Is Salvia worth it?

I can pick up some 60x for $40 right now if I wanted to.
The girl at the glass shop let me sample some regular leaf and I thought it was pretty cool. I was laughing, and felt drunk for a few minutes. Then I had the most hilarious walk with some bum who kept trying to hint that he wanted money.
God, that's just what I needed too. After all that annoying shit that happened today.
So would you say it's worth it?
Do you think a hookah place would let me smoke it there? I have no friends, so I don't have a trip sitter.

Try 5x or 10x First. 60x is likely unnecessary.

I grabbed some 20x because it wasn't much more than the 10.
Now I need somewhere to try it... Hmmm..

Thats good .I think for most people more than 20x would be overkill anyway.

I've heard that the different extracts don't make a difference but I don't know how true this is.
Many think it's not worth it but I think it's pretty nice. I haven't tripped from it, but I have felt it's effects.. and it leaves me with a peaceful mind and a relaxing afterglow.
I'd say definately but it is rather expensive...
I'd like to grow my own plant sometime..

is it worth it? depends on what you're expecting. it's not fun like smoking cannabis is fun. the visuals are not like mushroom visuals. it can be very, very intense and some people can't handle it. start with small doses and work your way upwards. sooner or later you'll find you sweetspot or you'll find out that salvia is not for you.

me and my friend tryed out the 15x of salvia and he ripped a bowl with a butane lighter and he started giggleing, then he starting looking at me retarded and tryed lifting the table and getting up and sitting down and getting up he was bugging out, he tottally lost his mind. it scared me a little bit but after like a minute he came back to reality and hes was like "i donno what happened i felt like i was in a different place"
then after i smoked it because i know different people have different affects, it felt like i was being pulling or whatnot from different directions, things gave me sensations like my surrounding.. went away quick but its alright.
it was like a one time thing really, now im trying to get my hands on cubes; alot better trip than salvia

It is worth it. Smoke it in the woods or in your house you don't need a trip sitter.

Ok couple things. I would definitely try the extract the regular lead didn't really do shit for me.
Phishe I don't know who told you extracts don't make a difference but I tried some 100x extract and let me tell you there is a world of difference b/t 20x and 100x. 100x is fucking intense, you might wanna start off with something a little less like 20x or something.
I would definitely not smoke this in a hookah bar even if they let you. It can be WAY to intense to have a bunch of people around you, you don't know when your tripping balls like that. It only lasts like 20 min so even if you do freak out a little you'll be out of it before long.
I would recomend smoking out of a gravity bong so you can get the maximum amount of smoke in one breath. Last thing, make sure you're sitting down when you do it. When I smoked the 100x I immidiately dropped the bong and fell on the ground as soon I inhaled.
Enjoy

I know to sit down, but I'm still scared that my pipe will get lost somehow.
Can't smoke in the dorm, so it'll have to be in the woods. Do you at least have enough sense to shove it back in your pocket or not?

it would be pretty hard to lose your pipe. considering i don't think you'll be doing too much moving around, there can't be too many places where you could drop it.

a lot of people do move around a lot, they probably don't know what they're doing. others just sit around and barely move at all.

It sounds like you didn't even really get the full salvia experience your first time. If you do it right, you will trip complete balls for about 5-10 minutes. The laughing and drunk feeling are just threshold effects. It gets much more intense than that.

This is sort of just a random observation I realized, but I've noticed people who practice astral projection or Out of body experience seem to handle salvia much better than inexperienced people. I think this could be because of they are much more used to letting go of their physical attachment.

One thing I really feel like I need to point out, is that smoking in a hooka bar could work for some people. However, its a very disrespectful thing to do when you dont take the next person who smokes a hooka in consideration especially when using extract. I personally would feel obvious effects from the said hooka and would probably talk to upper management and tell them how fucked up it is that their hookas have salvia residue in them. I wouldnt throw a fit, but I dont plan on using psychedelics again within the next 5 years atleast. Thats why I would be somewhat upset.
The first time I tried 5x I took two hits and had massive visuals, geometries crawling all over my skin/emanating from my torso and head (no pins and needles) and one hell of an amazing experience. Then again, I had tripped around 100 times on a variety of psychedelic drugs(mostly lsd) so I know that I was more sensitive than some people, especially people who have little psychedelic experience. Some people even trip really hard off of it no matter their past psychedelic experiences. There are a few theories floating around about why some people cant feel it as easily as others. For most people a lack of psychedelic effects is likely a combination the 3 or so related theories.
The theories are easy to come up with without reading about it.
Anyways, do people like me a favor and dont smoke it out of some smoking devise used by many. -----------------------------------------------------------
My advise would be, since you have no friends, make some friends, or do the following:
Smoke a VERY small hit in a dimly lit room. Back straight, sitting "indian style". Dont get up if you get scared or simply feel stressed. Just dont get up for any reason or flail around like all those doinks you see on youtube.
This way you let the non-extract/leaf-like dose just penetrate you as you sit.
Get to know it at low doses first if you dont have a trip sitter. You are not going to cut your dick off or something if that is what you are worried about. Most of us know how to chill the hell out like adults, and thats what you need to do for about 5-20 min depending on dose.
Just start low and you will probably learn how powerful it is and how you react. Then, on high doses you will be able to assure yourself that you dont need a sitter and wont crack your head opened because you tripped over your bong, or some other uncommon bullshit.
Work your way up.
Having a sitter is just one way to do it.
You are not inherently an idiot if you work your doses up by your damn self.

I would buy it for that price. I've only done 25x and 30x but 60x would be intense. And let that chick at the shop get a hit...haha.
