Hello, world!

[Nakamashi❀ᴇxtract]

Hello everyone, I'm Nakamashi❀ᴇxtract (Nakamashi is fine), and I've been browsing this forum for about a week and I've finally decided that I should go ahead and register. I've never actually come across DMT (sadly) but I've always been very interested in the spiritual use of entheogens. I only began smoking marijuana a little over half a year ago, and I've tried a variety of drugs such as LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, 2C-B, etc., but I've spent most of my time distracted from my main goal. Throughout this last summer and up until a couple of weeks ago, I frequented raves and parties and tried many drugs for their recreational value, such as a variety of ecstasy pills (once containing 83% methamphetamine), cocaine, and a variety of pain killers, as well as testing various cheap drugs for the sole purpose of seeing how "fucked up" they could get me (Dramamine, Robitussin, etc.). However, as the enjoyable stimulation of MDMA began to lessen and the inevitable crash slowly but surely began lengthening, I started remembering what I had really wanted to accomplish by entering the drug scene. This isn't to say that all of what I've described so far wasn't extremely enjoyable, and I certainly don't regret doing it, but I feel that I went a bit too far with it, at least for now, and I'd really like to return to my original goal. That's why I started looking at sites like this one. The final thing that pushed me to make an account here was an experience I had over this last weekend. For the first time in several months, I was able to obtain some mushrooms (gold caps) and I had happened to purchase a gram of 20x salvia extract the previous day, so I decided to go for a trip. The experience wasn't super intense or anything like that, I just ate one gram of mushrooms and took a big rip of the salvia, but it was definitely more than I expected (the mushrooms were much better than the ones I can usually get). Much of this trip was mental (although there were some cool visuals, too), and it really helped me reflect on this past six months and come to decisions on what I want to do from now on. And that's really all I have to say. I've really enjoyed this site from what I've seen so far and I'd like to continue to learn from it and find ways to delve deeper into my psyche, so I hope I can be promoted to a full membership!

Welcome! That's quite brave hitting salvia like that for the first time while on mushrooms!

There is a reverse tolerance with salvia..start low and dont have expectations..eventaully it will take you.

That's good to know! Because I expect to use salvia many more times

I got to try the mushrooms I mentioned before again today. The trip has ended by now, but I still feel phenomenal! This time I took two grams, and a 10mg Valium (highly recommended by the person I got the mushrooms from). Once again, the trip was more mental than visual, but this time there was quite a bit of visual tripping as well. Of course, being the smart guy I am, I decided to take the mushrooms and the pill right before going to class (freshman year in college), haha. My friends always call me crazy because they can't stand tripping in public, but I felt very at ease with the situation. I only had two classes, and the first one I got to leave early after finishing my test (which was very interesting to take during the come up!), so I wandered around in the hallways for what seemed like several hours (about 3 minutes). When I finally found a place to sit down, I booted up my laptop and started listening to Scotty Don't (the original-songs version of Badfish, the Sublime tribute band). As the walls and floor (especially the floor; the generic patterned school carpet) began spinning and becoming three-dimensional, I delved deep into my thoughts, and the whole time I couldn't stop thinking about how beautiful the world is and how complex everything is. One thing that always kept me entertained was every time I started texting someone (and I was carrying on several conversations), the whole world around me would start to crumble at my peripheral vision and intricate patterns would start appearing and moving towards the center of my vision like cracked glass, and then the screen on my phone would start flashing green and blue and the letters in the text would start vibrating. Then when I sent each message, the world would pop completely back to normal, and then the visuals would kick in again, haha. I peaked during my second class, which I thought was absolutely amazing, because it was Psychology, and it was so interesting! This has definitely been cemented in my memory, though. How it happened was, I was going through the whole intense texting thing again, and the girl who sits next to me that I talk to every day tried to get my attention. This was the first time I had been distracted during these strong visuals, and when I looked to the right, the song Wake Up (still by Scotty Don't) started playing, and visuals exploded forth out of everything. I had just started listening to this song regularly the other day, and now it's definitely on my list of favorite songs for life. At this moment, I looked directly at the girl who sits next to me, and I felt like I was in a movie, and she was the most beautiful person in existence, and the psychedelics crossed over into my perception of reality and I felt this in all of my senses, and the song was the music that plays in the movie that lets you really feel the way the characters do. I looked at her with my mouth gaping slightly (she doesn't do any drugs, but she knows that I do), and she looked at me and raised an eyebrow, and I told her that I wanted to be at a music festival so I could just be running around outside going nuts and expressing how happy I am, hehe. When I looked around I realized that this feeling applied to everything I could see, although it wasn't nearly as intense as it was when it first hit me, and I realized that that had to have been the peak and that I would start coming down after this, but I didn't mind. Never have I been less depressed about coming off of something; on the contrary, I was very happy to have been able to have this experience, and coming down didn't bother me at all. I watched things as the psychedelics slowly began to fade, and when class was over, I waited around in the hallway for a few more minutes until I was sure that the hallucinating had all but stopped, then I drove home. I continued to have a very strong body high for several hours afterwards, and I'm still feeling a gentle glow from it right now, and I can't remember the last time I was this happy. This was definitely the best experience I've had yet.
