    The idea of a breakthrough experience is interesting to me. I’ve heard it described that fear and anxiety increase with heavier trips until you get to the point of a breakthrough, then it’s just all gone. Does this match your experience? Have you had any near-breakthrough experiences that were difficult due to anxiety or fear?

    I am interested in psilocybin and lsd, haven’t gotten to try them though. Never thought to try dmt.

      If you can get ahold of dmt in a vape cartridge, it’s the most beginner friendly of the three. The crazy stories you hear are all from higher doses. With a vape cart you can start small and work your way up if you like it.

    I felt like I was riding in an on rails open top vehicle through a like, society made up out of pulsating fractals. I remember going under an arch, and on top of the arch were beings also made of light and pulsating fractals, and they looked at me and spoke and fractals spilled out of their mouths.

    After I got through the arch, I heard this sound like… a torn speaker driver crackling as it plays, and the sound got louder until it was like a stampede of Buffalo engulfing everything that is. I felt my eyes open as if they were always closed, and around me I saw sand in all directions. I became scared. I remember thinking, what if I can’t come back from here? And suddenly it was like I was sucked backwards through reality and deposited back into my body.

    My friend who was with me and also under the influence said he saw arrows embossed on my skin pointing up towards my head, and then I became invisible for a moment, completely unseen. As quickly as I left, I returned. And we had an interesting conversation after.

        Seems like a lot of people go pretty hard with dmt when they first get ahold of it. I used to be the same (multiple times a day) and now it’s just light a light trip once or twice a month. The heavier experiences have their place, I’ve just found the light to moderate trips more enjoyable.

          I’m with you on the light trips being more enjoyable. I’ve only done it probably a dozen times in as many years, but this time I had some friends that wanted to try it so we made a lot, I’m having a way better time with low doses. Not as overwhelming.

            Vape carts are so good for sharing with friends. It gets rid of most of the technique issues. I only say most because it takes some convincing for people to believe you really do need to hold it in for a bit, unlike with a thc cart.
