I have had some salvia for a while and today I decided I would smoke some 5x extract. I had never gotten effects from the plain leaves and used a regular lighter, so I wasn't expecting much. But, you know, sometimes we are surprised by things.
So I loaded a fairly small bowl into a glass pipe and smoked it all in one go. Suddenly there was this intense buzz along the sides of my body, almost like I had just hit a nitrous balloon, only focused on certain parts of my body, rather than all over. It wasn't overwhelming. It was calming, and very nice. I thought, Boy, that's neat. But then I found myself compulsively loading another bowl, which I proceeded to smoke most of. The next thing I know I was bouncing back and forth between this reality and another, completely real reality, which really wasn't much different than this one. That is, it looked the same, but I wasn't me. I was someone else. And some woman was standing to the right of me trying to get me to go with her to what I think was some kind of pyramid -- Mayan style. Someone else was sitting to the left of me, but no one was actually there. And outside, where the Mayan temple would have been, was a man who the woman wanted me to meet. Still, though, I felt rooted in reality, as though I couldn't let go of this life. I felt I needed to close my eyes, and when I did, I saw visions which I could not even begin to understand.
And that's what was so strange about the whole experience. It was so real, but in such a different way. Sight was not only sight, it had taken on a new dimension. It was very dreamy, but not intense. When I had read reports of salvia experiences, I always imagined leaving everything behind and going into a dream world that has nothing to do with my present reality. I was completely taken by surprise.
And now I am left feeling somehow different, like that woman took something from me, or gave me something new. I came back a different person. But, apparently, the same old boy.
Ultimately, it made me realize that what we experience daily, our reality, is just a snippit of what is out there, and salvia has shown me a snippit of another existence. I cannot begin to explain the newfound respect for drugs (especially salvia) and the world around me.
Sorry there's not much more about the actual experience that I can explain. There seems to be so little to describe, yet so much actually happened in so little. Salvia has turned my world upside down and stomped all over my entire understanding of everything. I thought it might help me make some sense of it to write and see if anyone had any input. Feel free to delete this thread for whatever reason. I just had to get it out of my system.
Thanks for listening.
