Rising Star
I am new to this community, but by no means new to the topics and information presented. As a matter of fact, I have been observing and reading in forums such as these for quite a few years, lurking in the background, taking in information and forming ideas. I'm quite bored of that now, and I want to be able to contribute what I have learned so far throughout my life as a psychonaut.
Psychedelics are a passion of mine, I have been fascinated by them for a very long time. When I first heard of DMT, back in early high school, I laughed at the idea that I would ever have some, thinking it to be merely a pipe dream. I could not get it out of my head, the possibility of such a substance, so I began to research. I read everything I could find on the subject, from forums to erowid to the library, I was surprised at the wealth of information on the subject. My 15 year old mind was insatiable for the knowledge of sacred compounds, and I buried myself in research. In these early days, someone who isn't me attempted and A/B extraction tek. The results were very low yield, but a few hits of spice were obtained. That was the beginning, and even though a 'breakthrough' wasn't achieved, I will never forget the unexpected magic, even though I had read so much about it, no information read could do any real justice.
The first large scale extraction attempt happened in an interesting way which brought me together with who I consider today some of my closest friends. SWIM thought of trying to do an extraction again, this time STB, so all the materials were obtained minus the MHRB and a few pieces of equipment. A few days later, a FOAF called out of the blue (knowing that I was into these things and was very much like me) explained how he had just attempted an extraction, only to get into a minor car accident and loose a full solution of spiced naptha being transported. There were some other complications with a bunch of things, and basically, I had everything he needed and he had everything I needed to make it happen. I will never forget the feeling I had when I woke up the next day and looked at that glass tray, that beautiful sheet of crystal.
DMT was the first real psychedelic I have ever experimented with and it opened my mind to all these new ideas. Once I discovered 'acid' for the first time, I had a very profound and intense experience that lasted for 2-3 days, and to this day many of my friends believe it was a DOx compound. This turned me off of acid for a while, and I began to experiment with MDMA, maybe a little too much. But as most of you know MDMA has that ability to correct itself when abused, it just stops working...anyways, my next discovery was psilocybin and oh my goodness, it was beautiful. For a while, I managed a love triangle between mushrooms and dmt, and some of the craziest experiences in my life were during this time. Eventually, I tried acid again and this time, it was everything I wanted it to be. Shrooms and I, we went our separate ways but we're still friends (who still occasionally hook up), and acid became my new love. To this day I prefer acid, I love the intellectual curiosity and philosophical discussions that are invoked during an acid trip. I find acid to be much less inebriating on my thoughts and alot less emotional as well.
Through the years, DMT has always been my favorite, along side everything I've ever done I never lost faith in it and I don't believe I ever will. Swim has performed dozens of extractions (mostly STB) with wonderful results, and has experienced hundreds if not thousands of journeys into hyperspace, and is known throughout his many circles as a walking encyclopedia of drug knowledge, constantly informing and saving friends lives from stupid irresponsible drug use. The apparent purpose of this forum is to share knowledge and experience of sacred compounds, which is what I do on a daily basis and is why I believe I would be a valuable member of this community. I wish you all positive and safe experiences...see you in hyperspace. -coalescentdivide
