An ego deathed person should be functionally identical to one who isn't, so it doesn't really matter.

If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.

I've never let ego death happen entirely but even approaching is a pretty intense feeling

I've never had it but I've only done shrooms a couple times. 4g dry and 2g dry. Shrooms are evil tho, probably a bad set tho.

Ego death is the cessation, in the intense mystic altered state, of the sense and feeling of being a control-wielding agent moving through time and space. The sensation of wielding control is replaced by the experience of being helplessly, powerlessly embedded in spacetime as purely a product of spacetime, with control-thoughts being perceptibly inserted or set into the stream of thought by a hidden, uncontrollable source

I've had that on drugs before. It was great.

Wonderfully written. Here's a trimmed version of how I described it in my story:

I don't know how I knew this but I could just feel that, in this place, time did not exist and neither did I. I became a conscious thought without the feeling of a body. It was a pure identity loss and felt exactly like a near death experience I went through when I was 10 years old. I didn't know who I was. I was a simple thought, thinking to myself "I'm just a thought. Floating here. Doing nothing. Just a thought. That's it. Nothing else." There were a few short moments when I actually did have my identity and I was desperately trying to float back to my body but I couldn't reach it. I didn't know if I would ever get back to my body and it was terrifying.

Yeah it's real. Kinda misleading tho, since I don't think the ego dies for good. You just kinda let go of it for a bit

As someone who does a good amount of drugs this shit sounds like people trying too hard. My experiences of the extreme are mostly dark and scary as fuck >_>.

Trying too hard? I was on DMT. You're not on my level.

I think ego death is a wanky concept made up by people that take a lot of psychs. I would know, I take a lot of psychs.

You're right. I passed seeing drug taking as a competition like a decade ago. Bragging about drugs is cool tho. Stay you.

Friend did on his first time doing mushrooms. Well, sorta - it's hard to say exactly what he experienced, but it kinda sounds like that.

My first time I kinda experienced something approaching it. Near the end I started feeling this profound disconnect between my mind and my body. For lack of a better description, I lost all familiarity with my body, my thoughts, everything - almost like "I" had been plugged into an already existing person and had taken over. Then I crashed hard back into reality.

No, it isn't. It changes your perspective on life.

Yes it is.

You can you tell it's coming from anything between a sensation of part of you going away, dissipating into everything as a whole to one of a feeling of a feeling of actually dying, yet accepting it and moving past life in a similar sensation

I have this periodically without drugs. It's called depression.

lol @ people saying it's a life changing experience

If you are honestly that amazed by DMT you are easily amused. It's essentially a rocketship ride through images in your mind while your conscious ie a waking dream

omg rly drugs do weird things to your brain? I should quit my job and grow my hair now
