Are DMT visions supposed to be real but in the future;

I tend to see things that aren’t there but have a potential to be apparently;

I also know before it tells me so is it some sort of loophole or is it just reinstating the fact that I’ve worked some stuff out without help?

They are very rarely different to what I can imagine;

I see the potential for this thread not turning out like you hoped.

What do you mean by “DMT visions”? Do you mean dreams, waking dreams, or hallucinations?

She made it into the right forum, which is more than some sober newbies manage to do.

DMT (dimethyltryptamine) is a psychedelic drug. Someone is taking the “Dopers” thing seriously again.

I’m surprised at all of you. Can’t you see the OP is a 13 year old boy from the Ukraine?

**SarahLiamJarive** , if a drug gave people the ability to see the future, I think you’d be reading about it in TIME magazine, not an internet forum…

But she doesn’t actually need the magazine – she can see what will be written in a future cover story.

I wasn’t fooled. 🆒 I’m a 66 percenter.

And I guessed the join date correctly as well.

That’s not true at all. Visions of the future, drug-induced or otherwise, are always 100% accurate.

They just happen to predict the future in some separate, parallel universe – not ours.

When a person can see the future, they lose all sense of TIME.

Will TIME still exist in the future? As opposed to, say, time?
