Hello nexus, I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself and to tell you about what I experienced last night. I joined this site this last weekend and have been waiting to find the time to write this, but after my experience last night I need some feedback from all of you. While I may be a new member of this site, I have been lurking in the shadows for just over three years now. My first successful extraction was a slightly modified Noman's STB tek. I have found that with mimosa the acid cook hasn't been necessary due to the very low oil content in the bark. My crystals have always been white and beautiful after a single re-x, which since I would always do at least one re-x, and have always gotten very clean product, I have never seen a need to use an A/B method. I do plan on trying my first A/B tek in the coming weeks and will provide pictures when I'm done.
I have been changed forever by the spice. I mentioned somewhere that I never believed in any sort of higher power/afterlife/spirituality until the spice convinced me that there is something much greater than myself that is guiding me in life. I have a BS in Chemistry and spent two years working on my doctorate in organic chemistry but dropped out without earning a degree due to some personal issues that made grad school very difficult for me. I have been addicted to every substance from alcohol to xanax and continue to take methadone and klonipin. I plan on coming off of methadone in the coming months and hopefully my nerves will allow me to come off the benzo as well. I have found with all of my addiction struggles that psychedelics can provide a very good foundation on which to build a solid recovery, but cannot alone cure addiction. I definitely found spice to be very helpful in allowing me to subjectively view myself. I firmly believe that addiction treatment requires a good support system to help you stay that way though. I
I want to state clearly that I only give my chemistry credentials to allow others to know where I am at, not to brag or be condescending to anyone, and if I EVER come across in a negative way please let me know, as this is not EVER my intention. I know for a fact from listening to many of you over the last few years that there are many people on here with more education in chemistry than I have, I simply want people to feel comfortable in asking me for help with chemistry related issues. I feel like it is the responsibility of the people on this forum to develop a reliable tek for phalaris, because nobody else will do it, and we need to have that taken care of BEFORE our mimosa is taken from us. I know that with the amount of knowledge on this site we can pull it off together. I am making that my sole mission for the rest of the year(at least until the winter solstice). I would like to help expand the availability of the spice to anyone who might need it. I hope that there are more of us out there who will help me with this, as I feel it is the most important issue that all of us face. As more attention is drawn to the spice from irresponsible extractors and those looking to make money on the spice, we may face the very real possibility of losing access to mimosa. Joe Rogan has brought the spice to the attention of a lot of people, many of whom have zero appreciation for the power contained within it. I am afraid the day may be coming when a phalaris tek is my only option for obtaining spice.
Now I want to take a moment to tell you all what happened to me last night. I was sitting down watching television and eating dinner when I decided to get up to get a glass of water. This is when I started getting a tingling sensation in my legs and then lost feeling in them all together. I tried to pick them up only to see them start swaying back and forth with my foot still planted on the ground. I couldn't move. I immediately called over my roommate and told him to call 911. At this point I started to lose feeling in my hands and arms, then my face. After only a few moments I could not move a muscle in my body. When the EMT's showed up they got me to try and walk. This was the strangest thing I ever felt. I could move and do whatever they told me, but I couldn't feel it happen and it took much more effort than normal. Even now I am finding that it takes me much more energy to perform the same movements that I could do easily yesterday. Not only was moving difficult, but I couldn't feel my body move at all, or feel it at all for that matter. I also want to elaborate further by saying that there was a delay between when i was attempting to move and when I actually moved, and stopped moving. I have a movement disorder that causes me to twitch uncontrollably sometimes and am taking medication to help keep it under control. I did forget to take one of my meds that I take at bedtime the night before, but don't know for sure what was happening to me. The doctors and nurses were very rude to me and didn't tell me anything. I left AMA because of how horrible they were treating me once I got control of my body back. I wanted to know if anyone has ever experienced anything like this before? It was by far the scariest experience of my life. I want to know for sure what caused it, but I'm afraid unless it happens again I may never know. I hope it doesn't, but at least I would have a chance at figuring out what happened to me.
I am running out of time right now, but wanted to say thank you to all of you for the help you have given me over the years in helping me get my process down. I have so many things to discuss with so many of you. I look forward to learning more and helping those who need it. I also look forward to the many travels I have yet to experience, and hearing more about the travels of my fellow nexians. I'm glad I finally decided to join you here. Thanks to those of you who took a moment to read this, I have much more I want to say but do not wish to be greedy with your time and know there will be lots of opportunity to speak my mind in the days, months, and years to come.
