 My first salvia experience.

So I used to come here and write things years ago and I'd like to start doing it again if only just a little bit.
That said I am going to recall for you all my first real salvia experience as I have recently started picking at my brain with it again.
A year and a half maybe two years ago I was in a naval out-patient rehab facility in Okinawa Japan because I was a drunk throughout my stay in the service.
The therapy and the rehabilitation itself was a joke and I was considering failing it and getting kicked out. Continue with my life so to speak.
During that time I explored the area we were in and found that it was rich in sub culture activities. There I experimented with a range of things from AMT and 5-MeO-AMT to Datura and DiPT. And from synthetic mescaline to salvia and back around to 2c-b
However those things are all other stories in them selves and I may or may not share them in the future.
Today we talk about the Salvia and I guess its absolute bizarreness.
I found a head shop that was selling 25x salvia, I bought 2,800 yen worth or about 30 bucks worth.
The guy behind the counter told me as best he could that what he sold me was about four doses.
He told me not to drive while under the influence or try to swim.
Driving wouldn't have been a problem, I couldn't have driven if I had wanted to, the Navy wouldn't let people get a Japanese drivers license unless they were a certain rank or they had a spouse and children.
Being so, the time I spent not drinking I spent walking around with headphones on exploring.
It had become a joke between me and a friend of mine that the beach was where the real therapy started so swimming aside I hiked down to the beach.
Along the way I had purchased a drink from a vending machine that came in a "bottle-can"
"Who can?"
"The bottle can!"
The "bottle-can" was bright yellow and blue and the drink that it contained was some kind of nasty diet/health drink.
I poured it out.
I have read a bit about salvia in my past and heard that a bong was the best way to smoke it, I didn't have a bong so I decided to construct a steamroller out of the bottle-can. A good steamroller has never failed to give me great hits.
The construction of the apparatus took about 15 minutes, it was simple and efficient and I was impressed with my handy work.
Looking at the bag containing the four doses I thought back to the first time I smoked salvia. It was straight leaves then and I got right up to the point where something bizarre was going to happen but it never did.
So I put it all into the bowl and sat in the shadows beneath a palm in the sand twenty feet up from the beach. The sun was going down and I was taking a minute to soak it in before I hit my brain with a chemical I have heard interesting things about but haven't fully experienced.
The sun began to crest the horizon when I took the first hit.
Keeping the jacked up flame from my lighter on the leaf in the bowl as I filled the chamber and then my lungs.
I held it.
And held it.
And...
e x h a l e d...
And immediately cleared the chamber and held it
And held it.
And held it some more.
"If a thing is worth doing it is worth doing right."
I held it until I started seeing spots and my body was fighting for oxygen and then I

And waited, it seemed like forever I waited and nothing happened.
Or, like I said, so it seemed.
I realized I had no idea what I was doing
Or where I was
Or who.
And the apparatus I was holding looked way to bright and yellow
Way to bright and blue.
I had no idea what it was.
It frightened me with a fear that ran deep into my marrow.
And I was disgusted with it so I through it towards the ocean and forgot about it.
As I stood up my entire world began to cube off and I felt like a puppet.
I felt like my body was a 3 dimensional puppet and my mind was controlling it from another higher dimension.
I understood that my mind was way to sophisticated to fit into the 3rd dimension so it experienced this dimension through the body.
Our bodies, the puppets that they are are also sophisticated sensory recording machines that broadcast this information to our minds dimensions away.
There was and incredible pressure all over my body and the feeling that I was tumbling in cubes and fragments all over the place. The universe was swaying and i realized things were so bizarre because I had done something but I didn't know what.
I did something to cram my sophisticated mind into the simple third dimensional space so it could experience it first had and that I was over loading my mind with raw sensation.
I decided to lay down in the sand and close my eyes.
Writhing in strange tingling cube delight I could feel a profuse cold sweat stick to my skin.
All the rolling and squirming in the sand was making the beach stick to the cold sweat on my body, it felt uncomfortable and satisfyingly comfortable at the same time.
I didn't care about anything, the patterns on the inside of my eyelids were so intensely beautiful and abstract.
Eventually I stopped squirming around and began to collect my wits.
I realized that it worked.
That I broke through and it was strange and hardly describable.
Looking at the sky and then at my watch I realized that very little time had actually elapsed. Fifteen maybe twenty minutes from first toke to, "Wow I was rolling in the sand, what the fuck just happened?"
It felt like forever.
I spent the rest of the night listening to mellow music and thinking about the beauty and strangeness in life.
I decided then that I would stick out the rest of my contract and when I got out I would devote a portion of my life to finding the ultimate strangeness.
And here we are today.
Cheers!

the little peices of them that I steal.

Very well written. I hope the salvia and your experiences help you to cope with the alcohol problem. I find that mushrooms and salvia help you to explore your inner world whereas alcohol merely helps you to avoid it. Good luck!

I have no need for your luck with coping with alcohol my friend. Im not a slave to it now and I wasnt back then.
It wasnt the alcohol the problem but rather it was me.
Then I was a slave to my own self destruction, but I over came that and yes the entheogens helped.
Bless these wonderful plants. And bless you too, Blackhart.
Cheers!

Basically what happened to me my first time smoking salvia. People asked me what happened and what it was like and I couldnt find any words to describe it. All I could describe was that my friends faces became (bare with me on this one) a digital second hand on a clock and it was ticking with a long trail of colors behind it. But you sir, certainly described what happened using words. I didn't know how to explain it. Good report. Very thorough.
