Does anyone know if the drug DMT is bad for you in anyway?
From what I have read tge only bad thing is the smoke going into your lungs, you can't get stuck in a trip or anything.

I recommend DMT to everyone with the opportunity to try it. Though it can be somewhat terrifying, the experience is worth it. There's a reason it's called the teacher plant.
Smoking DMT requires that you heat it to boiling point, just like smoking crack (not that I expect anyone to know what that means). I recommend using a bong and filling the bowl or cone (if you're an aussie) with brillo. This will enable the DMT to melt into the brillo without getting sucked through the bong, evaporating it and giving you the most bang for your buck. It is the most efficient way to use it and to be honest, as long as you're in a comfortable setting, you'll want to shoot off as far into space as possible. While it's easy to get nervous before doing it, you really just have to remind yourself that you'll be fine, the experience will be finite, you will come back down without any problems, and you will definitely regret holding back. You want to take the biggest rip you possibly can. While the experience can be a little scary at first, that's all just nervousness from trying something new. Once you blast off, as long as you're in a comfortable setting, you'll have an amazing time. At the very least you will learn so much, it will be worth it no matter what.
Technically there's no tolerance though so while I don't personally think it matters, you can always go for just a taste to start off with in order to get to know the experience.
Don't bother putting on any music, don't bother filling a room with psychedelic imagery. The best way to take it is to just smoke it, lie down on your bed or the floor (I prefer the floor) and close your eyes.
Thank you so much. This was very helpfull.Quote:

Can I just smoke it like that?
Through a bong or joint.
You cannot smoke it through a joint. Without brillo, you're likely to suck it through the bong as it will melt into liquid form once you hit it with a lighter. If you cannot use a bong + brillo, us a pipe with several screens to catch and trap the liquid in order to boil it.
Since I haven't done DMT, or alcohol or any other kind of drug, I'm not going to convince anyone. But having perused some threads over at a DMT forum that someone linked to a month ago, the ambivalence in their DMT inspired visions of god seems to me to be noteworthy. They experience a combination of deep interconnected beauty and indifferent brutality. Of course there's a fair amount of that in nature, but there's a lot more of the indifferent brutality in their trips than there is in my experiences of what otherwise seems to be pretty much the same thing. And I think that's a reflection of the drug use, of the subtle effect that its having on them.
An coworker familiar with DMT who I talked to agreed with my analysis. But of course other people are going to have other experiences and opinions.
To directly answer the question in the original post, no, it's not bad for you in any way. As long as you vaporize it correctly you'll be fine, and if you don't the smoke might hurt your lungs a bit but it won't do any permanent damage. As for the actual experience.... All I can say about it objectively is that it's intense, so be ready for that. Subjectively it kind of depends on your relationship with psychedelics in general. I personally feel that DMT is very distant and impersonal for me as compared to things like LSD and mushrooms so I don't do it very often, I usually come out of it feeling euphoric but generally like I wasted my time.
It's against forum rules to instruct others how to use drugs.
