DMT — or N, N-dimethyltryptamine in medical talk — is a hallucinogenic tryptamine drug. Sometimes referred to as Dimitri, this drug produces effects similar to those of psychedelics, like LSD and magic mushrooms.
DMT is a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States, which means it’s illegal to make, buy, possess, or distribute it. Some cities have recently decriminalized it, but it’s still illegal under state and federal law.
DMT naturally occurs in many plant species, which have been used in religious ceremonies in some South American countries for centuries.
It can also be made in a laboratory.
Some experts believe the pineal gland produces it in the brain and releases it when we dream.
Others believe it’s released during birth and death. Some go further to say this release of DMT at death may be responsible for those mystical near-death experiences you sometimes hear about.

Not to get too philosophical but it made me remember something…
I was told by a top specialist in Boston that Drs. know actually very little about the pineal gland and it’s function other than possibly wake/sleep cycles, yet top specialists aren’t even sure of the exact functions in that regard. In fact IMO it’s actually a bit frightening to know how little Drs. know about the brain in general and specifically the neurological intricacies and, again, the pineal gland.
That brings one back to the fact that science fails to admit to know the entire existence of a huge being (or beings) that actually roams our earth many times larger than a man with sightings and encounter reports dating back to the beginning of recorded time. No wonder the body, at least it’s more invisibly verifiable aspects (such as functions of certain glands) are still, in many ways, a mystery.
Thanks, Wes, for these interesting videos you always manage to dig up and make my brain work overtime, lol.

Rough experience.

Definitely need to have the right atmosphere and the right people around you during these trips because they can go bad, but even with a bad trip there’s always something positive you can take away from it. Anything can cause your experience to go bad, stress, anxiety, bad surroundings and even alcohol. I would not let this detour you from trying them again. Just put yourself in the right surroundings and you can have the best time of your Life, and after a couple awesome experiences you’ll forget about the bad one all together. Shrooms on my friends ????

Very interesting. And it confirmed for me and my wife that my micro dosing did help me kick my tobacco use. And it helps control my anxiety. The west coast definitely got it right to vote the use of magic mushrooms for medical use. It will definitely help a lot of people ☺️

we used to do mushrooms and go out in the woods back in high school days. So when i listen to this show (which is all of the time now) I wonder if anyone has ever had an encounter….while being out in the woods ON MUSHROOMS… I think I’d have a heart attack!!

I’ve experimented with different type of hallucinogens and DMT is something totally different. Turn a atheist into a believer lol!

A friend of mine his wife and two kids sailed around the equator on their sailboat for 7 years. They home schooled their children but did let them finish out their last two years of high school in the States. They would need to check in to each country like you do in the USA when they arrived. The natives were always very curious and interested in their boat. He claimed Trump had it all wrong about people from India and afar and stated they were the nicest, most giving and welcoming people he has ever encountered and never had any negative experiences. Many times they would need to contact The Chief of a tribe when they arrived in very far off places to check in kind of like customs per say, sometimes the chief wore less than Tarzan. Quite an experience for his family to venture out like that and experience that lifestyle. Once he went hiking up into a rainforest into some mountains with a couple natives where they came across others and was asked if he wanted some Kava and this wasn’t USA grocery store or GNC Kava it was fresh loco Kava. They gave them money and got a scoop of fresh liquid Kava and everyone was drinking it. Said he tripped his ass off.

Its so interesting that so many people see the same entities on their trip. I look forward to the further research with psychedelic’s to assist with anxiet, depression, ptsd and addictions. I have a family member that micro-dosing with dmt has worked wonders for kicking his hard drug addictions, it was the entities he encountered upon the first trip that scared/guided him straight (as he described). I have never done the drug myself… but get detailed drawings and descriptions from him each time he doses.

The thing with near death experience though if this is true. Why is it that most people have the same experirnce? They see the same things. Even to the point of seeing things on top of counters and roof tops that are actually really there.
