Johns Hopkins DMT Entity Survey (No Longer Recruiting) 13

Hi!
We are researchers at Johns Hopkins University working on a study regarding the experiences of people who have had encounters with seemingly autonomous entities after taking DMT. This anonymous internet survey involves asking about your experiences with this entity encounter, including the short-term and long-term effects.
If you are interested in participating or would like to know more about the study, please click the link below to the secure study site. We anticipate that it will take you approximately 20-40 minutes to complete the survey. Your participation is completely anonymous.

Thanks, Hopkins Psychedelic Research Team

For people that the study does not apply to is their anyway to read the results? Seems like it would be an interesting read.

You should post this in TPE, you might get some more indepth responses.

I've taken a few surveys on this site when they come up. They all seem pretty legit. I doubt it's a cop trying to figure out who uses DMT
And why would the pigs have any interest in these entities that people seem to have contact with anyways?
Sadly I cannot participate, I've never tried DMT yet.

I've done DMT about eight times but am puzzled by what exactly they want to know.

He's a prof of psych and behavioral sci at JHMI. There's a ton of shit online supporting his credibility. Ya'll got the internet?

I’ve always been confused by these one way sterile questionnaires, really all things like this. The best action is really just cracking a beer and doing some chit chat in TPE or Nexus and actually talking with a person. Those pre-scripted questions already have you at a disadvantage I would think but, I don’t punch the time clock in those places so maybe they get something from it I’m just not seeing.
In my world I would think if they’re curious they could just blast off and meet the matter at hand in the flesh..

Even if he could it's unlikely he could write about personal experience without severe scrutiny/consequence and likely losing his job over illegal drug use.
FWIW, I've never met a "DMT entity" and I've gone pretty deep, likely the deepest being a mixture of lysergamides and DMT. I've been blasted through hyperspace at speeds I didn't know existed, but I never got to meet any self dribbling basketballs or machine elves

I dislike the study is set up to only talk to people who have perceived entities.
Ive done dmt a boatload of times its cool but theres no entities trying to make contact.
Imagine if there was some entities using dmt to contact us only dmt is worse than dial up because no one ever seems to actually get to be shown anything by these entities

That’s the one thing about science that completely misses the bullseye with these things. You can’t put it in a cup or a scale, it is completely beyond that. So trying to “box it in” and somehow contain it, just doesnt work.
@shadows, if he was sincerely curious he could take part and then speak in terms that dont self implicate. You shouldnt be afraid of what you believe in if its not wrong. Are we, at our ‘highest levels of seeking understanding’ afraid to seek in first person?
Come on man, again “the system”. You want to know what a hamburger tastes like? Eat a hamburger and your knowledge will surpass the man who spent his entire life reading thousands of books about hamburgers.
Just do it

Science becomes more convincing when its quantitated and measured, then assessed via statistical measures. It becomes much more convincing when you have a sample size all saying the same thing versus one random person.
Whether or not it can be captured and in a cup and put on a scale is a matter of opinion. Many disagree and would point to the actual data suggesting that indeed, it can. Similarly, thousands of years ago most humans never would have imagined we'd step foot on the moon.

Why's that?
There's countless other aspects of psychedelics that need to be studied, but many are much easier to study individually.
Even the shared experience of entities a couple of times is something that science has no answers for, and to me is more interesting than just about anything else being studied at the moment. In this small poll I made a little while back, 12 out of 18 people reported seeing entities, and 2 out of 4 who had done ayahuasca reported seeing a serpent. Definitely poses some interesting questions.

Good point.
I’m just saying, one could read many reports about people’s visits to Mt Rushmore and know very well where washington’s nose is on the map. But they could also get in the car and go see it personally to know exactly where it resides within this life.
I suppose if you’re crunching numbers, the reports work in your favor, on paper. But, you’ll really never know what it really is. And who better than one of the smart guys who understands all those structures within how they work and catalog? It would be dope if a terrence or dennis worked for John Hopkins.
Either way, I feel I’m derailing from the origional point so, my blessings to all involved. There’s gold in them thar hills and I’m glad this sort of thing is an ‘acceptable topic’. It’s an exciting time.

FUCKING ALIENS, dude they're on to us!
They made MHRB more expensive
They've been putting down all those videos about psychedelic drugs on YouTube!
And now they want to know about these entities that are contacting us while on DMT??
Its too coincidental that a substance makes strangers hallucinate the same shit, people

An exciting time indeed. And due to politics and other BS, it could be a terrible career move(a well as discrediting to your research) for anyone involved in these studies to admit personal use. That certainly doesn't mean that it doesn't happen, though

I think the author is looking for some info on the demographics of people who use DMT and report seeing "entities". Their's actually a lot of research being done right now using psychedelic substances because they closely mimic our body's own nuerotransmitters and so can offer a lot of insight into how the mind works and, to a certain extent, how and why certain mental disorders arise.
Very exciting times we are witnessing here.
