how high, how long does the high from dmt last? i always thought it only lasted like 15 minutes or so, but i've never done it meself, so idk.. ty ..
Bout 10 minutes start to finish. When we got DMT we had no idea what it was, it was this gluey smelling stuff encrusted over parsely flakes. It was used like a party favor "here, try THIS, oh, and sit down first".
One could tell where the person wanted to be by how long he held the smoke in. Most took a hit, and almost instantly forcefully blew it out, and then they say very still or gently swayed for several minutes and finally said "wow".
For me it was always ALWAYS all black and white, STARK black and white - the angular sharp edged patterns, as someone said, no difference between eyes open or closed. The experience is very much like being shot out of a cannon, you go from sober to intensely high in a few seconds, time tends to lose meaning so the actual experience can be a subjective hour or even more and then you come down rather quickly. After you try it out you know that you can go further because somewhere in the very back of your mind you are aware that it won't be too long so anything you encounter can't get you- it also, in my experience can't communicate with you. If you want to dabble, smoke, if you want to explore - eat and there is also combining harmala with smoking - tends to give you a longer experience ANd the come on is instantaneous. I figure that is where the good and bad qualities of this stuff are, that instantaneous flash into a highly altered state.
On the other hand - the very last time I used DMT, I was drinking heavily out of a tequila bottle and someone switched the hash pipe that was going around with a pipe filled with DMT. Most in the group thought it was great fun, especially when they switched it on me - "Mr. I can handle anything - no problem". When i realized what I had done it was too late and I was off on the worst spins in the world, 4 or 5 rotations a second like spins, SPINNING like spins. If you rolled down Niagara falls in a barrel and then stopped suddenly kind of spins.
And they didn't completely stop till the next morning - after I had thrown up, missing the toilet (gotta compensate for that spin - the bowl should be here right.....NOW) many times.
Smoking DMT while drunk is inadvisable.
