what thoughts do you have before vaping?

[aaron12321]

my usual thoughts are just focused on calming my breathing , but then when i get that first hit the DMT just relaxes me and then its "more , more more " before i blast off .
my anxiety seems so petty after a trip

Thoughts before,
First base: "please be gentle"
Following bases "SMOALK MOAR!!!"

 

[Electric Kool-Aid]

Edit: what do I think about before?
"awesome!!" Lock door, turn on lava lamp and xmas lights. Melting white xtals. Lay back get comfortable. Hands start to shake and get cold. Start to light. Back out of a major hit for fear of a loop or scream session. Enjoy mild visuals and the sounds. Thank the spice for its kindness.

what thoughts do you have before vaping?

Lots of them.
Is the door locked? all phones off? need to pee? Background or headphone music properly set up? Lighter working properly? Got a blanket ready? Have I meditated enough to iron out any stress?
Will it be a big one? a nice one? terrifying one? oh shut the f... up and hit it! ( last item my thoughts to myself, ie. not directed at you)

"Looks like a good amount, here we go!"

 

[Sky Motion]

"Ugh why do I want to do this"

To be honest..half the time my thoughts are centered around how this is going to only last like 2 minutes(the peak) and I wish I was in a place where I was not wasting that experience with "sober" thoughts that bleed through into such a short peak and distracting me. I think this is part of why I started to really vibe alot more with oral DMT..by the time I am peaking with ayahuasca all those everyday thought patterns are behind me.

I always disliked how what I am thinking before I inhale that cloud of tryptamines amplifies as it comes on and can dominate the experience at times.

I get anxious about it and overthink everything, but as soon as I pick up my pipe my mind goes blank and a calmness comes over me and I just wait for the show to start.

totally focused on my rapid heartbeat

 

[Guyomech]

Breathing, heartbeat.... And a fast- paced visual montage of a bunch of my peak experiences. Then I try to blink, clear my visual palette. Everyday chatter very quiet in the background, easy to dismiss. Look for the quiet center. Breathe.

My usual mantra is "Hi Universe, please be gentle, I'm still learning"

 

[acacian]

"alright mate, lets go into this with love, surrender and concentration. do not fear but embrace"

 

[3rdI]

"CHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGE"

No Thought, only Motion.

 

[Dante]

"Shut up!" to my inner voice

 

[Purges]

All / most of the above :lol:

No Thought, only Motion.

I have the complete opposite of this. I am always very still before vaping and my mind is racing with thoughts... primarily things like "oh shit oh shit oh shit" and "right... go for it, just do it before you over think it and lose your nerve". I have massive pre-flight anxiety most of the time because I know I am launching myself into potentially something terrifying. Although I get a lot from the terrifying experiences they are extremely intense and they provoke an instinctual fear of inflicting that on myself... takes me real willpower (or more often, for me, a reasonable dose of alcohol) to overcome this.

"Exhale.....Here I go!---no I'm not ready........okay here--, no Deep exhale.....Now"

 

[The Observer]

After reading all these responses, I am a bit relieved to hear that many other travelers have many of the same anxieties and apprehensions that I have as a, still newbie spicer.

All these comments have allowed me to feel the love and fear and just do it anyway.

Next stop, other dimensions!

Thank you all.
