Hello Seekers,

It's been a long long time since I've experienced any psychogenic substances, but in the day I did mushrooms, LSD and was also involved in a peyote ritual on a native american reservation in the upper midwest. I have a deep, deep respect for the spiritual power of hallucinogens, and it's something that I would undertake with serious preparation and meditation. It's been several decades since I did them, but those were some of the most spiritually significant experiences of my life. Now, after raising children and spending all that time working as a cog in the machine, I'm ready and restless to start expanding my horizons again. I feel as though all this time in the world being caught up in the mundane and the paradigm has made me stiff and old, both mentally and spiritually, and I need to open the doors again and let the light and the wind back in, if you will.

I've been lurking and reading for some time now, and I'm certain that I want to experience DMT. Unfortunately, I am not a chemist and don't have any familiarity with extraction methods, it's all new to me and frankly, it's overwhelming. Any help is appreciated. I'm really enjoying the attitude of this community and I am looking forward to respectfully participating. Thanks!!!!
 
I'm glad you found the Nexus. I've actually found that my use of psychedelic drugs has slowed over time to the point that it has pretty much come to a stop. I'm starting to wonder if I'm moving into a stage of my life where I don't use drugs anymore. So I feel that I can relate to your situation of wanting to reimmerse yourself in the spiritual world because I ask myself every day or so whether or not I'm ready to do that again, and it may very well be a long time before I'm ready to come back to that life.

Regarding extraction techniques, I'm sure you'll find all the answers you need here. A chemistry degree is not required to extract DMT. There's pretty much one main concept behind the simpler extraction techniques: Polar solvents (such as water) dissolve polar substances and nonpolar solvents (such as naptha) dissolve nonpoloar substances (such as DMT). With that in mind you can pretty much make up your own extraction technique, but one simple method is to dissolve plant matter (containing DMT) in lye-water. You then add naptha to this liquid plant-matter solution and mix gently. After the plant-matter solution and naptha have separated, you remove the naptha and refrigerate and DMT crystals solidify as the naptha cools. Then you just strain, sift, or scoop them out and enjoy. Apparently this is called the Straight To Base (STB) technique, which I didn't actually know until just now, and there are many manuals on how to perform these (I used Noman's Tek). The reason I don't know that much about extraction techniques is that I've only extracted DMT once, but the yield from that extraction has lasted me a year or so.

Anyways, go do the research. There's a wealth of information out there. Welcome to the Nexus. I love you and look forward to hearing about your first steps in hyperspace.
