Clueless, why it won't work...

Hi Fellas,

so I tried I-Doser with high hopes, but by now I am really disappointed.

I am using rather good Sennheiser Earphones, dim the light, relax ... the works.

But basically it ends up, me sitting and listening to noise and wobbly sounds for half an hour. No feelings or experiences out of the ordinary.

I started with Marihuana (the dose) and French Roast, after reading this forum for a while, I tried "Starter" ones like Quick Happy.
Still ... no effect.
Smoking a joint and drinking a cup of coffee would have worked far better ;-)

It's not that I don't believe in it, plenty of positive experiences here.
It just won't work for me ...

Did this happen to anybody else in the beginning (I have around 10 sessions now in total) while starting to work later ??
In this case, can I expect it to just work from some future time on, or will it get slowly better and better ??
Or am I just lost ??

Thanks for any ideas ..

Some people report smoking some weed before listening to a dose increases the dose's effects.

Here are some tips:

- Try just listening to as many doses as you can while you're on your computer without really concentrating or hoping for the effects. The more you do this, the easier it should be to get effects.

- Try to do it when your in a good mindset for just sitting back and relaxing. Hopefully you shouldn't get bored or think about what better things you could be doing with your time.

- Listen to Brain+ or Reset before you do the dose. I find that doing something that requires concentration while listening to brain+ is a good way of doing this, it should also help you with what you are doing at the time (but don't make it something that is frustrating).

- Make sure you are nice and relaxed when you finally lie down and take the dose. Try counting from 1 to 100 and back (or whatever numbers you feel like) before you go.

Hope this helps.

@Ness
I'll try that when I get a chance to ;-))

@sharperguy
Thanks, I'll try that even sooner. I haven't tried Brain+ or Reset yet.

I found the counting-method on the sticky in this forum and tried it meanwhile.
Now, it's hard to say but I THINK I felt SOMETHING.
Not an Outer Body Experience or Marihuana as advertised. Not even close to it.

But some sort of real deep relaxation, which might as well be related to the late hour or the hypnotic effect of counting backwards.

Anyway, I'll keep trying ...

Thanks for now
