What's good everyone?

I've been a member of the nexus for about a month, but I've been a long-time lurker (years).

I've been interested in DMT before any other psychedelic compound ever since I watched DMT the Spirit Molecule (although I dislike the movie now) about 6 years ago.

Over the past five years I have eaten ounces of mushrooms, more acid than I care to count, and smoked more weed than I could fathom. Just recently I have re-discovered DMT with a friend of mine, and we did an extraction on Acacia and made Changa. Before that I had tried Pharma and changa from other people.

Pharma changed the way I look at life. I felt like I died that day, in the best way possible.

Now here I am trying to experience everything in life that I can, including more Pharma, changa, and freebase trips.

Recently I have been taking LSD every week regularly, but it hasn't been resolving anything for me, but rather just stirring past events up in my mind that are better left in the past.

DMT, in its myriad forms, ends up resolving issues for me and leaves me with a sense of peace instead of just pure exhaustion.

Heres to more death and rebirth with the molecule!

Hi Isaac,



That's your problem right there. You need more time to process what gets brought up by the LSD than a week, and at least wait until your tolerance has been cleared before dropping again otherwise you are just wasting it. While I've broken this rule of thumb myself, I'd say wait at least 3 months between trips if you are doing it for soul searching purposes. Remember, it's only a catalyst to change, not a delivery system.

Also, if it is stirring up past events, then it is likely those that need to be resolved.

Anyhow, congrats on flipping from lurker to poster!

Thanks for the reply Shanghigher,

My problem with the things LSD brings up is it is stuff that has happened so far in the past that I literally can do nothing about it, or it's stuff that's just better left alone; like my habit of over-sexualizing everything.

I have no idea how to integrate a message like that, and it keeps coming up, so I guess it's something to work on...

That's why I think pharma would be better for me at this point than more L... At least like pure harmalas.

Yeah, I get that. From my perspective, some of the things I uncovered aren't things I can actively change now. They are in the past. I had a pretty dark time of things growing up, and it continued to affect me well into my twenties. All I can do now is change my perspective of things. I found that LSD helped me remove the grip my past had on my present so I can be the man I am today instead of someone controlled by things I cannot change.

Personally, challenging that and allowing myself to think abstractly and outside of my own mental box with the assistance of psychedelics has had a profound effect on me, and I consider that central to the healing properties a decent trip can offer. For me, it was very much a question of wanting to challenge my own thinking and ingrained thought process and going in purely for that purpose, and then spending plenty of time afterwards thinking about it whilst undertaking other activities to improve my self-worth (I normally leave quite a long space of time between trips).

And yeah, it's definitely worth working on. These things come up for a reason

What sort of dose of LSD do you do?

As for DMT, it definitely also offers its own benefits. I'd say the big difference is a decent dose of LSD gives you the time in that headspace to do some pretty high level thinking about your life, while DMT shows you in a snapshot what your life is worth and gives you a strong connection to the universe which you can then funnel into your life.

I've done up to 400mcg with almost no tolerance. I'm thinking maybe I need to try a higher dose like 500-600mcg? Low doses just fill me with delusional thoughts like going into a church and telling the congregation that they should stop giving money to the conglomerate/corporate church system and instead to what Jesus actually taught in their book; loving everyone and helping everyone. Things that are better left in my head haha. Other times I feel like I'm on the prowl for sexual adventure even though I'm happily married and don't really NEED any more sex than I already get (as much as I want pretty much lol).

Haha, 400ug is my normal dose. I have to say, 400ug is normally enough to put me on my arse for several hours, so even if my thoughts wander, my body is too content connecting with the universe to go to a church

On the religious aspect, I try to have as little to do with the faithful as possible and avoid any confrontation on the matter. Raised as a roman catholic, then went atheist, then decided you'd need to be a God yourself to definitively prove there is no God, and decided pantheism was by far the most logical position to have on the matter. These days, I don't talk religion as the confrontation will only reinforce their position according to psychology, and will only bring it up if I'm directly challenged which is very, very rare. Therefore, while I do believe Jesus was the world's first socialist, I do my best not to antagonise

As for the sex thing, I don't think I've thought about sex once whilst tripping (the disappearing genitalia doesn't exactly make me feel like Mr Lover Lover ). But hey. Everyone's different. Perhaps just funnel your sexual desire and love back into your marriage.
