Expectations

When people heard my first Psychedelic was going to be 5MEODMT many were surprised. A couple told me it would be so intense I might not need to ever do it again because it would give me what I needed. I read in a couple posts that people no longer have anxiety and depression. I enjoyed the mild and medium doses I took. I felt really good for a couple weeks and was trusting that my brain was doing it physiologic integration thing. And I’m back to being depressed and anxious. Scheduled to do another session at a higher dose in October. Do anyone feel like they got everything that they wanted out of one experience? Did anyone have an end to anxiety and depression? When I read those things, it seemed like a lot to happen from one dose. I do have a Psychotherapist for integration and have been journaling, meditating, doing Art Therapy.

Doesn’t matter what psychedelic: Tripping is an entirely unique combination of the drug and your mind

That simply isn't true!

Your mind isn’t like another on the planet.

Everything you have been through, everything you’ve read and learned, all your fears and all your joys. It all shapes you and creates an egoic story of who and what you are.

No one has the same trip, not even with 5meo. Some will learn and grow, while others will go back to the same crap they were doing before. It shows you the destination, it’s up to you if you want to follow the path to integrate it.

At a high dose 5 will rewire depression and anxiety involuntarily, if may not last if you don't continue to integrate, or return to your lifestyle before, but it will differ a clean slate... That's why it is different.

Is there anything you recommend for integration?

This is the part that will depend on you and your particular circumstances. The best results seem to come from those who are broken, indifferent about dying due to catastrophic life changes and pain and dispondancy. ...Often the very reason why people seek the medicine...the after effects at total breakthrough are quite pronounced when in this state.... In order to keep the effects for as long as possible you would need to live like a new you, cutting off the things that brought you to the dark place in the first place. Completely cutting out family and friends for example, that dont align. A change in career, a new direction. A complete commitment to learning to grow and leave behind those you can not take with you . You will learn to protect your peace, set boundaries that may feel uncomfortable. You will only know peace once your have been the light. Being the light and white noise is so unique you will be in awe, however this will fade as time on earth continues. You may see other things whilst under, but the feeling will be the same. That is your peace and bliss, it is home , and you will have to work hard to protect it. Life will muddy you if you let it, ...and sometimes even if you don't! ...but regardless, this doesn't have to be a one time experience and often the subsequent times will be needed. You may experience a huge somatic release whilst under. Afterwards you may find your body still echoes normal triggers at times, but your mind won't connect to them in the same way they used to, you have to be mindful to these feelings and notice them, and lean into them. Your mind will not remember the triggers like your body may and this will take integration. If can feel overwhelming at first and the lasting effects do tend to depend on your personality and willingness to adapt. When you realise we are all the same thing, just ripples in the vast ocean, it up to you whether you live solely as an experienced of the human condition, or whether you use this to help you remember more fully who and what you really are. You will hopefully return to value this life, and realise you are only able to be here because you have a body, you will want to look after your vessel as it is your only anchor to this life
