I know vaped/smoked dmt is a short duration trip, but how long realistically do you need afterwards to reintegrate back to reality after your first breakthrough?
Like is the rest of your day just spent going wtf wow wtf wow wtf?
Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts

for me, DMT experiences are very fleeting...I'll breakthrough and come out laughing out loud at the sheer ridiculousness of it whilst awestruck with some profound information that just seems to go away as fast...maybe faster than a dream. 20 minutes later I just have a vague outline left of what happened.
Feels great though and has a nice afterglow and reset effect.
If it's your first time, you will most likely be thinking about it all day but it wont be jarring or impairing your faculties I wouldn't think.
you'll probably just wanna...smoalk moar
I love the stuff

My first time I sat around for like a half hour thinking what the FUCK was that?
Functionally I was fine, but having to do any sort of trivial socializing would've been rough for the rest of the day. Having someone to talk to and process it helps a lot, especially someone who's into psychedelics, or even just writing up a trip report on here.

Pretty much this exactly lol .
One of the first times I had a real proper "smoked dmt experience"...I exclaimed out-loud "what the fuck was that!!?" as soon as I was back "down" enough to reflect on what just happened (and I'm a super quiet person that doesn't talk much or make much noise at all, always in my head and damn near mute some of the time lol, so I thought it was super funny how I reacted and made such an exclamation with actual words spoken outloud).
...and then for the next hour or so I could not stop thinking, "What the fuck was that!?", like I literally just kept going around and around in my head thinking those exact words, "what the fuck was that?"...I had to give my friend a call soon after just to try to process my thoughts about what ever just happened.
The experience was so alien and bizarre it just left me flabbergasted, like I couldn't wrap my mind around what I just went through.
It wasn't traumatizing or anything like that (tho no doubt things like that can occur), it was just so peculiar and strange and unlike anything else I've experienced in this 3-D space that my life resides in and unlike anything I've experienced even in my travels & trips with psychedelics.
I don't even find full on smoked DMT experiences to be "psychedelic" AT ALL...It's more like dying, or being abducted, or being tossed into a cosmic pin-ball machine...Super duper strange stuff.
Functionally...within 30 to 60 minutes after I'm usually "all there" and fine enough that I could drive a car, even sooner than that sometimes. But there is usually a lingering tryptamine headspace/glow that will have one's cognition & headspace just a little "out there" for a little while after. And I'm talking in regards to a full on dose where one will basically detach from their physical surroundings/body for a bit. With a milder dose that's mostly just super visual but where one is still aware of their surroundings, by 15 to 30 min after I'd be fully coherent and good to drive.
With a full on big dose, functionally I'm fine not long after but I won't be able to get the thought of what just happened out of my mind. I'd hate to have tasks/work & responsibilities to take care of not long after having such an experience, I'd much rather be able to have some hours to reflect on & think about what happened.
Smoked DMT does tend to give me a pleasant glow and calmness/tranquility that lingers for a while after. Not unlike the afterglow of mushrooms once the trip has settled down, just that tryptamine feel.

Thanks for the replies i have a dmt cart I keep putting off taking the dive. Knowing what to expect in the aftermath is helpful to putting a plan together. Not sure I want to do it alone or with a friend.

I recommend if you are smoking/vaporizing it, do two hits, then meditate afterwards, then redose and do the three hitter quitter (or get a really good water pipe and use something like menthol and water to mask the mothball taste)
Then take a fat rip and hold it in for about 15 seconds. You should be able to blast off if you do two hits this way. I used an electronic nail to vaporize the DMT since I didn't want to try to blast off with a torch or anything

Do you know about how concentrated/potent the dmt-cart is?
I've heard some carts are mild/diluted, where one can basically puff on the thing repeatedly and never get anywhere near a "breakthrough"....
...and I've heard some are pretty concentrated & potent, where one single good toke/lung full off the thing will have one completely gone.
Generally tho, if one is aiming to get "out there" and have a so-called "breakthrough" experience, the idea is to take multiple hits until one no longer can lol. You basically just want a bunch of DMT flooding your brain as rapidly as possible lol.
In regards to doing it solo or with a friend around...I personally don't lean any other way with smoked DMT. It's nice to have someone around when "you're back", but at the same time I am one that enjoys going into things alone. If anything tho, I suppose I would rather have a friend around for once I'm back down, it's nice to have someone around to bounce one's mind & thoughts off of and speak about what ever just happened lol.
And tho it isn't common with DMT, sometimes people do roll around and flail around out of control after smoking DMT while they are not "in their body". It's happened to me once before, I've seen it happen to another once before, and I've heard like 2 or 3 stories on the shroomery about it happening to some folks. So having someone around to watch over your body while "you're not in it" can be nice too lol....Not to spook you though, things like that aren't all that common but it does happen from time to time. Most of the time one will just look like they're in a deep sleep (motionless and silent), or having an intense dream (heavy breathing, some random twitches and/or vocalizations)....
Next time I get around to it I'm def going to try to use a vape pen/cart for vaping the stuff....It seems like such a consistent and reliable method to deliver the dose versus smoking the stuff on a bowl of herb or using an oil pipe. Once one figures out the concentration they like to work with a vape pen/cart will deliver basically the same dose every time, which would make taking the dive a whole lot easier (for me)....I've had so many "failed launches" using other methods like smoking it on a bowl of herb. Not knowing how well it was actually going to work, since it was never consistent for me, tossed in a whole other variable of "unknowns" that made smoking the stuff even more of an anxious task to do lol...Since I never got a method down that always consistently worked and delivered the dose properly the same every time, the entire ordeal was always hit or miss for me (tho I def have had success smoking it on a bowl of herb or even in a joint, a vape pen/cart would be so much more effective & consistent/reliable).
I'm assuming this will be your first time with smoked/vaped DMT?...I'm excited for you lol.

My favorite time to smoke/vape dmt is night, it makes me so so sleepy afterwards
I also probably smoked dmt 50 times or so before I actually brokethru and seent/ communicated with entities
Shit gets DEEP

Openmind the cart was advertised as 500mg dmt freebase to .5ml pg base, it actually looks like some dmt crystals have formed since it has been sitting in my cool basement. The seller had a warning/tip that people should not use generic 810 batteries like you would with a thc cart. It is apparently important to use a battery capable of delivering 4v with consistency, otherwise you will be just puffing pg and thinking it is bunk.
I have an eleaf pico box mod that I use for dabs on tiatanum coils at 26v which I plan to use, so should be good there.
Thanks for thoughts on solo vs. With a sitter. Probably going to be solo but will make sure I am in a place where physical injury risk will be low. Kind of thinking I might just do it in the middle of my backyard. And yes first time.
