Here is my first trip report..
I'm 22, 180cm, 75kg and i smoked and rolled before.
I did want to try LSD for some months but yesterday i had my first psychedelic experience with Salvia..

I was at some friend's home with him and another one. We locked ourselves in the room(sisters were home, his grandma and an other dude).
I put some deep-house music on, closed the lights(only monitor was on) and got ready.. I remember that i was pretty nervous. They told me some weird ass reports about their trips and i was pretty much "oh shit, oh shit..".

I think it was 5x but i don't know how much my friends put there..
Also, i used a bong.
I lighted it but didn't manage to take a good breath. Holded it in, and after ~10 seconds i let it go and guy knocked on the door and got in the room.
In the same time i saw some "dottish" patterns that felt like pushing me from above. I struggled to act normal and didn't let go cause i didn't really liked that the 'new' guy was there. While fighting with the effects i was analyzing what's happening to me and explained the others what i felt. A very strange taste was present and couldn't take it from my mind.
The 'new' guy left and the i chewed some gum(that taste was horrible) and decided to have one more try.

Lighted it, holded much much longer than the first time and walked to the back of the room and watched through the window. The dots or cylinders(or what in the world they were) started to show up.... The taste as well. I remember that i looked back to my friends that were sitting down but i couldn't see them too good cause of the 'dots'. The 'dots' were organizing into some massive shapes that were above me and pushed me down really really hard. By now i couldn't see anything that was 'real' cause of the big shapes that were above me. Neither my friends were there. I also remember some kind of flashes where i could see myself(some kind of 3rd person view).
Next i tried to crawl up from under the shapes but i was very confuse cause i felt like i was looking down(and i was) and not up like i was seeing the things. I remember that i dropped some saliva on the floor cause i was trying to say something. The torso of one of my friends showed up above the shapes and i was really really glad cause i knew he was real. By this time i thought i should go to him but i was very afraid cause i didn't know if i'm standing straight or i was down in my knees. I really wanted to go to him but i couldn't move cause i was afraid that if i move i will fall and hurt myselft.
The thing that really puzzled me(and scared the shit out of me) was the fact that no mather where i was turning my head to(left-right, up-down) the image didn't changed and my friend was still in the same position. I was very confuse and disoriented.
I remember that i struggled to get out from under the shapes and crawl up to my friend(that's how i saw the things). I was struggling to get to touch something that i knew was real. I was literally struggling for reality... :(
The horrible taste i felt was something chemical metal-like and it still haunts me. I remember that the taste hurt me then. I can't explain how but it did..
When i touched my friend i 'woke' up. And God, i was happy. Then i found out that actually i was down in my knees holding his leg.

My friends told me that all the trip was under 3minutes but i thought it was under 10seconds.


I don't know how the salvia trip can be something nice. I think it's way too brutal with your brain. It cut me completely off from reality. I couldn't say where i were, i couldn't hear the music at all, i was totally disorientated and that's were my fear came from. I was constantly struggling for reality..

I know that the setting wasn't too good so i will repeat the experiment one more time but i will do it in open space in a sunny day this time.
I also hope that LSD won't cut me that bad from reality cause if it does, i'm not sure i will do it. An 8h trip like the one i had is just too much for my brain...

Sorry for the loooooong report and thank you if you took the time to read it.
My best regards !

Salvia and LSD are two completely different experiences. Start low with LSD and you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
 
^^ Yeah, I agree, Salvia is freakin hardcore. It's a totally different trip than LSD (or even Mushies). The hallucinations are vivid and appear real rather than trippy. To the OP, I had done LSD and Mushrooms several times over the course of several years and Salvia freaked the shit out of me. LSD won't "cut you from reality" like that. You can still focus and think (for me anyways).
 
its some scary shit....

I love how everyone is like oh, its just saliva...bull fucking shit, that shit will fuck u up more than weed....
 
yup.. it truly blow my mind off.

Won't mess around with it too soon..

looking forward for the lsd experience.

Thank you all for the replies !
