So I'm trying to conveince my mom to do salvia.

She's never smoked cannabis and is around 40 years old.

How can I conveince here that these plants are good for you?


I'd like to get her to try Cactus, one day...


I really feel she is missing out...

Don't
You can't make people do what they don't want to do
You don't like her telling you not to use drugs and she must feel the same when you're telling her to use them. Stop being childish

It's not like she's stupid, she's not completely close minded...

She just needs some conveinceing...

All her info about salvia comes from the news:devilguy:

Umm I can picture you getting her to smoke some pot before Salvia thats not a nice thing to get someone to try. Salvia is not a recreational drug. Peyote would be interesting but also not much of a recreational drug. Try to get her to burn one with you, Me and my mom used to get high before she quit. Good times very good way to bond also :smile:

Cannabis is illegal.

She wouldn't go for that.

Seriously.

Stop trying to convince people to do drugs. Your trip is your trip. Their trip is their trip. Drugs are not the greatest thing in the world and not everyone should do them.

You come off as very immature in this thread.

I bet some people on here feel like I do...

Don't you want to share the experience with them, if they show interest?


She asked me about it...

But for the past 40 years she has been conditioned so heavily by society that she hasn't even smoked cannabis!

Should I not attempt to get her to re-examine her stance on plant drugs?

If your mom has never smoked cannabis, chances are she's probably never encountered an
altered state of perception, except for maybe alcohol.

So if she were to do salvia it would most likely be the scariest experience of her life. She
probably has no idea what she would be in for (if she broke through).

If salvia is something that she wants to try it should be her decision and there should be no
need for convincing.

You talk like she MUST absolutely try it. If at 40, she didn't try anything yet, there is not problem in the fact that she NEVER take anything and if you really want her to try something, start with canabis, not salvia for godsake. The chances are that it will be badly overwhelming experience for her.

You could learn how to spell "convince" for starters.

I'm bored of this.

Anyone else?

Yea it's not a good idea man, if she's never tried any psychedelic or other mind altering substance besides alcohol i don't think salvia is the place to start. Like devilmike said, shes 40 and shes made it this far just fine without any drugs like that. What makes ya think she needs it now?

If she wants to do it, then more power to her. But IMO you shouldn't try to convince her to try it. Have her smoke a doob with you if your dead set on her trying something. Get her to realize that just cus the government says you shouldn't have it doesn't mean its bad...

Actually fuck that, conveince her to smoke PCP brah she'll love it.

you could take a big fat hit, and then give her mouth to mouth, then, when she sees the err of her ways, you can correct her.

I LOL'd.

I hadn't even heard of salvia until I started smoking pot and doing shrooms.

But honestly...getting your mom to try salvia for her first drug experiences? Yikes. =/ You're gonna send her to an early grave!

If you simply MUST convince her to do something, get her to try pot. Salvia will fuck her shit up. Serially.

Maybe once she's comfortable with pot (if she ever will be), she'll be more open to salvia and also will know moreso what to expect. As opposed to "smoke this" BAM!!! Dimensional Time Shift!

Don't do it.

And why the hell are you harping on her to try drugs? Some people just don't want to and shouldn't be meant to. Don't push it...Don't treat it like something everyone should try. Because honestly, not everyone should. Not to sound like a bitch, but yea, my two cents.

So she knows you do drugs. and that you want her to try them. Can't you just leave well enough alone?

Trying to shove the idea of doing drugs down people's throats is really no better than trying to convert them to your religion because you think it's "the way." :thumbdown:

I think your heart is in the right place, but you may be looking at it wrong, and going about it wrong.

First of all, drugs aren't for everyone. That's just how it is. You may have to accept the fact that your mother could be one of those people.

Secondly, Salvia is a bit of a strange drug. The first time I smoked 5x, I was already pretty experienced, with over 10 years, and quite a number of substances and experiences under my belt. That first salvia trip scared the bejesus out of me for a minute.

Two hits and I reached the "amnesia" stage immediately. I regained consciousness about 5 minutes later, saw a giant transparent, liquid-looking swirling tube connecting my television and my head.

My immediate response was fear, and the thought that I had damaged my brain. Fortunately, my experience kicked in right away, and I was able to tell myself that it was only a drug, a new drug, and everything was fine.

If I had never taken ANY drug before... who knows how I might have handled that fear, and the thought that I had fucked myself up.

Salvia could be a little intense for a first-timer, and it's also too unpredictable, regarding dose. I gave some of the SAME stuff that I smoked to a couple friends to try, and they seemed affected, feeling "something"... got a little spacey and giggly. But nothing like I experienced.

If I were in your situation, I would really try to get into her feelings... WHY she feels the way she does about drugs. Especially drugs like marijuana. I would present her with facts, and try to open her mind, at least to the idea that pot is harmless.

That is the best place to start, and even that may not work.
