I have debilitating epilepsy, and I got into DMT once I learned how to identify Phalaris species. I started eating Psilocybes at 15, though, and I'm 55 now, so the journey was long and in some ways obvious/predetermined.

I don't have a lot of entertainment, and I can't get out into the world all that much. I can't be alone outside of my house without fear of injuring myself badly. I have a lot of help and I have a service dog. But being alone and being disabled at home means I just have lots of time to go inward.

I've grown Psilocybes, cacti, Salvia, Cannabis, and various other entheogenic plants in my lifetime, propagated them, passed them on to others, and my first DMT came in trade with a friend of a friend.

I made enough in the 00s to last me forever essentially, and I have a friend who keeps it for me so I don't get into any troubles, since I'm sick and have a criminal record (for drugs).

Now I mostly just smoke my pot and keep to myself. I take very few trips on anything at all, except for buses.

In case you are interested in Phalaris grass, just google "make DMT from phalaris grass extraction" and you'll find good info in the first few results.

Drugs and art keep me distracted and busy, if not entertained and at least somewhat satisfied with how I spend my time.
