Hey, like allot of people I started out with cannabis at the age of 17(21 now). I've since been a big herb fan since I have moved to another country this past September. In the time between i have only smoked a total of 3 weeks, 2 of which over christmas and one week 3 months ago when i was back in my home country. I have also known about dmt since i was 17 and have researched it allot since even reading every trip report on erowid. Anyway i am going to my home country in a week and a half. And when i am there i will also try dmt with friends for the first time(their first time too). Now i feel that i am ready for what it has to show me.

quick side question what would be better smoking in my parents house(they will be gone for the first 3 days after i land) or in a field under the stars?

Hello Rockroxx,

Welcome to the Nexus. Thanks so much for writing up that Introduction Essay. It's a great way to start to let to get folks to get to know you a bit better. And hopefully, via replies and other posts for you to get to know us.

It almost sounds like you have consumed cannabis but no other psychedelics and are now planning on trying DMT . . . Did I understand that correctly? If so, I would respectfully recommend starting with something other than DMT for an initial psychedelic experience, such as mushrooms . . . .

It also sounds like you are not extracting your own DMT and like perhaps your friends are not either. Planning on some other, lighter psychedelic experiences might enable you the time and wherewithal to do your own extraction . . . personally extracted DMT is the best, as your know what was done to it when and why. You have a sense of how pure it is, etc. Extraction teks for a plethora of plant sources can be found in the wiki.

Regardless, I'd encourage you to grow or get some mushrooms and try that first. Try various dosages up to and including some larger ones. This will give you a vague sense of what you may be in for - for me large mushroom doses have qualities similar to them to low to mid range DMT doses.

Since you've read all those Erowid reports you probably understand that DMT has a big body load and also that folks easily believe they are dead and/or out of body on it. Hopefully you have also read about some tactics for dealing with some of these issues, such as breathing, meditation, letting go/surrender, singing, etc. . . . .

I cannot tell you where to consume your DMT, other than to say, you should feel very safe. You may go out of body. You want your body to be safe if you are not in it. Though the trip itself is short on the clock it can feel like forever and can take a long time to integrate afterwards. I do hope you will treat it like an entheogen rather than a recreational high. Your call of course.

Okay enough of this. I do want you to feel welcomed here so sorry if it seems like I picked on you a bit. I just want folks to be safe and comfortable. . . .

Please take some time to take a good look around this huge place - it was assembled over a period of years by folks who really care.

Again, welcome to the Nexus.

Hey Pandora, thanks for your reply. I do have some experience with hallucinogens, including very potent salvia and truffels. The friends i am planning on taking it with also have plenty of experience with a range of hallucinogens.

It is true that we won't be extracting it ourselves because of the parental issues and my problem with not being the home owner not even to mention that i don't want to take dmt on a plane. And our supplier is a trusted one.

Yes i know all about the body load and the possible discomforts, though it is something i am willing to accept. I also have been meditating for over 8 months now.

It is something that i have been wanting to try and have been preparing myself for it for years now. I finally feel mentally ready for it. As of this moment i have been clean off all drugs including alcohol and caffeine for over 3 months, so i know i am in my right state of mind to properly decide to do it or not.

Thanks again for your reply.
