Hello everyone. I've been into psychedelics for some years now, and only recently have I fallen in love with DMT. I've tried it before, here and there, but it's pretty rare in my parts and only by chance was I able to extract a decent amount recently, and man have I been missing out. Thing is, it's rare enough that hardly anyone I know has experience with it beyond my own, and the friends I typically rely on for this kind of wisdom are just as green as I. I've even acted as sherpa for a few of my friends by now, and I'm wondering if I could be doing anything differently. Could I enhance my experience, what should I avoid doing, things of that nature. Likewise, I do believe I am experienced enough to provide some useful information for newer adventurers, so I can give as well as take.

welcome to the Nexus, SkyElephant, its good to have you

I was in the same boat as you a couple of years ago, no one I know has any knowledge or desire for this experience so I had to blaze my own trail, the thing tht made that trail blazable was the Nexus, everything you could possible want to know about the Magic is in these pages, so get reading


get them lazy buggers to carry there own bags . sorry.


if we don't know what your doing we cannot help, what kind of stuff do you think you could do differently? what kind of experiences are you currently having?

any way welcome and you might want to edit your post to remove the "obtaining DMT" bits, we encourage self extraction here for many reasons. I recommend you start your reading with the the attitude page, the FAQ and the WIKI

Also randomly browsing the Welcome Area for new members would be beneficial, it is absolutely Saturated with information. It is also common knowledge around here that the SEARCH function is amazingly underused (sometimes by myself) but it is a great tool, as the late great Albus Dumbledore once said "Help will always be given at Hogwarts, to those who ask for it." but in this case "to those who SEARCH for it"

Good luck, its great to have you here.

WELCOME

Welcome on board!

What's your story? Why are you interested in DMT? What's your psychonautic background?

You'll find a smorgasbord of delights on this site, from extraction teks to cutting-edge methods of administration.

Fill y'er boots and be excellent

Thank you, the lurking I've done tells me I won't be disappointed with this forum. I take it a lot of people don't use the SEARCH feature before asking questions? Just a hunch And sorry about the slip up, I can sometimes forget my etiquette as I am not used to this topic being discussed over the internet.

While my background experience may seem unimpressive to the objective observer, I like to remember two things when it comes to psychedelics, the first being that it is different for everybody, and the other that there is a limit to observe. I can only do so much without risking permanent mental trauma, a lesson learned through more than enough bad trips, and I respect that fact above all else. Therefore, I'm quite apprehensive when it comes to this activity, because I've become sensitive to a darker experience. But if I keep calm, carry water, and remember to breathe, I do just fine.

My first DMT experience was a bit unfortunate, I feel, because I was woefully unprepared, and the setting was less than desirable. I had only ever tripped on acid twice before, while experiencing zero visual distortions, and I was about to try mushrooms for the first time when a friend of a friend offered me a hit. His explanation gave no indication for what was about to happen, and when the smoke cleared I learned what it would look like if a wormhole opened up in the trees before me. Something something something, I don't remember, and I'm coming back to see the clouds have assumed every color and birds were falling from the sky, only to become cats and run off into the night. Then that calmed down and I never even felt the mushrooms affect me, I was so rattled. I did enjoy it, and still look back on it with fondness, but my recent experimentation revealed that I wasn't ready to truly appreciate it.

Before reconnecting with Demetrius (is that an acceptable pseudonym for DMT? I've grown fond of it), I've had a number of psychedelic adventures. With each trip, I gain another look into the world that lies just a few chemicals away, and I discover something new every time. I also gain tenfold the questions. What is reality? How do we distinguish real and imaginary? Does it matter if it's real or not? I feel like there are a thousand answers to these and every other question I have, and none of them will satisfy me entirely, but to not seek them out seems sadder than ignoring the truth.

That's basically it, leaving out trip reports and other stories I usually throw in, but to include all that is getting tedious these days, at least for one post, so I'll save them for other threads. Until then, thanks for the welcome, and I do hope I enjoy my stay.

I hope you didn't take offense at my post, I just really wanted to drive in the message with the search and browsing the forum, because 99% of the questions usually asked by new members, myself included, have been answered at least 10 times somewhere here, and I've noticed the older members don't like repeating themselves hundreds or thousands of times

I've learned a ton from searching and browsing, also a good way to search is to use google and just type dmt nexus before or after your search term i.e. "smoking methods dmt nexus" will bring up a lot of posts on the nexus because to be honest the nexus based search is a little wonky for me sometimes. not showing certain topics no matter how i arrange the search terms.
