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
