I felt connected to the universe, like I merged with a nebula. Coming back, I felt at peace and amazed, like I'd seen how everything connects.

Breaking through on DMT was the craziest experience I've ever had . Truly an astonishing 15 minutes

I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years, with so much anxiety not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms

started microdosing mushrooms in place of my prescriptions and the difference is night and day in my mental health and my anger i feel like ive become a better person best decision ive ever made wish it was more accessible to those that need

Psychedelics have the potential to make a significant impact on mental health issues like anxiety and depression. They've been incredibly helpful for me personally.

DMT has great potential, never had a bad trip with it.

There is massive potential in DMT and I'm glad that the awareness is being spread around. Definitely doesn't deserve to be a schedule 1 drug.

I am always happy to hear that psychedelic research is being done. There are a lot of people with neurologic problems out there that need help.

Psilocybin containing mushrooms save my life. They drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit

My first experience with DMT was at a park and I smoked it sandwiched in weed, back in 2020. I don’t remember everything, but I do remember first I started seeing everything look more kaleidoscopic, the grass, the trees, my skin. The grass began to look like an enormous metropolitan society for the insects. The blades of grass were like buildings. The bark on the tree was cut up like roads and highways and intersections. I closed my eyes and just saw geometric patterns moving. All of a sudden I was in a colorful room looking at the corner and each wall had these windows where the wall would open like a door and I could see out the window. Next thing I knew all the door-type windows on the wall were opening. I remembered I had my eyes closed so I opened them and saw the park. It felt like opening and closing my eyes was like popping in and out of different universes. At some point, I had my eyes open, and my entire vision was outlined and my vision outline was moving further away from me as if my vision was on a TV and I was moving further away from the TV. Everything in the real world was on the TV screen, and everything outside the TV screen was white. I moved back from the screen until I saw myself holding the screen. The moment I saw myself, I just knew I was god in that moment. At the same time I saw from both perspectives, me moving away from the screen and me holding the screen. I started to get pulled away from the screen and everything became white, it felt as though I were trying to pop through something. But something was holding me back from popping through, it was the glasses on my face, the watch on my wrist, the backpack on my back, the chain on my neck, the phone in my pocket, everything I felt physically was holding me back from popping through. I took all of these things off and put them in my backpack, I held onto my backpack strap with one hand and still couldn’t pop through because I wouldn’t let it go. I didn’t want to let go of all my possessions in a park where I didn’t know anyone. I had to make a choice. Let go and pop through and know what’s on the other side, or hold on to what I knew as reality and never know what was on the other side. I chose to let go. I let go of my backpack and let it sit in front of me. I still had my eyes closed, everything was white. Every second I was in that space got me closer to truth, oneness, purity, spirit, but at the same time became more uncomfortable the longer I went without knowing the status of my real life possessions. The longer I went in that space, the deeper I went into my spirit and the closer I became to being god. Sometime later, after coming back and going back a few times, I stopped coming back (aka opening my eyes to the real world), and I became true to myself without any external stuff. In that moment, I felt as though I was my spirit in its purest form and that my spirit was god. Everything was white around me, I saw everything from all angles with no restriction of physical head movement or eye direction, I saw everything and everything was just everything without anything. There was no time, no house, no family, no obligations, no culture, no society, I was in the purest form of what makes up all those things. Something that I can only describe as spirit and god, both of which are symbiotes in this context. Sometime later I came back to the real world and couldn’t go back to that space. Since then, my attitude towards life changed in so many ways and I began making choices I would’ve never made before. That experience really changed my life.

Never had a bad trip with DMT

I appreciate your willingness to cover all topics related to the body and health in such an objective, accurate, and well delivered manner. This channel is gold.

I have to tell you a story. I had a hysterectomy back in 2007 and reconstructive surgery for severe pelvic organ prolapse that led to chronic pain and severe depression. I was on the biggest cocktail of medications you can imagine for 15 years. I've never done drugs but when I heard of the potential effects of DMT I decided I would give it a shot. I could never be more thankful. I went from not working and bedridden to moving across the country and building a house by hand, in a matter of 3 months. It gave me a whole new outlook on life. I am no longer on any medications at all although I could still do with some pain medication if it were still available. The CDC decided to basically get rid of that but mentally I couldn't be better. I had one set back when I lost my mom but I did manage to get past it without any help. I am a firm believer that everybody should try DMT at least once. It was a lifesaver for me.

As a “one woman experiment”, magic mushrooms/psilocybin changed my life. It took one trip and I was reminded of what happiness was. That was more than the SSRI I was prescribed (Prozac) had done for me. SSRI’s don’t let you feel ANYTHING. Be it good. Be it bad. At a point I thought I was a sociopath because I felt nothing. That’s when I had my first mushroom trip and was reminded of what happiness feels like. Psilocybin actually changed my life. I do it once a year now, and that’s a hell of a lot better than being on SSRI’s for years. It keeps me humble, it keeps me in check, it lets me know my self worth, it tells me what I’m wrong in, it speaks the unconscious truth. I’m forever thankful for that.

Psychedelics is a tool in which the universe uses to connect with us, we understand without words We listen without distractions,we agree without arguments.

I noticed a mistake at 10:30. Psilocybin is actually the prodrug for psilocin, which is really the one doing the binding to the 5HT2A receptor.

Dmt changed my life. I've been sober off opiates for 2 years and have become much more compassionate towards my fellow man becauseof it. It's a miracle compound and I can't wait to see how much we learn about it in my lifetime.

The videos on this channel are awesome. You explain everything very well, the visualizations are great and you provide scientific sources / references to everything that is being said. Well done. I would love to learn more about neuroscience in the scope of this format. Cheers!

I think we should all experience DMT before we die. It is an amazing journey that will stay with me in a profound way. It is empowering exploring one's consciousness. It is not a recreational drug, rather a spiritual connection to the unhibited psyche.

This channel just becomes goated

We appreciate how well you've constructed your own insights. Keep working hard.

Please do one on ketamine. It saved my life and would love to know the exact mechanism of action in the brain. 🙏🏻

Babe wake up, the institute of human anatomy posted again

I love this channel! Im a first year x ray radiography student, and had never taken anatomy previously. Through your videos, I've learned so much. The visuals really help!

I had tried DMT on several occasions weighing the product judiciously and slowly experiencing its fractal effects and colorful pulsations of bright colors until I threw caution to the wind. Went for it took three immense hits that instantly took me from one reality instantaneously into a complete white out experience (No tunnel no transitioning no aliens) where I was just a small voice crying for help lost in an ocean of unimaginably bright white light. It absolutely terrified me until three days later something internally made sense of it. That losing who I thought I always was showed its undeniable strength in how my reality was constructed. It wasn't the void as much as the loss of self. I am still in awe of the experience and quite affected by it. I would appreciate any feedback from anyone who may have had a similar experience.

Didn’t know you were a Marine! I recently bought a Henson razor and I use it every morning, per the order. Oorah! Keep doing what you do. Psychedelics are generally safe and have so much potential to help so many people. Glad you’re bringing light to this. God bless you. Semper Fi brother. 💪🏼

I am 76 years old. I have joint pains, troubles from being diabetic type 2. I also had exposure to agent orange and radiation while in Nuclear Power school. But since I have to take nerve system style pain oills I feel somewhat better. However, never smoked anything and have only taken prescription pain pills. But because I mentioned needing more powerful for pain control a friend gave me a 500mg marijauna donut to try. I only ate about 1/8 or a really small bite of it. When it kicked in it was at first, just like being drunk. Then it moved onto a psychedelic trip. It was like mentioned in your video. I said NEVER AGAIN ! The trip scared me to death as I thought to myself during the trip that I was experiencing death! I was so glad to just finally falls asllep and awaken feeling normal again!

How can be classified as illegal, a substance that is also generated by our own body? That has 0 potential of addiction, 0 possibilities to lead a person into crime, but in fact has a lot of uses like medicine? I dont understand this society...

Being someone who regularly uses psychedelics, DMT is by far my favorite one. LSD would be my second favorite. A lot of people think that these "get you high" but that is not true. With DMT, you don't really feel loopy or anything, you do feel it and sometimes I wouldn't say that it's a "high" it's a very profound state of awareness and you suddenly have the ability to think on such a deep level and understand complex things that you would normally never even begin to understand. LSD was my go to when I was younger. And I firmly believe that it is the reason I have certain traits nowadays. It has been a very beneficial aspect in my life and I am eternally grateful for it.

I love the diversity of what you do here, thank you for the time and effort you put into this channel!

That crayon joke didn’t go unnoticed.. I chuckled. Bravo

Always glad to see and hear academic research on these substances. It's always interesting to learn of their effects on different segments of the brain as well. Since the research is still in its early-ish days, it'll be interesting to see if some of these substances aren't as effective as others for therapy or other treatments, or if length of experience becomes a factor (LSD's 12-18 hours seems maybe infeasibly long for many administered treatments, but DMT's very short time might not be long enough for some treatments). I'm just glad that research is finally being allowed, albeit restricted, as there seems to be some merit to their ability to help. In this day and age, mental health is more important than ever and I hope these research efforts lead to finding optimal substances, dosage and protocols to be the most effective in treating trauma, unhealthy patterns, addiction and other issues. And if prescribed in the future, their guarantee of a clean source as most, if not all illegal drugs have the potential for accidents or bad actors along the way making them questionably safe.

Your description was very accurate and it seems as though you haven't done it I highly recommend it it's a life changer

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxiety Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatmentPsilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms

I have tried it 4 times, the first time nothing happened, the next two times I just blacked out for 15 mins and had a horrid taste in my mouth from smoking it, the fourth time I used a vape, within seconds my bedroom turned into what I can only describe as the inside of an advanced spaceship, but that's all I remember. It's very strange stuff!

DMT holds the key to consciousness. It's great to see more studies being done on this mysterious chemical.

I love your channel. Always loved biology and chemistry in school. Your lectures are so fascinating. I learn so much. Thank you !

Ver cool talk. kudos for placing a reasonable amount of emphasis on safety and legality as well.

Yes. I recently did it, for my first time. And i was ushered through the waiting room by Shiva and Siddhartha. Then was birthed into infinity. I saw the sacred Geometry and could navigate infinity. It washed all my childhood traumas and all my pains away. I was everywhere and nowhere. Past present and future. Best experience of my 34 years. 🥹🥹 I was crying tears of joy for days. Just to have a glimpse of what I saw. It would take 1,000 lifetimes just to navigate it all.

I see a lot of people commenting that they had an amazing experience with these psychedelic. For me my experience was the opposite. I had an extremely bad trip with mushrooms and weed. I was in very safe environment, but yet I got extreme anxiety and fear. I never suffer for anxiety and fear. After only one of each of those trips NOW afterwards I'm get panic attack and extreme anxiety and fear. People please! Be careful, especially if your mind is already healthy.

Dude. It's 2023 and these are barely looked at. We should be shocked some of these things grow from the ground in nature. These are a key to life.

Love this channel (super insigtful, the content you guys deliver).

It’s interesting to think about where the physical brain becomes the experience of the mind.

Yes i've been waiting for this video for so long!!!

Great video, as a Psychonaught in 2024 I found this video honest and informative to people who do not understand DMT. What I will say is that other psychedelics are better suited to help/cure mental illnesses. I have seen people cured using 4aco and shrooms. It happens and research needs to continue. Dmt should be handled with the upmost care. We know about the other dimensions, the entities and how it ties in with setting and frequency. Dmt when studied might show us….. how our brain use to work…. When we were and advanced ancient civilization …. Thanks great Vid

Been waiting patiently for this video for a long time! 😅

DMT is the reason i taught myself animation to try and recreate some of the visuals... then my work went viral and became my new career. So yeah definitely a life changer!

Cautious as I am to hypothesise/infer in a field as complex as brain chmistry, I have long wondered if the "entities" that DMT users consistently encounter are in fact brain processes that, ordinarily, are outside of conscious experience. This video has only strengthened my suspicion. It's a fascinating field of study.

Wow! Thank you so much for talking about this!!

I love that you catch us up briefly with bits when explaining instead of referring us to another video to bolster your views. Thank you!

This is actually very true. I have had a few DMT experiences and it is an incredibly potent antidepressant that kills fear and anxiety in a matter of minutes. It is a very understudied drug and the scheduling is just ridiclious

The one thing about DMT is that the experience hits so intense that your body forces you to breath heavy slowly for 5-10 min

Very informative and educational!! Thank you for sharing!

Very informative. And I appreciate the recap on the other info too

DMT, LSD and psilocybin containing mushroom are just amazing. I could remember several years ago, I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was actually diagnosed with BPD. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges

Just bc the high is fifteen minutes doesn’t mean it FEELS like fifteen minutes. Time becomes completely distorted on DMT

Well done! Keep up the great work. All very exciting stuff!

To be honest I enjoyed the commercial most, the hairs that migrated to elsewhere is hilarious ..

About 15 years ago a friend and I went to a 'smart shop' in the Netherlands and had some 'Hawaiian mushrooms'. My experience was very much as you describe except that it didn't last for 20 minutes, it lasted for at least four hours! It was absolutely wonderful!!!

I’ve learned more on this channel than I did in health class back in high school. God bless these guys. This channel is a real gem 💎

Thank you for this video! Very interesting

I experienced everything from a god perspective and saw everything from the 4th dimension on DMT After my first experience on DMT, I became so much more social and forgiving of people and way less cynical

Thanks for another great video! And yes, I swear by Henson also! Another vet totally understands why it's so great! I was blown away by it! Anyways, it's really cool to see more research coming out for these psychedelics

Man.. absolutely amazing video. So many little tidbits here that are going to allow me to take my research even further

The points you made about some brain regions working together that normally don’t, that’s also been noted in LSD.

Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression,I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source here

I audibly cheered upon reading this title in connection with this channel. Let’s go!!

Great content brother! Cool stuff…

DMT might be able to spark new insights on how we can get rid of corruption in the FDA, CDC, and the pharmaceutical industry. 👍

I love getting info about DMT and good shaving peripherals in the same video!

Thank you for this video !!!!!

I love these videos!

Wouldn't this inter-dimensional being that all DMT users see actually be their "self"? If the region related to "oneself" is increased in connectivity to the lower and higher level regions of the brain, perhaps the brain would begin to start processing and interpreting its self, or, its consciousness, in line with the visual cortex, instinctively using (human?) anatomy or the closest recognizable thing for portraying our "self" as a separate entity, since it would also be connected to the region associated with information and decision making? I feel it couldn't be more spot on. Visuals, Oneself, and Cognitive abilities all falling into the same plane? That's got to be a perfect explanation for visualizing an "inter-dimensional" being. Now I'd really love to know if bipolar or schizophrenic people are more likely to see MORE THAN ONE inter-dimensional being in their trips, and if experiencing this helps them to manage it? Or if perhaps microdosing enables easier access or control of their various conscious selves by expanding that region to the rest of the brain?

I suffered a stroke 6 years ago I’ve been holding onto some dmt because of its benefits but have been nervous to use it!, but I’m not worried about it anymore!, I’m going to explore it!, thanks for your video

You had me dying with the crayon comment. I guess it’s better to be covered in them than eating them.

Really amazing video I love it!!

I got DMT in a vape and used it maybe 15 times across 2 months. I dont think ill ever be the same. I stopped vaping, started dong better at work, i bacame a more supportive husband. And i dont mean like these things just became easy to me or something. But like all the unsure feelings and anxiety kinda became a choice. Like i know i feel a certian way. But i know better. And i feel more confident in the knowledge that i have power over how i feel. Feelings just tell me what to pay attention to. Doesnt mean panic. That realization alone has been revolutionary for me. Life although still hard. Its much easier to make beneficial choices for myself and its definitely continuing to pay off a whole year later.

I still can't get over the fact that one can hold a brain in their hands.... That's literally a whole individual human, and could even be one of our family members . In your hands is Everything, to them it was the whole universe, and to the Universe, that is the whole person. Everything they ever knew and ever were and ever became. I'll NEVER forget my year in Human Anatomy & Physiology, we had a cadaver room which was donated by University of Michigan I believe, and I got to hold a human brain ... That is the most surreal and trippy moment of my life.... AND I ACCIDENTALLY VAPED DMT IN A STRANGER'S TENT AT ELECTRIC FOREST 😂

YESSSSSSSS FINALLY ANOTHER EPIC POST

i love this video, tahnk you for share all of this kind of information. keep going!!

I had a serious stroke in the PTO part of my brain, four years ago. I wonder if this would help my recovery.

Thank you so much for your work

People always say the trip lasts 10-15 minutes, when really it lasts 3-5 minutes.

11:32 A recent comprehensive systematic review in Nature concluded there was no evidence to support the serotonin hypothesis of depression - the efficacy of SSRIs in treating depression is likely due to 5HT receptor activation resulting in the activation of some unknown downstream target. Depression itself is not linked to decreased serotonin activity in the brain vs non-depressed. The mechanism of a treatment often tells you little about its cause. E.g Pain is not linked to decreased opioid receptor activation, even though increasing opioid receptor activation can treat pain.

During my first DMT trip, i can recall seeing areas of my brain light up and my neurons firing. Everything you explained in this video was exactly what I experienced

I am SO glad you did this video. We NEED to know more about the effects of psychedelics on the body/brain. They have the *potential* to be a miracle treatment/cure for so many things. We just need more studies to be done.

Psilocybin containing mushrooms save my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit

Just learned about the studies being done next year with extended DMT trips, what a coincidence.

Videos about psychedelics from professional medical experts are so rare! And so welcomed :D

I’m a recovering alcoholic, 11 years sober. I don’t do any significantly mind altering substances anymore but when I was young I did a lot of psychedelics, including DMT. They are the only “drugs” I’m glad I did. I feel like they opened me up spiritually and I’ve carried that openness my entire adult life. I’m also glad I stopped doing them when I did. Psychedelics aren’t without risk and a strong trip can be REALLY taxing. I feel like I learned what there was to be shown from them and I am very glad more research is being done on their effects. I’m certain there’s a lot of benefit to humanity from doing so.

Joe Rogan boutta start citing this video on all his podcasts

I'm trying my best to not be panicked by DMT. When I first experienced it I had an incredible time but lately I haven't enjoyed it because I can't relax 😢

Very interesting video. I was surprised that you did not include the natural elevation of DMT in the near death/death experience. For me this still has a more philosophical or even spiritual connotation then one of medicinal therapy, but anything that can assist ease suffering of medical conditions is worth studying. For example low dose or sub psychedelic doses of LSD are said to reduce episodes of chronic headache, so it will be good to see those studies progress.

Would love to see some detail on 5-MeO and the differences to N, N. Currently drafting up my contribution to a review paper on it and I think it's benefits might be more extensive than N, N.

When I did DMT it was like being in another world. I only had a small amount available to me and it is a very quick experience like you mentioned. Another person I know who has taken it says they saw other beings that they described as alien like. Don't know if that was a hallucination or maybe the DMT opened him up to seeing something that he couldn't before.

Thank you for shedding more light onto DMT. Smoking DMT made me realize just how bad vaping was for me and now I’m almost 30 days clean!

Dude i littereally love your content you dont understand. Its ETEREMLY hard to learn this stuff online as there few simulation of parts of the body and even when there is its missing parts or only explains one facet of a multifaceted system. THANK U even describe opposing or similar systems that not directly related to the content

Excellent video.. thanks for this
