Date- May 4th 2002

Setting - Basement, on a bed, no lights, no sound.

Breathing apparatus - small 12 inch glass bong

Lighting tool - Small butane torch lighter

Substance - Approx. 250mg Salvia divinorum, 10x extract

Now just to give you all a little background before I go into my experience...

My friend and I purchased 5 grams of standard salvia leaves. We began to experiment with salvia after reading on it for about a month. There were three of us sitting on the floor around a single candle in a completely dark and silent room. We used a small glass pipe approximately 3 inches long with a standard lighter. This only resulted with a slight head buzz but no profound changes. We also began laughing uncontrollably after I began laughing and stated "Something's funny."

The next attempt was with one of the same friends. Same dark and silent room but we were now equipped with a small butane torch lighter. Let me just tell you... it's rough to smoke salvia through a 3 inch glass bowl with a torch lighter unless you're used to breathing in extremely hot air... silly me! Same effects. Mild head buzz and a bit of laughter.

I'll skip the next few instances and get to the chase... as you can see... salvia does require a bit of 'practice' I guess you could say... to either reach a level where your body will react the desired way... or maybe just finding out the correct method of smoking... anyways, without further adieu...

1930 Hours - I sit on the edge of the bed with my back facing the wall so that I can fall back without hurting myself. My sitter is sitting directly in front of me ready to take the bong from my grasp should I become incoherent. I place my mouth on the tube and activate the torch lighter. I apply the flame directly upon the quantity of salvia in the slide and suck in as hard as I possibly can. I placed my hand over the tube to keep the remaining bit of smoke from coming out and held it on for approximately 25 seconds. My world seemed to change very quickly and I exhaled, placing my mouth on the tube to clear the chamber of the remaining smoke.... after that the world seemed to slip away.

T:1930:30. My world completely melted away. I do not remember anything after right then but my sitter reported that I mumbled something incoherently and then laid back and was completely still. From my own perception I was taken back into my past, to my grandmothers house as a child with my aunt standing there speaking to me. I do not remember any words being spoken, just the fact that we were talking. Moments after that I am ripped from that place and thrown into nothingness. I began to struggle slightly in my mind I suppose.. struggling to comprehend that I did not exist. Reality came to me in waves and I could not grasp any of it. I began searching through my life, through everything I had been through for some sign or evidence that I had ever been real but I could not find it. I began to despair this, as I suddenly realized that my whole life meant nothing because none of it ever happened... because I never existed.

I was unaware, the entire time, that I had smoked salvia. I was unaware of what I had been or where I had been before this experience... it was as if I had always existed in the state that salvia took me to. The waves began flowing towards me and I struggled to grasp but still I couldn't find any evidence that I was real or simply put, what reality was. I had no idea. Very slowly I began to regain consciousness. When I was coherent enough to remember I was in a room and laying down, I told my sitter to "bring me back"... to make me real again. He turned on the flashlight but that was not enough. I had him turn on the whole light.

t:1940.00 The trip is completely over, mentally anyways. I get up slowly and begin to express what sort of intense experience I just had. I was grabbing everything, feeling it, touching it because it was real and I was so glad to be real again, myself. The physical feeling is very very had to describe... my body continued to tingle as I believe it did the entire time I was in the company of salvia and continued to remain that way for approximately 20 minutes... and even thinking of what I just experienced brought back intense emotions that came from it.

Well, this is as best as I could describe my experience... I hope whoever reads this and is planning on meeting Lady Salvia takes this and uses it as best they can. I was a bit skeptical myself about how powerful Salvia was and she showed me that she did not fuck around. Take her very seriously and treat her with respect and she will return the feelings. It is NOT something to do for fun. I suggest being in a peaceful state of mind before attempting to smoke this wonderful creation.
 
Nice report...

Has your breakthrough satiated your desire to try more salvia, or are you going to have another go?

Welcome to bluelight %)

unfortunately you did. if u guys have read up for about a month you must have visited erowid. there it says that the recommended dosage lies between the 50 and 100 mg range, 250 is waay too much, at least imo. people shouldn't be using those insane amounts of salvia extract if u hadn't had a salvia breakthrough before. build ur way up, as with all drugs.

i'm just glad you liked it and didn't get traumatized :)
 
It has been quite some time since I've smoked salvia, however I do still have some sitting in my dresser drawer which I plan to use again soon.

As far as the dosage goes, I've honestly tried only smoking a pinch and nothing really happened. Perhaps it was the quality of salvia I was smoking and it wasn't quite the best, but I needed that 250 to get me.
