Hello.
I've poked around the Nexus a few times in the last few years and decided it's about time I joined.
My experience with entheogens is very limited. The only plant teacher I've been involved with is cannabis. I've used cannabis on and off for the last two or three years. At first my use of cannabis was very much a social endeavor; I'd smoke with friends, at parties, or the like. Over time the people around me stopped smoking and I began to explore cannabis by myself and I learned to respect the plant much more; it gave me the ability to eat regularly and slow down long enough to think about what's going on, what's going wrong, and what I can to to better myself and my situation. I've used it ritually when I make offerings to the gods and my ancestors.
I've researched psychedelics for the last year or so online. I've watched countless documentaries, listened to speeches and podcasts from the Mckenna brothers, Timothy Leary, and read up on various substances on Erowid. I look forward to discussing and learning here on the boards.
If any of you have questions shoot them this way and I'll do my best to answer.

I'm like you in that my respect for it as a proper spiritual tool has gone up considerably over the years, though I still smoke it socially as well. It has actually gotten much more psychedelic for me as I explored more of my mind. Have you ever tried an oral cannabis preparation? That's where things can really get wild.
