Let me start by saying hello and let everyone know that I am horribly miserable at introductions, well not intro's so much as, just going on about myself. Anyways I'll do my best.

So I found the DMT Nexus... oh about 3 months ago. I had been looking at articles and websites pertaining to DMT. I found that this forum is much different then ANY others that I have either belonged to(which isn't many, I HATE facebook, myspace, etc.) or just stumbled across. I am very impressed with the maturity level of everyone and the respectfulness everyone shows. Maybe it's because most of the members on this site are like-minded people, or more likely it is because this forum dedicates itself to a sacrid, powerfull teacher called DMT. The real point here is I couldnt wait to get involved, almost as much as I couldn't wait to get involved with the spirt chemicle itself.

I really dont know what to say about myself... I started with "drugs" at age 12 when I smoked canibis. I then tried shrooms and started smokin Pot all day every day at the age of ~14. I loved the shooms I wanted so much to do them again but that didnt happen till I was 16. It was this time that I relized shrooms are not "drugs" as filed away by our igrorant culture but instead mind openers, tools for growth and conscious awarness. 16 was a great year for me I tried Lcd(10 hits my first time), 2c-b, K, Opium, and a large no. of other research chemicles. The research chemicles may not have been a great idea, after taken U4EUH I then took EX, but not good MDMA EX but instead a potluck of chemicles neatly formed into one pill. I was pretty bad on Rolling for a while, till I was 18 I didn't care about much else. I ended doing a bout 20 every week. AT the time I realized I was really fucking my life up with these Rolls I had found some more LCD. That 4 hit trip changed the rest of my life. I dont really ever take EX any more. and I stopped smoking weed. cant do it now? Idk why??? Everytime I smoke now its like a 1500 microgram acid trip with 8 grams shrooms on top of that, which I know most might think wow i wish Pot did some shit like that for me, but the truth is I cant controll it every time it's a bad trip. Idk anyways I really loved smoking weed so I was looking for a nother herb for smokin. Ive always been into shamanic rituals and things of that nature. And love plants I have quit a garden now. So while looking for new healthy herb to smoke I happened to find out alot about psychoactive plants and then DMT found me.

I of course had heard about DMT listening to terence mckenna talk about Psilocybin shrooms, but when every I taked to people about it. it was always never heard of. Now after researching this quit a bit I decided I had to try this, But since I didnt research enough I thought the only differance between 5-meo an N,N DMT was visuals. I ordered 5-MEO-DMT from Sigma Aldrich didn't measure dossage and smoked probably about 30 mg. I overdosed. It effected me for weeks, in fact I believe I still live with some effects that I've just kinda learned to deal with, and not take much notice to them.

So this kinda put me off to dmt for a short amount of time. I try to be very earth oriented now, I use kava, kratom, woodrose seeds, and ofcourse shrooms. all things from nature, however I still can not stop smokin those damn posioned cigs from the local "convenience" store or drinking 80 posion water. While looking into more shamanic rituals I came across yopo seeds and ayahuasca rituals. This really made me take a nother look at DMT... and once again I was very interested. I felt a little to eager and wanted to rush into it AGAIN. This time however I made myself do much more research, and found that 5-MEO and N,N-DMT are not as simillar as I had thought. I Looked at several teks, with no real chemisty knowlege, I went with the noman's tek. During the time of the extraction I ran across a problem and found this site for help. I quickly joined and entered the chat room where someone I think named endlessness gave me some great advice. After that I took a look around the site and relized how great it was and how much I wanted to be a part of this electronic community... So here I am now.

I realize I didnt do a get job talking about myself. I just went on about my Drug experience, which was not my goal but this is getting quit long. So I'm going to close by saying I am a 24 year old male who dropped out of highschool went back last year and got my GED and am now going to a local community college. I have a wonderful women who supports me, I've been with her for 4.5 years and we have a 2 year old son together. He is the best thing that ever happen to me. I want for him every thing I never had. I want to share with him all the knowlege of the world.

Well if your still reading thats me in a nutshell. I hope to meet alot of you and you can learn more about me. Thanks

Well, I can definitely relate to you on a lot of the things you talked about -- the drug history, dropping out, etc.

I would encourage you to work with N,N-DMT. I have no experience with 5-MeO, and I'm frankly not that interested, the N,N is incredible, visual, safe, and easy to recover from. Additionally, it is predominantly N,N-DMT that is an active constituent of Ayahuasca as well as its presence in our bodies, many plants, and other mammals as well. It has implications and relevance that I don't believe 5-MeO has at all. (Just my opinion)

If you have any further trouble with extraction tek, I'd personally be happy to share some of my experience with you. I use a very safe, very easy tek. (check out Q21Q21 Vinegar/Lime tek -- unbelievably easy)

Thanks Alot for the addvice with all the research I've done now I do know quite a bit about both. I just wish I would have done poper research before buying the 5-MEO. Oh well I know now N,N-DMT is the way to go. that is what I've been looking for. It's been very enlightening.

I quickly looked over the Tek I wish I would have seen this tek first(much easier acid/base then I've seen). however I've done 2 extractions using the noman's STB tek and I feel comfortable with it for now. I do want to try other teks, just simply dont have the time or space to be experimenting with things now. Thank you though I will deff. use it. hopefully soon!!!
