Do you like the Salvia experience?

Okay, I was just trying to find out roughly what proportion of people like the experience of salvia? I've read some sources that say that most people who try it never touch it again, yet it seems that others will keep coming back for more, even to the extent of using it daily.
I must say that I'm one of those who like it. I am still a newbie to Salvia, but I am intrigued by what she has to offer.
So, what's your opinion of Salvia?

The only time I enjoy Salvia, is when I'm not on it.

It is quite amusing to watch people consume Salvia, especially large ammounts. I myself find the experience incredibly terrifying.

Salvia Is harder to understand than any other hallucinogen in my opinion. It just seems like a true entity takes over bathing one in light and tactile hallucinations. It is best to think about it after the experience and try to figure out those feelings. If you try to understand why it should be considered so interesting while tripping on it, you words will fail your intentions. There are no words in that place. I give it an A++
Its a metaphysical journey without words: examines the nature of reality, including the relationship between mind and matter, substance and attribute, fact and value.

Its not about pain. Its about moving into another realm. allowing yourself to be taught by a being of which power you cannot possibly comprehend...

No shit, I have a friend who smokes it like weed. He'll buy some extract and smoke it over and over again all day till its gone. I don't know how he handles it. I know he gets nothing from it, so he must do it just for the instant fuck-up and for the crazy ass visual/reality. Salvia's visuals are real, there's no factor of "hallucination" while you're on it.

salvia is hardly a substance to be enjoyed IMO. I wouldn't say I enjoy it, but I use it, and (try to) learn from it, integrate my experiences into a manufacturable understanding.
So, this poll doesn't cater to my opinion of it, how about an "other" option?

I don't "enjoy" it in the traditional sense like I enjoy smoking weed and feeling euphoric, but I gain alot from it and appriciate the experiances immensely. I'm sure most people would agree.

The first time I successfully did salvia I laughed like an idiot through the whole thing. Right as I exhaled the last hit, my whole body started tingling as through there were needles piercing me everywhere, and then all of a sudden... gravity shifted sideways! I was sitting on my bed so I just fell over in the direction I was being pulled. It took me a good 3-4 tries to stand back up since I had to counteract the now horizontal gravity. This all seemed ridiculous and amazingly amusing to me so I tried to communicate my experience to them. I couldn't stop slurring because my lips were being pulled back behind me ( the direction gravity shifted) so nobody was able to understand my reportage. At this point I gave up and just laughed at the hillarity of the situation until I came down.
Funny thing is one of my friend tried it about an hour after we all did it, and he experienced the exact same thing as me, a shift in gravity, in the same direction.... weird.

Minimal mind exploration. Very physical trip, utterly alien effects. Salvinorin A & B aren't even indoles or phenethylamines, those two are quite literally, freak of nature alkaloids.

I've got tons of salvia at home but it scares the shit out of me. I've only tried it 3 times, and that was back to back.
It was an enjoyable set of experiences, but the feeling of being forced back in to your chair by some massive force is a little unnerving.

The taste is really what's stopping me from delving into it often...

I'm surprised... Most of my friends say they don't like the taste or smell of Salvia... I must be one of the few that likes it.

i too like the taste and smell.. but only of the smoke. getting the actual salvia on your tongue is something else all together.. like eating old rubber or something.

As far as smoking it goes - no..It's far too intense for me anyways. I prefer the few pinches of extract into the mouth method way more. It's not nearly as intense but lasts longer.
