[ WP ] You 're bored so decide to have a conversation with yourself .

`` Hello me'' 
 
 `` Hello yourself'' 
 
 `` You realize you're doing that thing again, right? Where you just kind of drone on in your own head? You know it'll end badly.'' 
 
 I took another hit of the packed pipe full of weed, giggling to myself for a moment as I continued on my inner monologue. 
 
 `` C'mon, you act as if it's a terrible thing to talk to yourself. Where's the real harm done in it?'' 
 
 `` Well, for starters, I'm pretty sure that's how someone ends up in the nut house. You know, why am I even having this argument with you? You're just me after all.'' 
 
 `` You know as well as I do that it's because of your silly fascination with seeing things from all angles; Hell, why do n't you just go the full monty and talk to all of us today?'' 
 
 I sat up as my conversation with myself brought my mind wandering towards the DMT sitting nearby; Not as open and in view as the cannabis that was frequently used, more hidden away. 
 
 `` You sure about that? I mean it's been months since you last visited...'' 
 
 `` Oh I'm pretty sure. You know very well it's fun, you love it every time and want to rant and rave about it to everyone.'' 
 
 Anxious, I felt my heart pump a little faster as my mind contemplated going through with it. My hands reached down to the slight hiding spot and pulled out the kit; DMT in a little jar, a scale for weighing it, and a pipe specifically made for the most efficient intake of the chemical. 
 
 I took off the cap of the little sand-colored grains and placing my nose over the container took a brief sniff and shuddered as dopamine filled my brain from that scent bringing back memories of past trips. 
 
 `` Mothballs. What a weird smell...'' 
 
 I thought aloud with no response, the other me focused on the task at hand as I weighed out my usual'dose' and packed it into the bowl. 
 
 Sitting back, I struggled for a few minutes to get comfortable. I lay down, I throw a blanket on my lap then take it off, I prepare myself. Finally, heart racing, I sit up; One hand holding a lighter, the other the pipe. 
 
 `` Calm down... Calm down. Got ta relax for this...'' I spoke to myself. Again, no answer. 
 
 I took a few deep breaths. I counted to 10. I counted to 10 again. Once I felt my nerves were calm and steady, I took one final deep breath, exhaled it all out, put the pipe up to my mouth and sparked the flame, the click of the lighter resounding in my ears. 
 
 `` Here we go.'' I thought silently as I steadily inhaled. I breathed in slow so as not to burn the chemical and properly vaporize it. I took a long full first hit and started counting to hold my breath. By 5 seconds I felt myself losing perception of time and exhaled. 
 
 Quickly I lit sparked the lighter again; `` 2nd hit, time to finish this bowl'' I thought, rushing to finish vaporizing the already-heated chemical, feeling that noxious plastic-y smoke fill my lungs. As I was nearing the end of my lung capacity, the flame of the lighter twinked like a star and started splitting into fractals. 
 
 Hurriedly I put the pipe down safely on the table next to me and once again tried to count the seconds to inhale. 1 second. 2 seconds. 3 seconds? Or was that 2.3? 7 seconds? I can not begin to tell at this point and exhale in the same motion of laying down onto the pillows, eyes closing and smoke escaping my lips as a grin appears over my face; Though I'm not aware of it. 
 
 In the first second, I feel impossibly heavy, as if I just sank through the bed and straight through the Earth. In the second second, my vision was flooded with whiteness unlike any other I've ever seen. In the third second my world exploded. 
 
 Colors flooded my vision in infinite fractals, as if being shown a picture, then suddenly I was shown another image. And another. And another. Rapid-fire as if being shown a slideshow as a slow carnival-music theme started to play in the background and a white square in the slideshows like a dead pixel appeared. The pixel grew and grew spiraling larger until it overtook my vision. 
 
 Then I was 15 seconds past my second exhale. 
 
 Time crawled to a slow. I was suddenly on a spaceship walking along with an important figure dressed as if a captain of a ship. I could not see his face nor bothered to look at him as we were walking towards a board room and I got sat down at the table. 
 
 8? Or was it 10? Either way, the figures that were there, I could not discern any faces nor look directly at them. I just knew they were there and they were talking and expressing ideas I could not begin to comprehend. I was a child at a table of geniuses. 
 
 After the brief meeting the initial captain hurried me off to a room next to the board room, where he showed me what looked like a globe featuring a planet unlike any I'd ever imagined. Then another. A slideshow of different planets with many different kinds of life and lifeforms living on them, over and over. 
 
 As I was watching them, the vision that seemed so real slowly got a bit darker. I felt my body. My body? I had lost track of it as I left it behind all those hours ago. I felt gravity slowly begin to press on me and I slipped downwards as the captain bid a hurried fairwell, wishing me to visit again soon. 
 
 The weight kept pulling me down. I could almost picture my'spirit'-body being pulled back down towards my physical, and in this time, my other voice spoke back up. 
 
 `` So, did you enjoy it?'' 
 
 I cracked a smile; Slowly I was regaining control and understanding of my body again. `` Of course I did, my god there's just so much I want to say to everyone. Anyway, down to business...'' I thought as if speaking, knowing in this minute or two of coming down I was more in tune with my body. 
 
 At that moment, a third and fourth voice spoke in. We discussed issues we've been having. Worries about family, friends, work, we all spoke different viewpoints, ones completely different from the normal two voices, and worked out solutions. 
 
 After the busy discussions of life issues, the third and fourth voices went back their own way as me and myself floated back to the last strands of our body. Our breathing coming to realization with some panting gasps. 
 
 `` Now, you going to go another few months without taking it again or will you finally learn that there's a lot you can get from these little talks?'' 
 
 I twitch my arms and legs, stirring from my psuedo-slumber and sitting up with a wide grin, euphoria flooding me as I think over the events that just occurred in under 10 minutes. The other beings, the brightest white, the fractal color slideshow, the vast planets and lifeforms, the business-like analysis of life issues being sorted out in front of me. 
 
 `` Ah shut up ya ditz.''
