Apprehensive to do Salvia again

Hey yall, how you doing good people?
I tried salvia approx 5 times or so during last summer. The experiences were extremely intense. I did 20x extract & the "trip" was unlike anything I have ever experienced in my entire lifetime. Something I remember from my first time ever doing it was this sensation of going around & around on some sort of conveyor belt type of thing that was all working together & "connected" as one (idk what it was but that is the closest thing I can think of to describe it.) with what I perceived to be some sort of carts on it, & feeling like my arms were being taken from my body. In this state I was in, I literally had no thoughts. I didn't even know I was on a drug & I wouldn't have even known if I was alive or dead because I didn't know that I was myself anymore. it was so foreign to everything & anything in my lifetime that I could not fathom or think of any type of worldly objects, words, thoughts, etc. Afterwards when I came back to my normal self, I remember me saying, outloud, something to the effect of "omg. what just happened. that was amazing" I was so floored & in awe by what I had just been through.
I would like to try salvia again. I know this isn't really a recreational drug... but I am curious about "the land of salvia". I had done mushrooms before but salvia was truly a life changing experience for me. Ever since that trip I have become so curious & fascinated about the power of psychedelics & the thoughts/ideas/consciousness that they bring. But ever since a bad mushroom trip that happened about 2-3 months ago, I am a little apprehensive-maybe even a little scared ? about going that far down the rabbit hole again.
Anyone have some tips or advice to help prepare for a salvia experience?

Low light, soft gentle music you enjoy and a trip sitter. I feel the best way to experience salvia is to know your mind and accurately dose for the experience you want. A accurately weighed 5x dose is better than a 20x dose you can't weigh accurately.

Hey man. Thanks for the advice. Most likely the trip sitter will be in the next room. I've done it approx 4 times by myself & once with a couple friends. I never really knew the dose when I did it, I just packed a good amount into a small bowl & burned all of it. I pretty much "zeroed" the whole hit. Lol something that I recall was blowing out any little remaining smoke, then sort of thinking when's this going to happen. & instantly after that brief though being thrown into another galaxy.
Just curious, have you ever gone that far with salvia? One of my friends tried it & he could still talk & what not. Me-I was catapulted into another world entirely. Do you like salvia?

Unfortunately, at present, all I have is plain leaf and 20X also. I find that even 15mg of the 20X gets me uncomfortably spun and generates significant dysphoria. My next dose is going to be 10mg, and if that is not quite enough, then 12.5.
Salvia is an atypical psychedelic. It is more properly characterized as a dissociative with psychedelic side effects. I'd love to be able to say I could manage to like it, or even value the experience, but so far, I hate it and get nothing from it - but my experiences are fewer than 10 over the past 9 years, so the jury is still out.
The only advantage to salvia is its brevity - and for my money, properly vaporized DMT is head and shoulders above salvia experientially, and has the same short-duration advantage.

Salvia is a crazy bitch, i think most people are pretty apprehensive to do it again What helps me with the preflight anxiety is just starting low and doing controlled doses, espcially with intense stuff like salvia

Oh damn. a 10mg dose of salvia? When I packed the bowl it had to be a .1 or maybe a tiny bit under. & I would really like to try to do a DMT extraction but I literally don't even know what some of the basic termanology means... non-polar wash, a pull, stuff like that. Maybe someday I'll do it.
Yeah, salvia is pretty intense man. Hopefully this stuff will be around for a while.

There is little preparation for a salvia trip.
All you need to do is let it happen.
I have experienced what you have from salvia. There are a few different types of salvia trips (disregarding the SALVIA scale of different levels of intensity).
The major preparation tip I can think of is: Let it happen.

To really get a good experience with salvia I recommend doing it within the following parameters
1. Alone or with a trip sitter who is silently outside your field of vision 2. Sober 3. In a relaxed comfortable environment and clear state of mind

1.) Once in salvia land you won't care that someone used to be in your field of vision haha 2.) Very important! Salvia is a jelly bitch

Its just not a good idea in my experience to have someone looking at you be the last thing you see when you take off and the first thing you see when you come down (if you do actually break through because sometimes you dont)
