so i tried salvia for the first time today i was very very nervous about it first and i have an anxiety disorder so i was even more nervous my friends stories of there bad trips just kept replaying in my head and i coudlnt get them out. but i didnt want to do it for the wrong reasons just to have fun or because i thought it would be cool i really wanted to expierienced something ive never expierienced before and just to have an awesome trip so we were in the woods on a beautiful trail, me and me 2 other friends so i took a few hits of the 20x and held it in like 20 secons later i felt really really warm and tingely. then my perceptions changed and everything seemed like it was popping out. like a pop up book. i felt like i was alice in wonderland. walking down the path of the trail the trees look so cool, they would sort of seem flat and i felt so connected with nature but i was sad i didnt have some mind blowing expierienced veryone talks about where they like travel to a new reality. do you think i may need to smoke more or hold it in even longer next time? i know the next time when i do it i will definatly not be as nervous as before. it was pretty cool but i wanted it to be better
Yeah. I defenately didnt take 20 minutes to feel like that. 1 minute and everything seemed harder, and i feelt like i was being pushed around by somone. Try be in a good mood next time. Not too much on your mind etc.. 1 nice hit of that 20x would defenately be enough. Hold it in for 10 seconds or so. 1 hit of 10x worked for me. =) Your fine looking too.
<reposing from another topic, since it fits more here lol> I just did my first saliva experience (I think it was 13x) and it was something all its own in my opinion. Right after I took the hit (and a half, half of my first hit fell out, so I took half, then got a fresh pack) I sat down and thought somebody threw me inside of a pringles container... then it hit me full force. I instantly forgot I smoked the stuff and I forgot what existance was, I thought I was under a truck being dragged along the road over the same pot hole continiously. Then my friends were staring at me, and time froze... I thought I was stuck in time, they said I was moving weird because in my minds eye I had to get in the exact position I was in when I "froze time" or I would be stuck in this eternal limbo. Some people walked in my roomates dorm (where I was) and told them not to bother me I was on salvia, I thought everyone was ignoring me (It was like those PSA where they do some shit like offer someone weed, then freeze and someone says "what would you do in this senerio?") I've tripped for real before and this was so much different in my opinion. I don't know if I can say it's more intense, honestly it seemed to be in a different spot all together. I thought it was real and I was trying to fix it the whole time, I thought I would be stuck there forever, It was more of a mindfuck then a trip... but fun non the less.
yeah... Thats not what I expected tripping to be. I was just so confused. I had kind have forgotten that I smoked it. I was out of control, but deep inside my mind, all I could ask myself was "Why is everything so wierd and hard... why am I acting like this?" Still a cool experience. But I agree with it being a mind fuck rather than a trip.
->maryjanegirl420 being aware of the conflict of wanting something because someone else says they have (or have had) it, or wanting something because it is natural to you, is very important at this stage. your character is still formative or else this would not have been the issue in your report. attaching the self to symbols of defiance helps temporarily to define the self separately from the family. salvia, however, is about your inner family. many people find the ridiculous things from dreams and family amazing, some want a more powerful kick in the head - and they will get it too. these experiences are equally psychedelic, you did experience the "alice in wonderland" parallel mentation of being awake yet immersed in a dream. take time to explore these issues without any drugs at all. they are very real issues. real paradoxes.
you need to hold in as long as you can - but keep your eyes closed. when you keep walking arround and looking arround the mind get's all the outside info so can't focus on the inside info.
yah, i heard that perfectionists prefer, pitch blackness, for you to lie down, or sit down, quietness, or maybe some music that your comftorable with in the background. and u get the best trip from that, lots of closed eye visuals.
Alright when i first smoked salvia I just started rocking back and forth and laughed alot by the time that I was aware of the effects thirty minutes had gone by. I also felt awesome for the rest of the day.
Doseing you're first time and expecting to get a OOBE is foolish, smoke some salvia, get used to the light-intoxicated state it gives you, then work up into a full blowen mind changing perspective shifting battery of pictures, colours, sounds, and smells.. as well as a world that people rarely see.. still.. salvia takes time.
my first salvia trip was with only with 5x and i smoked half of a gram i think and i tripped balls. i took like 3 hits and blacked out then woke up and was freaking out. i didnt laugh or anything at all. ill find my trip experience (i wrote it down). edit: heres my trip " Let me start off by saying..holy shit. This plant totally kicked my ass. First off, I am 17 and haven't really experimented with any drugs. I learned about salvia through a friend at school and for the past month or so I've been researching and admiring it's effects. Last night, a friend of mine, bought 1gram of 5x extract at our local headshop (it was from www.purplestickysalvia.com,) and we gave it a go around 7:30pm maybe. Anyways there were three of us together at the time at my friends house and there were no parents. He didn't want the house to smell like smoke so we were either going to do it outside on his porch in freezing weather, or in his garage. That was our first mistake. He went first after we divided the gram into fourths (by eye, not by scale) and he went for it. I was going to wait until he was sober to go for it, but he didn't really feel any of the effects and I was anxious after reading about it so much and have never having the trip experience before. So my other friend and I went into the garage while the previous user laid out on the couch, he said he just wanted to go to sleep. We were on the steps and we were smoking out of one of 3 homemade bongs that they had and we placed the salvia in the bowl. I'd read how you are supposed to take quick hits and hold it for as long as possible, so I did just that. Around the fourth hit I blacked out and don't remember what happened. I opened my eyes and my friend was helping me up the stairs. I guess it was only a matter of seconds but it was horrible. I then proceeded to freak out and crawl up the stairs not really knowing what was going on. It felt unlike anything imaginable. I was drifting in and out of the room between different galaxies and so on. I was freaking out not knowing how to handle it. Within 3 minutes of the first hit I was scaling the stairs up to my friends room and it felt like everyone was alien and that I was getting ripped through the floor, being yanked backwards up the stairs. *My friend said it looked just like the exorcist and it looked like something was actually pulling me* Once I was at the top I can't really recall what happened, but I do remember what I saw. It was like I was torn through the floor and into the matrix. I saw huge numbers floating by and I was just standing in the middle of it with some other person. It than proceeded to change into a huge yellow room where everything was moving extremely fast around me. I think I might have been fine with the visuals if only I hadn't actually FELT them too. It felt like my insides were getting torn around. I kept calling out to my friends that they needed to help me but they didn't really know what was going on. I tried to reassure myself that it would all be over in 20-30 minutes and I think that is what kept me sane. I was freaking out all over the place not know how to respond to such psychedelic visions/feelings. *remember I have never tripped before* I then tried to end it by going to sleep. I crashed in my friends bed and closed my eyes. 2nd Mistake. That caused me to see all kinds of horrible things. I kept shouting how much longer, how long has it been. Time went so slowly, it felt like I was in this other plane of existence for years and years. I kept telling myself it was just salvia and that I was still sane. And I kept thinking, "don't think about this cuz it will be really bad." 3rd Mistake. I than saw everything I told myself not to think of and it was horrible. I can't even describe how horrible it was. Eventually I went to sleep for 20 minutes and I don't remember from there on. I woke up after those 20 minutes still drifting in and out of the trip, I was definently coming down. I felt like oh my god that was crazy, but I still wish that I could feel like that. 4th Mistake. That threw me right back into it all for about another few minutes (years in my mind). Afterwards, I looked back on it all like it was a blur. Like an inconceivable dream. I am describing it the best way that I can, and believe me, it does not come close to how it actually was. This salvia is nothing to joke around with. It literally kicked my ass. It's such a good thing I had a sitter or else I think I would've seriously crashed into some things or fallen down the stairs, etc. etc. Definently take caution when using this substance. I want to try it again, I think that I just freaked out from the sudden bang of it all around my fourth hit and that sent me in a downward spiral. I now feel like I sort of know how to react in that type of situation to just go with it. I fought it and it made it hundreds of times worse. I think that if I just let it run it's course than I will be able to have a good time. I just don't see how that could ever turn into a good thing. All in all, I think it was a great experience. Horrible while doing it, incredible afterwards. I would recommened this to anybody except for people that freak out during the smallest of things/events. Just please, please make sure you are in a comfortable, inviting surrounding. I think being in that garage totally destroyed me from the beginning. Take care and definently use a sitter. Keep in mind this was only 1/4 gram of 5x. I have no idea what it would be like with a higher extract. If you decide to try this drug, whatever you do, be cautious and safe as this is nothing to mess around with."
