What is a DMT breakthrough like?

So I've been extremely interested in DMT for a few years now. Back when Sheep was up I ordered a really small amount of it from a vendor I can't recall the name of, and me and my homie loaded it up between 2 layers of sour in a bowl. Long story short we passed it back and forth twice and after we each took a second hit he handed it to me and my head started vibrating kinda and I was looking straight forward and the best way I can explain it is I felt like I was on a rollercoaster right when everybody counting down got to 1. I felt like I was about to take off right through the wall. All I said was "Nah" and he looked at it and decided not to either. Recently I told another friend about it and every day since he calls me telling me he has cash he's ready to put up. I'm definitely thinking about going through with it but I just wanted to ask you guys what the breakthrough is like first. Did any of you guys think it was TOO intense? There may be a better place to post this but to be honest I don't care because I like you guys the best and I trust more of your opinions than I should.

I went over to my friend's house to watch wes anderson films. He mentions he has some DMT. We decide to give it a go. I had read about breakthroughs and was going through a rough time emotionally so I was super excited to try it.

My friend boils up a beverage containing the MOAI. I drink it. Tastes like death. For a while my body and conscious just felt heavier and heavier. Then I ate the capsule containing the DMT. An hour passes and I feel heavier, but still not tripping. My friend hands me the bong with some more DMT in it and I rip it. My first thought was to set the bong down as quickly as possible because I could feel myself withdrawing. Quickly.

I lay there for a moment (moaning I think). I was starting to feel euphoric. Then the nausea hit. My friend had told me before I drank the beverage not to fight the urge to vomit. It is inevitable and you will ruin the trip resisting the urge. So I stand up and by some miracle make it to the bathroom where I vomit so hard at one point I thought I had shit my pants. After the vomiting subsides I slump to the side of the comode and lean against the wall. This is the moment I rocketed to another dimension. Checked out. Broke on through to the other side.

It was there that I met god. Or the super celestial sentience.. or whatever it was I have bever felt so connected to anything and everything all at once. As far as visuals I was blinded by shooting colors. It was spectacular.

And so I asked god many questions. Why are we here? Why do we hurt each other? What happens when we die? What is our purpose? Why did my love leave me?

The answer was the always the same.

"Just be."

I felt as if I had tasted nirvana. I let go of any anxieties I had about past present or future. I embraced the connectivity that exists between myself and every conscience being on this earth. That when I am good to others I am good to myself. That when anyone hurts or suffers injustice we all do. That life is a fleeting temporary experience and all that matters is to be happy and put positive energy out into the world always.

And most importantly I learned that "god" (or whatever you call it because it is surely open to interpretation) is indifferent. He doesn't interfere in our lives he only observes, silently watching our human experience.. everything we will ever need to overcome anything is within us. Don't look to the sky, look into yourself. Enjoy love when it graces you with its presence, but if it leaves you do not mourn. Remember you are whole. Remember everything is within you.

My friend put on some great music and I cried the happiest of tears as I descended back to "reality".

I have not worried or angered over anything since this experience. My soul is serenaded. I am zen. I am at peace.

The come down was not bad, aside from a headache and a general feeling of weakness for a few hours. The dream i had after going to bed that night was similar but not as intense. It was like a deep meditation.

I should mention though that ever since my DMT trip I have had several extremely lucid dreams. They are emotionally overwhelming a lot of the time but I enjoy them regardless as they are usually very interesting and enlightening experiences.

If you do decide to ingest DMT via ayahuasca method do a little reading up because there are certain foods you should avoid for a day or so (certain digestive enzymes are temporarily destrojuyed and some foods are likely to upset your stomache should you eat them).

PM me if you have any questions. I am more than happy to share this experience as it significantly changed my life for the better.

IMO it was way too intense until I broke through, then just peace and love

My 1st breakthrough was awe inspiring.I saw angels and spirits telling me there was another plain.I also have had very intense experiences.I once went through a wormhole coming out on a landscape like a Dr Suess book.It can be truly awe inspiring to extremely overwhelming.Just be prepared.

DMT is great. One person at a time. Get some good instrumental trippy/relaxing song. I like Madness by Muse (instrumetental).

If you're going to do the sandwich method with weed bowls then try using two, and hit one after the other. Try to hold the second hit in as long as you can. Don't be a pussy and choke.

Story time of my first DMT break through. I feel the room shaking and I'm reminding myself to stay calm and that this is just a trip. I get this voice in my head, "Don't fight it. You can keep your eyes open or closed, but you're coming with us regardless". That kind of made me nervous. So I kept my eyes closed.

Then all of a sudden I'm being sucked through a portal going into outer space. I look around as I'm flying at light speed and I see all these geometric patterns around me. Then I arrive at my destination. It was a palace, the whole thing was glowing gold, but I understood it to be a restaurant/bar. I awkwardly walk in and look at the bar and bartender. It was a glowing silhouette of a human, and he was casually cleaning a glass.

I saw a group of glowing silhouettes drinking and calling me over to their table. They were very excited to see me, and said things like, "What took you so long to visit us". There were probably 4-6 of them. They start explaining to me how in this world everything is made from light because it is an infinite source of energy that can be manipulated to create things such as buildings.

Then, all of a sudden, they tell me, "You have to leave". "But why", I cry out. "It's not safe, he replied". He touched me, and I got a vision of a black person reaching at me (very scary), and I snapped out of my trip and threw a weak punch at my friend who was reaching to rescue the bowl about to drop out of my hand. My friend is not black, but it might have been a shadow effect.

tldr: I've seen some shit on DMT.

it doesn't sound like you experienced a breakthrough but did get close. I have found that when I am at the stage that you are at, taking one more fat rip and holding it will put me over the edge. also, when you fight it, it's more difficult to break though. just close your eyes and relax, as much as you can. the comeup is certainly scary. I have done my fair share of the drug, and it is still scary. the ride to hyperspace is a turbulent one. but once the comeup is over, and you've made it to wherever you're going, it's no longer scary. in fact it's pretty much the polar opposite, complete serenity.

it is very intense. not in a negative way though, just intense. I know its super cliche to say, but a breakthrough on DMT is literally indescribable. when I was younger, I got hit by a car and got a gnarly concussion. apparently came close to dying. for the longest time, I didn't really know how to describe that experience either, I still don't . but it was shockingly similar to a DMT breakthrough.

Just FYI - dried parsley is excellent to use for the top and bottom layers of your DMT sandwich, in the pipe/bong.

Also just a point; not everyone can breakthrough (from a smoked dose anyway). I know a few people including myself that regardless of how much is loaded into the pipe, how good the DMT is and with near perfect smoking technique, some people can still never reach the otherworldly plains, that others seem to experience. The experience can be intense of course, but nothing like walking around in another dimension.

I know people are going to immediately say that it was down to the quality of the DMT, but i can say without a shadow of a doubt that all the various batches were of excellent quality. Must have had about 10 different batches altogether and the vast majority of people were sent into hyperspace with it when having the correct dose.

As for me and the few people that cant; it gets to a point where you've upped the dose so much in the hope of breaking through, that all it makes you do is blackout for a short period. The doses got higher each time in small incriments, so its not just a case of smoking too much, as various different doses were used.

Death state (experienced once) - I floated past fucking Saturn man. Fucking Saturn with rings n shit.

Dream state (every other time) - my friends turned into anime characters, a throw rug talked to me and colours n fractals were more vivid.

Done dmt like atleast 8 times. It can be fun. It can also feel like you're getting your soul sucked out thru yo dick.

I'd love to read about some dmt experiences. Is there a sub where people write about them?


[2 Points] Unlucky3some:

I took it and fell asleep to talk to my subconscious. Started by losing feeling in my body starting from tips of limbs working inward accompanied by the odd and intense feeling that you are switching from 1st person perspective (in your body) to a 3rd person (outer body experience). I switched back and fourth between the two perspectives very rapidly and it felt a lot like ego death or a major existential crisis. I was screaming "fuck its here" and i could hear it both inside my head and outside... That was jarring at the time, but very cool once it was over. Then all of the sudden you're filled with empathy and and the geometric patterns where communicating that it was all necessary for my trip. Hope that helps

Edit: if you plan on taking it and going to sleep I suggest you sit in a chair with your feet planted on the ground. This makes ascending much smoother and more comfortable.

Can DMT change your life like a good LSD trip?


[2 Points] DMTchangedmylife:

Hello there, 2nd post. I joined reddit to reply to a question just like this. I'm just going to paste a chunk from that post because I'm a little crunched on time but wanted to reply to you question.

I started doing DMT for the pretty colors using the sandwich method in a bong. Then I bought a valcano, still doing it with a few friends (even if they didn't trip or didn't like my demeanor while under the influence ) in the room always looking to just experience more pretty colors. Then I made a DMT machine out of a Hennsey nipper. This is when things changed from pretty colors to serious fucking shit. I got hyper-slapped for trying use DMT as an escape from my issues that I saw what DMT could offer. I was confronted head on with my biggest issues by a beautiful woman made entirely of energy after a brief moment of terror that lasted an eternity. She was very aware the she didn't have much time to deliver her message and used the least words possible while making sure her message was drilled home. "Have you ever thought you wanted to do something, and then later wished you didn't? Don't you think you should be doing something you love, something you've always wanted to do?". At that point I became away of the island between my living room and kitchen. When she noticed me notice I was coming back to reality she stopped speaking, smiled, and faded away into the familiar pretty colors I was used to seeing. Only this time I could hear time starting back up again.

I tell people know it's a drug, know it will end, and be open to anything you might receive. Safe travels friend.

kind of a side question here - what's the best ROA to ensure a breakthrough? i had a friend send me some a few years ago but used someone's glass weed pipe to do it. didn't work obviously. since then i've used IV heroin and that ROA doesn't scare me. how does that work?


[1 Points] LedLevee:

What's a guy to do when he can't smoke a joint/cig for the life of him? Apparently it's like smoking burnt plastic so... not easy eh? I read about snorting, but I heard it's the most painful shit known to man.

MAOI, I dunno. Then I need to order even more shit and I'm a bit afraid of all those foods you can't eat. Maybe I just keep practicing with hash?


[1 Points] JaredIsAmped:

Holy fuck I've never even hallucinated off of anything, next time I get dmt I'm doing a shit ton of it.


[1 Points] xSwrvs:

My first experience was very nice but I wouldn't say I broke through, my walls started waving like a flag in the wind and it was a very slow and pleasurable experience starting out with those deep frantic thought like an LSD trip


[1 Points] The_Madhouse:

if your having these aprehensions I would suggest waiting. Dmt isn't a party drug and should be only used when ready. If your this nervous going into it there's a chance you'll freak yourself out. Dmt can radically change you and your beliefs from just one trip. For me it's a purely spiritual and life changing experience. If it's something you believe your ready for than I say go for it. Dmt has changed my life for the better and I hope everyone gets to try it when they are ready. Just make sure it's something your ready for and the intensity won't matter. As everyone said the brief come up is a little uncomfortable but once your in hyperspace it's nothin but good times


[1 Points] HappySodomy:

Tried DMT, not a break though but I had awesome CEVs. My mind was no where near mind fucked, very clearheaded. Is this normal for a low dose?
