This was only my 5th or 6th time experimenting with salvia, it was 40x, and each other time I have done either 60x or 80x. Well the day started out with me and 3 friends planning on tripping on various research chemicals which turned out to be bunk. We were pissed and proceeded to the local headshop and bought a few boxes of whippets and some 40x salvia.


We get back to my friend daves house where we were all chillin at and the girls we were with started doing whippets. After like 20 minutes of just doing nitrous nonstop(i love it) I asked if anyone was ready to hit the salvia. Everyone agreed and we all go to the back porch because it was a nice day and wanted to play with these little kittens we found a few days earlier. I pack daves bong to the rim of the bowl piece with this salvia, and I think thats what made my trip so intense, I've never smoked salvia from a bong, especially not with that much salvia packed in. And ofcourse, I took the first hit.

So i light the bong and take a huge rip and hold it in as long as i can and pass the bong to this girl amelia. And just start looking over at them,waiting for my trip to start. Then I looked down at this trashcan and thats when it hits me, the trashcan lid starts spinning fast as shit and starts forming into this black and purple vortex portal thingy, and then the portal starts getting bigger and comes and grabs me, and im still sitting in the exact position I was at just going really fast through this portal seeing past and what i believe to be future memories I will have, I cant recall any of the "memories" I saw but I assume they were bad as I was scared shitless. Im in this portal and I just want to get back to my friends because I can hear them talking and Im trying to respond to them but I cant see them. I finally drift back into reality for after what seemed like 6 or 7 hours, and im just thankful that im back, then out of nowhere the portal comes and grabs me and sucks me back in and im scared, and i get back to reality again and then it repeats itself maybe 4 times, each time seems like hours, then I finally get back and my friends tell me what was happening to me. They all thought I was having a great trip, I was apparently drooling and laughing and just making wierd ass sounds which was me trying to communicate with them while I was tripping, but they didnt hear what i was saying just heard wierd ass sounds coming out of my mouth.


So much more happened in this trip that I cant even begin to explain as it was so complex no words could describe it. So after all that I decided there is no way I ever want to experience something like that again, so salvia is no longer on my list of "drugs i want to keep using". But luckily later that night we got ahold of some bomb ass coke and everything went well. Well thats my story

Salvia is probably the worst drug in the world.

When I did it I lost all sense of who I was and felt as if my mind was distant from my body and felt so scatty.

Felt as if I was dreaming and I was hallucinating thinking my sister was in my car. We were parked up on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere and I suddenly felt really claustrophobic and my mates were trying to sketch me out.

I panicked jumped in my car and nearly bonneted my mate then drove around thinking I had gone insane.

Good thing with this though is it only lasts a couple of minutes then you realise everything is ok, but it still sketched me out.

Never doing it again, god knows how this stuff is legal If you smoked this everyday for a week. You would easily be schizophrenic.
 
Salvia is probably the most terrifying and reality-displacing drug there is. I wouldn't say it's the worst... it has its uses. it's just not recreational in the slightest.

I read a thread on this site where a poster claims to have smoked salvia everyday for 5 years and is doing just fine.

Now now, just a little while ago in ED you claimed ecstasy was the worst drug in the world!

Anyway, obviously "worst" and "best" are subjective terms.
Salvia is definitely unique, at least.

You guys can only speak for yourselves. I love salvia.
It's just not for everyone.

I honestly enjoy salvia, a lot. It's a drug that isn 't to be taken lightly though, but judging by your story I'm torn as to wether you made it up or not.


I advise you to try salvia in a good setting, where you can relax and possibly have someone sit for you.

If used correctly salvia can be the most intense and interesting of all psychedelics in my opinion.
 
I've tripped once on salvia, I read a bit about it before doing so, it gives such mystical experiences, I smoked it whilst mixing on my turntables not expecting a trip though I had some idea of the powers this sacred plant holds.

About ten seconds after exhaling the song in the mix broke down and phased out, at that moment I felt in a complete new state of being still in my body with my mind but felt different at the same time ecstatic almost, I then took a record off of one of the turntables and molded into it which seemed pretty amazing, I then told my brother and friend who were in the room with me 'I'd be back in a bit I think I'm tripping' or something along those lines.

I remember feeling a real high powered force pull me backwards like the wind but perfectly smooth, hard to describe, the wind/force pulled me into a tunnel, it seemed as if my soul/spirit/ what I believe to be the metaphysical part of all of us exited my body and into a large open, organic structured open space, it seemed an eternal place of timelessness and weightlessness, it was pure amazement, I didn't really feel scared, this place had a familiar but new feeling to it.

This was over a year ago now and It really has opened my mind up to the whole of this reality and universe we're all in, I've seen a glimpse of the other and it was good.

Salvia isn't really the kind of plant that can be used at parties of gatherings for a good time if you dancing or feel the need to control yourself but more of a spiritual, meditative insight can be gained from this if you respect and use it in the right setting and state of mind though it has the power to completely obliterate what is around you and in your mind but theres no need to be scared, it's been used for thousands of years and just remember you'll come back to what you 'know' of as reality!

Peace to everyone!
 
Is Savlia actually that intense? I mean, I am not knocking.. But I honestly heard it is a waste of time.. Not worth doing.. etc. etc. Do you actually have these 'expierences' like I am reading about? Is it worth the money?
 
crazy.

i've had that second wave thing. I think, yes, I'm back! and I can say one clear sentence, and then suddenly the whole trip is back and I just mumble nonsense.

my one friend drooled and pissed himself while laughing insanely for almost 8 minutes. that was only 10x.

Salvia is very intense. I, for one, enjoy it once in a great while but the trip isnt pleasant in the traditional sense. Usually the best part of the trip for me is when its over and I get to think about what the hell just happened.
 
salvia is not always enjoyable, but it is nowhere near a recreational drug.

to up and decide to 'trip out on salvia' is disrespectful and is asking for harsh experiences.
 
I wonder if a lot of the "bad press" trip stories (Salvia is brutal, evil, worst & etc.) are due to a great extent upon the speed with which it reaches peak effects. This, combined with rather ill-conceived settings (a couple of classic examples above, and numerous in other locations in BL) and overdoses (come on Tryptamind - a full bowl of 40X, WTF ;)) can create extremely difficult experiences.

Taken seriously, with forethought and mindfulness, and chewed or in tincture form it will creep up on one without the sense of being catapulted out of this reality. It can still be terrifying and freaky at times, but will mellow out gently leaving you with a sense of awe and wonder.

So no need to blame the plant. And as for the remark by bighooter "god knows how this stuff is legal" - take it easy. Just because YOU get scared shitless taking a powerful herb in a lay-by whilst your mates are trying to sketch you out - why should EVERYBODY be denied, under punishment of severe penalty, using such an interesting substance. And you chose to DRIVE, nearly running down your friend.

Funny stuff Salvia .... seems to bring out the best in some folks ;)
