I had my first opportunity to experience the effects of this legal plant last night and I took it. I had my girlfriend tape it for shits and giggles.

I can't explain what happened very well but the moment it kicked in I felt like I was no longer an entity on this planet. I felt like I was a part of something bigger. I don't remember the entire trip but the first few moments were actually quite nerve racking. The tv seemed to affect the trip so next time I think I'll try it with no sound and the lights off.

Afterward I laid on my bed sweating like I ran a marathon and I experienced a few hot flashes. Other than that there were no "bad" side effects. I fully intend to try this again as it was an amazing experience. I think I'll add a little more next time.

nobody gives a shit and you're not cool.

lol, just die. :rolleyes:

I know a number of you have tried or wanted to try this so I wanted to chronicle my experiences. If you are intelligent enough to get past prince of space's mindset of "all drugs are bad cause my mom said so" and really want to expand your perception of reality then I suggest you read up on it a little. I'm not saying "go do this now" but be open to the idea. If it offends you, that's fine.

Erowid

This won't be a daily thing by any means but it's safer than alcohol and weed combined.

Mmmmm, saliva.

Can I try your saliva? ;)
 
Ive always wanted to try salvia, but its illigal in most places here in europe. Cool video, can you explain exacly what you saw? I mean, did your eyes take you to a total different place, or could you still see the walls, tv, floor in the room?
 
Awesome, thanks for sharing.

Prince of Space, the second part is subjective and the first part is obviously untrue. You're sounding like a douche on both counts.

I'll try.

After holding it in my lungs for a bit, I exhaled and then began to feel a heaviness envelop me. Halfway between sitting up and laying down I was already having visuals. In the beginning my arms seem to go back and forth....at that point i was passing something somewhere and repeating the process. I felt like I was gone and couldn't get back which was kind of scary at first.

I can't explain it any better but the music from the television commercial was n sync with this process in my mind. That's why I think the tv will be off next time.

I don't remember what happened when I said "Holy ****ing shit!" at all, which stinks because the expression on my face leads me to believe it was cool. The entire process didn't take long and after a couple minutes I started coming back. I almost yelled at my girlfriend because I thought I was asking her to get up about 10 times and she wouldn't. Apparently I only asked once :)
 
I tried Salvia twice - one day and then the following day; the 40x extract.

I don't know what I did wrong, but my mind didn't wander off to a different reality. I took a hit from the bong and as I was putting it away I thought that somehow I tilted it and accidentally drank from it (except there was nothing inside, but smoke), which was kinda weird and the taste on mu mouth was terrible.

Anyway, the objects around me started looking a bit weird at the edges, slightly comic-like, and I started seeing something in the shape of an "m" letter before my eyes. Like normally, when you look with your eyes, the view is not crystal clear, but you see little "dots" (especially when you close your eyes). So it's as if hundreds of these "m's" were made out of these dots. As I was telling this to my friends, they started laughing and it was more hilarious for me than it would normally be :p. Also, I felt a bit more... distant? Like when you change the FOV in a game, it's like you drift away from the center of the screen - well it felt slightly like that, except that my FOV obviously didn't change.

As for the second time - I saw the damn "m's" again at first and afterwards I had this feeling of hundreds of small, rectangular signs with some writing on them that I couldn't read, drifting before my eyes, though they weren't obstructing my view. I lie down and closed my eyes and they were just there, as if trying to form a sign (like on a display, where certain parts light up). I had full consciousness, though and could talk with my friends. It was a bit like inducing a state where you drift into sleep and your mind forms weird stuff.

My friend, on the other hand, after being pissed off that the first day nothing really happened for him, on the second try completely lost touch with his surroundings.

Without going into details, he felt as if he was part of a big wheel, a windmill as he described it at first. Every single person was part of this wheel and some people were going "down" in it - that's when their time was up and they ceased to exist - and other were going "up" when they were still alive. And there were lots of these wheels, in a drifting sea of bodies. His family was there; and there were 3 or 4 people looking like a "jury", that were laughing at him, that he didn't know that THIS is how life really looks like - not what he always experienced. He actually believed them for a while, until he regained consciousness.


It's fascinating.
 
I've always wanted to try it.

It's legal here, I just can't find a sitter or whatever they're called, nor can I find anywhere to buy it, maybe my dad knows someone, and he can also be my sitter. Looks like something I might enjoy.

Also lol at the video, "HOLY ****ing shhhhh hahahahaha"
 
^Just sprinkle a pinch into a bowl and smoke it. DONT roll a joint of it. Seriously. Tyguy, me and you have talked about this before so thats awesome that you finally got to try it. Good luck on the next trip, being outside is the best! I've done it several times but I stopped acouple of years ago when the feeling of being out of touch with reality really started to bother me.
 
no, i mean drying it out and stuff. or can you literally just pick the bud and light up?
 
If you get the extract it'll come in a gram bottle, just take a pinch and throw it in a bowl. No preparation required. The leafs on the other hand have to be chewed on for like 30 minutes before they have any affect, but they've never done anything to me.
 
Same as weed I'd guess.

Well, weed is a completely different drug. You can smoke weed and still be able to function.

With salvia, you don't really know how it's going to hit you. You definitely want a sitter who is sober. Make sure there is nothing dangerous around you (knives or something) and be in a position where if you roll around you won't fall. (Don't do this alone on your bed/couch unless you have a sitter)

Before you smoke you want to be mentally prepared so you have to expect the unexpected. If you are overly nervous I would suggest not taking salvia as you might freak out.

The best environment is a dimly lit, quiet one.

This drug is non-toxic but because of all the stuff that can go wrong (getting physically hurt) it's not exactly "safe".

Just be careful and obviously don't take it if you need to function 10 minutes later.

I didn't mean the smoking of it, I meant the harvesting/drying/cutting of it. That's probably the same as weed.
 
^Yea you're probably right but I've never grown them myself so I wouldnt know.
 
Me neither, but that'd be my guess, pretty much the same thing, just different effects.
 
I don't think it would be worth the effort to grow it to be honest, it's used so much less than weed is.

Plus, you would have to chew on leaves unless you know how to extract it
 
I love how you were all

"I'm sitting up- FLOP
I'm sitting up- FLOP
I'm sitting up- FLOP"

watching people trip on salvia is hilarious and awesome, as demonstrated formerly by this SA poster.

Hoffbonics! All of his videos are goddamn hilarious.

Tyguy I lol'd majorly at your video. I don't really like salvia though and I think probably with a bit more experience you won't either, it can be very frightening/uncanny/alien. I recommend you use a bong to smoke it as well, and take a bigger hit, but you did well with holding it in.
 
Trip number two resulted in me pissing my pants.

I was drunk (stupid stupid stupid) and I guess I had to pee when I smoked. All I remember is that initial feeling then blank. I came out of it with a damp sensation in my legs and ass. I figured it was the drug, what else could it be?

I will never try this with alcohol again, not sure what I was thinking. Perhaps it was because my roommate tried it for the first time last night and he was also drunk.

Besides that, I had the most vivid dreams I have ever had in my life. I don't remember the last time a dream felt so real.

Don't expect a video :)

Don't worry, you probably didn't piss yourself, it was was probably your roommates pee.
 
You don't need to be drunk to piss yourself from Salvia, it just can happen. One reason I have only ever done it with a small group of close friends.

In regards to growing and preparing it, it isn't actually very similar to weed. With salvia, all you have to do is grow the plant (hard to get, since it doesn't bear seeds, you have to purchase a cutting online) and then harvest the leaves whenever you want, dry them out, and smoke them. Extraction of dried leaves is also very simple if you wish to do that. My friend used to have a salvia plant, the first times I did it were from his.
 
That was pretty hilarious when you turned around and said "Holy ****ing shit" and proceeded to trip for another few minutes, playing with your feet and gazing at the television. Good times.

haha, well I feel a little better that I'm not alone in that category :)
 
Not sure if you posted, but what strength?

I bought some 20x last week. Took it out of a bong, but man I could not hold it in my lungs for the life of me because I'm horrible at judging bong hits and take them too massively. Next time I'm taking it out of a pipe.
 
Iced I'd recommend still using the bong. You're supposed to take ginormus hits, if you're afraid of smoking too much just don't put more salvia in the bowl than you want to smoke. Trust me from a pipe (eg not water filtered) the smoke is extremely harsh and tastes even worse (and I don't think it works as well either).
 
The next time I try it I'm using a bong. Unfortunately I broke my RooR recently :(

I'll give it a try. Literally as I inhaled I could hold it in for maybe a second before coughing it all out so it seemed like I could have done much better if I held it in longer.

But all will be well if I take smaller hits lol

Oh, and ya the smoke tasted like shit.

*Edit* Oh, yeah the alcohol might make things rough. I didn't want to try to mix them especially since I had 20x lol
 
jesus, 20x and alcohol would probably make you shit your pants instead.
