First experience with salvia, scary
    #5670310 - 05/24/06 09:14 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I'm pretty ignorant and inexperienced when it comes to all this, I've been smoking pot for just a few months, and rolled for the first time a few days ago. That's pretty much it. After learning about salvia for the first time today, a friend and I decided to buy some 13x. I managed to take a single hit before I lost control.

It's to difficult for me to try to explain, but I felt like my body was changing into different forms. I couldn't understand why, because I had forgotten the fact that I had taken that hit.

I had a horrible feeling of complete hopelessness. I felt like I lost a part of my brain, and would never be able to function again. I was so confused, and lost, it scared the shit out of me. I was trapped forever, but it only actually lasted about 10 minutes.

I've been extremely curious about experiencing shrooms, but now I'm a bit paranoid. I read the good reports, and I want to experience that, but I apparently couldn't handle the feeling of not being in control of myself.

Am I getting to paranoid from this single trip and trying to assume it will be the same? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I guess I just want to be reassured I will be able to enjoy the trip, because I am still curious, just also freaked out now.

Don't worry- mushrooms are nothing like salvia, absolutely, positively nothing like salvia.

Obviously you got some powerful salvia extract too, try working with a smaller dose, as the stuff has some good effects well below the complete mindfuck/memory eraser stage you got to.

^^^^^Great advice.

Pretty much everyone who has smoked Salvia has had at least one terrifying experience. Mine was my first time as well, I could not find a comfortable place in mind no matter what, just insane critisisms and scolding.

Mushrooms are much more welcoming, but intentions go a long way for both.

read everything you can
being assured is going to be fake for you.
be informed

don't expect anything from something you haven't done before.  just try to ride it out as best you can, and stay relaxed.  just remember, you're going to come back, and when you do, you can figure out what the hell it all means.  good luck

:shineon: :peace:

Thanks for the information. Yea, I jumped into this with practically no research, but It's as lesson I definately won't forget for future sessions of anything else.

I think what added to the bad experience was the fact that I did not know the guy to well that I did it with. He's a neighbor in my apt. complex and we've spoken occasionally, and smoked pot a few times together. I just moved to the area so I haven't had much opportunity to make friends I can trust.

I remembered when I was starting to get control of myself, I didn't like him being there with me, and I had the urge to call someone to come over and help me, but I also knew this was a short term feeling.

It's just the next day, but I'm considereing trying salvia again. I hated it, but being such a short trip, maybe it's a good tool to help mentally prepare me some more for when I do get my hands on some mushrooms (which I'm sure will be months until I get settled into FL.) Anybody think this might be a bad idea?

So I decided to try salvia again. I called up a friend that I was more comfortable around, and she came over to help calm me incase I started freaking again. I also had the bright idea to record myself on my webcam to see how I acted.

What a let down. I took a huge hit, held it in for over 30 seconds. Very briefly, maybe 5 seconds, I felt like I was talking in blocks, each word I was making myself pause. Then I started thinking "I'm not really messed up, I'm making myself do this on purpose." And I stopped. I felt a bit.... off, but that was about it. I ended up taking 2 more huge hits, but nothing other than a little disorientation.

I guess since I rushed in yesterday with no knowledge about it, I was taught a lesson. Oh well.

try giving salvia a couple nights off before the next round. -i also tried smoking more after the initial reaction and found it unable to re-experience. check out the post labeled "salvia 20x in FL" or something like that for some more input. -a very strange experience indeed but interesting. -i noticed that having a trusted friend (thats mostly silent for the first 5min) around makes it more jolly almost in that youre trying to explain the visuals/altered reality in vain and that somehow makes it all the more funny...? after the first 5 or 10 min you should just be kinda stoned-ish...maybe cause the salvia hits the opiod receptors...

anyhow, as for psilocybin, the experience is much different, although kinda along the same lines. shrooms should be taken in a comfy place with folks you trust. the first 10 or 20 minutes can be a little overwhelming, but its MUCH easier to reassure yourself and remind yourself that "hey, im just tripping" and the next 4 or so hours are gonna be just fun as hell. -remember youre gonna be fine, and to just enjoy life while you have the chance, youll notice the beauty of life in EVERYTHING and it becomes a very worthwhile experience. salvia differs in that you immediately forget that youre 'tripping' and youre lost in another world. but shrooms you invest so much love in your current world that its almost positive reinforcement to feel relaxed and in tune with spirituality that will last as long as your memory of the experience itself. youll be at the top of your game and realize that every living thing is already there to join in your celebration.
cheers.
