Greetings Nexians!
Firstly I would like to thank you for being such a valuable resource to me over my ten year psychedelic career so far. No other forum has such consistent quality posts and information. Odd to think that I know some of you older members in here by your handles and avatars from having dipped in and out of here since 2010! I will tell you a short bit about my history of psych use and why I've now decided to join the site.
Most of my psychedelic experiences have been with various RCs, although I will put a pin in that while on this site. I have had strong experiences with acid, disappointingly weak experiences with mushrooms, and I have tried a few random things like HBW seeds, morning glory, brugmansia etc. Sadly I was only ever able to get hold of DMT once so I have only smoked it twice, neither time enough for a breakthrough. I have only achieved breakthrough "level 5" experiences using ketamine, which if taken via an instant ROA feels very similar to how DMT users describe being "catapulted into hyperspace at high speed" but more like being melted and sucked through a portal into the nether realm. I have probably k-holed into space hundreds of times in the few years I have been doing it and my interest has been piqued in the parallels between strong DMT experiences and strong K experiences.
I have limited experience with growing mushrooms from spore, as well as growing san pedro and peyote for a couple of years (still never tried the cacti, I just love the idea of putting years of love and care into the plant in exchange for the experience I will eventually have). I've also grown a few daturas (don't panic, I don't eat the seeds I smoke the comparatively weak flowers). I'd like to expand my currently tiny entheogenic garden!
As I mentioned, I've only been able to get hold of DMT once. Unfortunately the price of housing has increased tenfold in the last three decades in the UK so most people under 30 live in a flat share situation, which is what has prevented me from extracting. However now I am moving into a more private living situation and I'm feeling "the call" again which brings me to why I have joined the nexus - I feel ready to attempt a DMT breakthrough again and I now have the means to perform my own extractions, so I have basically come to read through everything I can find on this site about different teks and ask for support if I need it.
Thanks again guys, I hope there's something I can contribute even if it's just experience stories!
