Writing on salvia now, but really proud of myself for finally pulling out of the salvia experience what I was unable to remember each time before, once my head cleared, and what I only remembered again once I was under another time, and had entered this thick heavy world of salvia. Every time is the same, exact distortion: I suddenly have this rolling sensation, clockwise, which has a visual component that reveals that visual reality around me is a perfect and well done illusion composed of people holding up very good drawings of carpet, furniture, walls, and the like all around me; like watching people do the wave in a football stadium, holding up cards with partial pictures and colors and shapes on them which when assembled or fit together and viewed at a distance give the illusion of a picture or action, only here, when the cards are together, edge to edge, and arent moving, everything is seamless, perfect reality, 3 dimensional, all around. While seeing and believing this 5 minutes ago, I wrote, "Like doing the wave in a stadium only wave going doing (down?) like (only?) the crowd is like reality. Reality is made of little post cards with people (holding them) standing near you making up wall, furniture, and carpet. When smoke salvia, people break the illusion (with clockwise rolling sensation) by looking over cards at you, but before look at you they have perfect illusion created around you of a room with furniture. This is why looks like playdough...You realize that you have a crowd of people close around you hiding behind card drawings of what you thought was reality. "Reality" is a composition of sensory input, data fragments assembled into the liquid chemistry of the brain and taken as real between input and output response. Anyone else get this illusion? Or remember it? Anyway, sorry, curious if I jogged any memories, thx.
i think you nailed it right on the head about reality. ive sensed that too from smoking salvia. -hippi
hmmm.. take out the word "reality" and replace it with the word "a Salvia trip", and that's how I feel. you are a good writer able to put much of your experience into words. Although the details of my experiences are very different, the process sounds very familiar. good description.
