first dmt trip

Former Member

Hey guys, I am new to this site. While researching somethings on DMT I began to get a little nervous. Me and my boyfriend plan on tripping together within the next week or so. I have only done one other psychedelic before. That was 25i and it was a very unpleasant trip. I guess I'm just looking for some pointers and advice on what to expect and what to prepare for. Thanks!

Have someone else with you two when you take it, who won't be taking part. Someone you both trust wholeheartedly.

Erowid is a good source for base information. https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/dmt/

For personal experiences/info this forum is a good place https://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/showwiki.php?title=DMT

Hey there :wave:

Just thought I'd drop in TheSite's guide to DMT as well: http://www.thesite.org/drink-and-drugs/drugs-a-z/dmt-9971.html

Here's a snippet from the article you might find useful in terms of what to prepare for:

How long do the effects last for?

DMT hits you almost instantly, usually within 10*–60 seconds. If you smoke it, the trip lasts around 5–20 minutes. If you snort or drink it, the effects can last longer.

Lingering effects and a general feeling of weirdness can last for a few hours, and some people have unsettling thoughts for several days afterwards.

What’s the comedown like?

The trip usually ends abruptly, like reality has just decided to drop you off onto the kerb. Some people take days to recover and find themselves anxious, unable to sleep, and can’t concentrate on ‘normal life’ because they’re so preoccupied with what happened to them.

As Javakrypt says, having someone you both trust with you who won't be taking it is a really good idea :yes:

I'd recommend avoiding DMT if you've only had limited experiences with psychedelics, especially if your first trip on something wasn't a good one.

Here is my post from 2007 you may find of interest.

Not my favourite tryptamine that's for sure.

Really powerful visual trip, not for the inexperienced.

DMT is a very strong spiritual trip, as long as you are in the right mindset and within a good environment with someone you feel comfortable with you will have one of the most amazing spiritual experiences ever and feel very enlightened afterwards. Everyones DMT experience is different and it is important to ensure you are relaxed and chilled out to fully appreciate it. - hope this helps.
