Physical effect - What happens to my body?

[xotix]

Hi,

I never did DMT, I'm only curious about it. I started reading the book "Spirit Molecule". The author, who did a clinical study about DMT, was writing about high blood pressure and a fast heart beat. At one candidate, he was very scared about the high blood pressure. Somehow, I'm a bit scared when it comes to body effects, thats the main reason, I don't take a lot of drugs. (It happens though )

So, before doing some DMT, I really need to get confident with myself about this topic. In general, not only related to DMT, but I don't want to talk about my fears but rather talk about the body effects you experienced. E.g. a lot of people say, never stand up, because you could get "unconscious".

So tell me about your experiences etc.

Well, chemically, I'm not sure what happens. SWIM did it a few years ago with his g/f and sister and her b/f. They were taking sub-breakthrough amounts, and basically were just taking turns tripping out.

When taking sub-breakthrough amounts, the body feeling is very similar to LSD/Mushrooms. Probably halfway between the two actually. And the visuals are very similar to both as well. There's nothing to fear, and SWIM would suggest taking small doses to familiarize with the feelings and rhythms of the buzz before going deeper, because as with any psychedelic, confidence in what you're doing plays a big part in having a good time.

The thing with dmt is, if you focus too much (in a neg way) on the physical effects it will hinder your ability to let go and enjoy the ride. Learning to let go of your expectations of how your body is suppose to feel is a good lesson to be learned.

I don't have any idea (so I can't suppose) how the bodyloads will be. Just wondering, you read a lot about the trippy mind thing but not that much about the body. Was just curious and it's nice to know if you really should not try to stand up because you circulation is waek.

Thanks for the answers.

As far as standing, it is highly recommend that you dont attempt such things. I personally find that any kind of movement feels uncomfortable, and with larger doses I find it very difficult to perform any kind of physical actions. Best bet is to plan for an experience where you just lay there and observe. I will attempt to breakdown the various "common" physical effects and if anyone disagrees with me I welcome their feedback. This is from my own experiences.

5mg - 10mg:

Light to moderate body load. Gravity feels stronger. Sometimes the effects are isolated to only a certain part of the body, face, arms, legs ect. Laying feels best.

11mg - 15mg:

Body load is substantially increased. Body feels heavy. Strange sensations that feel similar to feeling physically numb are more apparent now than with lower doses. Some vibrational feelings sometimes. Can move around with ease, although feels as though I shouldn't, feels strange to wave arms about. Smaller movements, like bending fingers, sometimes feels normal sometimes trippy.

16mg - 20mg:

Body load MUCH stronger (if you are conscious of it). Often times (for me) I am achieving breakthrough at this point and am not even aware of my body at all. If I have not broken through, the body often feels like every cell is vibrating at a high frequency. Attempting physical movement seems unimportant. Standing up would be very difficult, walking even more so. Balance is off, and noticed if you sit up during peak.

21mg - 25mg:

If not broken through body load is so strong that I am not even sure if I am feeling my body or something else. Getting up and walking around is the LAST thing on my mind. Physical sensations can range anywhere from feeling as if entities are touching you, poking you, caressing you, swimming inside you/and outside you ect. List could go on and on. If eyes are open, your surroundings most likely wont even look like the surroundings actually around you.

26mg and up:

WOW

I've done both, but by-far enjoy standing/moving on high doses. Operating electronic devices is near impossible, but i have total even better control of movement. The energy felt on high doses (if you stay in your body) is nothing short of extraordinary. I remember fearing the body load at first but quickly realized the human body was designed to do just this. It is all healing, it really is.

That being said, humans are lazy sheltered creatures with many addictions. If you have health issues you need to take care of them first.

GL on whatever you decide.

Thanks for the nices answers. OH, no, I don't have any health issues. Currently, I just want to wait, I know some people who are experimenting with it, so I'd be in good hands if I want to try it. Was only curious about the bodyload etc. And of course, If I'd have any health issues, I'd first recover.
