First Intramuscular Experience with 5-MeO-DMT HCl
Set and Setting: Having reflected on intentions, done extensive research on dosage, and in a state of calm. Mantra on repeat: Ek Ong Kar Sat Gur Prasad, Sat Gur Prasad Ek Ong Kar
Dose: 1.5mg IM
From a solution with a concentration of 10mg/ml, I drew up 1.5cc's in an insulin syringe to total in a 1.5mg dose. While the rubbing alcohol dried on my leg, I said prayers of protection and focused on my intention: to clear stagnant energy that had built up from the last sublingual 5-MeO-DMT experience I had as well as the energy that had accumulated from emotional therapeutic work with others. I breathed deeply until my body was at ease and no longer trembling. I then injected the solution into my left thigh. Because it was such a small amount of fluid, the injection went very quickly and with little discomfort. I rubbed the injection spot to ensure even dispersal of the medicine before laying down and focusing on my breathing.
Over the course of the next five minutes (I had a timer going on my watch), I noticed a very gradual tryptamine tingle spreading over my entire body. It felt like one of the smoothest fades into something powerful I'd ever experienced. It reminded me a lot of the comeup for IM ketamine, though not in the feeling of the drug but rather the smoothness of the comeup time. Right around the five minute mark, I felt a significant deepening of the experience. My heart began to beat harder (not faster). I was aware that my heart was dedicated to LIFE, LIFE, LIFE. My heart is a warrior. I breathed deep into this feeling and I felt an expansiveness of my awareness. This awareness will go on...after the last breath, after the last heart beat. I wondered if I had taken a true 'death' dose. There were shadows of the fear I remembered from my first IV experience lingering. I wondered how much more it would build. In that moment, I chose to accept whatever was going to happen and I focused instead on my intention. Because I didn't feel imminent death, I began to visualize waves of clearing energy sweeping down my body from my head and out to my toes. All my muscles were completely relaxed and my heart was also completely at ease. I breathed deeper into the experience, allowing every cell in my body to be filled with healing light that seemed to be pouring in through the top of my head. All this while feeling quite present. I did not feel extremely altered nor out of control. I did not feel extremely altered nor out of control.
