Strange new world

[findtheothers]

Ok.. where to start.

Im a young man in my physical prime and up until about a year ago I have had no interest what so ever in spirituality or drugs of any kind except for alcohol, which I was never really into either. Then however, I discovered LSD, which changed my view on life and the universe in a big way. Ever since my first acid trip I have been convinced this path is one that I want to pursue further. It has also given me lots of other new interests and I am in general alot more curious about how living things around me work. People around me have also noticed that I have changed. I am in a good place right now and really enjoying life in general.

A few months ago I vaped DMT for the first time (while on a LSD trip actually). I was to say the least very intrigued. Since then I have vaped around 15 times in total and maybe 5 of those have been while tripping on LSD. The times i vaped during acid trips have been ALOT more clear and vivid then the rest.

A few days ago I did my first extraction from MHRB (lazymans tek, but with heptane instead of naptha), which was quite the failure, but thats another story. I still have alot more bark to experiment with though.

Im looking forward to learn more and share my journeys with you guys!

Hello findtheothers,

Welcome to the Nexus. Thanks for taking the time to submit an Introduction essay. It sounds like you are on an ongoing path of discovery.

I am sure that you will be able to get questions answered and that you will find extractions getting easier as you go.

I was also impressed with your presence in chat the other day. It sounds to me, that just like with extraction, you'll get there with letting go, etc. This place can be a great resource in my opinion and is well worth taking some time to acquaint oneself with.

I hope to see you around and that you find nothing but success in your future. Again, a very warm welcome to you.

Welcome to the forums findtheothers

Glad to hear your trying to extract your own dmt.

I think the process is essential if you wish to use dmt for whatever purposes you find with it. I won't ask how you obtained dmt beforehand, since imho its irrelevant now that you choose to extract your own. And if it was gifted by a fellow traveler, than :thumb_up:.

I found out when i first started extracting, was that if you do a few small test batches first, refine your technique, and go slow and think everything over twice, you can't go wrong.

I'm sure you've already checked out the wiki, i spend hours (and still do on occasion) reading through various teks. Its a great resource, and lots of good info on teaching people what is going on, rather than just giving out a "recipie".

I hold the opinion that if you don't know what the steps in your tek are actually doing chemically, and the reason why/safety risks, you should wait until you learn more vs. rushing into it, as a general rule of thumb.

PM/make a thread if you need any help with your future extractions, i for one, and countless others will help explain the process and help people understand the steps.

Once you got that down, its like learning to play new music on an instrument you can already play. Any novel teks that come out, or you come across are just new pieces of sheet music that you can learn in a fraction of the time it once took you when you first started.

Hope ya stick around, learn something/teach us something, and contribute to the collective nexus of information focused on psychadelics as well as other topics, we try and cultivate here. Its a great community

Peace and safe journeys,

DT

Thank you "Pandora" and "The Day Tripper" for your replies.

Pandora, concerning the short chat I had with you the other day about letting go and negative enteties etc. Yesterday I had a few breakthrougs with a whole other mindset then what I have had before. My first few trips before I have been trying actively to communicate with the entities rather then just relaxing and observing. So yesterday I did just this instead, relaxed and observed, and that gave me a whole different kind of trip. Very interesting how the mindset can have such a huge impact on where the spice takes you.

I am very glad to read this findtheothers.

btw, did your breakthrough generate enough material for you to write up an experience report?
