Is Salvia the Next Marijuana?

[Fryte]

I kind of want some now. Where?

I had a horrible experience with it, but the again maybe I got a shitty extract... I've done it in two times.

It gave me a pseudo-headache, hard to explain, it didn't hurt but it felt like my head was buzzing, like imagine being inside a church bell while its being banged, that buzzy vibration feeling but extremely intense. I pretty much fell to my knees and had trouble getting up, I was confused as fuck too, couldn't wait for it to end, lucky it only seems to last like 10-15 mins before you recover.

It was nothing like weed at all. I wouldn't recommend this to people who are even one bit slightly paranoid or in an uncomfortable setting. The first time I did it I was like 17 in my mom's house and I got paranoid as fuck while on it, but whats worse is at the same time your mind goes blank and totally confused so you're sitting there all fucking paranoid that your parents are going to catch you even though there's nobody home but at the same time you have no idea what the fuck is going on and the paranoid thoughts are only like "Flashes" they come and go but they make you miserable.

The second time a I did it was years later, in my own apartment, I was relaxed and didn't get paranoid, but it still sucked, I would much rather smoke weed, or my personal favorite, shrooms. Nothing beats shrooms, light doses leave you relaxed like weed, and high doses with friends are the most fun trips I've ever had.

I did this once with 4 other guys in one of their houses while his whole family was upstairs. We had bought 1g, so 0.2g each (idk anything more about the quality). Anyway it was a really different experience than I had expected. My vision was divided into alot lines, and between the lines was its own world. I was completly out of my body, didnt hear anything or saw anything, besides all these "worlds." In one world I met an animal, Im not sure if it was a duck or a raindeer, but he informed me somehow that the only way to get "back" was to not think about all these worlds. So I was going thru all these worlds trying to get "back", but I was constantly being pulled back to these other worlds. Its kinda hard to explain, but at one point I saw a person which I thought was God.

After the trip, I was told I just started laughing and lay down on the bed. Then soon I started rolling around and fell out of the bed. There I was laying still for several minutes half laughing with my eyes open. When I woke up, I was pretty much i shock.

To those who say "Salvia sucks" or "Dont try Salvia" or anything else along those lines, you are a giant collective moron. First, Salvia is NOT a "party drug" so do not treat it the same. This is something the Mazatec Shamans have used for a long time to go on their spiritual journeys. (and btw, they do not smoke it, they chew up to 80 leaves and absorb the active ingredient through their mouths) So expect the same kind of oddities to occur. If you have never taken this before, do NOT assume you can handle even 5x because it will fuck you up. This is NOT marijuana, it is nothing remotely like it so please start off with normal strength unless you have taken psychoactive substances before. Also, for beginners, make sure you are in a generally good mood, a good pleasant setting and that you HAVE SOMEONE WITH YOU. This person is there to reassure you that you are ok, to keep you from leaving the controlled room and hurting yourself and also, if you are able to speak clearly, to take notes of what you are seeing. It is best if the room is darkened with no music or tv on (people still watch Will and Grace? gag!) If no one can be arsed to do this, then you deserve whatever happens to you.

Salvia is not dangerous in and of itself. I have taken it many times in a safe setting(always with a friend present because we like to share our journeys with each other) and I have never died, or gone on to other drugs. The kid in Delaware did not commit suicide because he was taking salvia, that is our glorious media misreporting the facts again as there was no mention of salvia in his suicide note and his parents are just looking for whatever scapegoat they can find. This is found in nature, shamans have been using it for centuries with no ill effects whatsoever, it is not man-made, though the 5x and etc have been chemically concentrated and let us hope they used clean glassware for the distillation. As so far as most youtube videos, teenagers are retarded and really have no common sense but this isnt surprising is it? So please keep an open mind, take salvia safely and if you cant, FO. ^^

Instead of waiting until some new drug becomes popular, why don't lawmakers just make a blanket law that outlaws all substances that cause X effect unless medically prescribed, or is alcohol or tobacco.

Is there some reason they can't do it, which would have automatically made Salvia (or the next undiscovered wonder drug) illegal before people even knew about it?

I have never died ...

Thanks for starting my day with this gem.

They have something like that already, called the Analog Act, I forget the reason why Salvia didn't get scheduled under this.

Because it would make it illegal to have shit like morning glory and moonpods.

[Takedown3]

repeat: NO

Eh, see the act I posted above. It's illegal to try and extract the LSA out of morning glorys but its fine to grow/buy them, same deal with poppies and opium, if you get caught slicing them you are fucked hard. You can possess mushrooms that aren't dried/their spores/Dry San Pedro cactus etc.

Once you move from possession of it to trying to extract then you are in legal shit..

Wow I'm a fucking idiot, I clicked on this thinking it said saliva.

lol you're not alone

[Olo401]

Then you might as well just say fuck Salvia and smoke some DMT amirite?

Eeek.. DMT's some crazy shit man.

[Venga]

A couple of mates brought this up in our frequant drug banters and i had never heard of it before. In fairness though, they said it wasn't anything speicla, just made them laugh for 10 minutes. You could argue thats the same as weed just with fewer effects.

You have 29 posts. Good excuse.

Seriously? You're going to bring up post count? GG.

[Yuri-G]

Hmm that's fine, I'll stick with morning glories, hawaiian baby woodrose, DXM, cacti, 5-meo-DMT, etc. Plenty of legal hallucinogens out there that are a lot more fun than Salvia ever was.

Or you could just go to a hippie music festival and buy a sheet of acid.
