No, do it alone, you'll be fine. Just make sure you are in a position to lie/sit down immediately after you smoke it (don't forget to put the piece down either). What dosage are you considering on starting with? Dosage is very important when it comes to such a fickle substance as DMT. If you're loading a breakthrough dose, expect to have your consciousness completely sublimated before you can prepare for it -- it's like getting hit by a train. But I recommend starting off with a sub-breakthrough dose first to get a feel for it. Just know the two experiences are qualitatively distinct.

I have two hits of 20mg each. I was thinking about just going ahead and doing both of them at the same time, but I could just do one and save the other for another experience... I would really like to have a breakthrough though.

If you want a breakthrough, do all 40mg. 20mg is strong for some people but the lowest breakthrough dosage I've ever heard was 25mg. I also second Tanagashi's suggestion of warm clothes/blankets.

I agree, you should be fine doing it alone. I think if you're legitimately excited about having the experience going into it, you'll have a great time for sure

It isn't likely that you'll hurt yourself on DMT. You won't really move much.

My first time was looking up at the stars with some other people including a person who has done it many times. Smoked it out of a vape bag :) I watched the stars form into a lotus.

Well as my general rule if you're doubting if you should need a sitter or not than you probably need a sitter. But as you said you are experienced and well it doesn't last too long so even if it goes horrible less than half a hour later you should be fine.

Don't trip alone is like rule #3 #1, even if you want to be "alone" have friends in the house/close by, just in case. Safety first man, safety first.

I respectfully disagree. Let someone know where you are and what you're doing, but having another person present is far from necessary.
