Need advice for first trip.

My friend has some 20x (I think it's 20x) and that's all he could get, lowest and cheapeast at CM (local headshop, name abbreviated)

I might wind up trying it tomorrow. My girlfriend would be there as a trip sitter. Before tomorrow afternoon, I need my fellow hipforumers to pack as much helpful info into this thread as possible, especially what to do in case something goes wrong.

She's the world to me. She's willing to let me do this, and willing to help. However, I don't want to hurt her, and if something did go wrong and I didn't have her adequately prepared, I'd feel horrible about it for months.

Just need to be cautious...

Thanks for the info.

Also, what'd be better with a clay bowl out of this list:
Zippo, Bic/Mini Bic, Matches. (If it helps, I can stick three matches into a candle flame and get a really hot flame)

 

Well, if you decide to go all out and trip like only salvia will let you trip, you'll probably either sit real still and drool, or freak out and drool. I've seen both. I haven't seen a salvia tripper get particularly violent; the worst I've heard of was a guy running around and pulling his friend around by the shoulder of his shirt. I'd say it's 90% safe to have a tripper who couldn't completely physically restrain you, worse case scenario.

Then again, it's only 5 minutes.

 

I'd like advice too. I have a few large bags of dried SD leaves. What's the best way to take it?

 

I agree completely with Paulrus. I can't imagine getting violent while on a salvia journey. I realize I can only speak from my own experiences but salvia immobilizes me. I don't think I could move if I thought about it but my thoughts are never on my physical body. Most of the time I am unaware of a physical body. I have been told that when you don't realize you are still connected to your physical body it is possible to try and walk or even run and the main danger is in hurting yourself.


That is why having a sober sitter during your experience is VERY important. To keep you from hurting yourself. (falling,setting something on fire with the pipe or matches, lighter, so on....)

I have never heard of anyone getting violent but ANYTHING is possible.

Use the proper setting, relax, and everything should be safe.

 

I prefer a water pipe for cooling the smoke, and with dried leaves a torch lighter is an absolute must. Dried leaves don't contain as high a concentrate of salvinorin A and a torch allows you to burn the leaves at a higher temperature (which is neccessary) and you burn more leaf material at one time which allows a more potent hit every time you inhale.

Since the potency of leaves varies greatly, I would start by hitting the pipe 2 or 3 times and see what happens. You will know within 2 or 3 minutes how well you are going to get off.

Sit or lay in a darkened room and be sure to hold each hit as long as you can. At least 20 or 30 seconds per hit.

Some people don't feel salvia very much the first time or 2 they smoke it but don't give up. When it does happen....you will know it...

Happy traveling!!

I tried it. After two big hits, I was gone. My friend was already kinda fried.

I didn't get any visuals other than things getting kinda fuzzy... I was dizzy, lost motor control (I was stumbling around a barn loft like a drunk, and it was fun) and laughing my fool head off. My friend handed me the bowl for a couple more hits. I got a good one. BIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig hit. Then I went to take another, he made me laugh, and I blew the pipe empty. He was pissed for like, two seconds, and I was laughing, he started laughing, we laughed. It was sooooooooooooo awesome. We were over at his girlfriend's place.
I'm in a relationship, but it doesn't mean I don't look on occasion. His girlfriend's sister was good lookin'.

My friend and I had a sword fight with foam swords. We tied, even though I know a little bit about fencing. he did alright. His girlfriend, I almost took the sword out of her hand.

I'm gonna try and build a bong this week, because this weekend, we're gonna have more salvia, and we'll have herb. It'll basically be an all day trip. Saliva, and when we come down, herb.

Honestly, I don't know why anybody would want to make Sally D illegal...
Best high I've had so far in my entire life, and it healed me. I was miserable...
I'd had a horrid fight with my parents (on 4/20, no less. So I was in a reeeeeeeeeally bad mood) then I went and smoked up, and I've been smiling at everything ever since. If this stuff can pull a man out of that kind of depression, who knows what it can do medically?

I see no reason to illegalize it. Make it an 18+ thing, fine. That'd be alright with me, but... Illegalization? No. Not cool. It's currently legal, and it did something that only one other thing can do... 1/4 pound of chocolate... and Sally D won't rot my teeth or make me gain weight like mad. So, I see no reason to outlaw it. Ladies and gentlemen, start writing respectful letters to your senators and representatives. Let's fight this illegalization crap.

 

Anyone can take a beating for 5 minutes.

 

If you can't......You don't need to go down Sally Lane!!
