FIrst Time Salvia experience

OK, I have read and got much out of everyones trips reports so its time i put something back in.
Last week i had the opportunity to try Salvia for the first time. After hearing much about it, i was realy keen to give it a go. So i went over to a friends and we settled in for what was going tobe a VERY full on experience.
I packed the cone (prob about 80mg) of the 5x extract. Using a jet fire lighter (as i was told it works better with a hotter flame)
I pulled the cone, suprisingly easily, it wasn't harsh at all. I waited. 10 sec. nothing. 20 second starts making weird noises, feel stoned. 30seconds. Now the fun starts.
The world appeared to jump about 30 degrees over and over. Similar to K, but much more pronouced and intense.. So intense that my head litrally got knocked about. Then comes the laughing, I couldnt' stop, it seemed like forever but was probably in reality only a minute or so. As things intensify, I lean back against the wall. Now what happens totally freaked me. I feel like i melted into the wall, and became the wall. As this happened I scared myself and turned, *snap* back to semi reality, but with the jumping still happening. Then i decided this was to intence to stay amoung my friends. I went to get up and said "I have to go inside".. then sat down again. Then repated this over and over for about 7-8 times (this happened in reality as well as i later discovered) I eventually got inside. So far the trip had felt like it was going for 20-30 minutes, but in reality it was probably only 2-5 minutes. I finally got inside, and Laid on the couch. I had begun to sweat, yet felt very cold. Then I had a tingling/prickling sensation come over all my skin.. This quickly dissapeared, but i must say that it wasn't the nicest feeling. At this point i became a bit paranoid (thinking it had been going on for too long and I just wanted it to finish). This fairly quickly disapeared as reality came back.
After it had finished, my first thoughts were "thank god that is over, I don't realy want to do that again". It was very full on, and the paranoia towards the end wasn't to flash. But as the days past after it, I felt the need to try it again, in a better environment.
I did, this time in a bedroom , dark lighting, on the bed, with some quite tribal music playing. This experience was MUCH nicer, I think partly because I knew what to expect, and partly because of the environment. It seemed much more subtle this time.. More like cid, with some effects being the walls breathing, the hair on the arm appearing to "float" like a water current was washing over it. I didn't get any negative feeling from this experience, and i would recommend that you dont give up after just one try with salvia. I would also recomend a sitter, and a quite "homey" environment for it.

i tried salvia for the first the other night under the same conditions as you (i.e one cone of the 5x strength, in a room with friends). i don't really remember what happened during my trip, only what happened as i was coming off the trip. it wasn't an extremely intense experience and i went and sat alone in my room shortly afterwards, however i started to freak out when by myself.
the next morning i had another cone and my trip was more intense and i remembered more of it. but i really felt as though i was in the wrong place and i wanted to get out and for the trip to end. also, i have a really strong sense of dejavu whilst i am tripping.
salvia is such a weird drug. whilst it wasn't the most enjoyable experience i would like to try it again,in a different setting like out in a big grassy field.
 
Yeah isn't that prickling sensation weird? I thought so. Did you see the smiling entity and the weird swirling patterns yet. I as well as other people I have talked to have experienced this. It was soo weird.
I would say try doing Salvia completely alone with no music at all, in a dark room at night. Make sure there are no noises at all. Pack a huge bowl of the 10x extract. Take one big hit then hold it in your lungs as long as you can. Release when you are about to pass out. Now don't get up or move at all. Just lay back and relax. Try and get to a meditative state. Then enjoy. I have found that doing this greatly increases the effects of Salvia Divinorum and it takes me to a different world very quickly.
Nice report.

thanks for the advice Paradigm,i'll definately be in a different setting of some sort when i next take it. i'm still trying to comprehend what a fucking trip it is
 
i smoked 500mg of salvia one time in a small bong. didn't get that much from it. there was definately a sense of awareness and a slightly rushy feeling but not much else. maybe it doesn't work so well when ur already really stoned and comin up on pills!! i dunno. the only way i'd be tempted to try it again would be if i could get 10x extract.
