Your experiences may not be directly associated with everyone elses and vice versa but I do agree that your chances are obviously greatly increased with DMT since it in its natural form is highly potent.
Ugh, Salvia :nervous: I've experienced ego-death with salvia about 3 times, and that was 3 times too many. Not fun.
All the others, especially LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline, I think would last too long to be enjoyable. I've never done mescaline myself, but I don't particularly care for shrooms. The only way I can describe it is that they feel...dirty? I feel poisoned and tend to be sick to my stomach for large portions of the trip (Yes, I know psilocybin isn't poison as many people posit).
Obviously there are different ways of achieving ego-death (sometimes without any drugs at all) but all I'm saying is that it's much more difficult and you'd have to take a ton of any of those others (other than Salvia or DMT). Actually, I'd say the easiest and most sure-fire way to achieve ego-death would be Salvia extract. Anything 20x and up has almost guaranteed it for me, but again, :nervous:

Agreed... Ketamine was a very interesting experience.

I've never been a huge fan. Interestingly enough, I had my first experience with nitrous oxide (other than at the dentist) the other day, and that brought me as close to ego-death as I've been without actually experiencing it.

US media pays more attention to a ex junkie than they do of Killed US Soldiers in Afghanistan ..

Update: Charlie Sheen's first live entertainment show in front of a crowd is probably going to be his last. By the end of the thing, a ton of people had walked out and he was being drowned out by boos. Here are a couple of snippets from an Entertainment Weekly reporter live blogging from the show:
quote:
9:10 — Sheen’s promises are largely incomprehensible, though at least seem intentionally so: “Freedom from monkey eyed…sweat-eating whores. Freedom from the dour and sour taste of malignant reproach… I’m a giant and leaky bag of mayhem.”
9:13 – Sheen: “They took my awesome children… They took my sometimes bitchin’ job… And when they thought there was nothing left, they tried to take my heart and brain and titanium spine. But they could not.” Audience growing restless. This show is all pump-up, no narrative.
9:15 — OK, nobody understands a word Sheen is saying. “”Is anybody else as confused by this s— as I am?” he finally asks. There are roars from the crowd. “I wrote every word!” Later, a cab driver tells me that it’s about this time that angry fans began walking out of the theatre.
9:20 — People start booing Sheen. Not playing around, but actually booing him. Sheen yells, “I already got your money, dude!”
9:23 — We are watching video of Charlie Sheen playing Call of Duty.
9:40 — Sheen says he’s going to “Tell some stories about crack. I figured Detroit was a good place to tell some crack stories.” This comment, not surprisingly, does not go over well. “Show of hands who here has tried crack?” Very few people raise their hand. “I don’t do crack anymore, but this is a good f—ing night to do some crack.” The audience boos.
10:03 — The show is now an unmitigated disaster. There’s a fairly steady stream of people leaving early. Attendee Chris Acchione, a self-described Sheen fan who traveled all the way from Toronto for the show, says his entire mezzanine row walked out. “He’s making a fool of himself,” he says. “Is there a bigger loser in the world? He’ll be begging Chuck Lorre for his job back by the end of the week.”
:stongue:
And here's a video someone took at his show. Keep in mind, this is before it all went bad. I may have hung myself if I paid to see this.
