If u look up what dmt supposed do to ur brain. I had an instance were my sight couldn't focus rapid eye movement the picture next to my sight that was in my peripheral could make out. But in front of me it was like I was going blind my brain couldn't focus. I kept having to close my eyes and open them like snap shots it scared me cause my brain wasn't able to process any stimuli. I feel burnt.
 
Hysteric blindness is a known thing. So is visual migraine. This latter neurological condition/phenomenon, ime, entails a disappearance of the central visual field. This begins as a small, jagged area of iridescent shimmering in the centre of my field of vision. The shimmering procedes to grow outwards as a border around a central area of nothingness. My peripheral vision remains intact; my usual course of action if this starts happening is to lie down and relax and wait for it to run its course. Fortunately this occurs quite rarely for me, less than once a year but sometimes in bouts. It must be six months since the last time it happened.

Does this sound familiar to you? What are your stress levels like? You seem somewhat anxious these days. If an unusual phenomenon occurs, just relax and observe it. You cannot afford to get into a panic if bizarre phenomena occur while using DMT! That, and other high weirdness, is very much part of the deal.

If the visual changes persist after the DMT effects have worn off it would be wise to seek medical advice from an optician or an ophthalmologist.
 
Here's a nice video about these visual migraines .. I get them too from time to time, seemingly stress related.

I don't get the headaches, very luckily, but do feel a bit wiped out for a few hours after.


I can't find the video I was really looking for that shows how the expanding C shape maps to a region of the visual cortex that was cone shaped, with the crescent expanding as activity spreads from the narrow end to the wide end of this cone of neurons.
It's really interesting when it happens, to me , anyway :)
 
timmyt,

When things get weird among spice users I always recommend taking a break from use.

Just putting it down for some long-term integration. And really leaning into the mundane. Just every day activities and obligations. Take care of yourself, meditate, journal.

If your symptoms do not resolve quickly or if they suddenly become worse seek professional help immediately would be my recommendation.

I hope you get some relief soon.
