I found that for me I need a sitter due to the way my brain works. its really helpful for me and keeps my fear and anxiety down if I have a sitter that knows what is going on to be able to help guide me through dark places. each time I have done things alone I have ended up dealing with a lot of fear, but when I had someone around that always helped guide me through the fear to the other side. so it seems to me that its not needed for everyone, it just depends on how your brain works
 
someone to be able to pass the pipe to helps. I know I'm a minority view, but nothing is better than loading up a piece and having two people enter hyperspace and have both of you just ramble to one another about the annihilation you both went through. Summer nights oh man. Wonderful wonderful times.
 
For vaporized DMT I have never found a sitter useful or helpful...Actually I have found a sitter to hamper my ability to let go completely. A cough, moving around, or other random noises can rip me from hyperspace and really mess with my experience.

Also, you're only going to be out for 5 or so minutes. To me, there is little they can do for you unless you are one of the few that likes walking around during a breakthrough (never seen it only heard about it).

A breakthrough, or most importantly total ego loss is such a personal thing, I don't even like having my wife in the same room as me when I launch.
 
Sister has never had a sitter, and nothing bad has happened so far. Except the time she forgot to put the pipe down and burned her fingers on it.

Like acolon suggests, it is an intensely personal experience. The last thing Sister would want is to come to with someone staring at her. She is usually pretty disoriented coming back . . .
 
its hard without a sitter we are in the same boat. I was told to be a rock in another thread of mine when i was struggling. I know the feeling its justr overcoming
 
It takes practice to journey alone .
I rarely do it with anyone
But myself . You can learn to manage it by yourself
It takes a lot of strength sometimes. Solo is good practice .
A great way to get to know yourself on a deep level.
 
SWIM would never want a sitter, or someone else in the room. Sometimes she needs a good half-hour to recover before being able to deal with another person.
 
So far all of Isis's experiences have been a mutual lift with his girlfriend so technically i have never had a sitter. The point about being ripped from hyperspace by outside sources is a good point and isis is considering a solo trip soon.

I have already posted a thread about this but i have to ask; what is with my lack of fear? have i just not experience what causes anxiety/fear in other fellow travelers? again this is not meant to impress, just a curiosity.
 
I'm going to join the minority voice... (edited...apparently I'm not really in the minority voice in this thread!)

For me I don't like doing DMT with ANYONE around me. DMT is a very personal experience.

With that said. I made sure my wife was by my side when I first tried the extract...and a few other times. Once I knew it was safe (aka real) I only like to do it alone.

My advice...have a sitter the first few times. Get the feel of the land and then you will know if you need one or not after that.

Peace

I am older have done psychedelics a lot in the past. I hadnt for over 12 years when i tried DMT and the reason i got there was from near death experiences and others. its scary for me by myself extracting on my day off and doing it the first time by myself. I had never met anyone who had done it. This is possibly where my fear came from.

OTOH I remember when I was twenty we had smoked in my friends van and i was going to light incense and shook the gonesh pack for the last stick and a little dot fell in my hand. I asked my buddy jim wtf is this?

He said "OH damn thats some kick ass microdot from chicago music festival. eat it"

"cool" I popped in my mouth and didnt think twice. set, setting, its all relative to the individual.

I will say i panicked on 50mg with little dmt experience because of out of body experience i have never felt like DMT makes me feel.
 
swim is so glad you all are here ! thank you for responding.Swim is still waiting for next try.going to do it proper this time ,got mg scales on way,getting better smoking device.dont want to waste any of this.as Swim sits and writes this im feeling beautiful effects of just very little placed in between some mids.this tiny amount is so powerful,swim knows he either wasted alot on two previous attempts or its all in the screens and brillo in pipe he only used for spice.
 
I'd have to recommend against using it with weed. Weed+DMT always seems to be more "dark" in nature, also I don't get much CEVs, but some HELLISHLY AWESOME OEVs. Lots of dark greens/blues/reds as well.... but thats just me...

Also, I never smoke with someone around who isn't themselves partaking, not necessarily at the same time, but if they see me in hyperspace, I want to see them as well. :)
