So I've been reading through this site for quite a few months now. I've actually spent so much time on here recently that I dream about reading posts and going over teks again and again.
After seeing what a great community this is I can't help but join and try and share my knowledge, what little there is in this realm, and my experiences as such has been shared with me for free here on this forum.
Now a little about myself...
I'm in my late 20's. I have smoked monumental amounts of cannabis for about 12 years now on a daily basis. Only in the past 6 months have I been slowly reducing my intake of it. It's not that I have to or that its severely effecting me negatively I just feel like a change of pace in my day to day brain functions and outlooks. Its been refreshing. I doubt I'll ever quit it outright but I've become very comfortable only partaking in it a couple times a week and in small amounts.
In terms of my experience with other drugs I have taken a lot of mushrooms. I mean a lot. I experimented with taking them on a very regular basis in small amounts, and in larger amounts every few days for months on end just because they were there and I had a lot of freetime. I tried them in all sorts of ways. Microdosing, megadosing, taking them in amounts so often the tollerance would be so high that a quarter would barely take me anywhere. In a 2 year time period I ate a little over 2.5lbs of dry mushrooms. I also did them quite a number of times before this, usually 4-8 months apart.
While this does sound rather extreme I must mention that I never had any experiences that seemed to take me outside of myself. The experiences with them that I've read about others having while on them are largely unexperienced by me despite my experience with them. I've never had more than powerful visual enhancements with my eyes open, slight geometry at times over laying things but not very strongly, and the usual feelings associated with them.
I was less trying to live on the edge of extreme and more just experimenting with them to see what possibilities they held for me. I enjoyed them while I did them and the prolonged use taught me a lot about myself. In the end I called it quits upon having my first actual bad trip. I say bad, but it was really just unpleasant. I got sick and icky feeling, threw up, felt much better and enjoyed the rest of it. However, that had never happened before. I always had a very easy time with them.
I took this as a sign from them that I had learned all I needed to from them and haven't touched them since. I wouldn't say I'll never do them again but I would say I have no desire to do them in the forseeable future. Not due to fear or anxiety
either. Just an understanding that I've gotten all I really can get from them in a learning sense and that's always been my goal in life. To learn.
This brings me to my desire to dive into the realms of dmt. While on mushrooms and even in some dreams I've felt like I was brushing against another world. An entire other reality with different rules and principles and entities. I have never seen it, but as far back as I can remember as a child I've gotten this feeling in certain dreams. Dreams where I've been going through holes in the reality around us into slightly different realities repeatedly, searching for the one at the edge where I can finally break into another dimension entirely unlike our own.
On mushrooms it was like I could feel it through a cloth being draped over me. A warm but stifling blanket between me and a feeling of something much greater. Yet again, never glimpsing it, just feeling it.
I heard about this wonderful seeming substance no less than 8 years ago while being a member at one of the many online drug forums. Once again years later I heard Joe Rogan talking about it in an interview and it blew my mind but only because I had only known him off of fear factor and didn't figure him for an open minded type. While his descriptions intrigued me I had no access in my part of the world to any aspect of it and the lack of people around me who even knew what it was prevented me from really thinking about it for quite some years.
Finally,a few months ago, a couple friends of mine aquired some and told me of their experiences with it and greatly peaked my interest based on their descriptions. I finally started seeking it out myself and found this great place.
Now, I never trusted street mushrooms and I was not about to trust a crystaline substance off the street. After becoming aware of how they spray so many things on commercial, but illegal, cannabis I didn't even trust it off the street. For many years now my mantra has been that if I can't make it, I don't need it. The older I get the more I aim for self sustainability.
Needless to say I am monumentally grateful that I found this site and that the people here are so well educated on the subjects I wish to delve into. It made this journey I'm starting so much better than any alternative I could imagine. Between the teks and the trip reports alone I was helped immensely but I was most grateful for the warnings and the lessons present here that this is a substance to be respected and delved into carefully and thoughtfully.
So far I have only tried a tiny amount on myself a couple of times to test my sensitivities. I'm always very cautious with new substances I'm putting into my body. I intend to keep track of each and every one of my experiences with it until I breakthrough in a thread I will open here shortly.
Thanks for this opportunity to be part of this fantastic place.
