i've done salvia plenty of times, but the way my brain reacts to it lately has been very very weird... it just makes me feel like a boulder has fallen on my head (without the pain or being knocked out or killed), and then i feel really uncomfortable and tired. i dont get visuals but if i do enough everything i see has NO context to it. while my friends are laughing away because the room suddenly turned into a carousel for them, i am freaking out and having an unpleasant time. i'm not sure if this is the salvia trying to tell me that its not for me, or if its some type of lesson, perhaps a barrier that i wont be able to get past untill i make a certain realization or change the way i look at everything... i want to try the quid method, but im not sure i want to be in salvia-space for however many eternities can fit into an hour.. now i know that salvia is dysphoric by nature, but every trip is almost exactly the same for me.. i think that its not so much concrete molecular chemical reactions being the soul cause of my discomfort, because the experience is so uniform, even between extremely different levels of salvinorum A consumption.. like the lower level trips are just a less concentrated form of the one that i broke through on. so i think there's some type of message or concept thats trying to be conveyed... i dunno im gonna get buy a plant and forge a bond with it and whatnot, and when its big enough keep doing what feels right untill i work it out or realize that its not for me. any input?
Quit. I did. When I started losing a grip on my reality in every day circumstances I said 'that's enough'.
I always have a bad experience... the feeling from the 20 seconds puff holding , amplified by the trip , ruins it for me
It sounds like you're just as sensitive as I am. A puff or two of 5x really sends me into a very uncomfortable alternate dimension were gnomes pull all the strings and we are no more than puppets imagining that we have free will. Regular leaf in a joint should work well enough if you are that sensitive, it works for me.
salvinorin a is a strong chemical. Why are people shocked when it's an intense experience? I don't mean this sarcastically, but really...salvia is not catnip.
there is plenty of macho beer quantity consumption culture out there which is not very scientific, but relates strongly to atavistic competition games.
one full bowl of salvia 20x smoked all in one hit and held for about 20 seconds and your not even in reality anymore sometimes i get stuck in objects in my trips, i got stuck in a chair, in a house and a porch awning.
