10:- First try of booze, didn’t like the taste but chose to bear with it to get an effect.
12:- Ciggies, kept smoking tobacco until I quit late last year; still mix my bud with Baci (tobacco) tho.
13:- First tried cannabis, smoked at home with a then close friend of mine while my parents were away; I got so stoned I couldn’t even make toast without laughing. Caffeine and nicotine.
15:- Got really into drinking, a temporal blur in my memory; stoped or slowed my bud smoking for a bit after I lost contact with my smoko buddy.
16:- smoking more bud with different people, steady elevation into my later drinking prowess, mindless socialising and partying in the surreal years of high school.
17:- Re-met my old smoking partner and started a wildfire! Smoked almost every day to every night and learnt the most about smoking techniques and the use of substances - still some degree of adolescent ignorance. Continued drinking too much.
18:- (Re)Discovered erowid and the wider psychonautic community, advanced my smoking prowess to almost godlike levels (too frequently, and I use a variety of methods - bong is best
), quit smoking ciggies, slowed my drinking to an eventual halt and found that the divine mushrooms were conveniently blooming in my front yard. Discovered the amazing power of MDMA, after trying small fragmented batches of pills, I had for the first time an effortless supply of good bikkies through a friend, but refrained from continuing the rate of use because of the side effects one gets from ingesting many E pills repeatedly, which most people know will do shit all after the 5-HT in your brain is depleted.
Smoked some laced bud at one point; either ketamine or MDA; I was pinging on 3 X tab’s at the time so the visuals were pretty amazing and surreal, yet nothing compared to the intensity of a mushroom or acid trip; both visually and mentally.
Best year of my life so far (had a long standing girl friend that year also which ended in heartbreak for me, but I learnt a lot from that.)
19:- Just turned 19 on the 14th of July. Had an amazing mushroom experience that night with 3 of my closest mates. Anticipating the possession and use of DMT after me and my friend extract. Wanting to try LSD, LSA, 5MeO-DMT and many more substances in the ever growing need for divine insight.
