Hello, I'm Wattapwn. I have been browsing the Nexus for a few months, and a couple of weeks ago made an account. I am a really shy person so I have been trying to think of the best way to introduce myself haha.
I am 22 years old and have used many psychedelics through my short life starting at about age 17. I had always heard about DMT growing up and how it can change a person for life, so I was terrified to even try the substance.
A couple of months ago, a fellow psychonaut and extremely close friend came over with a surprise for me. What he offered me was to try DMT for the first time in my life. It was a good day so I agreed, and he loaded some into a bong sandwhich style and told me to hit the whole thing. I did..
The next thing I knew my vision was sticking and overlapping itself as I exhaled and was torn from my body. I remember being above myself but my body was in a completely different realm. The experience was the most terrifying and intense thing I had ever experienced and all I could do was tell myself that I was dead and had fucked up.
After a few minutes I came out of my trip and reality slowly started to take shape around me once again. I sat there with my jaw dropped and looked at my friend. He just smiled and said "Yeah man". I spent the next 20 minutes laying on the floor soaking in what had just happened. I was more afraid than I had ever been in my life.
When I was 100% sober after about 30 minutes from time of smoking, I decided that this was not worth it and was way too much for me. The next day however, everything seemed so different. I felt so relaxed and enlightened much like after an LSD or Mushroom trip, only more peaceful for me.
It wasn't until probably two weeks after that experience that I tried it again, this time while rolling on MDMA. After my peak when I was chilling talking with my room mate, we decided to try a small amount of DMT that was given to us by our friend. We loaded up what we felt safe with (no scale at the time for mg) into a bong again sandwhich style and went at it. I don't remember being shot out of my body, but I do remember an extreme sense of comfort. The visuals were still profound but not near as intense as the first time, because I could still make out the room around me. I felt as if I was being "told" that everything will be okay from now on.
After that night, I decided to do a bit more research and my friend that had shared with me the first time pointed me to the DMT-Nexus. It was about a week later that I used Cyb's Hybrid Salt Tek to perform my first extraction. Since then I have performed about 15 small 50g extractions and have become extremely interested in the molecule.
My interest in being a full member of the Nexus comes from wanting to be able to discuss things with like-minded people in a civil way. I don't usually have much to say, but when I do it is nice to be able to have conversation with people that are intelligent and just as interested in these things as I am. The Nexus to me, seems to be the community where I can most contribute and learn from others. I browse multiple threads a day, few of which I can converse with other members. To be able to discuss DMT and other similar things in a mature and safe environment is all that I ask.
Thank you for reading and I hope that the formatting is ok
I can't wait to be able to learn even more and actually partake in the discussions on some of the bigger threads. Peace be with you! WP
