Compounded Experience. Culprit?

Hi! I just joined up today after many years of browsing BL because I had a rough and perplexing experience last night:

I smoked, what for me is, a normal amount of marijuana which should have just had me a bit dopey, flicking out of memory/coming back every minute or so and odd time-perception. It normally kicks in like clockwork after 8-10 minutes at full-strength for 2 hours then tapers to (percievably) nothing after 3,5 hours.

This was very different and there are unfortunately many exceptions but I don't know a lot about how any of them might have caused it.

  • I had 2 dosages of Dexamphetamine 5mg. 2 tabs at 0630 and another 2 at 1330 (very sloppy administration).
  • I'd eaten two light snacks at the beginning of the day and had about 2 cups of water through the whole day (I usually require a lot more).
  • I had 1mg of Alprazolam (first time taking Benzodiazepines) 3 days before.
  • My pipe had a little bit of residue of Salvia 20x and I think I might have inhaled same combined marijuana/Salvia ash.
  • When I smoked it at 1800, I was very paranoid walking in a back alley and took it all in one hit because someone was walking towards me. I did seem to hold it mostly in for walkinga few blocks to the train station.

The thought of simply having a bigger hit and holding it longer than usual had occured to me but I've had "too much" before and this wasn't like "lots of dope" but very different.

It kicked in slowly and steadily over 1 hour until I was near collapse after a long train trip and walk home which is very different to the peak after 10 minutes that I mentioned earlier.

For the first 15 minutes I felt fine then at one point I realised that I was dipping in and out slightly like with Salvia and the music I was listening to had a definite echo (that it doesn't). Never experienced an echo before. I also had some wierd visual problems with depth perception that scared the HELL out of me and made me feel well nausious: a section of a train platform did not make sense to me - what it was, where it was and how people were walking between it and me haha - not worth explaining.

Another idea I had was that I'd inhaled some solid Salvia residue but I've read that ingestion doesn't achieve anything so in my state I was convinced that I'd just awoken dementia or some other illness and as to be expected, I presumed I'd be like that forever!

I'm fine now. Just very confused about the whole experience. At home, closing my eyes would make me break through akin to with salvia and I'd disappear for a while. I couldn't hold down a bite of bread but didn't lose anything else like liquid or other food I'd had.

Sorry for such a long-winded post. You're probably all thinking "...so? 8)" but I just thought I'd write it all down in the hope that anyone can be like "Definitely the Alpraz - don't mix that in future!".
 
I'm fairly certain 1mg of Xanax would be out of your system by three days time.

Was this your first time smoking herb since trying the salvia? I've heard that psychedelics like that can alter a cannabis high (ever since doing DXM, I get nice CEVs o herb alone).
 
I'd smoked marijuana twice since my last Salvia struggle but both times were very small amounts just to bring me down a bit, not get "stoned".

If that's the case that Salvia altered my cannabis high, I might be up shit creek haha. Not keen on having my mind ripped apart every time I want to relax!

Edit: Thanks for responding. I'll give the same amount of cannabis a go on a normal day to eliminate the other variables. Fingers crossed; I haven't fucked my head and turned marijuana into a somewhat-milder, very-longer-lasting Salvia...

Dexamphetamine + Cannabis always leads to a bit more trippy high for me. Salvia has never made any alterations to my smoking habits, unlike LSD and mushrooms.

So I'm going to rule out the xanax, the salvia, and go on the assumption you aren't blaming the weed being "laced" or something or other. If that's the case, I'd say its the dex-amp. Have you ever tried this combo before?

I honestly doubt that you have, but I just thought that I'd mention it could happen. There's a thread here in CD where a user complains that salvia changed his high. I haven't read the thread, but it's around here somewhere.

The weed's the same bag that I've been using for a while. It has dried a bit brown from its original green but smoked it many times with nothing similar.

Regarding the concurrent dex. use: I have had as much dex. with cannabis alone and this genius thought for his first Salvia experience (after a night of dex.), he'd load the pipe with weed as a stopper so the fine Salvia granules wouldn't just drop into the pipe and get inhaled before burning.

I'm still at a loss though.

Couldn't find it but read some Salvia trip reports and reminded myself how scary it is... :\
 
Clean pipe.

I suspect the paranoid mindset (someone you think following you) plus the amphetamine, plus possibly a trace of salvia (enough to remind you of it?), and possibly more weed than intended all contributed to it.

Beginning a smoke with a paranoid mindset can really wreck the experience ime...

Thanks! :D This does sound like it could be all that it was. It was the first time I've smoked sneakily/in public and wasn't aware that it could impact it so much - will clean pipe!
