Scared for the first DMT trip

[JJfromSwitzerland]

So soon I am going to have my first DMT trip. I am looking so much forward to it. I wanted to do psychedelics for such a long time but I was too scared.

I will prepare properly and will have a trip sitter I trust and a good set and setting. 

However, I am scared that I will get a panic attack or something during the trip. I am not scared of ego death or something like that.
The reason why is that if I smoke weed, I tend to get anxiety and I used to have panic attacks when I was younger which now transformed itself into a milder form of pure OCD. Even when I had MDMA last time I felt anxious and uncomofortable the whole time

The main goal I have actually with this trip is to solve my OCD issue. However, I am scared of panicking. Basically I have anxiety of getting anxiety.

Can you give me any advice on that? Should I just leave it? But I wanna do it so badly...

I would advise to do it when you feel excited and feeling good about it, you will gain far more out of the experience this way.

Go for it, you’ll be fine.

So just a little update and summary from me after the trip:

It was 3 days ago and an amazing experience.

While tripping I experienced a lot of discomfort but also love on another level.

My visuals were long arms waiving around me. First in red and black and then in lighter colors after I openend my eyes quickly and then closed again.

I felt more discomfort and fear than comfort overall and I wanted that it ends soon, however, when I came back, I felt soo much lighter than before.

The next day I felt so present. I was going out on a day market with friends and I felt so present the whole day. So present that girls I talked to for 2 minutes wanted my number and contaced me for example because I was in such a good, calm, peaceful and present state.

Then I went to an art musuem with a date. The musuem was amazing, I saw art from a different perspective than before and really enjoyed it.

Some of that lightness and present is still here but not as intense as right after the trip.

It's time to explore further for me.
