... you have a freezer dedicated for extractions
... you are used to talking to friends in words that mean absolutely nothing but somehow you understand each other
... you have done drugs most people do not even know exist
... even your cat thinks you are weird
... When you spend half an hour ranting about the new compound you just started experimenting with and get mad when at the end of it your friends just say, "so it's just like acid, right?"
... When your on more than 5 different psychedelics at once
... When you develop mild HPPD, and dont really care because its pretty
... When you are no longer afraid of the dark, because there´s always Light.
... When the drugs you do don't have street names
... When you entertain the idea of licking unknown powders off he flat surfaces in your house
... PiHKAL and TiHKAL have a permanent place on your nightstand
 
... you are seriously pondering the idea of buying a bufo toad for a pet.....
... you are seriously thinking about setting up a salt water aquarium for one of the psychedelic fish species.....
... You are on a First Name Basis with your RC Supplier
... you howl like a beast at the moon at a festival and you are answered by other similar howls all around.
... you are telling random people you meet about how much you like certain psychedelic
... you are surprised to learn that naphtha and lye have legitimate household uses
... normal people consider some of the music you listen to "elevator music"'

jiva, I seriously hope you are joking. I get the idea of the thread, but what I've quoted is concerning. Doing these things doesn't make a person a psychonaut, they make that person irresponsible and reckless.

there is a reason i posted this in the "humor and Fun" section
😁

edit: maybe a disclaimer would have been appropriate
edit2: i highly appreciate the concern, this is one of the reasons i prefer this board over others
 
...when you consider each and every item in a kitchen gadgets store for its potential to be re-purposed as a laboratory item or drug-administration device
...when every flower bed becomes a potential gold-mine for psychoactive plants or fungi
 
This is hilarious. I think we are more alike than we are different.
What we love is consciousness. And how to bend it warp it stretch it still it empty it fill it.
Plants allies have always been the way.
 
... when there constantly feels like there's a hair in your mouth, but clearly there isn't.
... the onset of smoked DMT feels like "going home."
... You decide that putting a cactus in a blender is the best solution
... When you tell people when you'll arrive in T+ notation.
... When your friends have a drug combination named after you
... When acid becomes a "background drug
... When you have a really bad trip your first time eating a drug, but want to do it again because you wonder, "is it always like that?"
 
LMAO i can relate to almost all of them lol lol .

You know your a psychonaut when

sharing your human body with other gods and goddesses is like passing the salt.

Telling someone about DMT makes them wonder if they are at school and should be taking notes

hearing about aliens is about as interesting as seeing people walk down street

Talking to yourself isn't just talking to yourself

you think space suits and rockets are silly, Genie & DMT is all you need

You start questioning the psychedelic effects of Oxygen
 
You know your a psychonaut when ...

sobriety feels like an altered state of mind.

you're pretty sure your grandma has never done psychedelics before but you're also pretty sure she's been tripping this whole time.

Im pretty sure all the drugs have street names.
They are most often nust simplified names.
For example Psilocin being 4-HO-DMT or 4-AcO-DMT Psilacetin.

Even "rare" drugs like 2C-E have names. In this case its called Aquarust.
 
- Your friends always double check and ask what's in the pipe before hitting it
- Your friends automatically say "No, I don't want any acid." when they see you
- You get offended when someone doesn't know who Terrence McKenna is
- You smell DMT everywhere you go
- You only date fellow psychonauts
- You want your very own machine elf
- Someone says they are going on a trip and you ask on which psychedelic.
- You named your goldfish Terrence
- When you see a turkey baster you get just a little excited
- You have a drawer in your house specifically for your psychedelics
- You rub your GVG and make wishes

Very relateable
 
Such a great thread, thank you Jiva and all who contribute <3 :D

...when you wander around groceries thinking about your past trips and philosophing about structure of mind and universe
...when there is a mushroom soup in a restaurant you wonder if they put psilocybes into it
...when you can't decide whether cosmos or hyperspace is the actual trip
...when someone in the street talks about cacti and first thing coming to your mind is san pedro and peyote
...when only mushrooms that you've gathered in your life by yourself are psilocybes
...when you can't distinguish basic edible and poisonus fungi, but you can recognize at least 5 types of magic mushrooms with perfect efficiency
...when some person asks you if you've took a psychedelic drug and you answer: this week?
...when you dream that your marriage will take place in hyperspace or at least in a psychedelic state
...when you no longer can say to your friends "I'm getting on a trip tomorrow" without them thinking that you mean you're going on a psychedelic voyage
...when you play 432hz vibration music to your growing schroomies so they grow nicely
...when you don't use fluoride containing toothpaste to avoid calcifying of your pineal gland
...when the plants in flowerpots on your window are salvia divinorum, since no one knows what it is anyway
...when you had a moment in your life when you said "no more psychedelics ever again"
...when you take/smoke psychedelics in your dreams and they actually become trippy
...when you type in such a thread on dmt nexus

Yes.. yes... oh yes... Been there done that my friend!

That made me laugh!!!! 😁
 
-When you see a glass container and think that'll be the perfect extraction vessel.
- You have LSD blotter artwork hanging In your living room.
-You have the Nexus set as your home page.
- You've taken a college chemistry class just for the knowledge.
-Your dream job is to work for MAPS.
-You find yourself staring your dose down thinking "what am I getting myself into"

Great thread!:twisted:

I hardly ever take acid in real life, much more in my dream life. That must be where all the missing tabs went :?

Oh sh*t. I'm one of those :lol:

...or the psychedelic effects of pizza
 
Man I was belly laughing at some of these! I'll give it a shot.

...when going to the store to grab a few things you start checking the MSDS of potential solvents.
...when you go to the local garden store to see if they stock any Pedro.
...when you meet your housemates/best friends through chatting about DMT at a psytrance party (true story).
...when you only use FB to see when the next psychedelic lectures are taking place.
...when your housemates get annoyed because you're taking up all the space in the freezer.
...when the smell of mothballs makes your heart race.
 
You know you're a psychonaut when...

-You refer to a period of your life as "the time I worked with...".
-You start drinking ayahuasca like most people do with alcohol, once a week or more often and sometimes just for fun.
-You have broken through on a oral dose of every psychedelic you tried.
-You honestly can't remember when was the last time you WEREN'T tripping or experiencing after effects.
-You question your sanity for a solid month after ceasing any psychedelic use.

I could think of more, but I would be stealing than.
