I've never tried DMT, though it's something I'd like to try. I did have an experience with entities and salvia though. I've smoked it a few times and there was always things there...it always felt like to them I was an ant they'd suddenly noticed were aware of them and they just seemed kind of amused.
But one time, I tried smoking a small amout of it while chewing on some extract. I'd read that south American shamans would chew the leaves rather than smoking them.
It was a totally different experience. After about ten minutes I had this extreme sense of derealization, like everything in the world was flat and 2 dimensional the like backdrop of a play and if I tried I could have just ripped it all down to see everything hidden behind it. It was a really strange feeling.
Shortly after that though, was when the entity showed up. At the time, I was fairly addicted to minecraft. Like would spend ally free time playing that game.
All of a sudden there was a voice screaming in my head that i'm wasting my time and life...something made...I really don't know how else to describe it, stand up and start walking into the wall over and over while the voice kept going see, this is what you've been spending your time doing. If you've ever played minecraft, it involves a lot of walking into walls to mine blocks.
At that point, I started getting this overwhelming urge to go outside for a walk. I remember arguing with the thing saying it would be a bad idea to go outside. It ended up relenting and left.
The whole experience was strange...I swear that must be what it feels like to be possessed or something. I know it's like just a hallucination, but it sure felt real and even remembering it it feels real.
Real or not, I stopped playing minecraft after that. Haven't played more than a few hours since.
I never smoked DMT, but I smoked salvia a lot. To avoid crazy trips, you have to take it horizontally in the dark quiet room. About 50% of trips started the same: the UFO arrives and hangs over me. Pulsating tunnel is started to connect me with the ship. Then 'they' start to drag me to the ship. The result depends of the smoked quantity. If you got 1-2 hits, you will not reach the ship. Yes, they will help you, they will drag you, but with no luck. But if you took 2-3 hits, the next what you will see is the space. With ships and 'lands'.
So I felt those entities like good older brothers. In IT terms I was like junior and they like teamlids.
I agree that that world feels more real than this one.
I have no desire to ever try salvia (heard too many bad things about how dysphoric it can be), but the 2D nature of it is really fascinating. You hear that same type of thing from many people. I wonder what the mechanism is that causes that to happen.
>heard too many bad things about how dysphoric it can be
I tried Salvia once (35x extract which, yes, was incredibly dumb for a first timer), and my experience was so nightmarish and traumatic that I've never tried anything stronger than coffee since.
Yeah to agree with you and the parent commenter, salvia's not fun. It's interesting, but not fun. It can be fairly terrifying and i'm not a big fan of the body feeling. It's certainly not something you start craving or wanting to do long term. That was all years ago and when I finished everything I bought, I never replenished it. But, it was interesting.
And just so I don't have to write a second comment, to the above poster.
The 2d effect was one of the strangest things i've ever experienced. I've tried my fair share of hallucinogens, but nothing's been quite like that. It lingered a while longer than everything else. Again though, it wasn't the most pleasant feeling, my girlfriend and roommate were with me and even they had that 2d not real seeming look to them which was kind of disconcerting.
Overall it wasn't really something I regretted and feel like breaking my game addiction was a good outcome, but it's not an experience I'd like to repeat. Even after years, the memory of it all is still pretty vivid.
Your experience with our world being '2 dimensional' and entities observing you existing in a higher dimensional universe - almost as if they're reading (or writing) a two dimensional picture book, we inhabit - gells extremely with one of my salvia experiences. Most profoundly 'psychadelic', almost Lovecraftian experience I've had.
