After running an extraction on MHRB, I finally got some spice and had some friends over. However, most of the spice was too dirty and I had not had time to re-crystalize. As a compromise, I had used some weed and heptane to scrub out my glass-ware which had spice residue on it, then let the heptane evaporate off, so I had some weed-changa. I thought that would be a nice introduction to the DMT feel.
I had no idea how strong the resulting experience would be. Also, I had done a couple bumps of k shortly before, so that likely colored the experience. I used a normal glass pipe and lighter, packed a bowl, and took a hit. I tried to hold it in as long as possible. My lungs notice the difference immediately, and I had to stop myself from coughing the smoke out right away. After about 15 second, I exhaled and surprisingly little smoke came out of my mouth, since I felt like I'd taken a big toke. I noticed what I assume is the distinctive dmt-flavor/smell on exhale.
I felt high but not much more. My vision seems like it was getting a little screwed up, kind of a cross-eyed feeling. After another 10 minutes, I took another hit, similar to the first, again blew out surprisingly little smoke. I'm used to using a water bong for weed, so am not used to a glass pipe and they may have added to the seeming harshness and my difficulty getting a big inhale, independent of the dmt.
About 5 minutes after the second hit, I noticed a complicated green pattern on a blanket was suddenly looking super cool and three dimentional. The visuals were sort of reminiscent of shrooming or other tryptamines, but somehow more pure. Usually, other tryptamines come with a serious inebriated sensation (shrooms often make me feel drunk and in kind of a stupor in addition to the psychedelic aspect). This was very clear-headed, though. Just clarity and cool open-eye visuals. I liked it.
Convesation flowed very well, I may have been wittier than usual and more open. After about an hour, I noticed I was hungry and decided to "whip up" something for myself and my vegan friends. I retired to the kitchen, selected various things out of the fridge, and decided on making a pasta. Over the next 45 minutes, I cooked like a Top Chef, amazing myself in the process. I had three burners going at once, made a salad, timed everything very well, seasoned everything very well, invented every dish from scratch, and it all turned out wonderful. What really stood out was the efficiency of my decision making. Every point I had to decide whether to do a, b or c as my next step, I would instantly make a decision and move on. It saved me a lot of time. I made a mistake or two, then figured out how to incorporate teh mistake into the dish so it all worked out. We had pasta with a carrot-tomatoe sauce topped with mushrooms and yellow squash, a salad, and polenta fried with a touch of brown sugar, some tofutti cream cheese, and roasted yellow peppers.
I have never read about DMT being a "smart" drug, but it definitely had that effect with me. I was quicker, more decisive, and more confident than I can ever recall being in the kitchen. Normally, cooking as many different things at once and trying to get them all to be done at the same time is very stressful for me and has me feeling very tired by the time I am done, but this was relatively effortless.
When we were done, we went outside and my wife was taking some pictures. I asked for the camera since we do not have enough pictures of her or our friends, and I started taking pictures and I did so with a very artistic mind-set. I think I got some amazing shots. I was thinking about lighting, angle, framing, mood, etc. (I think I had another hit or two after dinner and before taking the photos, and probably another couple bumps of ketamine.)
Every so often when I shut my eyes, I'd see very faint, closed-eye visuals of extreme intricacy and beauty, but these moments were brief. I'm very interested to see what the visuals are like on a stronger dose.
In the end, I'm not sure how much this experience owed to the ketamine or the weed, but I'm very familiar with both, so I think it was the dmt that largely created the flavor of this experience. I really loved it as a mild and trippy cognitive enhancer.
