Miscellaneous just got my shipment of 80x salvia divinorum, what should i do to prepare for the experience

[spypilot]

i got a package of 80x salvia in the mail its about 5 grams
what should i do to prepare for this

 

[Cream Gravy?]

Hold onto your socks. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride.

Definitely gum it rather than smoke. Bucal absorption seems to be a way better experience. Less is more with salvia. Little by little and when it takes you it will be gentle. Really transformative stuff. Go into it with pride or arrogance and you’ll come out with none. Go into it with respect and you’ll leave with respect as well. Truly my favorite drug and I’ve used heroin. There is nothing in this world more honest than salvia.

 

[helpingout]

It is the truest substance I have ever used. It pretends to be nothing and no one but itself. It is completely and totally unique. An absolutely beautiful plant medicine.

 

[HeadphonesandLSD]

Nothing can prepare you for the train.

 

[helpingout]

Heroin will pretend to be euphoric or comforting but in its absence you feel the true effect of the drug.

Salvia pretends to be nothing. It is dysphoric, uncomfortable, strange, perplexing, and yet it is perfectly clear that this is what the plant is. Yet when you return to what has become your reality, the sense of gratitude that this is what things are, that there is some stability in the universe, and that the experience of consciousness could become hellish at any given second, well, it pulls the mask off the universe and gives you pure gratitude for what is. Salvia will take everything you thought you knew and just make it topsy turvy. But when it’s all over and you’re in your new reality. You’ll be grateful and amazed at the profound beauty of what is without the use of drugs. You might still use drugs. I know I did. But you’ll see everything for what it is and nothing more.

Find a person you can trust to be your sitter. Salvia can be very disorienting and many people who handle other drugs including heavy psychedelics just fine can become confused and put themselves into physical danger. This isn't a universal reaction, but it happens enough that it a good idea to have someone watching over you, even if just for the first few times you have a strong dose.

@spypilot

80x is very strong - to smoke it use a small pinch - and a regular lighter in a small pipe, like a one hitter.

you should have a sitter to prevent you wandering which is common when a person accidentally takes more than they can endure and still keep still.
this is not a challenge: Very often the results of smoking salvia are so astonishing that a person will get up - they are astounded - it is not necessarily fear, it is astonshment.

so sit or lie down after inhaling in a place that is "child proof" or safe.

expect a 6 minute ride in which the most mundane curve or color of the most insignificant object becomes transformed into an ocean or community, and a few seconds begins feeling like endless eternity.

Unlike some others, I prefer not going for oral absorption because it is messy, but you certainly have enough material for several experiments. Oral absorption requires 50 times as much material for a comparable effect and only lasts twice as long, so explore it in any way you like.

I often keep a log of my experiences - handwritten books have been filled - and sometimes I type them into this web journal.

Errr... Have you used Salvia before?

80x is extremely strong. As somebody who has used Salvia on and off for over two decades I would say it's not something to take lightly. It's incredibly powerful.

It's not really a recreational substance but more a tool used for healing and other things.

I'm not telling you not to use it. Just use it respectfully and with intention.

BUT ABSOLUTELY have a sitter as others have said.

Start with small amounts, bong is best I find. Hold it in until you're gone. Make sure they take bong off you especially if it's glass. Ideally your sitter should be someone capable of restraining you if things get a bit wild. Everyone's different and some people can become quite animated and become a danger to themselves or others.

Throw it in the bin?

 

[Camomill]

yes, I think doseage, if you smoke it in a whole toke in a bong pull, should be a pointless endeavor to sort out with 80x extract. Just sprinkle a little or maybe more, shouldn't matter at that point of potency.
I smoked a little bowl with 40x extract on some weed I think, pulled it through kept it in and had my perceived reality definately changed as a whole. That change occurred pretty smoothly in the passing of about 5-10 seconds. So yeah...
It held on for some time, not too sure about that...

It is not really like other psychedelics where it is more or less an overlay or intensified perception of what you would see anyways. Like perception having a foot in the sober state.
It is more like the difference between what you see with your eyes and what you see when shutting your eyelids.
Pretty much different than when they are opened.
Like pulling a curtain I'd say ^___^

Smoke it in a pipe or bong and start with a speck 80x is insanely strong. A sitter would be wise you can be quite mobile on salvia.

There are a few users here which have written of glowing salvia experiences. @pupnik comes to mind, I think @JackARoe too. Maybe use the search and include their names.

 

[emkee_reinvented]

Apply suit belt s to the couch and have a trip sitter. 80x, use a pinch and buckle up.
Metaphorically seen, but reverse the order off course. Buckle before taking off.

One of the English quotes in my signature is from Pupnik. Me thinks ?

 

[notsmokeymcpot42088]

Do like my cousin told me, pack the bong completely full use a torch lighter and make sure you get all of it --- Than let someone else pack and light a second one.....

than enjoy doing that to other people --- err sharing the experience?

Idk. But I bet you 5 bucks you dont go through all of it yourself lol

 

[F.U.B.A.R.]

I've not tried it myself, but it sounds like a pretty horrible experience to me. One to be endured, rather than enjoyed.

 

[pupnik]

it is a lot less unpleasant than 5MeO-DMT and equally as fascinating as NN-DMT or more so although the visions are less geometric they are equally sparkly;
and while not immediately a mood enhancer, the afterglow from salvia divinorum is very tonic.

A bit like the most brutal of massages. Not much fun at the time but you feel the benefit afterwards...

Geometry maybe softer but kinda squarish always folding into itself infinitel? Impossible to describe using words really...

I wonder what H P Lovecraft would have made of it.

You can only hear so much about it from other people...
I think Salvia is one of those things you have to try, to really get an understanding of it.
