Experiences - Did not enjoy Ayahuasca and cannot recommend it

[LookingForHer]

OK... so here is SWIM's trip report, as he wrote to me. Everything here is in SWIM's viewpoint:

"Bought 25g of Banisteriopsis caapi, and nothing else. This because I assumed the item bought, contained the DMT in it already!

WRONG. It was just just a MAOI, no psychoactive. I only found this out after TAKING the stuff.

Now... before taking it, I did some reading, to find out how much grams of Ayahuasca I would need. It said that 25g is the lowest that you can notice anything with. So I guessed my dose was fine as a starting dose.

Actually however, if you assume a 1:1 ratio of Caapi to Viridis... then the gram amount was more like 50g of Ayahuasca, at least in terms of the Caapi involved.

So I took the stuff.

10 minutes later. No effect.

20 Minutes later... notice something, but nothing, much. Some kind of light headedness but that's it. Nothing pleasant.

1 hour later... getting bored, decide to go outside. Then notice Im not quite stable, my senses are much slower, music seems to rush by me like I'm some old man or listening to music that's been sped up. My thoughts however seems as logical as always. No visions... I still decide to go out.

2 hours later. On the train. Feeling sick. I decide to return. Nothing special, just a nasty negative feeling. Sickness... senses are wierd and unbalanced, thoughts are racing little, nothing good at all. I tell myself to not throw up before I get home, hoping my stomach will listen.

3 hours later. Home. Still feeling sick but not throwing up. I go to bed. Some light things in my vision when I close my eyes... but those are probably the same stuff I get in my vision when I close my eyes, I just ignore it usually.

4 hours later. Still in bed. I decide that Caapi has some kind of negative spirit in it. Why else would it make me feel so bad. So much for the healer plant, it made me sick! I concentrate on destroying it inside of me. Then I feel sick. Somehow my stomach wanted to help in on destroying it, and decided to throw up. I rush to the bathroom... and throw up. Yuck. Feel better though. My vision is doing wierd stuff now, flickering. My thoughts are steady, and unaltered. Just my senses are off.

7 hours later. Feeling better, but I can still feel that crap in me. I decide not to do anything wierd with my health again for a long time. I was gonna go out today, but decide against it. I just feel too unsteady. Best to recover."

And there you have it, SWIM's trip report! What a terrible trip he had!

Apparantly it's not worth doing. I agree with him. I mean... if Caapi is that bad, how great can DMT be? I think... probably not best for SWIM not to experiement with his own health for at least another year

If only DXM powder were legal. SWIM wouldn't have to try finding other stuff.

	a very unhelpful trip report. contributes little to the forum.
	Drawing conclusions from a single experience and denying the experiences of others adds little to the forum.
