Unfounded fear for DMT?

[DoingKermit]

......DMT was available durring the day many years back when i was a teen ..

[But with LSD being leagle at the time] .. Most chose an LSD experiance ..

But...Because of warnings of how intense DMT could be..at that time DMT never became popular or even talked about much........

Im re quoting my post above that if ..GOOD PURE LSD.. were available today as it was back in the 60s and 70s ..Made by chemists like ..Nick Sand...Owsley.and others of the time..
I think that [many]..[but not all] who trip on DMT today would choose LSD as an alternate route..
DMT was available WAY back then.. but never became popular because because of its reputation as being too intense...
Im shure there were people back then who vaped or even injected DMT but they were a minority in the drug culture of my youth...
The LSD experiance does use normal reality as a model .but offers windows of perception where the experianced tripper can access a DMT like experiance..
A similar experiance can happen in high quality lucid dreams or OBEs..
Its true that DMT is in a class of its own!.. as ..[if one breaks through]..it can take one to places that doesnt look anything like normal reality .and thats part of the reason it lures me ..a desire to go farther and explore new worlds...

Hi stareway6!

I think some of what you say has to do with nostalgia.

Like when people say, "acid will never be as good as it used to be". My friend read an article (i'll ask him if he can send it to me) about scientists who fed some old acid heads the original LSD-25 that they had taken years ago. The subjects said the same thing... "not the same"... when actually, it was the exact same acid they had!

My point is - these experiences are extremely subjective. They probably still make really good acid these days... but since it is during a different time, it may not SEEM the same. I feel like nostalgia plays a part.

Don't want to derail this thread... Just some food for thought

I dont think LSD can get better than pure LSD 25 blotter...
Also the origional orange sunshine barrels from the 60s and 70s were so potent and colorfull in effect that ...
For me.. it not nostalgia...I have more than 200 acid trips under my belt and i know good acid from acid substitutes they sell now a days..atleast in the USA..not shure how pure acid circulating in Europe is?
I wish Nick Sand was reading these posts he could explain the diference of f dirty cheaply made acid... and real LSD.....
Nick is the first pioneer who discovered that DMT could be smoked !
Real LSD takes more than a few bottels of chemicles easily bought from your local hardware store..
To make LSD 25 one needs pretty advanced expensive equipment and good knowlege of the molecule...
In my opoinion..The acid was better then and so was the music!
cheers!
