Good morning and good day all

This forum looks very interesting but I've always been a little too nervous to join, but I have lurked occasionally. A little bit about myself, I guess I should start with my first encounter with psychedelics. First time I did psilocybin was when I was 14. Unbeknownst to me at the time, it probably saved my life as I was in with a poor group of friends and on a bad path. Psilocybin showed me that the girlfriend I had at the time was bad news bears as she morphed into the devil while I was peaking haha.

After that encounter with mushrooms, I stopped all drug use until I was 19 when I started smoking cannabis again. This time I was in a much better place mentally and with the best friends I could hope for. Over last summer, which was my 20th birthday, I did shrooms 6 times, LSD once and MDMA once. The following winter though were my first experiences with Dimethyltriptamine. I've done it 5 times now and it has pretty much crushed my ego and shattered my views of what is possible in this life. I wrote a trip report for every time that I've done DMT and I would love to share them here some time.

Well, I'm glad I finally registered here and I hope to be able to talk to you all at some point. Cheers!

Hello MorningWoods,

Welcome to the Nexus. That was a great Introduction Essay - thank you very much for sharing that with us. It's always great to have another lurker sign up and join our ever growing community.

I would love to read some of your trip reports. You can post them in First Steps in Hyperspace area, or even the Welcome Discussion Area.

Your early journey with mushrooms sounded amazing in the way you made some changes and decided to wait until adulthood to begin consciousness exploration again. Bravo, .

So, have you extracted your own spice yet? If so, how did that go? Which tek, etc? If not, any plans to do so in the future?

I encourage you to take a good look around this place - there's a lot going on here, and in my opinion, several somethings to interest anyone and everyone. I hope you will like what you find and become an active member.

Again, welcome to the Nexus.
