Hello Nexus.

I assume most introductions of new comers are quite mundane and not too often read, so I will keep this short and gracious as I am able. Considering the nature of this wonderful forum, I will supply a quick history of my own experiences. We can safely believe that I have taken forms of psychedelics, but I have not been blessed with the experience of DMT, yet. That is my purpose here, of course... to learn and to share, as others. As a youth I was quite foolish (go figure), and went from smoking cannabis all of three or so times before a close friend of mine gifted me with relatively potent acid. Forgive me for not being familiar with doses, I've never followed the scientific or more proper side of "drug" knowledge. I can say it was the ride of my life, especially being so inexperienced in such things. As many have reported, I felt a sense of horror and insecurity - not initially, though. I rather enjoyed my trip into this new realm of visualization, but having poor caretakers left me in moments of fear and terror when I lost my sense of control. I will express I had "caretakers" then because, well... I was all of fourteen years old, hardly developed in my mind in this dimension alone. Others to watch over me then was necessary, and their shortcomings (mind you, I have no hard feelings toward them, we were young) mingled with my lack of knowledge made for terrible experiences as much as I had wonderful.

Recalling the wonderful side of my experience through psychedelics (LSD, mushrooms and ecstasy - Orange Aliens, specifically, which have some form of psychedelic within them and quickly became a favorite of mine), and as I've matured into a spiritual seeker, I am beginning to believe it is time to step into the realm of DMT.

I will honestly admit I was quite surprised at the array of extraction types and methods of obtaining this precious substance, and also found myself quickly overwhelmed. For one walking a spiritual path to enlightenment and searching to understand realms outside of our obvious, physical condition here, I must implore directly of you... where do I begin? What would you suggest? I realize each journey is different through each form of use for every being, but any insight would be helpful - any more direct than my wanderings through the pages of this place.

Thank you...

Hi, welcome to the forum:)

most if not all post's are read and answered here at the Nexus.

This is a very resoursefull forum you have joined here, with a wealth of knowledge and many nice members to back it up.

As for the TEK for your extraction, read through all the TEK's in the wiki, and get an understanding of what is required. Noman's STB or panoramix's A/B are nice easy teks to follow. Once you have the basics down then you can look at using one of the non-toxic tek's.

Hope you find what you are looking for.
 
Welcome Ryinn, it's so good to have you :d The nexus is a special community

As to your extraction method, I would suggest reading up on the A/B teks, as A/B is the full length, top to bottom extraction method and will give you the best understanding of what you are doing and what chemical reactions are taking place. STB's tend to be quick and relatively inefficient methods for extracting, if you've already taken the time to walk the spiritual path and have been approaching DMT gradually, why rush the last phase? A/B is really not that much more to understand or carry out than STB and the benefits as far as yield, final product, and personal understanding are significant.

Welcome to the nexus and enjoy your wanderings...

Thank you both very much for the information. Most forum settings are lacking in the "reply to newcomer" areas, so I am most impressed to see that it is different here.

Yes, my approach to DMT has been gradual, my research flitting here and there as I've been tampering with the notion of whether or not to make that step. This isn't out of fear I may go mad in reaction or experience some ill effect, but a hesitation out of wonder what will I become, should I successfully break through, and how could I continue my day-to-day life should the impact be so profound. Musings, really, but each day seems to point in this direction a little more, though the minuscule hesitation means I have not yet meditated enough.

Sorry, long-winded. =] Thank you.
 
welcome, Ryinn....

...you have journeyed to an incredibly unique place!
as a relative newbie myself, i am in awe of the collective knowledge and experience in this community..the warmth and acceptance are refreshing...
...i truly believe that this is a calling...when you are ready to partake in "the remembering", you will know...and you will be amazed!...the trepidation is to be expected...like the nervous anticipation you feel as the roller coaster slowly climbs that first incline...:)
 
I agree... it is refreshing, and comforting after a fashion. I believe that rollercoaster is very near the first drop and it has me squirming... =] But more research must be done first...
 
Ryinn,

I want to also welcome you here to the Nexus. You sound like you are already becoming a valuable member of this community.

I want to re-iterate that Noman's Straight to Base (STB) tek is probably one of the easiest (no acidification, no heating of solvents, etc.) and most reliable ways to produce high quality DMT within 24 hours. I also agree that panoramix's European A/B (Acid to Base) tek is good, but would recommend Noman's first.

I want to thank you for telling us about getting dosed at age 14 by irresponsible "caretakers." Occasionally I notice a disturbing trend in various areas real and virtual that could be summed up as: The best thing for a young/teenaged mind to do would be to take a psychedelic substance. I strongly and vehemently disagree, as I believe the brain should be done developing (technically age 25 for most people) and the mind/ego have to be at least somewhat developed and stable before such experimentation begins. Anyway, thanks for letting us know how it was for you.

Again, welcome to the Nexus. Your hopes for and concerns about DMT are well founded, I believe. But, speaking for myself, it is so much more than I had hoped or imagined. Wonderful things await . ..

Peace & Love,
Pandora
 
Thank you for your kind words, Pandora. I absolutely agree that it is imperative for the brain to fully develop before being introduced to psychedelics, as for many (like myself) it can create a most profoundly negative effect on the youth. I will definitely look into Norman's tek. I've been fidgety trying to figure out my best possible course; this may be it. The lye and ammonia is raising a brow here, though...

DMT assisted you in stepping away from medication? I'm assuming by the signature, there.

Perhaps I'll have an experience posted on here as well in the coming months... err... provided my bills don't change radically... :lol:
 
Cool, just wanted to let you know I read your intro and am looking forward to reading your reports. I think it's very ironic that the prohibition of the psychedelics and the other illegal drugs have done nothing to prevent their availability to young people; instead, the primary effects of prohibition have been creation of a black market and the halting of all research into the healing potentials of the psychedelic chemicals.
It sounds like you're hearing a "call" from the tryptamine elves. If you keep your research up you'll be well rewarded!
 
Welcome to the Nexus Ryinn! The DMT Handbook might also be a good place to continue your research. I believe that the current consensus holds that one should not use the ammonia wash. I think everyone looks a little askew at the lye bit when they first come to it, and SWIM plans on moving to the non-toxic techs as soon as her current supplies run out. As gammagore mentions though, the toxic techs work very simply and provide a good learning environment for the principles behind the extraction. Like using HCl in a beginning chem lab at school.
 
Welcome brother! I have only been here a few months and can assure you this is much more than your average forum. It really is like a big enlightened and loving family. Just take your time and read through all the info you can before moving forward would be my suggestion, and dont be afraid to ask questions.
 
My thanks again, to all of you that have posted since. I've danced around the idea of that ammonia wash, and I may avoid it, being new to this anyway. =] I find my finger twitching on some of these threads so far, as I'm unable to reply, though I suppose time (and other posts) will alter such things.

And ah yes, elves... I have an intriguing story concerning them... partially why my interesting began to peak with DMT... of course I will expound upon that when the time comes (and resources)...
