, falling apart, leaking in the rain, everything piling up for years. But I'm finally on it like you can't imagine. Everyone telling me good job man. I want whatever you're taking. It's beautiful now. An oasis. I rebuilt the porch. Made 20 or so trips to the dump, reclaimed a huge overgrown part of the yard and planted lawn, put cabinets and a floor in the kitchen, refinished some furniture, and I'm not even close to done. I'm fixing to put a roof on it.....

And I very strongly believe it's the spice that has changed my brain chemistry or something...

great to hear your life is going so well!
maybe there is nothing to learn right now. i would agree and say give it a break for a while. no point forcing it. there is always mushrooms, LSD, or any of the other many psychedelics to enjoy in the mean time.

"the block" is an interesting topic for me. i cant help but wonder if it is due to subtle differences in the way the person is consuming the DMT, a change in their diet or something along those lines, but at the same time usually the people reporting it are seasoned psychonauts, so it is unlikely they are not noticing those things.
hopefully i do not have to find out too much about it any time soon.

its great to hear how much it has helped you turn your life around. i would love to hear how you went about using it and if it was scheduled and consistent timings and doses etc.

the blockout is definitely a very curious thing. im still waiting to get a more solid opinion regarding some of my experiences, so that i can share them more accurately. because some sound impossibly crazy.

to answer your question regarding dosages and frequency, i guess you could compare it to a 5 year old that just found a pillowcase full of his favorite chocolate and ate it every way possible till he was sick and still kept eating it.

Consuming any psychedelic, doesn't necessarily have to be DMT is probably the single most best thing you can do for your central nervous system. I like to draw the comparison between DMT and physical exercise in the sense that, As good as aerobic exercise is for the cardiovascular system or resistance for the musculoskeletal system, drugs like 5-MeO-DMT and mescaline are to the central nervous system. Psychedelics are the stimulus which induce positive adaptive changes in the brain just like the two types of exercises mentioned earlier cause positive adaptations on the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems. It's the same situation just the stimulus is different.

Like with all good things in life including exercise, too much of a good thing can have adverse effects so I'd moderate the DMT usage. I'd like to make the recommendation of using DMT in conjunction with harmalas (both oral) once every 2 weeks or once a month to stave off depression.

Very nice to hear, Bisy!

What you could try to do is take smaller doses orally (with harmalas) so that your consciousness expands somewhat but you have more control over the experience and it's easier to focus on the lesson you are given.

It seems like the entities actively discourage people from relying on the DMT wisdom before you have taken in what you have been previously taught. It's something to respect, but in my opinion you can approach them if you feel prepared and respectful in your spirit and adjust the dosage and your mode of experimenting accordingly.

Taking a harmala heavy trip with just a pinch of DMT will hardly give you any hyperslap since it puts you into a meditative and receptive state.

I second the above

Seems people often reference getting blocked out. It seems the general consensus is to potentially take a break. Otherwise, as Tomtegubbe already stated, begin employing harmalas and see how it assists. I find work on harmalas alone rewarding as well. Been drinking pretty regularly rue tea.

I'm happy you've found direction and focus to accomplish important tasks. It's rewarding and uplifting. Keep it up.

One love

hahaha i love your analogy

DMT tolerance does not seem to be properly understood yet.
it seems to me that it is commonly accepted that we have a VERY short term tolerance, which basically means if we do not smoke enough, in one bowl, to break through then we will have to wait maybe up to an hour before attempting again. long term tolerance is a completely different story though. in general people do not experience it at all, but there are still plenty of reports of it so something is definitely happening.

tolerance in general can usually be overcome by taking a break with other drugs, so if it is in fact a tolerance issue then that will almost certainly fix it. the problem with DMT though is that it is so sensitive as far as administration goes. unless you are in a controlled environment using an IV to dose properly measured doses then it is unlikely you will get the same measurement every time.
tolerance has been tested in a controlled environment with IV, but i am yet to see anything completely convincing. nothing i have seen has replicated the typical use of psychonauts, but i am not claiming to be an expert on the subject and have by no means dug deep into the subject so would love to see input from others on this.

i dont think you need to be too worried yet, maybe a simple break will be all you need. dont be too greedy though, it sounds to me like DMT has given you a LOT. be grateful for what yu have.

i hope you get your passport back soon
