Hello fellow light riders - sight newbie here - first post

Migrated topic.

I am glad I stumbled across this sight. I was researching some other threads and saw people talking about "The Nexus" but didn't know what they were talking about. I can now see why is has been a popular topic of conversation. I had no idea that there was an online community of like minded people, most of whom are fellow travelers. This is terrific, I particularly appreciate the Lexicon. The substance common to all of us, truly is a remarkable one. I look forward to the exchange of knowledge and experience as well as giving advice to and recieving advice from fellow travelers.

As far as experience; I have done most enthogens/psychoactives out there but have only vaped n-n about 15-20 times and aya 3 times. Both are AWEsome! I am a big fan and wish more people would take that leap. They would not be sorry. I personally like to use this analogy:

If you were to hand someone (like a stranger) a suspicious looking package wrapped in brown paper and told them it is a gift just for them, they would likely refuse the package. (but secretly inside was a million bucks). If they only knew... A crackpipe full of some smelly plastic is certainly suspicious. If they only knew... I wish everyone knew.

It is a new year (currently the 13th of Jan, 2011 as of this writing), and I have dedicated this year to personal change and growth. I have sworn off drugs and alcohol and am 13 days sober. The only exception is our spirit molecule and the rarity of a few select recreational super-fun-time chemicals. I have even sworn off marijuana, not that it is inherently bad in and of itself, but it makes me lazy, unmotivated and unambitious. This is definately a hinderance to personal growth.

I will post trip reports as they come back to me. As is likely the case with most of you, I have more questions than ansewrs but I will save them for another thread.
 
Welcome to the Nexus!!

Im glad you have decided to take steps in improving your life! Wish you have the strenght to continue succeeding in your objectives!

Regarding other people trying dmt/aya, while I understand what you mean and while I personally feel they have changed my life for the better, I dont think this is necessarily so for everybody. In fact we have seen here people for whom these substances did not result in making their lives better, and they had big trouble integrting the experience. Thats why we take so much care in advising as much care and respect for these substances, taking care of integration (check our health and safety section), as well as discourage people from spreading the idea of dmt and other psychedelics are a panacea or necessarily good/beneficial.

In any case im happy you personally have found good ways to use these substances and I hope they continue helping you in your path!

So if I may ask, whats your experience with extractions? What about your smoking method? And whats your favourite setting for consuming these substances?

See you around!
 
Thank you for your welcome.

I used the DMT for the masses method with a little help from friends who have worked out the kinks. I freeze precip. Is there a better way that would be achievable by a non-chemist?

For smoking method- Ive had varying degrees of succuss with "crack pipes" for lack of a better term. For a while, I really enjoyed smoking it between 2 layers of that fake weed stuff (Brand names-K4, Funky Monkey, etc...) from a glass weed pipe. I would prefer this even when real weed is available. It seems to lengthen the duration of the experience without taking away the magic. But, since the 1st, they have made it illegal so I just put it between 2 layers of cigarette ash.

As for my favorite setting - I like to relax in a comfortable chair, put my feet up and slouch a little for some extra comfort. I like psy-trance/ambient on low volume in the background (my fav song to blast to is by OoOOo - Burnout Eyess). It is awesome, YouTube it. Low lighting but not dark is best for me.

Now if I may ask you a question endlessness, what do you mean by/examples of "big trouble integrting the experience"?
 
Im not sure abut the pharmacology of jwh synthetic cannabinoids and synergy with DMT. With weed me and some others feel it actually numbs the effects of dmt, makes it more cloudy. Personally my absolute best way of smoking (or rather, vaporizing) is using a GVG (glass vapor genie) but not all people have at the moment possibility to buy it because its kinda expensive (100$). Its definitely very worth it, though, makes it sooo much smoother and more effective. Before that my preffered method was indeed in a bong between layer of ashes.

Regarding setting, that sounds fine :) I like no music though, and rather do it in bed with some comfortable pillows behind my back, sitting up comfortably.

As for trouble integrating, look up posts by joebono, for example. This is the last thread he made (wasnt the only one with this tone).
 
Welcome to the Nexus, WaveRider. Sounds like you're up for an exciting year! Any specific goals in mind?
 
Well, my main focus is to get back to college (3rd time's a charm :idea: ) Growth is an ongoing process, something we must work on constantly, so I plan to just take it one day at a time on my other goals: staying clearheaded, getting my life together, making sure that my family is loved and taken care of, getting my finances in order and getting back to a reasonable physical condition. I have gotten a little chubby as well as a poor cardio-respritory system from 6 months of binge drinking and smoking weed every single day on top of a pack a day cig habit while doing nothing but playing xbox. The sedintary lifestyle was fun for a while but it's over now. Time to move on. I am thinking of taking up a sport.
