Things people say as they approach ego death

29 posts in this topic

I've been extensively collecting data from reports of ego death from psychedelics on mutiple platforms and have encounted a lot of similarites of the egos reaction to it as its about to be destroyed and they relate to my own experiences. I find it funny though its like what do you think was going to happen, did you really thing you could be enlightened and still have 'control' over your individual  mind.

Common reactions

  • "OH NO what have i done"
  • "its ok you are going to come back down"
  • "oh shit so this is how it ends"
  • " Lets not do DMT again "
  • " I remember this , its so familar but I've never been here in my life before"
  • " I'm going home"
  • "OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I DONT EXIST"
  • "holy shit"
  • "this is it"
  • "this is absolutely undeniable"
  • "GOD IS REAL"

 

Do any of you resonate with these reactions, everytime I experience it, I feel my everyday sense of reality getting slightly weaker as the memory of it strengthens

Dont know if I experienced ego death. 

I had open eye visuals and as I snapped out of it my first thoughts were a little afraid feeling and then oh there is no Center. NO Center. Oh hmm what about my girlfriend? No Center. I exist as trillion pieces. But no Center at all

I felt lonely after the Trip. It faded away. I cannot really remember how I came to this realizations. It had no longterm effects after the trip

Was this an ego death?

I'm alone in the no time for the eternity! Horror

Another: I'm alone in the no time for the eternity but I'm not alone because I love myself! Bliss

With me, it's more like a muffled and bashful "Oh. Ooooooohhhh. Okay. Hmmmmmm, I see. Oh boy. Mmmmmmmm, right. Wow. Okay. Oh shit, here we go. Damn. Daaaaaaaaaamn. Okay. Ooookaaay. Ooooookkkkkkkaaaaaaayyyyyyyy..." --- Not very eloquent, I know. -_-

Do I have a body?

Do I keep God?

Do we always have bodies? (this was addressed to an entity that seemed like a lover, and also me)

Mine was:

I am absolutely nothing and I spend my life trying to shove things into this bottomless pit.

I was like

(beginning)"oh my god, what have I done. Well, I have to go through that."
"They we're all right, WTF!!!"
"Oooh, so that's what reality is."
"Holy fucking shit, my life is a movie."

@tsuki

Can you tell me how was your experience, or do you have a thread where you talked about it? Thank you.

It's pretty old so my understanding is different now. If you have any questions you can PM me.
