You're talking about vaporizing the crystal and inhaling it or injecting it, yes? Not a chaga or ayahuasca sort of preparation? I'll assume you'll be doing just DMT with no MAOI for the rest of this post.
Also, disclaimer: I've never done any psychedelics. Just studied quite a bit.
This is basically cliche at this point, but, set and setting.
Mindset. Meditate. Learn to let go. Learn not to try to control. That will come in handy during your trip. The less you fight it, the more positive it will be.
Setting. Make sure your plans are well set up ahead of time so you don't end up worrying about things down here on the material plane while you're tripping. Have a trip sitter. Trip somewhere beautiful and comfortable. Have a trip sitter.
Aside from that, learn how to actually get the drug into you properly. You don't want to burn it, just vaporize it, and that requires doing it right with the right kind of device. Your trip sitter can help, especially if they're experienced.
Godspeed. No pressure, but if you're ok with it, I'd love to see you report back after.
You know your stuff for someone who hasn't partaken.
I've done ayahuasca but not regular old DMT. Those are the main points I would have suggested.
Adding to that, allow plenty of time to process the experience after the trip has ended. I journaled it, which helped make sense of it all, especially parts that felt disconnected from normal perceptions.
Music you vibe with will help too. Some of the music that accompanied my experience was a bit overwhelming and magnified parts that I didn't enjoy. I had to take myself outside to ground again (if you can call communing with the stars grounding).
