Is it normal i've been feeling a strong need to psych out?

On psychedelics? Particularly DMT?

I've always though i was the type to try psychedelics, but i never have. I'm starting to feel like the time is coming. I just heard about DMT and, i don't know why, of all things this makes me want to take the trip. I've been researching it for the past two days, and i really don't do that unless i'm going to take the drug.

Every account I have read on it seems to describe this common experience, as if all experiences are connected, yet everyone receives their own special knowledge from it. They all describe another dimension with otherworldly beings of immense knowledge. It's not like what I hear about acid and shrooms. It seems to take it's user further from reality... Or perhaps closer to it. I just think this might be the drug for me! I feel like it's calling me to it. I will likely end up trying the smaller stuff first (acid, shrooms) to avoid that major shock.

I have lost my sense of self. I am becoming angrier every day. I've lost sight of the meaning of life.my fears control me. I just want to let go.Is this the way? Please if anyone has experience with psychedelics... With their effect on mental health, would you say this could be a healing experience? Or would it just cause more anxiety?

I feel like i'm going to lose my mind sometimes.Like i'm being sucked into the material world.

I constantly fear death and I feel i need to confront it.

For you sir, from your description it is NOT the way. You will become less self assured and more confused about yourself, others and reality in general. Ever hear the saying good trip/ bad trip. Go into with a bad mindstate and you will most certainly pshyc out, lol.

  I know about bad trips and they do worry me. I also know many people who have tried shrooms and acid. However, they all did it mostly for recreation. I want to do it for spiritual healing. My mind was once free, but now it is trapped. I already have a psychedelic mind and i'm sure i would love it. I would make sure the atmosphere and my state of mind were in the right place.
  
  I smoke weed, so i'm used to going into an altered state. I kind of think a bad trip is more likely on marijuana than acid since it causes paranoia, but of course i don't know that for certain.

  I've heard it described as psychedelic crack and a every acid trip condensed into one.

DMT can be the most incredible expierence of your life depending on the state of mind i am preparing myself mentally with lots of questions before i do DMT. Dmt will put you into another deminsionn where all your wildest dreams and biggest fears will be answered you have to know how to stay calm and dont give in to astonishment. you have to know your safe and everything will be alright no negative thoughts!

If your mental state is that bad right now, it might not be the best idea to try psychedellics. DMT is incredibly strong but short lived, probably your best bet given the circumstances, but I don't really know... I've never had a bad trip myself per say, but I've seen one and it made my night a living hell. (also tripping)

Set and setting are very important, you should be in a baseline, stable state of mind in a safe, comfortable place, with a small group of people you trust. (my best trips were always 3 person trips, but DMT isn't really like that.. generally goes one at a time and other people who are there stay quiet while you blast off). Especially if you have some problems, I wouldn't reccoment tripping alone. I never have, honestly I'm kinda scared to.

  So you've done DMT? what was it like for you?
  
  I'm not completely insane and depressed... I don't experience all of the feelings i mentioned at one time, they just run their course in phases, repetitively. I can probably even figure out what time of the month my mind is at it's best.. Maybe during a full moon :?
  
  I'm making a playlist that will comfort me and trip me out. I might even plan to make some art.
  
  I'm a bit worried about not being the same for my family afterward or being more loopy than i already am. I'm also a little worried about my art. It's already write Troy

    Oh wow I don't think I ever got this notification. For me, well I don't think I did quite enough to be gone gone... I was still kind of aware of what was going on around me, people were being rather talkative too because we had done acid. We were also just using a bowl, I think a bong or a steamroller would have worked better.
    
    But when I closed my eyes... it was like the air became solid. There was something else there, moving through the air and connecting me to everything else. What I saw... difficult to describe. Fractals so complex I couldn't see into them deeply, folding into corridors, folding into human figures... whole body vibrations.
    
    It sounds like you're relatively prepared for the experience. I came out of it with an increased sense of connectivity with everyone, though I really want to do it again and see if I can push farther.
    
    My art was trippy before doing psychedellics, but don't worry about it somehow corrupting the place your work is coming from. The way I see it all of the inspiration tripping (and closed eye visualizations) have given me were still from me... they were still in my head, still created by the firing in my brain...
    
    Honestly now that I think about it (and it was partially because of the setting, doing DMT at a crowded party house) some of the deepest, weirdest experiences I've had came from combining acid and binural beats. Maybe find a good binural to listen to when you do it.. I could link you the one that took me on a crazy astral journey if it's still on youtube :P

      Thank you for the awesome advice. I haven't tripped yet, lol. Still waiting for the right time...i've actually become scared to try acid because my boyfriend has been researching and apparently it contains some kind of dangerous ingredient called strip9, so... Idk. I still really want to try DMT though.
      
      I would love for you to refer me to these binary beats you speak of. I don't think i've ever heard of that style of music, lol, but sounds interesting. I am going to listen to idiot pilot, but other than that i'm at a loss of music.

        Hmm. well I just looked up strip9 and that's not even the right word. There is a urine test called strip9 but what you're thinking about is Strychnine and I think I can put you to ease on that one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_misconceptions_about_illegal_drugs#Strychnine

        And this has a shitload of information about it.
        
        Binural beats are really fascinating. Some are just vibratory and some have music incorporated, I really like the ones with music. But you need headphones that can split the sound between ears to listen to them, I reccomend some kinda studio headphone. They play sounds of different frequency in each ear and it alters your state of mind.

    Sorry, my phone cut off my typing. I was saying my art is trippy and I don't want people to think my art is good because I did psychedelics. I want that to come from something that is already within me.
