my first try at Ayahuasca, what went wrong?

Took 10 grams of chaliponga, and boiled it in water for about 12 hours, changed fresh water out 3 times.

boiled what was left down to small drinkable ammount.

Took syrian rue for an MAOI 40 min prior to drinking

I had to purge after about 15 minutes, but other then that it had no effect.

I have heard the wrong water can ruin it. The water I used went through one of those Britta filters, are they not good enough?

 

Aren't you supposed to wait at least an hour till you purge? Maybe thats why...? Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

i dont think brita will remove chlorine or flouride, but i could be wrong.

further, aluminum pots are supposed to be a bad call, from what i understand.

use only spring water or distilled water, and don't use aluminum cookware.

 

Yeah I thought that was a myth that it gave you alzeihmers? I guess I better stop smoking out of tin foil

 

That's must be it, the pot was metal, and it stained the hell out of it, it's all the colors of the rainbow now, bet that's where it went wrong.

I would have waited an hour if I could, but I found it to be worst urge to purge I have gotten from anything, beyond mushrooms or mescaline, neither of those really get to my gut. Which is odd because it didn't tatse to bad, not good at all though.

 

I don't think 15 minutes is long enough for something in your stomach to be fully absorbed.

 

From what I've heard, you're not always guaranteed a vision. It's a bit fickle.

 

you could do everything right and still not get it. its hit or miss somtimes, especially in the beginning iv noticed.

 

Read some about Ayahuasca experiences. I've heard about people doing it dozens of times and never having a visionary experiences, and then, whang.

 

yea...you might try just starting with distilled water as opposed to britta water [though it's damn good drinking water].

i guess it will work when you're ready.
