Unsettling water -- Will he be able to?

Migrated topic.

PerPLexED

Rising Star
PerPLexED has trouble getting into good scenarios for psychedelics. He has had a few overthetop experiences which shook him to his core, so it is a bit difficult for him to try it again. He has been having a showdown with Sally for the past 2 weeks, but still remains out of that realm. He is afraid his spice is going to come and go before he has a good time to do it. How does one know when its a good time to go into hyperspace through Sally or Dimitri? Also, PerPLexED is mostly alone, would he be safe doing this alone? He has in the past, and knows he can control himself, but after reading various trip reports about others running the streets with knives and breaking into neighbors houses gives him anxiety.
Any advice is much appreciated so PerPLExED can report his trips back to the nexus.
 
I'll tell you what everyone else will tell you. Start with small doses, and see how you react.

Work your ass off on Friday. Finish everything you could ever need to do over the weekends. Do the same most of Saturday so you have absolutely nothing left to do. Sitting down on your bed, Saturday evening, knowing everything is fine and you are on task is an extremely relaxing feeling on its own. Meditate for a bit, lay down and think about life before you blast off.
 
Hi PerPlexED,

well when i take psychedelics i make sure that i'm not tired. An try to relax as much as you can saying that everything will be fine, whithout losing the respect for the sacrament...you must approach it with a positive vibe, especially when your the anxious kind of person. And be honest to yourself when you find out maybe these substances are not good for you. I personally don't think it's the right thing to do by yourself when you have to many issues...a guide would be a great thing,someone with whom you feel comfortable.
I wish you good luck
 
fireup got it pretty good, dont have any unfinished business, do on a quiet day, start with small doses.

personally i've never seen anybody walk after having smoked spice, people always just lay down or roll around in bed at most.. but its always good to be prudent!

SWIM didnt have good experience with sally, its something that really scares you.. feels to SWIM smoking salvia is not the best way.. He finds dmt much more pleasant (not the best word to describe it, but...) , even in the strongest weirdest trips... But maybe thats just him.

if theres anything else I can think of I post later.. good luck :)
 
When smoking salvia, make sure that you do it in the most quite and dark place possible, get extra comfortable and lay back as it hits. That way you have no external distractions to hold you here and get you too confused. The overlap between 2 realities at once can really confuse and scare me. You want to forget about the body and all external reality..

With DMT it can be more interactive and welcoming of external stimuli, but still a good mellow setting and clear mind is the way to go..

THat said, I alwasy have throughts racing through my mind whenever I take wither of them, no matter te situation..hard not to when I know all to well what I am about to do! Once you take that first hit though there is no going back and I just accept it and go!
 
Just to add my mental prep angle on fireup's advice: [after getting shit done] I've had good results with thinking about the past week's events, the recent day and being completed with duties, and then I consider some muck about activity for the next day and what the following week may bring. Kind of just run my brain over the close past, present, future so the thoughts aren't all boxed up and ready to burst when I crescendo. Sometimes it takes a good while for me to prepare like this, but by the time I've thought it all out, my brain's clear and ready to devote my attention on the spice. If I've still got some general anxiety, I'll have a few sips of water (works for me). I smile as I rip.
 
This is not meant as a disagreement with anyone, for I go through the same process (i.e self examination, and cycles of low -> high doses) every time, but I have noticed that for myself, it is actually better to....first of all take a high dose (even though I often chicken out and dont), and also to not contemplate about it too much before doing it. If I think a lot about what I am about to go through in a psychedelic journey, that my mind often conjures up excuses to not do it (like "Im feel good about life for now, there's no need to do it" etc.).
Again, I dont mean this in an arugmentative sense, just wanted to present another perspective.
But blessings for your journeys perplexed.
 
Thanks all. Recently PerPLexED had a salvia experience he says:
"Got a new piece and tried it out. has a rather small bowl, so couldnt pack it as much as i normally do, so i just went with that. hit it , put it down, went back to bed, closed my eyes and listened to music. All of a sudden, a familiar feeling came about me. I started smiling. It was a low dose, so i didn't go very far, but wow, did it make me feel comfortable. Didn't get too much salvia sweats, but i have lost much of my pre-flight anxiety. I want to have a full blown salvia experience with entitys and such, but im not even sure how to achieve that..getting a plant soon so hopefully quidding will be able to better dose for that."
 
i can relate very much to what you say deepsun. SWIM was planning on breaking trough yesterday,but after he smoked an initial pre-dose the missing pieces of his first breakthrough flashed trough his mind (first one was not so pleasant) and he actually freaked out and couldn't find the courage to hit hyperspace. So i could agree that too much thinking about what's gonna happen can make things tricky. SWIM thinks he knows why the first breakthrough went 'wrong':when he felt it coming he got scared and didn't let go...
