i don't understand why so many people describe their DMT trips as bad trips feeling terrible, etc

for me, every time I take DMT I feel very very very excited, the more I take the more euphoria I get, even like very high doses

OK, maybe worth mentioning that I have a huge psychedelic(and not only) experience, like hundreds of acid trips, and like in my life i'm very accepting and chill, lived around the world

OK, i answered my own question, when people describe their bad trips, they always mention that they try to fight against "it", but like I realized that you don't fight "it", this "it" always wins, and the harder you fight "it" the header "it" will beat you

everyone have a good trip ❤️

The thing is everyone has varying experiences with life and psychedelics (or lack thereof). It has more to do with where you're starting from than how you react, think, or act on the psychedelics sometimes.

i really don't understand how it can be possible, every time a trip starts and finishes I laugh a lot from confusion that some people feel bad from DMT

like when my room breaks down into realities and parts of my body start to disappear from the history of existence my thoughts are "this is beautiful and interesting, what are those people talking about"

The weird part of experience is that we can't truly understand an experience that is disparate from our own in the first place. It can be so unreal and ego piercing in both directions, and everyone has a different baseline and propensity for freaking out.
