DMT experience is pretty much a totally individual experience, one cannot easily smoke it just to have good time with friends (even though smoking it in a joint gives an nice feeling)
One would probably think that there are roughly 2 types of people who take what the mainstream calls "drugs"
1) those who just wanna get high and get fucked. These are the people who will go after all sorts of stimulants, weed for the sake of it and low doses of lsd or mushrooms. If they ever get too much of lsd or mushies they will simply consider that they got "too much fuuuucked", and "shite, that was horrible". These people just project the standard consumerist mentality. Gimme drugs, I give you money and then evaluate if I got enough bang for my money.
2) The other type of people are on the antipole and consider "drugs" as useful and powerful tools. They tend to "produce" the drugs they consume; whether it is some fungus, or some cactus, or some extracted and purified substance, or even weed. They tend to use "drugs" wisely, approach them safely and tend to ascribe a sacramental quality to them.
Well, the first category are the one's who drive the consensus viewpoint that media and governments hold for drugs. That is one reason why we mostly hear about their type of drugs being abused from the mainstream media. These type of people would never really try something like dmt, they would most likely hate it from the first puff. It is simply beyond their scopes or expectations of "drug" use.
The second one's are minority (or a minority of a minority if you may). And yet, for most of them lsd, fungi and cacti are sufficient for their purposes. In the last years "ayahuasca" has gained some popularity but not all love it. And with dmt, well... it can also scares the shit out of many well trained psychonauts. SWIM's FOAF's friends love and respect psychedelics but they are afraid to go close to dmt. SWIM's FOAF on the other side smokes it in his lunchbreak...(well, not quite, hahaha)
