Introducing myself to this community.

[D2430]

Hello from the other hemisphere!

New to the site, decided to take the plunge and get involved after 6 months of toying/researching/wondering.

32, live in QLD Australia (Via England originally). Was pushed on this spiritual journey after a vicious custody battle for my son. Really want to instil a good approach to life in my son, and to do that, I need to understand myself and what I live in a whole lot better than I do.

I work in an area of QLD which I found out is abundant in acacia spp. They are even planting youngsters next to our sleeping areas. Also luckily work with Environmentalists, so I can access thier knowledge oto.

I would like to be able to contribute to this community, any information, pictures, anything people may think is useful. I am however not a scientist, so I would be limited to tangible facts.

P.S : If any resident experts could help identify the below. I have more pictures and can get a lot more too. I asked our resident experts, but as it turns out, we are surrounded by various wattle and Acacia, to a point that each creek seperates different specicies. Would love some help!

Hi Delta,

I'm super excited you joined! We definitely need more people IDing acacias and working with them!


Due to your intro and questions/comments in chat, I'm voting "YES" for your full membership and will encourage others to do the same!



BIG welcome!

Welcome to the Nexus!

Good to have you around!

Would you mind expanding on your experience with psychedelics/DMT?

Be well!

Howdy!

Thanks for the warm welcome.

My experiences, if I am honest revolved around a mis spent teenhood. Fairly vanilla flavored. (In the UK) Shrooms, LSD, etc. More recreational than anything.
I was then in the military for a fair while, where obviously experience was limited.

The DMT thing, unfortuately I fall into that category of newbies. I am going through a particularly challenging time with a custody battle, and I will be honest, 12 months ago it very nearly became unbearable.
I realised upon meeting my son, that infact, I had previously, no real concept of the human condition of love. Now that I have opened that part of my concious up, I need to know what else I have been missing.

At the same time I was doing my own historical research about the Ancient civilisations of South America and North North/East Arica, stumbled across Graham Hancocks work, read some more about him, etc etc etc. Here I am wanting to have that 'change' for the next part of my life and to ensure I can provide the best possible emotional support for my son. I have commited to a trip to South America early next year, with that single purpose in mind. I want that to be as authentic as possible and the first journey, but it doesnt stop me wanting to research/try/test methods in the meantime.

I have always had an active interest in psychology, and having read further theories around the potential effects of DMT releaving symptoms of anxiety, depression etc, well I guess thats my angle.

That and living in Australia and finding out what an abundance of natural fauna are around me, I thought it only fair I try to enter the community with something to offer, rather than just taking.

I have an annoying habit of, when learning of something interesting, I have to study it until I have a vague understanding. I hope these are acceptable motives for being here... :thumb_up:

Nothing wrong with being a DMT newbie. All good things will come in time to those who never stop trying
