~Odysseus~
Rising Star
Hi! I go by Odysseus (~Odysseus~, but "Odysseus" was taken), an alias I go by outside of this nexus.
I'm currently writing this on the comedown of an LSD trip, so bear with me.
About 1.5 years ago I was completely adamant I would never try drugs and stood by the belief that all mind-altering substances are objectively bad. I somehow convinced myself to pursue psilocybin mushrooms out of pure curiosity after hearing so much about it from friends and online. After buying and consuming the mushrooms (first drug I ever tried), a completely new sense of wonder permanently struck me, opening doors I never would've even dreamt of pursuing. I began to explore immediately, increasing the dosages until accomplishing my first hero's journey. I also did a lot of research and began discussing these experiences among my inner circle. Soon I tried LSD, then some dubious smoke shop psychedelic chocolate (probably 4-AcO-DMT or similar RC). Then, lurking on this nexus and other websites, brewed a form of ayahuasca with Mimosa hostilis and Syrian rue. I did this at home, alone, and that first touch of DMT permanently changed something in me. This trip was so minor and a threshold dose, yet so profound and visionary. After meeting an entity of sorts and experiencing a vision, I've grown intensely more spiritual ever since. Recently, also using this website, my closest buds and I extracted DMT also from Mimosa hostilis and I've been slowly experimenting with it with a dab rig. I have never broken through yet and that's where I sit here today. Exploring psychedelics is one thing but also exploring spirituality is another, hence why I decided to register into this site and seek out some community and advice among like-minded individuals.
At my young age (admittedly barely old enough to be on the site), I am insatiably curious, adventurous, but also naive. I'm honestly overwhelmed with what's at stake for me in life, and I'm trying to incorporate my newfound spiritual practices into my life intelligently without becoming insane. I can only condense what I'm seeking so much here, but in a search to become grounded and knowledgeable I find myself getting destabilized, distracted, and confused. Of course entheogenic practices are welcome here, but I wasn't sure about the discussion of specific spiritual practices, something as universal as yoga or meditation for example. All things I feel the need to research and know about, but there's just too much out there.
That's me, and I should probably leave it at that. Thanks in advance for any resources and/or advice I may receive.
