Hi! Thanks for being so welcoming. I started using psychedelics 22 years ago. I have a lot of time/experience under my belt with many. However, when DMT found me, it changed everything. I was on a plethora of psychiatric medications that were making me a walking shell of obliteration. I couldn't take it any longer. I weaned myself off of them and started using DMT as my medication. I have great respect for it capabilities, where it allows me to go, and how it makes me feel 2 and 3 days after using it. It's not only a medication, but a tool for me. In my eyes it's the equivalent of what most would refer to as going to "Church". It allows me to explore my mind and beyond, resets, reboots, and always leaves me with an open perception to see things more clearly. I also use it as a channeling tool. I recently started doing my own extractions, as I've found that the hands that pull it forth have a great impact on how it treats you. I never use DMT if I don't know who brought it forth. In a nutshell, it freed me from the claws of pharmaceutical addiction and has saved my life. It's more precious than anything to me. It's a miraculous window that allows us to look beyond this one plane of existence into things that the average Human mind can't wrap their little heads around or understand: A gift from the Earth. I come here to meet with others, share my own experiences, trip reports, to continue to educate myself, possibly help guide others that are less experienced, and to just be on the presence of those that are of like mind. I have an endless pile of stories to share...and it's hard to do so with people that don't explore it. They don't understand it. Very grateful to have found this little corner of the internet! Thanks for having me!
