Hello Nexus

Migrated topic.

Hi everyone,

I am Anon. I am in my mid to late 20's and live in western europe. I do not have any experience with pschedelics so far. I've smoked a lot of weed during my teens and have tried ecstasy and cocaine a couple of times, not too often. About two years ago was the first time I've heard about DMT. I didn't think much about it at that time. About a year ago i saw coverage about amazon tribes who drink ayahuasca for the reason of extending their consciousness and listening to what the spirits have to tell them. At that point I was considering a trip to south america for having this spiritual experience with a shaman, since I didn't know how to acquire ayahuasca in this particular region. Later on i found out about DMT beeing basicaly smokeable ayahuasca, which had me do more intense researches. I've found the DMT-Nexus where i gathered a lot of very important information. Also i found out about Rick Strassmans book DMT - The spirit molecule, which i bought and read a while ago. After some more researches which extended my knowledge but didn't add too many new things, I decided that I am ready to go on the journey. I am just too curious about what else there is. And even though I've read about a lot of stuff, I want to experience it myself. I am fully aware of the fact that I am not going to smoke DMT for the sake of tripping, but rather to extend my understanding of life. I am about to go to the hospital in a couple of days and I want to have the DMT experience before that, so I can use the time after the surgery to think about the things I will see and hear without too much distraction (I am going to lie in bed for about 4-6 weeks, therefore not being able to work or study and also not going to do anything which will provide too much distraction). I believe in the buddhist opinion of life after death and I expect this experience to be pretty broadening. Not that I need to confirm my believes. I would rather think of it as a way of preparing. Knowing whats expecting me later on.
So now here I am. Having created an account to post on the nexus forums. Like I said i have found the nexus a while ago. But I was fine with lurking and not posting therefore i didn't need to create an account beforehand.
Actually I only made this account because I had a question: I am about to build the machine. Yesterday i was in a supply store to get steel wool, since no one seems to sell cupper wool. I bought the finespunone instead of coarse. Now my question. Will it work as good as with coarse wool, or should i get actually coarse wool for bulding the machine?
Also I was told that as a first timer i should start with about 20mg. Will this be enough for a breakthrough or should i use 25 or 30mg? I am about 172cm and weigh 77kg. Dr. Strassmans dossage (high dose) was .4mg/kg that would be about 30mg for me. What do you think?

Thank you for reading and hopefully for answering my questions.
Yours, Anon
 
Welcome to the forum. :)

I'd say you should try with 20 mg first, as long as you have enough to dose again later on, I did a sub-breakthrough dose my first time, and it was still pretty amazing.
with 20 mg you might still break through too, if you smoke too much you could black it all out and not remember anything when you come back.
Also, vaporizing can be tricky, I have long since given up on vaporizing, I just dissolve my dmt in acetone and infuse it with sage, it works great for me.
I hope you have a safe hospital trip as well, if you don't mind me asking, what's putting you in the hospital?
 
I have about 100mg. If it wasn't enough for a breakthrough I had to wait at least 24 hours to try again right? Sorry my english isn't too good. You say you dissolve it in acetone and infuse it with sage. This could sound funny because I am not a native speaker, but what do you do with it after that? It sounds to me as if you would put your dmt (after dissolcing in acetone) in a jar with salvia and put hot water on top of it. I am not sure if this is what you told me. And if it is, what do you do with it? Does the salvia work as an MAOI and you drink it or how do you do it?
 
Just thought I would mention that if you seek a breakthrough and are unsuccessful you can try again in 45mins to an hour.. I always leave it an hour myself ;)

Dosage can be funny, my wife has been to other realms on 20mg yet I get semi-breakthrough on 30 and full with 40-60mg (admittedly with 60mg I have enough for a follow up hit).

For the machine I would recommend coarse wire wool (about 2-3mm width) they usually come in balls (surfactant and detergent free).. The thin wool heats up too quick and I find it easily burns the spice, also you get a horrible taste that simply isn't there with the slight coarser/thicker stuff.

Best of luck with your attempts. I hope the hospital time will go well for you and gives you time to integrate what you may experience.

Peace :thumb_up:
