I have freebased some DPT using this Freebasing TEK and ended up with this oily goo. Any ideas on how to manage it? I think I will just wrap the whole plate in tinfoil and store, because I have no idea what else to do without losing half of the substance in the process. Vaped DPT is so different to vaped DMT. I think I like DMT more, but DPT always makes me happy for no reason, it has the best afterglow. DPT is better for microdosing, for sure. It tastes worse, though. I can feel it getting in contact with the tongue and crystallizing. Maybe it needs higher temperature, so it has more energy to go through the air passages? DMT is tasteless, just has a smell. Yeah, DMT is better, maybe a mix of them two would be cool to smoke? I mean in the sense, you trip on DPT, it lasts around 1 hour, there's plenty of time to toke on DMT too. On the comedown, because the DPT peak doesn't need any augmentation.

It sucks that DMT is on United Nation's list of prohibited substances, if not that it would probably be still legal in some places and could be made synthetically, like DPT, which is dirt cheap in bulk. But the way it is now it is illegal to produce DMT in a lab basically everywhere in the world. Thanks uncle Sam and uncle Nixon for your efforts in the war on drugs.

Get the emesh, it's only $10 for the RDA, what's the issue with ordering it from China? At most you will lose $10 if customs don't let it pass. I don't know laws in the USA, but have heard that they are weird in regards to vapes. Emesh is godlike. And a note on purity. I have learned that slighlty yellow tinted DMT can be as pure as totally white one, it's just that the crystals take different forms depending on your method of crystallization, and different forms have different colors. It's called polymorphism or something, I am not a chemist, just sharing.

Dunno, I focus on doing various kinds of yoga 4 hours a day, an ocassional retreat, or a psychedelic trip here and there. But I would like to have a meaningful work, like really helping people, easing their suffering, but I have no idea how to put myself into this position. It's not money or time that constrains me, it's something psychological, that requirement of transformation. Leting go of who you are to become someone else. It's not scary or anything, just... hard. I am not a kiddo anymore, but being 23 yo I still have a lot to understand about the world and even a few things to figure out about who I really am, as a human, not in a spiritual sense. I mean, the spiritual, too, but the human aspect gets priority for survival reasons. Sometimes I feel like there's not much in this world to live for, I mean material stuff, like travel, luxurious apartments and expensive gadgets. It's worth so little and gets old so fast. But loving people, loving life is cool. Being useful to others is cool, too. Yeah, observing stuff is always good idea, can't go wrong with that.

Like two years now? Something like that. Chillout. I have been reading that when I was 14 yo, Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, etc. I am well beyond the point at which stoicism can help you with anything and I believe @Javfly33 is too. And the cold showers. I don't know what the deal with them is. For me cold showers are a normal life style choice, I have been doing them since a kid, it's just what you do when there's no hot water. People make such a fuss about it. Just like with the no-fap or glorifying vomiting on psychedelics, calling it "cleansing" while it is just an undesired side effect. I don't subscribe to such ideas.

This kind of work has certain psychological consequences that are hard to put into words. I had been writing erotica and it was not a pleasant work for me, it was worse than slaving physically at a warehouse. Made me stressed, coming up with all this pervy bullshit to write, I am not a pervy guy. But if you really need money you can try, maybe you will understand that game and make a good buck at it. It's just something I wouldn't reommend long-term for a self-actualizing person.

Welcome, welcome, this where I live, make yourself at home, haha.

@machiavelli Oh no, don't try to treat it solo until you have a solid diagnosis. It might be anything and not SIBO. I have never gotten to get a diagnosis for my digestive problems because they have cured themselves after 6 months of being there and one month of using PPI. But I feel your pain. All the tests I have done prior to its healing itself were negative.

@machiavelli I live in Poland, Europe and have been to a few gastroenterologists and all of them knew what SIBO is and tested patients for it routinely. They also prescribe PPI for every condition, though, haha. I am unsure if what you have is sibo, but it's weird you have never been tested for it specifically.

ACTUAL LIES!

@Enlightenment Same experience, only I am 23 and have never fapped on amph. Actually, I haven't fapped on any drug ever. But I know a few animals that fap way more than me, haha. And they do so on psychs. Personally, I would feel like an idiot if I tried to fap more than 3 times a day. I would have to be very stressed and depressed to get such a desire in the first place. There's so no other point in doing it. And just once keeps me going for days, soo... it seems I might be primed for becoming a fulfilled celibate yogi later in life, haha.

@Yarco +1 for the $100 startup, although I remeber analogies in this book being shitty. It's not a 10 ouf of a 10 book, more like 6.5/10.

It can't be an integral model then, but something from the lower stages, that is a residue in your mind, something to eventually get rid off or replace with something better. Vaccines are a proven concept, another tool in the medical toolbox, you would be stupid not to use them when the oppurtunity arises. They are the best, realistic solution to Covid. Plus, this is Actualized.org forum. People here are inserting obscure, untested, impure psychedelics up their buttholes. It takes a certain kind of stupidity to be okay with doing that, but be scared of getting vaccinated.

I read anthropology, sociology, politics, etc. Self-help is boring as hell. The only self-help books I am interested in nowadays are the ones about emotions, managing social conflicts, non-violent communication, etc., because these are the areas I am lacking in from years of being non-duality nerd.

@Intraplanetary My best productivity technique? I am not a very productive person, maybe I could be if reading 100 books a year counted as being productive, but is not in my opinion, haha. But if I want to get some project done or implement a new habit I make bets with a friend. We hold each other accountable for a month and if any one of us doesn't meet the agreed earlier quota of daily productivity, they pay $10 for a charity or whatever for every day they miss.

@hyruga Sidewalk as described by DeMarco include those who are really ballin' in life. MJ is not that stupid to conflate Red with poor, he acknowledged that some Sidewalkers are well-off. He did conflate socialist ideas with not taking responsibility, though. He probably didn't read anything about Spiral Dynamics specifically, but thanks to studying Management and actually reading lots of business books, he had to get accustomed with systems thinking and acquired some notions in his thinking that resemble Spiral Dynamics.

+1 I don't like LSD microdosing. Tried it and found nothing spectacular. If I wanted to microdose, I would just start vaping low-dose DMT everyday, I think the effects would be similar, haha. https://thethirdwave.co/microdosing/dmt/

Found an interesting community on reddit. They have a cool collection of DMT related communities in the sidebar. If it's good enough for Reddit, I hope it's good enough for this site and doesn't fall under sourcing or something. https://www.reddit.com/r/dmtguide/ And here is also a photo of my vape, Ain't it pretty?

I simply hold the postition of not knowing when it comes to aliens. It's not like having a belief on this matter changes anything, so why have one? Believing that they haven't visited Earth, would require me to to change position when it turns out to be wrong, and if I had a positive opinion on that, then I would have to search for evidence and constantly explain myself. Why bother?

@Alex_R I actually feel like DMT is easier for newbies as it last soo short. From my experience best introduction to psychedelics is 50 mg insufflated DPT or, if someone gets turned off by the idea of snorting drugs, 225 ug AL-LAD

If you have liked Laloux's work, then you will also like Corporate Rebels - Joost Minnaar, Pim de Morree. Corporate Rebels is their brand, but also the title of their first book. It tells stories of some great, inspiring, stage Yellow businesses. Currently reading it. The first chapter didn't impress my though. There is some point in reading books, that you reach after reading lots, where it gets hard to find something that will blow you away, haha.

@Breakingthewall 12 times. It has been my first psychedelic ever actually. Full effects, peak + coming down, last 6 hours and it is not an experience as deep as LSD.

I am positive about high doses of shrooms, you just need a perfect setting for 4 hours, when the most intense effects happen. You have to be ready to get pinned for 2 hours to your sofa not being able to move from the bodyload if you happen to get it, otherwise, great experience. No matter how twisted the trip is, I maintain full consciousness over how much time has passed, which is super helpful in not freaking out. If you don't have that ability and can get fooled that you are "trapped in a loop" or something, then make your own judgement wheter you are able to bear it. I think LSD has harsher mindspace than shrooms. Shrooms are easier to manage. LSD is more spiritual, too, though. And better for thinking about complex ideas, refining insights. LSD overall is the superior psychedelic, haha. I would like to have something in my collection that is exactly like LSD, but lasts 3-4 hours.
