Medicinal Use of Salvia

Do or have any of you used Salvia for its anti-depressant/anti-anxiety effects? Of course a powerful trip may be anything but calming, but on low smoked doses, I feel a warm inner peace that lasts for several hours and all my concerns and worries are seen as what they are.
I'd like to use Salvia as a temporary regimen for my generalized anxiety. I would want to keep it at low doses and definitely no break-through trips (at least not yet).
I had an unnerving experience with the Lady when I took two large hits of 5X in an irritable set/setting. My friend was irritating me by telling me to smoke the rest of the bowl, but by the time I had the second hit, I wasn't quite as lucid. Then I had a short argument about the meager amount of smokable material left. After becoming thoroughly irritated with my friend (I've noticed Salvia tends to make people irritable if provoked) I started to fight the effects and I had an anxiety attack. The dissociation, lack of lucidity, and powerful physical and dream-like effects scared me a little. I had the typical bad-trip dilemma: "What if I never come down?!"
How would you suggest I go about this? I have plain leaf as well as 5X. Perhaps I could do my relaxation/meditation technique before I take one hit of plain leaf, and repeat this three times daily?
*As soon as my first flush is ready, I will also experiment with low-dose mushroom "trips."

Yes I love the after affects of Sal. D. It always tends to leave my spirits lifted after using it. Its anti-depressant/anxiety affects are amazing. Maybe someone somewhere is looking into this. So much light still needs to be shed on this wondrous plant.
-------------------- The memories that now rest in this forest Forever shadowing the sunrise of my heart Wings leave their nest at my coming Swaying away unto the cold glowing sky Dreaming away for a while My spirit sighs in peace Gazing unto the stars Please, take me there

Such sadness it is that Salvia has only been in use by the modern consumer for such a short time, and despite its potentially powerful use in medicine, it is already being scheduled. 
I'm not sure if Youtube is entirely to blame for this, but it sure contributed to it.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. A nice quid while I meditate would be great.

I think it is against the rules to disclose source information 'publicly' even if it is a legal substance.
But... Here's a riddle to the site I bought mine from. It is also organically grown by the Mazatecs themselves! Cannot get better than that.
www.jumpinggrizzyplants.com Try to figure that one he he.
