DMT's effects on the developing brain

kind of a dick move to point out particular forumers like that man

 

Why do you care? Your mind is always developing and changing.

 

The first time I read that I took it as an insult. I need to stop this cronic stoned posting.

But my theory is it isn't harmful to your development. It just might take it off in a different direction. It can enlighten you or make you go crazy or do nothing substantial oncesoever.

It is up to you to maintain perspective.

 

After my incident with 5-me0 dmt I'm not sure I agree with this. Kind of like Roorshack's Dob experience it felt like it shocked my system or something
and gaining perspective back was only going to happen with time and unfortunately I had to resort to medication as well. 5-me0 dmt supposedly elicits lasting negative effects more commonly than dmt though, which is interesting.

 

Reference to my post

 

no it is not too young - if you wanna experience it, then by all means go for it; it will just be much different than you expect it will be.

 

I tripped for my first time at the age of 15 (Might have been 14) on 25 mg of 2CE. As MMT stated above, you are not too young, but it is best that you have no premeditated expectations of what you will feel, see, hear, and be encompassed by.

Now per the thread subject, and on a similar note, that first trip changed my life tremendously. My ego was disintegrated, my perception was exponentially broadened, and my belief in the infinite possibilities of this world was reinforced.

I have always been a pretty bright guy, and 6 years after my first trip I still fancy myself rather bright.... That being said... I will never know what effects 6 years of substance abuse has had.

That, I propose, is the debate. The human mind is as unique as it's fingerprints, and never will someone be able to tell you how YOU will react to a substance. They may be able to say your blood pressure will spike, or heart rate will increase, or whatever it may be, but never will you know what your mind will conclude.

Our body is one giant chemistry equation... and no two people balance the same.

to the 15 year old.... I will say this.... Once you trip for your first time... regardless of what "permanent effects" we may debate.... you WILL NOT be able to take it back, you WILL love it, and you WILL NEVER know all it's mysterious secrets.

Tripping is a permanent decision, regardless of permanent effects

Tripping is means to an end... an enlightened end


EDIT: This is my hundredth post... yaaay!

 

i just want to say i think this is an EXCELLENT question
