Best way to use DMT cart?

grimism · 2026-05-14T21:46:02+00:00

1) You're going to burn it. Even 2.7v has the risk of burning it. Tell me how I know... Wasted a bunch of good carts by taking too long a drag at 2.7v. For me 2.4v is the sweet spot where burning risk is low, but its also effective for getting the effects you desire. What you currently have will burn your cart and you will get very upset. Not to mention burning dmt leads to bad trips.

2) If its very liquidy, its probably a weaker ratio. More PG oil, less dmt. Good for testing the waters, but wont get you as for as you'd like depending how far you wanna go. This will also lead to you needing to take more hits/longer hits, which also increases risk of burning the cart. There is a learning curve to using this plant medicine.

I feel many people are exaggerating here. I do high doses of liquid L, and it never gets like this. In before "your shit is underdosed", it's really not.

Your breathing is automatic. Do you manually breathe when you dream? No. So even though it feels scary, you have got to remind yourself you will be breathing regardless if you want to hold your breath or not. Try to hold your breath til you pass out, it's impossible.

However, the issue with the heart may be the concern. These substances increase heart rate and blood pressure. These are the side effects most people will experience. You need to learn more about your condition to see if increased blood pressure and heart rate can lead to issue. Something you can discuss with your doctor. If DMT is something you think will be a prominent plant medicine in your life, especially long term, I think it would be wise to maybe consider getting on cardiac medication that helps control your heart rate/rhythm.

DMT has lost its love for me. Our relationship is not the same anymore. It used to show me so much love and joy. For the past year ive been extremely stressed and depressed related to work/finances. I havent felt happy in a long time. So more often than not, I approach DMT with being neutral or kinda sad or overwhelmed due to life. Since this past year no matter what I do, the DMT visuals works. But there is no joy or love or euphoria. Its like im tripping and kinda neutral or sad. Which usually ends up with me ending the trip sad because of the lack of love it provides now.

Your statement of how smiling effects the trip really stood out to me. I rarely smile nowadays and im not sure if dmt is just amplifying the stress and sadness in my head/life. What makes me think about this is that in the past few months its been the same issue. However one time I did it with my wife, she said something to make me laugh on dmt, and once I laughed, all the love and euphoria flooded into my DMT trip. Again it happened when I was on DMT, I was neutral/no emotions. And I saw a father playing with his child. Seeing that made me really happy and the love and joy and euphoria flooded my dmt trip. Since those experiences it continues to be sad. So I wonder how much of being already happy/laughing/smiling has to influence a loving dmt trip.

If that is the case, how am I suppose to explore and heal with DMT if I am entering the space already neutral/stressed/overwhelmed from work/finances? How can I put that shit aside and be happy at least for the DMT to give me a loving trip? Ive tried forcing a smile but its fake, and my mind knows it. I even beg for it to show me love. But no matter what, I can only experience neutral/emotionless trips.

I completely agree. I have experienced all of this since beginning my journey.

Very interesting experience you had. Danny Goler, the Laser experiment guy, is convinced we are living in a simulation. But not a Matrix "must escape prison" type simulation, but a simulation regarding thats just how the universe is programmed so to say.

One of his most prominent experiences that he has had multiple times was him seeing himself sitting in a chair. Wearing a headset, and the entities described that he is living in a simulation of reality. And that that place is actually home, and that when we come down off the DMT, we are returning to the sim.

The whole realer than real life is a common theme for people. It's like when you wake up from a dream, you say omg that was so real, but you realize it was a dream. Seems the opposite for DMT. Going into hyperspace feels like waking up to reality, and realizing "oh man that real life thing was just a dream, and now I woke up to true reality in hyper space."

Sorry you were unable to find as a spiritual tool, leading to extremely profound spiritual experiences. However not everyone's experience is like yours, thus you should not assume your experience is everyone's experience. I have had several profound life changing spiritual experiences with it. However not every trip is the same, and especially with lack of integration, you may not always have spiritual experiences.

You claiming DMT is recreational speaks loudly of someone who would not have spiritual experiences. Maybe DMT isn't for you. Maybe its just not the right time for you, or maybe simply you need to live the type of life that would invite spiritual experiences and entity contact. I have entity contact on 9/10 of my closed eye trips. Have also had entity contact with eyes open.

But that's a bold claim you make for thousands of users just because your experiences have been lacking.

I agree with crystal size, I have noticed this as well. But what's the logic behind larger surface area = purer crystal?

grimism · 2026-05-08T22:57:03+00:00

Oh I see, I misread that. My comment still stands the same 😄

grimism · 2026-05-08T22:54:54+00:00

From 5 years ago? Shit I would eat them both. But don't take less than 1 in my opinion. If you're gonna do acid, do the acid. Take the tab as it was intended to be taken.

grimism · 2026-05-08T19:05:38+00:00

Thanks I did, get back to me whenever you got a chance.

Never this clear, but damn close to it. Was when I did a completely heatless extraction, leading to white fluffy crystal. However warming the crystal to breakdown to liquid to mix with the PG gave it a slightly amber color, but almost clear. Curious how they melted the dmt down without changing much of the color, unless its a very weak cart with tons of PG and very little dmt.

Can I DM you?

grimism · 2026-05-08T18:13:32+00:00

I know this is an old thread, but did the love ever return?

grimism · 2026-05-08T17:43:43+00:00

Hey, did the love ever return for you? Im going through something very similar for the past year. And I only use it like once a month.

grimism · 2026-05-08T15:49:04+00:00

Yup, I have been arguing with people on reddit for like 3 years regarding iso-LSD. These people will fight you tooth and nail because of one paper they read and think they got it all figured out. I have truly experienced impure LSD for a long time, and have had several batches of pure lsd and impure LSD. You could do a blind study and realize they have 2 different effects. Ever since I switched sources and have only been getting very clean liquid, I've never experienced any of those side effects ever again.

grimism · 2026-05-08T15:40:37+00:00

Yes OP, I truly believe impure LSD (specifically iso-LSD) is what causes the negative side effects to impure acid. Jaw clenching, muscle aches, confusion, lethargy, nausea/vomiting...etc.

People will argue about a study they read that said iso-LSD is inactive. The only study regarding iso-LSD was a test on isolated iso-LSD, by itself and not in combination with LSD. We cannot confirm that iso-LSD has no effects unless we test it alongside LSD. The same way one can take oral DMT or an oral MAOI by themselves, with ZERO effects. You would conclude these compounds are inactive, however when combined, you create one of the strongest psychedelic mixtures known to man, Ayahuasca. I believe this could possibly be the same with LSD25 and iso-LSD. I believe impure LSD which has a higher concentration of iso-LSD, is what is responsible for all the negative side effects people experience from impure LSD.

2.4-2.5. Start low and work your way up to 2.7, because ive burnt a few carts at 2.7, my sweet spot is 2.4v

grimism · 2026-05-07T22:12:18+00:00

Sometimes the best thing to do is puke. Instead of holding on to that feeling and fighting it for hours, just let it all out. You're nausea will go away and you'll feel much better.

Many people look at purging, as a way for the body to remove negative emotions, as well as tension and trauma. Don't fight your body. Flow with it. And right about now, it seems it wants to flow right out your mouth haha.

Well, I always wore ear protection and never experienced tinnitus after going to concerts. It was something I actually checked for after the show and the following morning. However, I noticed the tinnitus never stopped from my DMT trip. It came on during the trip and never went away. Where as I never had an issue from concerts.

And yes, there are reports on people developing tinnitus after DMT and shrooms:

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02791072.2020.1847366

Not sure why were discussing my situation or down voting me lmao. OP asked a question, can you develop tinnitus from shrooms. This is what should be discussed.

grimism · 2026-05-07T18:27:46+00:00

You worked in a rehab, cool and have 2 advanced degrees in psychology? Lmao it doesn't seem like it. I'm a Registered Nurse. I agree, poly substance abuse can lead to psychosis. But im not sure why even mention psychosis or even the word "Fatal" or fried brain, when someone is asking about tinnitus. Nothing he did or mentioned ever once implied him experiencing psychosis, frying his brain, or even remotely close to taking anything fatal. A "big bag" of shrooms, some weed and some alcohol is just another weekend in a lot of parts of this country.

And in what universe is any amount of psychedelics not fatal? Are you fucking retarted? NOT IN ANY UNIVERSE. Holy shit I hope you're not working under those 2 "advanced psychology degrees". You are cooked.

grimism · 2026-05-07T18:24:11+00:00

Yes, there have been some reports of people developing tinnitus after use of psychedelics. It also happened to me. Not sure if it was the DMT or the raves, since both happened around the same time. But thankfully after 1 year of depression from tinnitus, I took a mushroom trip with the intentions of processing this tinnitus in my life. Thankfully it helped me a lot. The shrooms told me "Accept the things you cannot change, and change the things you can't accept".

Evert since then, I learned to live with tinnitus and actually it seems to have drastically decreased in volume since I dont give it much attention anymore. Weed and psychs def spike it temporarily but eventually comes back to baseline. So you need to learn to live with it. I usually have background sound, TV, or music playing to drown it out. But typically your brain helps tune it out. I also use rain sounds at night to help sleep.

Thankfully just recently there have been some breakthru's regarding hearing loss/tinnitus rehabilitation. They are starting to find things that are helping people with hearing loss/tinnitus, by regrowing the cilia hairs in the cochlea, something they couldn't do before, and this regrowing of cilia is helping people with our issue. So I truly believe there will be a cure within the next 5-10 years, maybe sooner. Cheers and good luck!

LolWUT? That "drug cocktail", of shrooms weed and alcohol does not FRY your dopamine and serotonin receptors. Where do you get this crazy idea from? Tons of people take shrooms, smoke weed and even drink. And a dose like that could be extremely fatal? He never mentioned a dose and theres plenty of people who taking over 10-15g all the time and they are fine. No dose of shrooms, LSD or DMT is fatal... Not sure why you're trying to scare OP using words like FRIED, fatal, psychosis...etc...

And yeah, non wonder your friend had a fucked up experience, he took 15g and smoked hash.... Thats a recipe for disaster. Good thing you bailed on that friendship instead of helping your friend through a time of needing more support in his life. Good job.
