Hi !

Firstly, thanks for this site.
So here we are, and I have to introduce myself. I'm 24, living in Europa.
Since I'm not going to expose all my life here, let's see what is my experience and why I would like to be a full member of this forum.

Four years ago, I had my first psychedelic experience with cubensis (3g) in a right set and setting. I learned many things about myself and I knew i will reiterate the experience.
I started reading all I could on the subject. One day, I made a big mistake (I guess we all do), I didn't give the product all the respect it needed, and I learned the hard way what it implies to be a fool. I learned to be very very cautious whith what I'm doing, and above all that this caution attitude is just self protection.

I met some great people whith who I could talk about this experiences, do some more, always in the right way. We are not partying fellows, we find our pleasure in just sitiing, talking, sharing.
Anyway, this lead me to other psychedelics, such as 2C-B, MDMA, and LSD. Going further in the knowledge, I had to discover Salvia and DMT.

Ok let's talk briefly about salvia first. I can't handle it, I tried to smoke it 5 times, and I lost my mind each time. Usually, with all the products I tried, I have a quite good self control which is usefull when things start to be creepy. With salvia, I'm blown away, not even remebering my name, or where I am, and I can't get anything out of it. The integration is very hard, this plant is still a big mystery for me and I'm not going to try it again soon.

Now, DMT. I prepared myself for a long time before vaporizing it. I read of course Dr Strassman's book, anything I could find on the internet and ordered a vapor genie for the day I will be ready. It finally happened, and it was a failure. I don't know if the vaporgenie was defective or if it was me, be I could't vap it. So, I prefered the bong way. I know it's not recommended, firstly for my lungs, but I had a breakthrough with no problem. I would be very happy to share some experiences I had when I will be able to post on the parts of the forum still locked for me now.
I talked about integration earlier. With DMT, it's not easy at all, but it gives you the opportunity to really use your brain with the right questions. No answers, just new questions over and over, and I'm fine with that. When you meet God, do you really have an answer when you're back in this world ? Not sure about that.
I also travelled to Peru and what it implies .

So why I would like to be all full member ? To share my experiences, talk with you guys, the more I read the more I realize that this forum is plenty of very intelligent people, and since we don't meet this intelligence at every corner, this place is perfect bringing them together.

2 words about my hobbies : I'm fond of chess, I read quite a lot, make some music (acoustic and electronic).

Sorry for my english, it's not my native speech.
Thanks for reading, and I hope I didn't annoyed you !

Hi Ashakma,

Bong is no good for DMT, you want to get your vaporgenie going well. 2 screens and you put the flame level on the entry of the top hole or slightly in a bit, breath in slowly.

Salvia is intense in that it wipes out ur memory and that is scary for a lot of ppl becuz all they have is there memories and that is the foundation of their existence. I found this and then just started vaporizing plain leaf which is actually fcking heaps cheaper especially in europe, u can get it shipped from somewhere in the uk for cheap too I am sure. It definately is worth a try as it can show you a lot, I think just as much as DMT but in a different way.

DMT is a bit more comforting but sort of bizare like visiting an alien while salvia is like visiting psychotherapist who just administred a deleriant to you

I also think u should try your music under the influence of both substances, get some good headphones and a headphone amp and close ur eyes (mindfold) and explore audio in depth as you are a musician and deserve that much.

As for meeting good, it doesn't seem ppl on here can take too much back from hyperspace but they take back a little bit that is enough to help them have a new perspective on life among other things. Perhaps repeated doses will increase what u discover and take back. Even recording yourself on video or audio might help u remember and can say things out loud to remind urself.

Hello and welcome!

Thank you for that introduction, it sent positive vibes in all directions! I think it is definitely all about sitting around and discussing with friends rather than constantly partying and gaining no insight from psychedelic use, IMO. Since I don't get a whole lot of that in my everyday life, I find myself here often, learning, growing, and enjoying the atmosphere!

A bong is fine for DMT, btw, it just depends on what/how you are smoking. The sandwich method, not so great...Ash or herb bed but no sandwich...not so great. Both work but take some getting used to and generally a lot of spice is wasted in that manner.

However, smoking enhanced leaf or changa out of a bong is wonderful! In fact, there is a catch phrase within the Nexus: "Changa in the Bonga!" All you have to do is cherry the top of your dose lightly, inhale long and slowly as much as you can in one toke and then right before you run out of lung capacity ---->>>> pull the cone and suck in the rest. Hold for 15-20sec. Exhale. If you did not finish desired dose, repeat the above. I have broken through many times with this method in a standard 10in water bong.

Anyway, glad to have you on board! May you find everything you seek!

PEACE

Oh you know, this bong story is just an issue for my lungs but I'm still smoking cigarettes, so my lungs.... But concerning dosage, method, I have no problem, I broke through like 5 times this way. Now I just want to quit smoking and use the money saved to buy a real vapo.

For the salvia, IMHO, it's like every product, it depends very much on the person trying, the contact with the molecule is influenced by the way your mind is shaped.

I enjoy trying my music while tripping, not to be satisfied of myself but to see where are the problems, what sounds good and what doesn't. I usually take half an hour during a trip to work on it, during the plateau

DMT convinced me of one thing : immortality. Of course, I still have a part of doubt, but the way I apprehend the world changed dramatically since I experienced this extra dimensions !

thanks The Grateful One for the reply

I usually use a grid, just a point of tabacco, and the spice ont top of it. I light it from far far away, and inspire very slowly, until the column is full of smoke. Then, I take my breath, and finally inspire all the smoke. Breakthrough garanted this way (for me at least)!
