Salvia Dvinorum 5X, first time
To give you an idea of my experience with tripping, I've taken shrooms atleast a dozen times and tried acid once, generally in the comfort of my own home or dorm room. Ofcourse, when my friend and I tried acid and everyone told us to avoid places with strange people and avoid public transportation at all costs, the first thing we did was hop on the T and go to Hooters, but that's a (fun) story for another time.
This story is about the first time I tried Salvia Divinorum extract. I had smoked leaves before and enjoyed the experience, and I was looking forward to trying the extract as I'm a big fan of tripping and the prospect of being able to trip for just a short while and then continue on with my day seemed very attractive. I was just hanging out in my room with a few friends who weren't going to try it then, but they were also experienced trippers and intended to try it if my trip went well. I had read that the best way to smoke it is just ripping a full bong bowl in one hit and holding it for as long as you can. I did this, holding it for about 20-30 seconds (though it felt like minutes) and started tripping immediately after exhaling.
I don't remember what I was holding at this point, probably a lighter, but i just dropped it on the ground and, according to my friends, sat wide-eyed and silent for a few minutes. My first thought was that I had done something wrong and was sick, because the feeling I got was so intense and came on so quick. I was no longer in my room surrounded by my friends, I was laying on the ground staring someone in the foot.
As I stood up, a voice said that it was time for me to wake up, that my trip was over. I stood up completely and did not recognize the person before me (I'm guessing it was just some random person I'd seen while working in a hotel that day) but they reached out to me and told me again that it was time to wake up and rejoin the real world. I began to wonder if the salvia had actually awakened me from a trip I was stuck in, I no longer believed my life as I knew it was real, accepting this trip as reality. I asked where I was, and he told me I was in my room. At this point, he began to fade away and I was in my room again. My friend then repeated that I was in my room and asked if I was okay. I tried to tell him I didn't understand anything, but I'm told all that came out was some mumbling.
I then told them I felt like I was sick, and I ran to the bathroom. For some reason, I doubted my ability to control myself. After a couple of minutes in the bathroom with no sickness, I felt more confident and returned to my room. I still had a feeling I can only describe as very trippy. I was very confused and worn out, and very wet with my own sweat. I curled up on my bed and watched them play video games for a few minutes as I fell asleep. I woke up two hours later still sweaty and feeling trippy, though it was not nearly as intense, and hung out with them while I came down. The only visuals I remember were that initial intense trip.
Since then, several of my friends have tried smoking salvia, only in smaller quantities. Noone has tried enough to trip that hard off of it, and I am somewhat afraid to try that much again, as it was the most intense trip I've ever had and I don't think I'm ready to do it again. For the time being, I'm very happy eating mushrooms and searching for more acid.
