I'm male, in my late 20s, and after several years of curiosity and research I finally came into contact with freebase DMT. I first became interested in DMT while in undergraduate school after reading Strassman's "The Spirit Molecule". It was this book that really sparked my interest in delving into psychedelics. I am an educated man, will be finishing graduate school this year, and found it extremely interesting that drug trials were being done on human subjects with such a powerful psychedelic. I remember writing a short essay in undergrad about DMT and being blown away by the similarities in trip reports from subjects who are clearly psychologically disparate from each other. How could this be possible?
When a young boy in Iran has a visionary dream where he believes he meets god... it is always assumed to be Allah.
The same dream in the United States... usually leads to visions of Jesus Christ.
However, DMT seems to have a generally ubiquitous response throughout humanity. Why?
I was so intrigued and curious as to why such psychologically different individuals seem to experience such similar events while under the influence of DMT. My background is in medicine, so my obvious approach at viewing DMT from the outside was one that focused on Neuropharmacology. At this point, I began my journey into psychedelics. I researched in my free time and started taking psychedelics with my girlfriend, now wife. We grew our own mushrooms and learned from experience how amazingly powerful and therapeutic the tryptamine 4-ho-dmt can be in the right setting. Along the way, my wife and I explored 2c-e, 2c-b, LSD, and AMT. There was always this part of me that was curious, yet freakishly scared and respectful of pure n,n-DMT.
Fast forward 4 years (last month) and through some interesting circumstances that I could never speak of on a public forum, I came into pure, synthesized, n,n-DMT. I made all my preparations for a perfect set and setting... loaded 30mg into my vaporizer and took 3 large hits, holding them for 15 seconds. Nothing could have prepared me for what happened, NOTHING. No amount of research or trip report reading could have prepared me. My head dropped backwards, I was in a trance, I felt paralyzed, I could do nothing but close my eyes and immerse myself into the experience. I was zooming out of my body through a tunnel of fractal light that I've never seen, colors and shapes I've never experienced, and these presences around me. As soon as I felt myself become nervous, I was comforted by a female presence that I could only describe as mother earth. In the moment, I was 100% certain these were not projection of my own unique psychology. How could this be?!?! I felt as if my entire body was engulfed by this womanly figure... and she was communicating with others in a language I didn't know but they clearly did. As I came to after a few minutes, I realized I had this gigantic grin on my face and I just kept saying out loud, "what the fuck, oh my god, this cannot be for real, how is this possible?" My wife smoked our DMT after me and came out of the experience shaking and broke down into tears. She had complete ego dissolution and the first thing she said to me after was, "I'm not afraid to die anymore". 30mg of pure white powder rocked us both and now here I am, more curious than I was before!
This week I did my first STB extraction of MHRB, thanks to all of you on this forum for providing such wonderful tek's. I don't know what will come of my future trips but I realize there is much much much more to explore. My next project is to make some changa blends to extend the experience.
That is my story! Have a great holiday everyone!
