Kettle calling the pot black, eh Bill??? 

Hope all is well with you and yours.  Summer is coming.  Hopefully the opportunity to do some fun personal experimentation out in nature will present.  You know how I love to vaporize DMT sitting in the garden.

got me there

But yeah man I'm so jealous because believe it or not the ONLY time I can remember doing a psychedelic outside was my first time ever when I did LSD with some friends and we decided to go out in the dark and roam the town mid trip. After that it's been me pounding myself indoors and alone nonstop hundreds of times.

The thing with being outside is that I need a place I can really trust and I just don't have that now. Hopefully when I'm your age I will.

But man..you hit the nail on the head with pharmahuasca. That stuff hits the receptors like a knife through butter. I did it my first time about 5 months ago and it was just plain awesome. Now all I want to do is pharmahuasca. I can't wait until i grow some balls and smoke DMT again of course

Things are definitely looking up compared to other opiate filled summers. The last few summers I couldn't even wear short sleeves so I basically stayed inside and got high as heavens but I really want to take it outside this year and really get my 5 year old into nature this year. I feel like I'm ruining him slowly with movies and tv because of the cold weather. In the end I just need discipline and creativity


How are you doing? Any adventures lately or upcoming plans? I love seeing that avatar because I know wisdom is about to come down the pike

@ Bill:

Nothing "planned", but I've had 3 grams of finely powdered mush powder in a nice block of dark chocolate sitting in a baggie in my underwear drawer for about 8 months now.  Have had the opportunity to nom, nom, nom, but not the balls. 

I know it's filled with trippy goodness, but shrooms often give me a difficult time - forcing me to confront past decisions, present anxiety, and future woes.  Sucks getting old.  Too much "past" to reconcile, too LITTLE future to accomplish unaccomplished goals, and hell...with Trump in office, EVERYBODY should be worried about the here and now.

That knucklehead seems to be on the wrong side of every issue.  He's taking this country for a ride.  Full speed ahead in the wrong direction.

Yeah for me mushrooms always give me a very hard comeup. Its so bad that i choose now to give in to it and agree with it...it will start convincing me im a piece of shit and all that and ill just be like "yup..im even worse" and i choose to believe the trip is going to be horrible but in the back of my mind i know i will "resurrect" and have a great trip after the initial comeup

The key is to not fight it. If the mushroom is telling you that you suck, agree with it. I find that works best. It always digs you back up and exalts you. Everytime. 


and man...dont get me started on trump

Why only DMT? Entity encounters are common with all the traditional tryptamines. Even non-tryptamines like Mescaline.

Hi! While entity encounters are certainly not limited to DMT experiences, this is one of the first studies of its kind and we hope that our results will better inform researchers in the future who want to study the interesting topic of entity encounters more generally. Hope that helps answer your question

I find this thread to be quite interesting. I have had suspicions of themes, that people often (trip) on. Including entities. trip reports and video clips sometimes show evidence of people having conversations with entities. There is a long standing tradition among shamans who employ herbs and fungi to communicate with spirits/ deities.

Although I have not experienced DMT, I had a VERY strong dose and experience with Salvia, that changed how I thought about the herb before I took it, and now after.

I ended up smoking an extraction of salvia that at first severed my control of my body, like a near death experience. I couldn't control breathing, or connect thought to action, to say. .move my arms or legs. But that was not the only thing that I experienced.

what happened next, was one of the scariest experiences of my life. I was then visited by the (spirit) of the Plant. Who I will just Call, (Mother-Salvia). I can remember the conversation I had with her quite well; as this was also a hallmark life changing moment.

She presented herself to me as an Old Native Central American Woman dressed in High-country Guatemalan clothing. She told me, that there are other entities besides herself on the other side of the (veil). Not all of these other beings are positive or have good intentions for humanity. She basicly made it clear to me that Salvia opens a doorway to this other side, and not all things that we see or have contact with while under the influence of Salvia will be good. And what's more, some things can be unleashed from the other side, and haunt or follow us. Causing misery and lifelong metaphysical problems.

She then showed me something to be afraid of, that was similar to these images from Full Metal Alchemist/Anime-Manga. The Door to the veil its self, and glimpse beyond it to where the Great Spirit had banished things to the (dark), Long ago.




Although this all Played out over the course of  a couple mins.,  To this day, I can quite vividly remember her warning to me, that some plants and herbs and fungi, act as a Key to (open the door). These are the tools of the Shaman and they should be respected.

For me, after this experience, I learned that some substances are fine for relaxation and recreation, like cannabis. However, others like Salvia, are Far different and in my opinion are not something for recreation. To me, Salvia falls into a potentially dangerous class of substances that can have unforseen consequences.

I am not sure what else I can add here. I can discuss further thoughts on this topic, if people want in replies, or people can message me in private. I know that my response was not specific to DMT., However I did experience the (presence of an entity), even if it wasn't under the influence of DMT.

I'd just like to mention...

We can re-x and re-x to achieve closer to pure DMT which will form pretty crystals, but the yellow goo we could start out with is still ~98% pure and kicks ass in exactly the same way.

Not to mention the whole NMT factor, and how much of a role that plays in the experience. Many people swear there is a noticeable difference, but the reports between people seem to vary too much to really mean anything. I read a paper awhile back where they had extracted pure NMT and experienced psychoactive effects from it, saying it was short lived and less vivid hallucinations but provided a very noticeable "feel" of hyperspace and entity contact. Since the two typically appear together in nature, I wouldn't be surprised if there are synergistic effects. 

Maybe this should've been a question on the survey as well?

The yellow mix gets me everything I need and more. Also wouldn't be sad if I had the pure instead... doesn't matter to me but I think I'd lean more towards yellow acacia product with NMT
