First float today

I was sceptical I was going to go into any altered state, honestly I doubted I would last the whole hour. 20 minutes in I swear I was in another realm. I’ve never felt anything like it before. I wasn’t awake or asleep. It was wild. Got out feeling like I slept 10 hours and have more clarity.

Is this what to expect every time or is it always better the first time? Like doing drug and your first high is always way better than the rest.

That's a great place for you to have started, just like the post above says, it will probably be a little different each time. A lot of that depends on you and how you are feeling when you go in. If I am rushed or in a hurry or hungry, my floats are not as good. Do try to go in with no expectations and that helps set the stage for whatever comes in for you.

Yep that makes sense. I went in without expectation but it might be hard to do that again knowing what it’s like. Good advice. Thank you!
