Hi,

I'm skande, a new member living in Tunisia (yes I know for you it is just somewhere) and I am 18 years old . So I guess I should tell my experience of psychoactives products or the experience of SWIM. It won't be long because SWIM has no experience of the alternative state someone can experience while flying on the mind-changing world that you know. SWIM has only been smoking weed for the lasts months. But SWIM stopped his consumption because, unlike in the United States, smoking weed in Tunisia is punished by 10 years of jail. So SWIM was afraid that it happens to him. Actually it's not really a problem because I'm going to immigrate to the USA to study at Boston (hope to stay for the rest of my life). In fact, SWIM never had a real trip except once: It was very unexpected, one day, the guy who sells pot to SWIM said "this is a really good stuff just try it", SWIM tried it and SWIM have been laughing for half an hour, and SWIM real got crazy at this time.

As I said SWIM got no real experience of the psychoactives, SWIM don't drink and even don't smoke tobacco .. But SWIM knows that parallels and alternatives dimensions exist. SWIM don't ignore that considering the world, with the only point of view that is given to us by a normal state of mind, is being blind. Reality and what is beyond reality can't be completely perceived by poor humans that we are. Nevertheless, we are aware of the infinite potential of our brains. So I think that in order to exploit that great capacity psycho-actives are necessary. Our mind can't be fully or, even partly, exploited without these wonderful tools. That's my point of view, and I'm here to discuss it with you.

My introduction is now done.

Welcome to the nexus!!

I am sure if you actually want to try have a real trip (which you totally should) then all the information here will give you more than enough info and knowledge to do so. Lots to learn on here. A good, smart, respectable community to!

Happy trails skande

Thanks NorthernGeno !

Welcome to the Nexus!

I would suggest before being so sure these altered experiences are so necessary, that you try them. Personally I think for some people they can be necessary or at least important, but not for everybody. I also think psychedelics may help us seeing more about the world and ourselves, but at the same time we can be deluded, so it's important to not take everything literally and to make a good work to integrate the trips

If you ever get to the situation to try psychedelics, be sure to read our health and safety section, it has a lot of good tips.

So when are you going to USA, soon?

Be well!

Welcome to the nexus Skande!

I was curious to find out where Tunisia was so I looked it up. Fertile coastline surrounded by the Sahara desert.

I would probably enjoy living in the more fertile land of this country, as far a climate goes.

I just wanted you to know that the USA is definitely not as free as some believe it to be. There are people here in america who are sitting in prison for LIFE for possession of marijuana.

Our federal government tends to stay out of issues that only involve a single state, meaning if you get caught for something, and it doesn't have to do with opening mailboxes or ripping the tags off of mattresses, or any other seriously sick crimes like that, then the problem is taken care of by the state, in the courts of the state, as opposed to federal court.

Just make sure if you do decide to come to the states, and the reason is to gain more freedom, please be careful when choosing the specific state you wish to live in. California and Colorado are VERY lenient when it comes to marijuana.


I love you.

Well, thank you, i'm going to Boston in something like 2 weeks. I heard that Massachussets is one of the most permissive state about marijuana affairs , and I hope so. It's also one of the most liberal states as a student city. I expect that I'm not wrong.

I believe you know what you're talking about, just be careful with psychedelics.

People around the world are beginning to realize that marijuana isn't only "not a bad thing" But that in most situations with mental or physical ailments it can be very good for you.

This is speculation but I know it to be true.


I love you.

Dear friends,


I need some help. I quickly summarize the situation, I came in some local nurserie to buy a trichocereus hoping I would find a Pachanoi or a Peruvianus. But infortunately , species are not mentioned in this nurserie. So I have to identify the trich before buying it, and I can't fail because cost are very high (around 100-200 $). That's why I need your help , identifying a Peruvianus or a Pachanois is sometime quite tricky.

So here are the pics :

Thank you for your help !

No idea ?
