i was a paramedic back in the day and i got a call about a college freshman who was passed out on the snow holding a pipe filled with i dont know what. god bless him, it was a sorry sight to see. turns out it was salvia and the kid who was zonked out was actually me having an out of body experience
My boyfriend and i took salvia and he literally thought he was a multicolored piece of plastic thinking there must be more to life than being a piece of plastic.
I had 2 bad scary salvia trips and in the worst one I was a giant potato chip that was then thrown into a giant grinder and squeezed out like sausage. Other comments here describe similar feelibgs of being plastic / squeezed like play doh. I wonder why this is a common experience for humans?
My boyfriend on Salvia felt he was melting into the floor and then he saw the creation and destruction of past civilizations across the world and then he saw an old man sitting in the corner of our room and spoke with him (I couldn't make sense of it) and then he saw the whole world burn... All of this happened within 10mins...he felt like he had lived a thousand years overlooking
A peak Salvia experience is so indescribable and shocking, most folks only do it once. No one knows quite what to make of that experience, including myself.
It’s really spooky stuff. I tried just a very little hit with a friend of mine and neither of us liked that trip but he left the rest of the salvia with me and went home. I don’t know why I thought it was a good idea to see what it could really do but I smoked a couple huge tokes on it and my room became a different place I couldn’t walk in. Like a maze. None of my furniture was there anymore and I had to walk down this imaginary hall to my bed that I couldn’t see but I knew where it was supposed to be and bumped into it and laid down. My brain still worked but my eyes could not see reality anymore. I couldn’t walk because there was no floor to walk on. Reality was gone and replaced by a maze of hallways with obviously no way out so I laid there waiting for the hallucination to go away. When reality returned I took the rest of the salvia and flushed it down the toilet. Scariest trip I ever had and I’ve never tried it again.
@Deborah McCoy they will probably be delivered by a guy who says he's not a gynecologist, but he'll be happy to take a look after you take two of these lmao
reason why some countries don't make it illegal. Primarily, only if it's fun should a drug be illegal. Salvia is such an awful horrible experience for most, governments are like "Nah, leave that one (laughs maniacally)"
Shrooms take you for a ride. LSD puts you in the driver’s seat. DMT runs you over. Salvia makes you realize you've been the car this entire time. And the steering wheel. And the road. And the air for some reason.
Salvia is unlike anything on this earth. If you don't respect the plants, salvia will show you how and why you should respect them. It is out of this world.
This! People take salvia thinking that they can control it or try to. They don't understand that one of the aspects of the experience is to not try to control it... It's actually impossible. If you don't go with it, if you try to get off the roller coaster once it starts, you're disrespecting and insulting what the plant has to offer and show you. The goddess you're about to meet (regardless, once the trip starts) knows you don't want to be there, and she will make sure you get fucked sideways and the door hits your ass on the way out. It's just a law of salvia. The way that it temporarily rewires your brain, puts your mind and ego into submissive mode, and if you try to control or take charge, those wires short-circuit and you get an error message (so to speak) thus giving you the infamous bad trip. *You physically can't over power the deconstruction of your ego...With your own ego...* This is what people don't understand. The deconstruction of your ego on this plant will win. Every fucking time.
JoeSkutnik Well put!!! I always felt a distinct feeling that the experience was guided by a conscious force outside of my own. If someone was going to try salvia for the first time, I'd say, it's a dream-like trip. Prepare your mind and body to enter a dream. Don't be afraid, and by God don't try to control it. Let go of everything and just go with it. That could mean the difference between pure amazement, and sheer terror.
So true i took a huge hit of 10x and freaked the fuck out for about 5minutes, I had no control over whether or not i was going to freak out , i just freaked out anyway. Now that i know what to expect i plan on trying it again soon
I really wish the American law system were run by scientists and intellectuals instead of big children who don't know shit about the reality we live in.
+Time for Fun I agree. I'd also suggest that the reason why Salvia Divinorum hasn't been a massive priority for the DEA, is because that in addition to the very loose reasoning as to why it could be harmful, it also does not provide an opportunity to criminalise any one social, financial or ethnic demographic that a ruling class consider undesirable (crack cocaine for poorer black folk, meth for poorer white folk etc.). The primary motivation for criminalisation of certain drugs is incarceration, not eliminating physical risk, so there would be little point wasting money and resources of criminalising a drug whose primary users are not considered undesirable from a classically conservative point of view.
Many years ago I had a Salvia plant that was gifted to me by a friend. It grew well in my house next to my desk beside the window. So I had a lot of leaves to experiment with. Most of my experiences were like talking to an elderly wise woman. She pretty much told me how to guide my life, showed me my mistakes and sometimes had me time traveling. She was quite judgmental and didn’t hold back on the harsh criticism. The very first time she told me her history, of how hard life is being desperately poor with no hope of escape. She literally ‘spoke’ to me, first in an ancient language, then in song, then in broken Spanish and finally in pictures and whole telepathic concepts. There seemed to be a group or community of wise ones she was associated with. I haven’t ‘visited’ her in years because I just could not face the harshness of her judgements and how she showed me where I was being foolish or making bad choices. Once when I was having a rough time at my job she showed me how I had literally tied myself to that place with a long golden thread. To regain my peace of mind I needed to cut that golden thread. I quit that job two weeks later. Then one late autumn day I left the Salvia plant outside to sunbathe and that night we had an early frost… next day it was a black mushy mass of frost bitten leaves. Very powerful tool but one must be brave and work with it for a long time to understand it at all. Now so many young people abuse it because in our culture there are almost no wise elders to show them how to use it properly. Such a shame. It is not a party drug and should not be used for kicks… unless you want to have your ass kicked. As David Byrne said: ‘This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no fooling around!’
Oh good. You saw her too. She was critical of me too, but kind. She wanted me to be and do better. Like a grandmother that loves you but has no filter or time for concern about your feelings.
Guess what bro... the old woman was you all along, judging your life decisions and not letting yourself off the hook for your actions. I hope you don't still think the old lady was an actual being. It's clearly a manifestation of the self without ego to protect you as you critique yourself honestly. If you didn't like her critiques, it means you needed to change because you aren't happy with who you are and what you are doing.
Salvia is NOT a party drug. Take it as a party drug and you're gonna have a bad time. Take it as a spiritual experience with a clean mind. Preferably alone or with a very good trustworthy friend.
how could you even eat 4 leaves? Salvia Divinorum is the most bitter thing I have ever tasted in my life. I mean, if you didn't know about the high, why not stop after 1 awful tasting leaf? (also if you wanna feel the effects you have to chew on the leaves for about 30 mins without swallowing or make a tee)
Salvia is one crazy trip. Back when it was still legal in my state, my friends and I tried 100x. We all tripped pretty hard. I ended up hallucinating an entirely different world from the dark back yard I was in. At first I was in a sort of hellish landscape, and I was on a conveyor belt with black lines flowing through my body. I saw my friends around me as a strange group of playful demons. I faded back into reality momentarily, only to end up in a swimming pool on a sunny day. I can't remember much after that, just kind of falling through different realities like translucent layers, like pages in a book. It's unexplainable. After that, we dared to try the 140x. On that, I seriously thought I was going to disappear from existence completely. I saw myself as a singular point of red light surrounded by darkness. I kept hearing a phrase that didn't make much sense, "the ceiling and the floor are keeping you here". It was weird. Then, I swear to god, I became a kernel of corn in a field, and was harvested, boxed as Orville Redenbacher's popcorn, and shipped to a grocery store. There, sitting on the shelf in a red box, I saw through the eyes of the box itself. I saw people shopping, clear details in their faces and everything. And I was just hoping that somebody would buy me. That was pretty much the end of that trip. I don't think I could handle a salvia trip nowadays, lol
I loves me some Orville Redenbaucher on movie night. Should probably be careful next time though; I'm pretty sure I don't wanna microwave someone who's tweakin on salvia.
It's legal in the UK, or at least it was. When I tried 20x salvia it just made me feel super stoned for like 2 minutes, it was shit but my mate kept rubbing his legs on the floor saying he was pumping a windmill for the little flower people. Whatever the fuck that meant
One thing I learned about salvia is that if you want interesting hallucinations, you must have an interesting life. The first time I did salvia, I hallucinated that was at the drive thru at Jack In The Box, and I was yelling at my husband to pay the cashier. We were at home. In our living room. Not in a car, and definitely not at Jack in the Box.
Every body can have a different experience with salvia, and I am not the type to hallucinate, even with acid, mescaline, or salvia. But like someone above said, with salvia, you realize that this IS it. You're not "in" the car, you ARE the car. This is the absolute reality we have shielded ourselves from. Unfortunately, for bodies like me, it only lasts a short time, before the defense mechanisms come back on line.
I did salvia one time, and here's what I recall: I thought to myself "the taste in my mouth is so weird, it's kind of like..." and before I could complete the thought I experienced a profound sense of falling backwards and I saw myself fall backwards and dash my head against something- that something was my own front tooth! Seeing that it was my tooth in my own mouth in my own head, I also saw my own head fall backwards until it hit something, which was also in my own mouth! Again, I saw my own head fall into my own mouth and knock into a tooth, which was in my own head, over and over until the hallucination stopped. All the while I had a tragic sense of seeing my own death. When it stopped, the thought completed "tastes kind of like...I died" as I touched my tongue to my tooth, I realized that I was 'seeing' as if I was standing on my own tongue, or that I was in the perspective of a taste bud or something. I was covered in really cold sweat. Turns out I was reclining comfortably in bed and no injuries of any sort occurred, thank God. Can't believe that stuff is legal.
Yeah best piece of advice for trying salvia is start with a low dosage and be sitting down comfortably. That falling/sinking sensation is no joke, it's like having an anvil strapped to your back and being pushed off a boat in the ocean (you're not so much going down as being pulled under, imo). Turns out you can breathe in this water, but that doesn't really make the sensation any easier to acclimatize to. My first time I was standing on a 2-rung stepstool to breathe the smoke out of a tiny basement window and I definitely fell off, even though it was like 1 ft off the ground. Also, salvia TASTES TERRIBLE, so be prepared to cough up a lung. To all tryers, go boldly but safely, and best of luck!
It's legal? Great keep it legal. That's how you handle it. KEEP IT LEGAL. No underground illegal shit, plus you can sell it openly and tax it. like beer. gas. and smokes.
Jayden Jackson I made a post here some time ago about the reason for marijuana's criminalization and how it was tied to William Randolph Hearst's monopoly of the American media. The stigma has never gone away. Salvia is a new drug, that... thankfully, is scary for most people. Not scary as in cartels and organized crime scary - more like most ppl who try it once are spooked out of doing it over and over again and abusing it. I personally love it because it's like a short psychedelic reboot for my brain, and I've done it hundreds of time with no lasting effects, yet. Marijuana on the other hand has such high potential for abuse, because it's so enjoyable. Basically, the people on Capitol Hill know this and condone salvia because it is culturally insignificant and its uniqueness gives it pharmaceutical potential, whereas marijuana is seen as culturally detrimental and has contested(although expanding) medicinal exploitability.
It's legal because it's a more recent drug but it's still sold by dealers through shady shit they just do it out in the open but it's definitely gonna become illegal because the government can't control who is buying it and partly because they won't get a cut
@@jamesk1868 Me as well. My favorite is 6X. It reduces me to a simple something burstingly alive. 20 X is something else. But....salvia is something I respect greatly, and do not do often. Terror affects me like that. But there comes a time to take a religious pilgrimage to be clean and be part of living GOD. And that is infinitely greater than the terror.
@@3mountains307i really wish i had just stayed with 10x or less....i just laughed alot as if my first time smoking weed. But what i got at 80x was enough to make me say never again haha
I did salvia with my sister in Amsterdam. I saw this turning disk made of toast and felt this overwhelming connection to it. As if it was part of me or I was part of it. I did lots of psychedelics like shrooms, acid, Dmt, 2-cb, but none is comparable to the effects of salvia. Only the intensity and duration could be compared to Changa.
I really enjoyed this video, usually when im doing drug research i have to watch 30 mins of bullcrap before i find the information im looking for when you told me just about everything i needed to know right up front. Solid format, much love!

@@gpll8135 well the end of what is a not very long trip I was running around the peer shouting at my mate, dude this is awesome!! The beginning was rather terrifying. Like the trip taking over you feeling you cannot fight even for a second. It was pretty intense. I've done a lot of psychedelics so I could handle. Could be a really rough one if anyone doesn't have at least some psychedelic experiences imo.
@@jonathanjansen2476 I had my first experience with salvia last night i was really mad and scared when i got off it like an intense anger and fear i was in an abandoned trolly place inside of an old bus and let me tell you when i gott off of it i didnt know where i was i had a friend who tried it and he said he came out of the trip confused because he said he had a whole family while for me i was a book but like the book was all of time and i thought that i had just found out that everything i knew was fake and i kept trying to fight the turning pages cuz the book was ab to end and when the book finally closed i saw noting not black not white just complete nothingness and in the middle i saw something and ive been trying to figure out what it is i saw

Salvia certainly is very interesting.... I think I would like to relate some of my experiences and observations. When I was much younger, in my late 20's, I had some friends introduce me to Salvia while at a small camp-ground music festival. They were very respectful of the plant and it was taken with a sense of reverence for the spiritual aspect, or as a teacher. It wasn't pitched as a party drug, novelty, or as something to be taken lightly. So for me, as it was with my good friend LSD, a lot of my trip was centered around discovering things about how my mind worked and created my perception of reality. Salvia had some interesting things to teach there... On my first experience, the world as I saw it became like a diorama. There was the immediate foreground, the camp fire, the semicircle of people around that, then the trees, then they sky, and stars. The levels of "depth" to my visual field seemed to be layered ... like a diorama. The whole of my visual experience was also kind of like a veil or a tapestry. The stars were like pinholes of light coming through a tapestry. And and interesting thing was that all around the arc of my visual perception, while layered like a diorama, and also stretched across my perception like a tapestry or veil (it had this quasi-unreal quality), there was something going on at the corners. It seemed that at the edge of my perception, especially at the left-most end of my visual field, the "tapestry" was "flapping open" like it wasn't quite attached or anchored, and I had a profound sense that there was a world behind that tapestry and there were "entities" of unknown type that were behind it, working the "machinery" of creating my reality perception... and they had what I would describe as an elf-like sense of humor... maybe seeming to be mischievous but well intended. That was all a feeling... I didn't actually "see" any entities. Another very important impression I got from this is that people in the "diorama" were different than say the trees or rocks or sky. I had a profound sense that people were like a card-board cut-out and that behind each "person" there was an entirely different reality, and the "person" was like the intersection between realities. I took this as everyone having their own subjective reality that intersected with mine and others to create the "consensus reality". Later I became interested enough to acquire a quantity of raw leaves, and did some acetone extraction (dangerous: don't try this at home kids) to create my own concentration. So there was a short time where myself, some of my siblings, and friends experimented with this interesting plant. Here are some anecdotal observations gleaned from these experiments... Geometry becomes some thing you can sort of feel or perceive cutting through reality. For example, a round doorknob might give you the sense of the circle of the knob extending into space as a circular "cut" in reality, for lack of a better word. Or as my brother (tried to) explain it, the edges of things seemed to exist not only in 3D reality but also seemed like they were intersections with another dimension or reality behind the cracks. Very hard to articulate that. But there was definitely something to the perception of geometry and edges. Probably behind my sense of a diorama on my first experience, and the sense of a reality behind the cardboard-cutout experience of people in my visual field. Also these invisible projections of planes and stuff through space felt like they went through you as well. Gravity perception, or sense of heaviness or presence was something that others seemed to experience more than I did, in particular. So there is an effect on that perception, but I can't speak to it too much. With regard to dissociation, we all noticed that sometimes it would seem that maybe the lower half of your body was in one dimension and the upper part in another. Sort of like dissociating from part of you body experience but not all of it.. also with a strongly geometric component. Speaking of body perception, I could also say that at some points, I strongly felt like my body was maybe dried out and hollow, and I felt literally like a bag of bones more than a solid fleshy entity. I am not sure I would say these were exactly a "dissociative" experiences. But it is the best I can come up with for words to describe it. The final thing I learned from Salvia has to do with the construction of the model of reality we carry around in our heads. I really noticed this while at a friend's house one time. I realized that the model of the room I hold in my perception is just that: a model. The coffee table was the same coffee table from when I was 4yo, until I focused my attention on it. Then it became the table as it existed in the present, with its details. But the same was true of the lamp in the corner, the wall, the rug... All of these things were "held in place" in my perception of the room by stand-in objects I had experienced when I was about 4yo or so. Like the objects I encountered at that age became the models for things in my future perceptions of reality. The rug was the stand-in rug until I focused on it, then it had all the qualities of the actual rug. Same for the lamp, the walls, etc. So I became very aware of how my perception of reality was really just a model in my head that I was holding, made from primitives I experienced when very young, until I focused my perception on the actual object. Then they would flesh out with their details and not be the "stand-in" objects any longer. I found this very, very fascinating! I am reminded of this experience a bit when reading about Virtual Reality headsets and the idea of "foveated rendering". This is a trick used where the periphery of your vision is not rendered in great detail, but what you're looking at is rendered in high quality. It works by tracking your eyes so the computer knows what part of the display you're actually looking at. It saves on processing power. But my Salvia experience was much more about the construction of the model of reality in my head than it was about the macula or fovea (center of your vision, region of your retina). I have not done Salvia since those days when it was new, interesting, and my milieu and I were experimenting with it. Just sort of fell away from it. But I do strongly believe it is a "teacher" of sorts, and deserves to be researched. The older I get, the less inclined I am to use psychedelics. Not that I don't like or definitely appreciate them for what they have done for me. But these days I see them as powerful spiritual, metaphysical, or psychological tools and approach them with great respect for their powerful medicine. So I don't tend to take them lightly, or frequently. But they have been an important part of my personal development that I am eternally grateful for having experienced. I am excited, if not elated, that there is now so much research again into the uses of psilocybin in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and especially for those coping with end-of-life like late stage cancer patients and others who need to learn how to face those very very hard realities. I look forward to a greater understanding, both pharmacological and psychological, of these substances. Especially psilocybin and LSD, but also MDMA. Salvia may not have as obvious a psychological benefit as these others can have. But it certainly deserves more study, both in and out of pharmacology. Psychedelics are powerful, powerful tools and while they can be loads of fun in the right set and setting, they are not to be taken lightly. And there seems to be truth to the fact that if you're already predisposed to a condition such as schizoaffecive or other similar disorders, they might bring that out to the fore. So be aware, be respectful, be responsible. They might seem at first like toys. But they are also very, very powerful 'allies' and teachers. Very strong medicine. And if you're unprepared, they can take you on a ride from the heights of heaven to the depths of hell and back. But "good" or "bad" trip, there is usually something profound to be learned if you have the eyes to see, the ears to hear, as it were.
Wow you really had a good explanation on the "model of reality" thing. I've noticed that and haven't been able to put it into words, but that's exactly correct. I've had a different type of experience though. It actually did the opposite, or maybe we're just describing it differently. My self-constructed version of reality actually barged into how I normally see things. Like I was in a circle with my friends and I could still see everything, but there was also a distinct layer of my mental model of reality that was a vast dioramic backdrop of towering buildings circling us. The deepest I got that time was that I slowly melted into one of the windows or something and my mental model almost covered up reality, becoming way way more detailed. After that it faded pretty fast. But it was similarly a sort of diorama until the point where I meshed with it all.
Once while taking it in my friend's car, i literally thought i was in a car chasing scene and a whole orchestra playing in my ears, not to mention i literally felt like we were going 200 kmh, while in reality we were parked on the side of the road 😂😂😂
I grew Salvia a few times, it's a moderately pretty plant - a few of the more distressed seedlings grew into a spiral pattern. It was quite cool and I feel appropriate considering the psychedelic properties. Wish I had kept pics
@@nolanmaxwell3167 you gotta look for 'salvia divinorum', if it doesn't say salvia divinorum then it isn't. If it's legal where you live then there's probably a couple online headshops in your country selling cuttings, generally speaking it can't be grown from seed and all salvia divinorum seeds for sale online are scams.
I spent some time with it and still interact with it occasionally. When friends and i were young teens we spent a good couple years researching various psychedelicsn before we ever tried them. I've always taken them with specific purposes, in safe environment, babysitter, and mental and physical prep before driving in . I reckon 95% of people experimenting with these kinds of chemicals don't approach it that way at all and suffer for it. Managing all of those specific things is so very important when using salvia. It's important to acquire from One source at one strength for consistency using a digital scale to weigh doses. It's always better to have an experience that leaves you a little wanting than too much which can be incredibly hard to cope with. Take notes and make adjustments gradually. Salvia definitely isn't s a recreational drug. That needs to be stressed. I'm not going to go in to the details of the factors that should be present for a productive experience. All the details are easy to find in literature out there.if you approach it appropriately it's can be.., beyond anything that you can imagine. I've never had two experiences that were the same. There's certain elements that kind of consistent for me. But the trips go beyond. The visions the environments the beings that one can experience is baffling to me still. If it's purely a product of my own mind affected and stimulated by the particular chemical I have no idea how in the world I could generate the kind of spaces that I've experienced. It's so hard to not believe that you go to dimensional spaces that really exist. It's so fascinating but it can be intensely terrifying too I don't recommend it to anyone but... Just be careful and don't hurt yourself.
One thing I don't see anyone mentioning is the "side-effects" if you will. I did it once about 15 years ago with a friend, the high/trip was pretty cool, felt like my bedroom was a one room house in the forest from the Blair Witch Project but what I remember strongly is the increased salivation, cold sweat/clammy feeling, feeling physically uncomfortable (and unable to get comfortable) and not being able to go to sleep later. It's kinda nice if you sprinkle a little bit in your weed, certainly alleviates the cotton-mouth, this is what I did with the rest of the stuff I had because I didn't want to do it (pure) again. My brother tried it the next day and and ended up lying on his bed with his feet on the wall because he thought he was in a kindergarten and gravity had shifted so he was trying to walk up the wall. He also thought my name was Jonathan.
Your brother: ever since the time my brother Johnathan did salvia and thought he was standing up and that I was lying downn and trying to walk up the wall, he seems to have forgotten his name and tells people to call him Mr. In Vacuo. Stuffs intense, man...
Well, all I got as side-effects was feeling very hot, and having dreams with very vivid colors the nights after. I think what's more important is that no one talks about the unique propriety of the plant (I searched but apparently no other hallucinogenic plant has this), the inverted tolerance. The more you take salvia, the more effects you get. The tolerance goes down to normal in about a week. Another thing, people mostly take extracts, wich are surely why the plant is described as very powerful. Of course when someone takes 30 times a normal dose, specially for the first time trying it. Nobody would do that for any drug, but apparently everyone does with salvia.
@@AGKyran That's really interesting, I'd never heard of the inverted tolerance. With the doses, are you sure that the "times" means times the normal dose? The store where we bought it from had 5 or 10x as the lowest and we bought the next one up, 10 or 15x which the guy recommended for first timers. Also I think we all got the same side-effects (but as I say it was 15 years ago so forgive me for being a tad hazy on the details...).
@@InVacuo It's not exactly the normal dose, it depends of how you take it. A 10x extract simply means that you take 10 grams of dried leaves and you concentrate it with chemical products, so you end with 1 gram. If you want to go simply you'll make a cigarette and add salvia. With a bong or a pipe you'll basically add around one gram, it's not very accurate though. Otherwise you can make a tea and then of course you'll add much more. On Erowid (wich is a very sure site about this), they say a strong dosage for dried leaves is 0,75g. So I was even underestimating it apparently. I thought one gram was a pretty light experience to start with. Of course it's relative. Some people have a higher tolerance, some a lower. I think it's logical the person in the store recommanded a higher dose. Most people tend to prefer to start with a higher dose, as for a good number of people otherwise they won't feel a thing. It oddly works like when people smoke weed for their first time and don't feel anything. I don't know the science behind it but it's like there's a time for the brain receptors to wake up. Don't worry about the hazy memory, I'm far from being the best on this too. Anyway you seem to have you and your friend had a strong experience. Personally I always took dried leaves (I took some 40x once and it did nothing), and I got used to smoke a salvia cigarette before sleeping. But the first real effect I had was with a pipe. It also need a lighter that can burn it with a hot temperate. Salvia is very specific xD My best experience stays when I smoked it in front of my computer and suddenly my right eye was seeing a jungle instead. I heard a woman laughing. It was somehow funny. I think I should try it again. A bag of dried leaves it cheap as hell and can last soooo long.
@@EverywhereDrums I never experienced time dilation with salvia. I have in martial arts, one episode that was less than a hundredth to a thousandth of a second, but seemed to last for minutes. All I experienced with salvia was pure unadulterated terror, and then pure GOD. No hallucinations, but I suspect, after 72 years on the planet, I actually am different than most people, and don't hallucinate.. I have never hallucinated, not even on 12.5 grams of LSD/125 100 mic tabs.
Loved Salvia, the great thing about it is that it's short (also legal). Having tried other hallucinogenics, and lived a few bad trips, knowing that the effects only last a few minutes is a relief.
I've tripped on Salvia on 2 occasions....but mostly i do microdose on mushrooms and i can say it has improved my daily attitude, I;m more focused and less feeling less trauma..
Shrooms take you for a ride. LSD puts you in the driver’s seat. DMT runs you over. Salvia makes you realize you've been the car this entire time. And the steering wheel. And the road. And the air for some reason. copied..
This is the best way I can describe what happened to me. I was in a giant pink weather balloon hurling myself over massive half pipes trying to get to 2 Wizard of Oz floating heads. When I came to my friends were laughing at me as I had stumbled over the couch and belly crawled across the room. Another person said they were standing on the edge of an eyelash that was blinking.
Heard about the addition to the controlled substance list when I was transitioning out of the military in '04/'05 and it made my to do list. Tried it and OMFG. Not a horrible experience, but yeah it hit fast. I was stuck for a few minutes and tripped where I stood. Def out of body and short lived but I was satisfied and haven't felt that urge to go back.
I unraveled like an accordion and became everything. It's hard to explain what I saw. Try to imagine a direction that isn't left, right, up, or down, and that's where I went. It felt like a festival, too. I really enjoyed myself, and I felt so safe and secure in this strange reality. It was like my own little safe space between space. I felt so carefree like I was a kid again, before everything. I'm really grateful for this experience 💚
I know exactly the direction you are talking about. It's my favourite place to be. Almost inside out and outside in at the same time,, a little skip to the left so to speak.
@@jamesconroy7030 or be careful with that "only" word and interdimensional spatial potentials. I don't think that our brains are capable of comprehending, truly, something on that level of playing field. But, for what is the snails capacity to understand the universe, may not be the limit for what the universe is capable of being.
Somehow it always reminds me of a carnival. Just in general. The taste of the smoke tastes like specifically carnival balloons and clowns, and those red and white striped tents. Idk how it's so specific and it's not like I see it or taste it. It just feels like it somehow
About a decade ago Salvia was popular in the oil fields of North Dakota along with many other substances we won't talk about here. I experimented with it a couple of times. Definitely a wild trip and over almost as quick as it starts.
I had a Salvia experience when I was 19 that absolutely humbled me. I had never done psychedelics before and had no idea what I was in for. Just thought it was about funky colours and whatnot. What I ended up getting was an experience that felt like a lifetime, where my atheism got torn to absolute shreds. Entities mocked and chastised me for my arrogance and wouldn't relent until I humbled myself, sincerely apologised and earnestly asked them to teach me more. Once I did that, they took me in and raised me as one of their own. I learned and grew, going on to make my own entity family before becoming aware of a tether to my psychical body which had previously been stretched so thin it was impercievable. The tether was undulating, shortening and thickening with each undulation until I found myself back in my body, with my friend asking me how it was. My response was "I need... To not talk... For a while..." and I remained completely speechless for about an hour afterward, apart from asking if we could go smoke a joint. I can never appropriately convey the experience or how real it was. Theists never, ever seemed insane to me ever again. I miss my Salvia entity brethren, but haven't smoked it since. For the longest time, I was terrified that it's a crazy making drug. I have taken mushrooms since, and they have given me the tools to assimilate what I learned on Salvia in a way that is compatible with consensus reality and everyday waking consciousness. Psychedelics are utterly fantastic, but they are not toys, and shouldn't be thought of as "drugs" in the same vain as coke, meth, heroin etc. They must be respected. They are not addictive. They are not *just* "hallucinogens." Not everyone can handle them, so I wouldn't recommend them for everyone, but I would absolutely recommend them to the majority of folks who are curious, provided they do at least enough homework to amount to a GED/British A level ahead of time, including philosophy, and get their set and setting right. If you can't handle things like self confrontation, learning who you really are, facing deep fears you didn't even know you had, discovering that reality and conscious experience is so much larger and spectacular than the physical that it makes the physical seem almost not real, or even just simply having no idea what's actually real and what's an illusion anymore, then yeah, write people like me off as crazy and go live your life trip-free. It's all good. If you think you can handle these things, then hey, come join the astral party in the super-dimensional realm of what the f**k! 😂
I recommend you hit up this legit plug they're very reliable ship to any location they've got Adderall shrooms ketamine dmt,lsd,spores,microdose and other psychedelic stuffs
The thing about psychedelics is, it seems profound and enlightening at the time, but any kind of knowledge or growth obtained from it is fleeting and illusory. If it really was something that can enlighten the masses and promote world peace and empathic kindness, then we would already be living in a better world since the 60s. Clearly the peace and love hippies of the Age Of Aquarius turned into the Karens of the age of the boomers, so anything they learned from the mystical experiences of LSD was temporary and easily forgotten.
I've taken salvia and had shrooms. salvia a few times, and completely laughed my a** off, which my sides hurt for days lol. Shrooms only once and I experience what I was hoping for. Now that's not saying it doesn't cause I have friends that say they've had amazing experiences on shrooms.
Salvia is a fascinating thing, the best description I can give without influencing another’s trip would be pointing out that it’s exactly what happens to cats on catnip, and feels like DMT’s open-carry cousin. A beautifully profound source of delirious insights, and definitely worth trying if you like that sort of forte.
@Assembled Existence someone on Reddit with more in-depth knowledge than me said this, before I misinterpreted it through lazy inattentive reading and made false comparisons: The plant that is probably closest to Salvia divinorum is probably the genus Nepeta, aka Catnips. And the chemicals in it are structurally and pharmacologically close to Salvinorins. Actually, most, if not all, plants in the mint family have chemicals that, like Salvinorin, are agonistic at the Kappa opiate receptor. (KOR, and by chance, our Nepeta leaves look like little hearts... :) ). This includes menthol, as found in chewing gums. It is just that in most of them, it is too weak to notice. But in catnips, the main pharmacologically active components, the Nepetalactones, are strong enough to show clinically active effects. Both Salvinorins and Nepetalactones have a characteristic lactone group (the ring structure with an oxygen atom in the ring, as well as double bonded to an adjacent carbon atom), it is just the Salvinorin molecule is more complex. Now, as far as the effects---well, obviously, they are not the same. But many different plants in the mint family, including catnip and lemon balm (Melissa spp) have been used in many different cultures for centuries for anxiety-relieving and sedative effects. Catnip, in my experience, is pretty strong, but it is not exactly "psychedelic"---at least not while we are awake. Effects are usually sedation and relaxation. If taken before sleep, it will usually lead to vivid dreams, some of which might be frightening, and involve contact with "entities", but which are mostly peaceful. It also depends what concentration it is taken in. Tisanes made from leaves and flowers are good, but extract is much stronger. Since my experience with Salvia is limited, I can't really say much about it, but I feel that it is somewhat comparable, especially that, if taken regularly for a few days, everything takes on a slight "otherworldly" feeling. As could be expected, it is somewhat hard to describe the feeling.
Mm, Salvia. Not a 'fun drug' but definitely something that will teach you about yourself. Particularly just how strange the brain and the conscious states it produces can be.
***** I briefly learned to communicate with a purple light coming from behind me, but immediately forgot what we said to each other when I turned around.
ThePhatWabbit Well I suppose it depends on what your idea of 'fun' is, really, but what I meant was that it isn't something that should be taken lightly.
Darkness Surrounded my eyes pitch black I was a teardrop as I fell rippling the body of water Beneath me When I came back everyone in the room was Stuck ...I pushed off these people as my face and Body stretched and morphed back to this human Shape. Fucking craziest /scariest/ strangest Experience I have ever felt
I've done salvia a couple times. First time I was incapacitated and all the objects in my room were speaking in a british accent. Second time felt like I was being folded into a continuum of all humans, connected via our lineages, hard to explain but very intense. Needless to say your experience can vary.
There are books about salvia - in one (sorry don't have title handy) a fellow visits a shaman and does a "traditional" salvia trip: chewing large quantity of fresh leaves for a long period, resulting in a lengthy, more mild trip, where the two engage in conversation with a "plant goddess." As I understood it, you're meant to inquire of the goddess regarding any ailments you have and she tells you the remedy needed.
Basically salvia feels like you get tossed from a 3D dimension into a 2D dimension and you feel your brain trying to process the new reality. It becomes the new reality in which you have knowledge that you are alternating from this reality to the next and so on into infinity. The "bad" trips are basically when you get stuck in the salvia loop and you resist it. Resisting the salvia loop will cause panic and trigger a type of fight or flight response that makes the user flail or try to jump out of windows.
I wonder abut the 2D thing. That is an interesting point. I wonder if it is more a regression into a lesser energetic state rather than a progression into a higher one. It is profound in that you stop being a human, but possibly it is a step right back rather than a leap forward. It made me realise everything exists as energy and it is possible to be something that is nothing tangible, what we think of as only a concept. The joint consciousness of an ant colony, the ground with Antelope running over, or the sound a cow makes. Everyone should do it once. Properly, in a silent completely dark safe environment. Don't try to move, just let it happen. It won't hurt you, it will blow your brain up in a good way. :)
Yes exactly, the 2D experience is very common and I have always found this interesting. It's peculiar that people essentially experience the same trip. I also had a overwhelming feeling of remembering "this is how it really is". As if this 2D reality is where I was from originally and now I was back. Pretty scary stuff.
I’ve done Salvia a handful of times and it’s a very unique trip every time. First was out of a four foot bong and a mechanical claw picked me up by the head 3 inches off the ground and made me go up and down the hallways of my house with my feet kicking away. It flipped gravity on me one time where what we consider vertical turned horizontal, falling across the floor. Strangest one was I became a day on a typical paper calendar and spent most of the time trying to figure out if I was Tuesday or Thursday🤔
Wow, that is weird. I saw judges sitting on blocks of dimensions that folded over and slammed down, all while hearing 'a week last wednesday' or something similar, in an electronic voice, like something off an Underworld album. I seemed to build up a tolerance very quickly. That is the only reason I haven't taken it since.
@@DreadPitt that was amazing. I was standing up on the stoop and this person ask to take a note… Sharpies started to shoot out of my nonexistent shirt pocket as a 2-D level of temporal regulation. I’m pretty sure I’m Tuesday.
Took salvia with a group of my buddies when I was a teen. I just remember having perma-grin for about 5 minutes and things looking “different” hard to describe. My buddies reaction was the best he started laughing uncontrollably for about 5 minutes or so then abruptly stopped looks straight at us and said ah f@&k not you guys again. 😂
I had a "friend" quite aggressively insist i try some extremely potent extract on a bong rip that was quite large and they didn't warn me. It was the most intense but short trip of my life, this stuff is from other dimensions or something, it cannot even be explained.
I immediately proceeded to call my friend and tell him "you gotta try this stuff" granted I explained my situation and he didn't believe me so I told him to repeat 2 gravity blasts back to back like I had foolishly done.. At least Peter Griffin didn't come for him lol
Josh Bodhi'Sattva agree. Never had the chance to do DMT. Never even seen any. Done lsd over 300 times easy. X done probaly 70 or 80 times shrooms a dozen times or so and mescaline once. Salvia ONCE. If you get the more potent like 20x or 50x one hit was all it took. It literally did feel like a eternity. Every time I made a move it just felt like the same thing was happening over and over forever. When I finally came out of the real intense part and was able to function again my friend told me it was probabaly around 1 minute. I said fuck that and never touched it or had a desire to touch it again. The only drug I ever did that actually scared me. But I was young then and more carefree , been drug free now for years.
My only experience with salvia was pure horror. I saw trees "bleed," my girlfriends' eyes "bleed," and the clouds in the sky had giant, thick chalky black outlines. As far as I remember, I felt like I was sinking into the ground. I'm pretty sure it was only 5x or 10x, but I still tripped pretty hard. It was definitely horrifying, but I've heard a lot of people have had great times on it.
I found it kinda scary. My friend that had it he had a couple of his coworkers try it. They were roofers after one of them took a hit he tried to go back to work and he shot himself in the hand with a nail gun and all he could do was just stand there and stare at his hand. Mr friend said when he tried it he wandered out to the edge of the fence at his coworkers house and when he came down he thought oh crap his wife was gonna be pissed because he thought so much time had passed when in reality it was only like 5 minutes. But yeah for me and everyone I personally know of that have tried it. Pretty horrifying for us and the majority except for maybe one want nothing to do with it ever again.
Another thing, I remember laying down, I kept my feet in one position for about a minute, I then moved my feet to the side. I could still feel the previous position of my feet, aswell as where my feet currently are at the same time. Then the feeling of my old feet started to slowly disappear.
Rick LeRoy I know exactly that you mean, I did it laying down on my couch, and there is still a lot I can't describe in words/remember. But I remember trying to get up and I felt as I was still laying down as I was standing but at the same time I think I was feeling every position I was in to get to my standing position
This plant is no joke. When it first became popular in head shops, I tried a 25x concentrated dried leaf product. I packed a typical size bowl, hit it once, and then pulled out a marb menthol. Before I lit it, I totally dissociated. I believed I was a tube made of light spinning in space. Wondering if "I'd ever become a person again" (literal thought), I started to come out of it. I had put on a Ravi Shankar CD, so sitar music got mixed in to the trip. I then though I had sunk into and became part of the blankets. I figured maybe my wife (ex now) might not see how totally F#@%ed up I was! I came out of it in maybe 5-10 minutes, but it was BY FAR the most intense type of trip I have EVER had, which includes all of the usual suspects, along with real absinthe (I should have said traditional/madeand a couple others. I never used it again, and I strongly advise not taking it, but if you do HAVE A SOBER PERSON watch out for you while tripping. EDIT: It seems likely that my experience with Absinthe was due to the placebo effect and/or poorly made alcohol with too much methanol in it. I will stand by my description of that evening, but numerous responders who seem well informed about Absinthe or annisette liquors generally have let me know it is not supposed to do anything strange to a person. I also looked up thujone, one chemical in Absinthe believed to be hallucinogenic and while it is considered poisonous/toxic (which it is if enough is ingested) it is not noticeably psychoactive at any dose.
@@ededdandeddytv5164 It's hard to put into words, it felt like I could only think in words for a minute, not images/sensations/etc. I could talk to myself, but that was all I was saying internally. It was soooooo weird.
Well Absinth is just rich in ethanol. If you would ingest the amount of thujone to have "psychedelic" effects you would be in the hospital later on because it's much more hepatotoxic than ethanol and gives you convulsions, delusions and vertigo. In the US the max allowed concentration of Thujon is 10 mg/l. This isn't enough by far for any effects, its the ethanol.
I dont remember the strength, I had 15x or 25x dried leaf. Same as you packed a bowl and smoked it, then I get the feeling of falling backwards into the couch very fast, right arm tingling kinda feeling like a pulling sensation and the walls had turned into conveyors with people on them and was feeling like I was been pulled in. Such a weird experience, definitely something to try but only once.
@@Meo-cw8lu It could have been a placebo effect thing, I had it in Bulgaria and was told it was traditional absinthe and would be a different experience, so I may have focused on differences and attributed them to the bottle. I experienced a weird blurring of bright lights and they had intense color halos of pinks to greens, and took it at face value. I suppose it could have had a touch more methanol than commercial alcohols do, that would certainly cause altered vision. Also not an experience I was keen to repeat. Your comment got cut off. No it wasn't in the US, I was living in Austria and visiting a friend's hometown in Bulgaria.
It's just that you lose any sense of time. Everything lasts for ever but at the time takes no time. You sober up as quick as it comes on, you'll probably wake up thinking wtf was that
I've done both, salvia in very high doses, but dmt only the once so probably not the best person to talk about this, but some of my salvia trips while smoking weed felt just as intense as my dmt trip, it was with 80x extract an even when I was back in the room, I was tripping balls, as I raised my head off the kitchen table I held my arm in front of my face, everything below was animated, everything above was real, as I moved my arm it followed so to speak, this was probs only 10 to 15 seconds, but felt super slow motion. Weird as hell sometimes but always leaves you so curious and fully functional within the hour of doing it.
@@TheLouissuper I think the issue is salvia can rewrite your life, but only for ten mins. Dmt does that same give or take, person depdent, how much weed you've smoked ect, bug is normally closer to the half hour hour of tripping balls, in my experience anyway.
Salvia changed my life. For better or for worse. Had an ego death / scariest / craziest experience of my life. Made me fully understand what I was soon to find out a philosophy called “solipsism”
Weed became illegal long ago and was viewed as a drug that makes you go insane, it's going to be difficult to re-legalize it because a lot of people still view it as the bad drug it was viewed as a long time ago
First time I ever did it I was sitting on bleachers at dark park with my bestfriends. Took a bong rip and immediately started to like see myself from a 3rd perspective and started crying and while crying telling my friends I could see the future and we’re gonna have beautiful lives. I was just over taken by emotion and a vision of the future. Salvia is a crazy plant, I love it and respect it very much.
It feels like a life time on the otherside. The first thing that happened to me was it felt like my mouth opened 360° then I kinda fused to my couch, which spiraled through space and timealong a rainbow bridge, things around me were like a tool music video. The giant face made out of everything noticed me and in a stern but reassuring tone told me that I shouldn't have seen this, that I wasn't supposed to be here yet. Then all the rest of its eyes looked at the central one which pulled me through it. For a brief moment I knew everything all the secrets of the universe, but the human mind cannot process that much info and it quickly fades, my consciousness was pushed through a thin fluid membrane and back into my corporeal vessel, which was covered in cold sweat and tasted like mothballs. Salvia is one hell of a teacher. And should not be abused, it is to be respected, especially for those with a weak mind.
I miss Salvia SO MUCH! Like an ex girlfriend, seriously. I can't do it anymore for reasons, but it was like being in heaven. Most people seem to hate it though, they say it's like being in hell. It has a weird reverse tolerance so the more you do the less you need the next time. If you do enough just smelling it can set you off into another dimension. If you do it a lot you start to get really weird, but it will blow your mind wide open.
my "friend" once gave a a bong of salvia with weed on top so i didnt see the salvia. it resulted in myself floating about my house and looking down on everyone in the room. i honestly thought i'd died and was floating to heaven. i've never been so scared in my life
Thank you so much for this video! I've seen a lot of videos of tweaked people, but not a lot of education on the topic. This was beautifully concise too.
It turned my living room into the price is right set with blinking clear/colored lights moving in a single direction on floor. The floors were all like a treadmill with three sets of arrows on the ground like a video game to tell me what way to go..Very very intense even for an experienced drug user…
Cyrus Hale Not at all. Catnip doesn't make your cat think its not a cat. Also catnip also works on humans, so technically, catnip is catnip for humans lol
Proves that we dont read full words ever. In fact cambridge found out that is the 1st and last letters are ok the inner letter canbe mixed up and we would still understand. We never actuallu look at the text los
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here....I still say the Best are mushrooms
came home crying on balcony, listening to good good father by Chris tomlin, and gratitude by brandon lake, wailing my soul out, because I want to be closer to jesus and I don't know how to be, and because I miss and long for Bryan from the very core of my being
Wow, being that it acts on the opiate receptors that makes the experience a friend of mine had make a lot of sense. Basically, my friends and I had gotten a hold of salvia several years ago and we all had pretty intense trips, but when one of our older (over 40yr) friends tried it, a friend who had severe problems with opiate addiction- that friend had the most intense trip we had seen, in comparison to our own and even those we had seen online. Given that opiate addiction often works through increasing the amount of opiate receptors in the brain, our opiate-addicted friend would presumably have a significantly greater amount of opiate receptors than the rest of us (who did not have any exposure to opiates). If salvia acts on the opiate receptors, then it would make sense that having more opiate receptors would cause a more intense trip, as seen in our friend. This is just one person, but it could be grounds for further investigation to find if opiate use is associated with more intense salvia trips. A potential confound, however, would be that this friend also suffers from schizophrenia; which may also influence the nature of the experience. The the question is: does opiate addiction increase the potency of salvia by proxy of having more opiate receptors to be acted on by the active compounds in salvia that act on these opiate receptors? PS In good news, that friend no longer uses opiates after having been through several recovery programs. I don't think salvia had much to do with this friend kicking the addiction, but I just figured I'd share the fact that this person is off opiates currently and has been for some time.
@@KillerSwyne1 Worse weed? Well first of all cannabis isn't bad, it never killed anyone, you can't overdose on it. Kratom is a whole different species, acts on a whole different part of the brain. Weed effects the cannabinoid receptors. Kratom effects the opiate receptors. Kratom is not weed, weed is not kratom. Just like how carrots are not apples (carrot is a root based starch carbohydrate, while the apple is a fruit based sugar carbohydrate). In fact, you don't even smoke kratom - its consumed as a tea. What does it do though? That's a good question. Small doses are like coffee. Larger doses are like pain pills. Very large doses are much like being violently sick from alcohol (dizziness, nausea, and loss of motor function). You can't die from Kratom alone (overdose) on standard doses; but people have died from combining Kratom with large doses of other opiates, because opiates can shut down the heart/lungs at the right dose, and since Kratom is an opiate, it has the ability to potentiate other opiates (i.e. make them stronger) and that can push large doses into lethal doses. Kratom by itself is regarded as safe though- maybe not as safe as weed. So... No its not a "worse weed" at all, it is its own thing. As for what it does; it relieves pain and it is effective at stopping withdrawal symptoms associated with opiates. So if a heroin addict is dope-sick from not having access to heroin (or other opiates) then Kratom can help ease their suffering as a legal herbal alternative. With that said, I personally would not recommend people that do not have some kind of opiate addiction to try Kratom. It ought to be regarded as a medicine to help with dope sickness from opiates and ought not be recommended to sober people nor mere stoners due to the fact that it is somewhat addictive in and of itself and has a pattern of withdrawal associated with it (month of depression) although Kratom withdrawals are far less severe than the withdrawals of other opiates.
I can't see anybody abusing salvia more than once. Salvia is the momentary ticket to the terror and majesty of GOD. BTW, this was "one" of the most intense experiences you've had. What was more intense?
My only experience with Salvia was when I was about 19, with my older brother supervising. It started with a slow pulse, as though I was feeling and seeing a sound wave hitting me. As the pulse enveloped me my vision went dark, and I began to pass upward through a mosaic, almost like a stained glass ceiling. I started to get a glimpse of what was through this ceiling; it was dark but I could make out three large shadowy figures positioned around a large table (the surface of which was this ceiling I was passing through). I heard one of them say; "what's he doing here, he's not supposed to be here", and I got a sense that the figures were panicked and looking over their shoulder for someone (their superior). I looked down at the table and it was light up with countless points of light and a grid, each one appeared to have a value assigned (a string of numbers), like some kind of map of the universe. I felt myself being pushed back down as I came to. I could feel myself smiling and heard myself apoligising for smiling too much, but my bother told me I wasn't even smiling. All this only lasted a few minutes and I felt perfectly normal after only a couple more minutes.
This has more than freaked me out. Around 5yrs ago i had total ego loss from some x80 salvia. My experience was extremely similar but what are the odds of meeting a couple alien type beings saying “what’s he doing here, he’s not supposed to be here”
Look into Dr. Michael Heiser’s work on the divine counsel, very fascinating rabbit hole. Thanks for sharing your trip, I’ve never tried salvia yet I’m thinking about trying it by holding it in my mouth, the documentary with Hamilton Morris he took salvia that way and it sounded like an amazing experience and he was guided by a medicine woman
I saw beings. Human? On one trip they were sitting in a circle and I was looking down and in on them, and they all looked up at me with faces of disapproval and I knew they were not happy I was there. At that point I got up and ran to get away and as I was moving through the house there was another one to my right standing there looking me with the same disapproving look. Then it all faded away and I was on the back porch with a massive feeling of dread and disappointment.
I experienced an entire life as myself but in vastly different circumstances, many friends and family both in my “real” life and the life I lived apparently only within my mind but nobody from my current existence was in this other life I lived. I had an Asian wife and a few very capable and talented kids and I had a career as an engineer which is a complete departure from every occupation I’ve ever actually had in this world. Obviously there was so much more I’d have to explain to give the most accurate description of this event , what I’ll say is that it was such a profound experience that even a few years later I still have times when it’s on my mind and I try to understand what it all means if it actually means anything at all. I definitely wasn’t prepared for what transpired, while I don’t regret it by any means I think if I could go back in time to this night I’d probably suppress my curiosity with salvia and abstain from giving it a try.
Salvia has many other uses. For instance, its tea help regulate sweat and it’s recommended to improve digestion. I even saw that it can be planted as a natural way to reduce the presence of ants in the garden.
I've had this many times in my life but the worst experience I ever had was taking a giant bong rip then realizing it wasn't just weed.... I exhaled and coughed a couple times and looked at my friend and he just said "bye" and I was gone for about 10 minutes then I got up and wasn't too happy about it but I was still laughing my ass off because apparently as I faded out of existence I said "O no, here we go again" then just dropped to the floor. 😂
Think you ment to say that you realized it wasn't just weed. I have never given anyone anything with telling them. I grew up in Humboldt county California and so weed everything else under the sun is available and as a young person that's all we had to do was party. My word of advice for anyone with salvia is to do it through a pipe the first time and always have a sober person. I watched a friend fall down and cut him ass cheek open on his now broken $400 bong... He had to have stitches and never wanted to do it again. I have done my share and sitting on the floor with a pipe in a comfortable place with people you trust is an absolute must. My first experience was bad, through a bong and I was afraid of it for a few years after that. But tried it with a pipe years later. Sitting on the ground in the forest, it was an eye open and helped me spiritually. If you respect it as a medicine and not a drug, it can definitely teach you.
@@h.a.3156 - the first time I got real dabs from the MMJ market I did the "kill your friend" w/ dabs thing but I did it to myself by accident.... I still smoke it but just not alone, I usually sprinkle a little on a bowl because it's hard to take little dabs and the carts were way too expensive. I figured I'll just buy the G of dabs and take small dabs but it wasn't working so I said fk it and took a bigger one.... Turns out I wasn't heating it evenly, I was just heating the bottom of the banger, and when I was taking a 3rd hit it melted the stuff on the walls of the banger and it all went up in one hit and I almost passed the fk out. 😂😂
@@sierrafosnaugh1136 - Yeah I was obviously high when I wrote it because I just re-read it and realized my mistake, I couldn't spend that much on a bong because my luck sucks and I'd probably break it the first time I used it.... You're lucky to be in California because it's almost impossible to get anything in PA and if you do, you have to be scared about Fentanyl. People are putting it in literally everything from delta-8 carts to delta-8 bud and they try to pass it off as real weed, and I've even heard about people actually sprinkling it on weed and not telling people, so I stopped buying off the street a few years back and I got my MMJ card and now I can't find mushrooms.... That's the one thing I feel like I really need in my life right now, especially a shroom chocolate bar because I know it would be portioned properly. 😁
As someone who likes a psychedelic trip and use them for meditation, therapy, and of course fun but not as often. I've tried Salvia a few times when I was younger. Those where not the best trips. My experience was not like others. I was frozen solid not able to move and when coming out of the trip. I felt like I was traveling through different dimensions and every time I entered a new dimension. I was smashing through a wall like the Kool-Aid Man. I've tried Salvia multiple times and every time the same trip and feeling of not being able to move and the traveling through dimensions has always happened. Other people that I was with who tried Salvia had great and fun trips. Some of those people thought they were a cat and acted like a cat during there trip.

I’ve done salvia twice - first time I was stuck inside a glowing orange tube of either chicken wire or fishing net, and the tube had its own gravity that made me turn round in circles. Second time, the world became a funfair that was built inside a carpet shop. I got trapped inside a rolled up bunch of carpet that was rolling down a hill and made me spin round in circles. Powerfully dissociative and highly psychoactive/visual. Weird but fun.
Salvia is a trip. I haven't tried it again since college, but one my vision seemed to turned into a bunch of gears. I couldn't move my point of sight or turn to look around unless I followed the certain pattern my brain saw. Another time, the walls had a bunch of zippers that opened with hands reaching out. The room quickly shrank in towards me until I was in a sac with all those hands smothering me. It was crazy...
Yoooooo!!! The gears! It is the first time I see someone else described it as such beside me. One of the times I did salvia, that's exactly what I saw. The wall had become a fow of gears that were offset, one set going one direction while the other was going in the opposite one.
@@CptVein i smoked it in my car and was parked next to a couch with a pattern of zig zag stripes. The zigs all started moving right and the zags all started moving left and the peaks and the troughs of the zig zags were the only path i could move my body or sight with. Kinda similar
I don't even know how to begin to describe my Salvia trip. The walls all around me and the floor below collapsed. Then I saw piano keys that went on forever but somehow those piano keys were also my entire neighborhood and my neighborhood was collapsing in on itself while also endlessly spreading and spinning..like a treadmill but the very fabrics of matter were what was collapsing and shrinking and expanding? I felt like I was being compressed and stretched and like I was stuck in an insane hell loop. And through this horror, my bf who was my trip babysitter says I was laughing hysterically and it freaked him out.
When I smoked Salvia i flipped out of myself upside down and was then in a grocery store where everything was made of noodles. The people, the products, the shopping carts. Everything. It was like those old Chex-Mix commercials but way more intricate and on another level Like avant garde noodle art.
Love this plant! If you start with the lowest dosage and are in a safe space/with a friend or two, then it can be an absolutely beautiful experience x0x
I have salvia plants at home and didn’t know it was a psychedelic until this video. So is it the flower or the leaf that you take? Do you ingest it or smoke it, and what is a safe dose for your 1st time please😇
Salvia was..... terrifying. It was the shortest yet most intense place I've ever been. It doesn't even give you a chance to take it all in. You blast off and you're back. Usually not even on the couch you started on.
I have smoked this once. It was an awesome experience. I would probably use it one or two more times ever again. It was not bad - but not recreational like that either - it opens up the mind to a whole new level of experience. It is great as a once a lifetime experience. One could lose their grip on the reality if they use this like everyday or often - like one would use cannabis.
Yeah this stuff is seriously legit. I've done every drug except heroin and meth, and just one good inhale made my perspective seemingly "pull back" as if I was observing myself in a still life painting. It's some potent stuff for real. My friend hit it, and after staring off into space for 5 minutes, he suddenly leapt off the couch exclaiming "I'm not a part of them!" apparently referring to the couch and the lamp beside him. XD great times.
I’ve tripped a total of 4 times on salvia - every time on the highest potency they sold. Trips were crazy and I enjoyed it. Though I have witnessed people on a bad trip. I’ve learned never lay down if you’re going to trip because it can give you the sense of helplessness, and TV’s can be bad as well. But every trip I’ve personally had was pretty wild lol
It was never meant to be smoked. You're supposed to chew it up while holding the juices in your mouth for a few minutes, spitting them out, repeating. But people had to smoke it, on camera, and got it banned because they fell down the staircase.
The salvia trip happened literally the exact second I blew out the smoke. I hallucinated that someone just took their sneaker out my mouth because that is exactly how the salvia tasted - really horrible and unpalatable stuff. Then I experienced geometry on a whole different plane of existence. I imagined the walls running parallel to the origin point of existence. I slid my body across the walls feeling as if everything beyond existed in a different dimension.. and just like that it was over and I didn't even believe what just happened. I thought, for a second, that the salvia didn't do anything at all until I realized it did. I never tried it again.. it was somewhat unpleasant without any euphoria whatsoever
I was thrown into a black void with an oversized 2-liter red coke cap spinning in the distance. I felt like if I could squeeze myself between the void and the knurled edge of the coke cap I could get back to reality. And so I forced myself between the black and the cap and came to on the floor, on all fours, with all my friends staring at me with horrified expressions on their faces. It took me a few hours to remember how my day had started.
i was a paramedic back in the day and i got a call about a college freshman who was passed out on the snow holding a pipe filled with i dont know what. god bless him, it was a sorry sight to see. turns out it was salvia and the kid who was zonked out was actually me having an out of body experience
It’s true I was there

U did salvia with your vibrator?
Lmao when I did it, I felt like I was a page in a huge bible shaped book being turned & squeezed into a tight playdoh circle
I had 2 bad scary salvia trips and in the worst one I was a giant potato chip that was then thrown into a giant grinder and squeezed out like sausage. Other comments here describe similar feelibgs of being plastic / squeezed like play doh. I wonder why this is a common experience for humans?
My boyfriend on Salvia felt he was melting into the floor and then he saw the creation and destruction of past civilizations across the world and then he saw an old man sitting in the corner of our room and spoke with him (I couldn't make sense of it) and then he saw the whole world burn... All of this happened within 10mins...he felt like he had lived a thousand years overlooking

A peak Salvia experience is so indescribable and shocking, most folks only do it once. No one knows quite what to make of that experience, including myself.
Ya, I don't have the words. If I had to describe it would be asjti lofdigao njkfasun
It’s really spooky stuff. I tried just a very little hit with a friend of mine and neither of us liked that trip but he left the rest of the salvia with me and went home. I don’t know why I thought it was a good idea to see what it could really do but I smoked a couple huge tokes on it and my room became a different place I couldn’t walk in. Like a maze. None of my furniture was there anymore and I had to walk down this imaginary hall to my bed that I couldn’t see but I knew where it was supposed to be and bumped into it and laid down. My brain still worked but my eyes could not see reality anymore. I couldn’t walk because there was no floor to walk on. Reality was gone and replaced by a maze of hallways with obviously no way out so I laid there waiting for the hallucination to go away.
When reality returned I took the rest of the salvia and flushed it down the toilet. Scariest trip I ever had and I’ve never tried it again.

Salvia is unlike anything on this earth. If you don't respect the plants, salvia will show you how and why you should respect them. It is out of this world.
This! People take salvia thinking that they can control it or try to. They don't understand that one of the aspects of the experience is to not try to control it... It's actually impossible.
If you don't go with it, if you try to get off the roller coaster once it starts, you're disrespecting and insulting what the plant has to offer and show you. The goddess you're about to meet (regardless, once the trip starts) knows you don't want to be there, and she will make sure you get fucked sideways and the door hits your ass on the way out. It's just a law of salvia.
The way that it temporarily rewires your brain, puts your mind and ego into submissive mode, and if you try to control or take charge, those wires short-circuit and you get an error message (so to speak) thus giving you the infamous bad trip. *You physically can't over power the deconstruction of your ego...With your own ego...* This is what people don't understand. The deconstruction of your ego on this plant will win. Every fucking time.
JoeSkutnik Well put!!! I always felt a distinct feeling that the experience was guided by a conscious force outside of my own. If someone was going to try salvia for the first time, I'd say, it's a dream-like trip. Prepare your mind and body to enter a dream. Don't be afraid, and by God don't try to control it. Let go of everything and just go with it. That could mean the difference between pure amazement, and sheer terror.
JoeSkutnik Chuck Norris might win!

+Time for Fun they know shit. they just know how to take advantage of the vast majority that dont know shit.
+Time for Fun I agree. I'd also suggest that the reason why Salvia Divinorum hasn't been a massive priority for the DEA, is because that in addition to the very loose reasoning as to why it could be harmful, it also does not provide an opportunity to criminalise any one social, financial or ethnic demographic that a ruling class consider undesirable (crack cocaine for poorer black folk, meth for poorer white folk etc.).
The primary motivation for criminalisation of certain drugs is incarceration, not eliminating physical risk, so there would be little point wasting money and resources of criminalising a drug whose primary users are not considered undesirable from a classically conservative point of view.

Many years ago I had a Salvia plant that was gifted to me by a friend. It grew well in my house next to my desk beside the window. So I had a lot of leaves to experiment with. Most of my experiences were like talking to an elderly wise woman. She pretty much told me how to guide my life, showed me my mistakes and sometimes had me time traveling. She was quite judgmental and didn’t hold back on the harsh criticism. The very first time she told me her history, of how hard life is being desperately poor with no hope of escape. She literally ‘spoke’ to me, first in an ancient language, then in song, then in broken Spanish and finally in pictures and whole telepathic concepts. There seemed to be a group or community of wise ones she was associated with. I haven’t ‘visited’ her in years because I just could not face the harshness of her judgements and how she showed me where I was being foolish or making bad choices. Once when I was having a rough time at my job she showed me how I had literally tied myself to that place with a long golden thread. To regain my peace of mind I needed to cut that golden thread. I quit that job two weeks later. Then one late autumn day I left the Salvia plant outside to sunbathe and that night we had an early frost… next day it was a black mushy mass of frost bitten leaves. Very powerful tool but one must be brave and work with it for a long time to understand it at all. Now so many young people abuse it because in our culture there are almost no wise elders to show them how to use it properly. Such a shame. It is not a party drug and should not be used for kicks… unless you want to have your ass kicked. As David Byrne said: ‘This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no fooling around!’
All psychedelics shouldn't be treated as party drugs but as serious medicine.
Oh good. You saw her too. She was critical of me too, but kind. She wanted me to be and do better. Like a grandmother that loves you but has no filter or time for concern about your feelings.
@noahjuanjuneau9598 how did you use it?
Right on!
Guess what bro... the old woman was you all along, judging your life decisions and not letting yourself off the hook for your actions.
I hope you don't still think the old lady was an actual being. It's clearly a manifestation of the self without ego to protect you as you critique yourself honestly.
If you didn't like her critiques, it means you needed to change because you aren't happy with who you are and what you are doing.
Salvia is NOT a party drug.
Take it as a party drug and you're gonna have a bad time.
Take it as a spiritual experience with a clean mind. Preferably alone or with a very good trustworthy friend.
James Insalaco Its called an out of body experience its fun. Same as acid in a sense but diffrent and doesnt last 8 hours like Acid

how could you even eat 4 leaves? Salvia Divinorum is the most bitter thing I have ever tasted in my life. I mean, if you didn't know about the high, why not stop after 1 awful tasting leaf?

Salvia is one crazy trip. Back when it was still legal in my state, my friends and I tried 100x. We all tripped pretty hard. I ended up hallucinating an entirely different world from the dark back yard I was in. At first I was in a sort of hellish landscape, and I was on a conveyor belt with black lines flowing through my body. I saw my friends around me as a strange group of playful demons. I faded back into reality momentarily, only to end up in a swimming pool on a sunny day. I can't remember much after that, just kind of falling through different realities like translucent layers, like pages in a book. It's unexplainable. After that, we dared to try the 140x. On that, I seriously thought I was going to disappear from existence completely. I saw myself as a singular point of red light surrounded by darkness. I kept hearing a phrase that didn't make much sense, "the ceiling and the floor are keeping you here". It was weird. Then, I swear to god, I became a kernel of corn in a field, and was harvested, boxed as Orville Redenbacher's popcorn, and shipped to a grocery store. There, sitting on the shelf in a red box, I saw through the eyes of the box itself. I saw people shopping, clear details in their faces and everything. And I was just hoping that somebody would buy me. That was pretty much the end of that trip. I don't think I could handle a salvia trip nowadays, lol
I loves me some Orville Redenbaucher on movie night.
Should probably be careful next time though; I'm pretty sure I don't wanna microwave someone who's tweakin on salvia.

I tried Salvia for about a year in the mid 90's. It's always amazing to watch the veils of reality ripped from your grasp.
One thing I learned about salvia is that if you want interesting hallucinations, you must have an interesting life. The first time I did salvia, I hallucinated that was at the drive thru at Jack In The Box, and I was yelling at my husband to pay the cashier. We were at home. In our living room. Not in a car, and definitely not at Jack in the Box.
Every body can have a different experience with salvia, and I am not the type to hallucinate, even with acid, mescaline, or salvia. But like someone above said, with salvia, you realize that this IS it. You're not "in" the car, you ARE the car. This is the absolute reality we have shielded ourselves from. Unfortunately, for bodies like me, it only lasts a short time, before the defense mechanisms come back on line.
And then the cashier said: "Ma'am, This is a Wendy's." And that's when you realized she was a three-story tall monster from the Crustaceous period.
LOL

@@GregMoress and I said "God damn you loch ness monsta, I ain't given you no damn tree fiddy."
I did salvia one time, and here's what I recall: I thought to myself "the taste in my mouth is so weird, it's kind of like..." and before I could complete the thought I experienced a profound sense of falling backwards and I saw myself fall backwards and dash my head against something- that something was my own front tooth! Seeing that it was my tooth in my own mouth in my own head, I also saw my own head fall backwards until it hit something, which was also in my own mouth! Again, I saw my own head fall into my own mouth and knock into a tooth, which was in my own head, over and over until the hallucination stopped. All the while I had a tragic sense of seeing my own death. When it stopped, the thought completed "tastes kind of like...I died" as I touched my tongue to my tooth, I realized that I was 'seeing' as if I was standing on my own tongue, or that I was in the perspective of a taste bud or something. I was covered in really cold sweat. Turns out I was reclining comfortably in bed and no injuries of any sort occurred, thank God. Can't believe that stuff is legal.
I’m glad your tooth and mouth and head ended up safely where they belong !! What a wild ride
Yeah best piece of advice for trying salvia is start with a low dosage and be sitting down comfortably. That falling/sinking sensation is no joke, it's like having an anvil strapped to your back and being pushed off a boat in the ocean (you're not so much going down as being pulled under, imo). Turns out you can breathe in this water, but that doesn't really make the sensation any easier to acclimatize to. My first time I was standing on a 2-rung stepstool to breathe the smoke out of a tiny basement window and I definitely fell off, even though it was like 1 ft off the ground. Also, salvia TASTES TERRIBLE, so be prepared to cough up a lung. To all tryers, go boldly but safely, and best of luck!
Oooo its like a crab taste reminds me of old bay
My dude, im just a little buzzed atm and that hitting your head on your own tooth thing. Piss right off with that man. No.
That's a fcking great example of a salvia trip man
It's legal? Great keep it legal. That's how you handle it. KEEP IT LEGAL. No underground illegal shit, plus you can sell it openly and tax it. like beer. gas. and smokes.
DoctorNerd Exactly.
So why don't we do the same with weed if salvia is a strong hallucination that is worse.
Jayden Jackson I made a post here some time ago about the reason for marijuana's criminalization and how it was tied to William Randolph Hearst's monopoly of the American media. The stigma has never gone away. Salvia is a new drug, that... thankfully, is scary for most people. Not scary as in cartels and organized crime scary - more like most ppl who try it once are spooked out of doing it over and over again and abusing it. I personally love it because it's like a short psychedelic reboot for my brain, and I've done it hundreds of time with no lasting effects, yet. Marijuana on the other hand has such high potential for abuse, because it's so enjoyable. Basically, the people on Capitol Hill know this and condone salvia because it is culturally insignificant and its uniqueness gives it pharmaceutical potential, whereas marijuana is seen as culturally detrimental and has contested(although expanding) medicinal exploitability.
yes!!
It's legal because it's a more recent drug but it's still sold by dealers through shady shit they just do it out in the open but it's definitely gonna become illegal because the government can't control who is buying it and partly because they won't get a cut

Salvia certainly is very interesting.... I think I would like to relate some of my experiences and observations. When I was much younger, in my late 20's, I had some friends introduce me to Salvia while at a small camp-ground music festival. They were very respectful of the plant and it was taken with a sense of reverence for the spiritual aspect, or as a teacher. It wasn't pitched as a party drug, novelty, or as something to be taken lightly. So for me, as it was with my good friend LSD, a lot of my trip was centered around discovering things about how my mind worked and created my perception of reality. Salvia had some interesting things to teach there...
On my first experience, the world as I saw it became like a diorama. There was the immediate foreground, the camp fire, the semicircle of people around that, then the trees, then they sky, and stars. The levels of "depth" to my visual field seemed to be layered ... like a diorama. The whole of my visual experience was also kind of like a veil or a tapestry. The stars were like pinholes of light coming through a tapestry. And and interesting thing was that all around the arc of my visual perception, while layered like a diorama, and also stretched across my perception like a tapestry or veil (it had this quasi-unreal quality), there was something going on at the corners. It seemed that at the edge of my perception, especially at the left-most end of my visual field, the "tapestry" was "flapping open" like it wasn't quite attached or anchored, and I had a profound sense that there was a world behind that tapestry and there were "entities" of unknown type that were behind it, working the "machinery" of creating my reality perception... and they had what I would describe as an elf-like sense of humor... maybe seeming to be mischievous but well intended. That was all a feeling... I didn't actually "see" any entities. Another very important impression I got from this is that people in the "diorama" were different than say the trees or rocks or sky. I had a profound sense that people were like a card-board cut-out and that behind each "person" there was an entirely different reality, and the "person" was like the intersection between realities. I took this as everyone having their own subjective reality that intersected with mine and others to create the "consensus reality".
Later I became interested enough to acquire a quantity of raw leaves, and did some acetone extraction (dangerous: don't try this at home kids) to create my own concentration. So there was a short time where myself, some of my siblings, and friends experimented with this interesting plant. Here are some anecdotal observations gleaned from these experiments...
Geometry becomes some thing you can sort of feel or perceive cutting through reality. For example, a round doorknob might give you the sense of the circle of the knob extending into space as a circular "cut" in reality, for lack of a better word. Or as my brother (tried to) explain it, the edges of things seemed to exist not only in 3D reality but also seemed like they were intersections with another dimension or reality behind the cracks. Very hard to articulate that. But there was definitely something to the perception of geometry and edges. Probably behind my sense of a diorama on my first experience, and the sense of a reality behind the cardboard-cutout experience of people in my visual field. Also these invisible projections of planes and stuff through space felt like they went through you as well.
Gravity perception, or sense of heaviness or presence was something that others seemed to experience more than I did, in particular. So there is an effect on that perception, but I can't speak to it too much.
With regard to dissociation, we all noticed that sometimes it would seem that maybe the lower half of your body was in one dimension and the upper part in another. Sort of like dissociating from part of you body experience but not all of it.. also with a strongly geometric component. Speaking of body perception, I could also say that at some points, I strongly felt like my body was maybe dried out and hollow, and I felt literally like a bag of bones more than a solid fleshy entity. I am not sure I would say these were exactly a "dissociative" experiences. But it is the best I can come up with for words to describe it.
The final thing I learned from Salvia has to do with the construction of the model of reality we carry around in our heads. I really noticed this while at a friend's house one time. I realized that the model of the room I hold in my perception is just that: a model. The coffee table was the same coffee table from when I was 4yo, until I focused my attention on it. Then it became the table as it existed in the present, with its details. But the same was true of the lamp in the corner, the wall, the rug... All of these things were "held in place" in my perception of the room by stand-in objects I had experienced when I was about 4yo or so. Like the objects I encountered at that age became the models for things in my future perceptions of reality. The rug was the stand-in rug until I focused on it, then it had all the qualities of the actual rug. Same for the lamp, the walls, etc. So I became very aware of how my perception of reality was really just a model in my head that I was holding, made from primitives I experienced when very young, until I focused my perception on the actual object. Then they would flesh out with their details and not be the "stand-in" objects any longer. I found this very, very fascinating! I am reminded of this experience a bit when reading about Virtual Reality headsets and the idea of "foveated rendering". This is a trick used where the periphery of your vision is not rendered in great detail, but what you're looking at is rendered in high quality. It works by tracking your eyes so the computer knows what part of the display you're actually looking at. It saves on processing power. But my Salvia experience was much more about the construction of the model of reality in my head than it was about the macula or fovea (center of your vision, region of your retina).
I have not done Salvia since those days when it was new, interesting, and my milieu and I were experimenting with it. Just sort of fell away from it. But I do strongly believe it is a "teacher" of sorts, and deserves to be researched. The older I get, the less inclined I am to use psychedelics. Not that I don't like or definitely appreciate them for what they have done for me. But these days I see them as powerful spiritual, metaphysical, or psychological tools and approach them with great respect for their powerful medicine. So I don't tend to take them lightly, or frequently. But they have been an important part of my personal development that I am eternally grateful for having experienced. I am excited, if not elated, that there is now so much research again into the uses of psilocybin in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and especially for those coping with end-of-life like late stage cancer patients and others who need to learn how to face those very very hard realities. I look forward to a greater understanding, both pharmacological and psychological, of these substances. Especially psilocybin and LSD, but also MDMA. Salvia may not have as obvious a psychological benefit as these others can have. But it certainly deserves more study, both in and out of pharmacology.
Psychedelics are powerful, powerful tools and while they can be loads of fun in the right set and setting, they are not to be taken lightly. And there seems to be truth to the fact that if you're already predisposed to a condition such as schizoaffecive or other similar disorders, they might bring that out to the fore. So be aware, be respectful, be responsible. They might seem at first like toys. But they are also very, very powerful 'allies' and teachers. Very strong medicine. And if you're unprepared, they can take you on a ride from the heights of heaven to the depths of hell and back. But "good" or "bad" trip, there is usually something profound to be learned if you have the eyes to see, the ears to hear, as it were.
Wow you really had a good explanation on the "model of reality" thing. I've noticed that and haven't been able to put it into words, but that's exactly correct. I've had a different type of experience though. It actually did the opposite, or maybe we're just describing it differently. My self-constructed version of reality actually barged into how I normally see things. Like I was in a circle with my friends and I could still see everything, but there was also a distinct layer of my mental model of reality that was a vast dioramic backdrop of towering buildings circling us. The deepest I got that time was that I slowly melted into one of the windows or something and my mental model almost covered up reality, becoming way way more detailed. After that it faded pretty fast. But it was similarly a sort of diorama until the point where I meshed with it all.
This was a great read. Thanks!
Nice.
Great summary and explanation of your experience. Very interesting. Your insight is greatly appreciated
Well interpreted
Once while taking it in my friend's car, i literally thought i was in a car chasing scene and a whole orchestra playing in my ears, not to mention i literally felt like we were going 200 kmh, while in reality we were parked on the side of the road 😂😂😂
I grew Salvia a few times, it's a moderately pretty plant - a few of the more distressed seedlings grew into a spiral pattern. It was quite cool and I feel appropriate considering the psychedelic properties.
Wish I had kept pics
where do you get the seeds for them what
@@LanIsOriginal I hear this is a cutting only plant and most seeds sold are counterfeit
I've been trying to find the plant and it just shows me sage. Where you planting sage or something different?
@@nolanmaxwell3167 you gotta look for 'salvia divinorum', if it doesn't say salvia divinorum then it isn't. If it's legal where you live then there's probably a couple online headshops in your country selling cuttings, generally speaking it can't be grown from seed and all salvia divinorum seeds for sale online are scams.
I am really curious, I heard that the plant doesnt produce seeds? how did you acquire it?
I spent some time with it and still interact with it occasionally. When friends and i were young teens we spent a good couple years researching various psychedelicsn before we ever tried them. I've always taken them with specific purposes, in safe environment, babysitter, and mental and physical prep before driving in . I reckon 95% of people experimenting with these kinds of chemicals don't approach it that way at all and suffer for it. Managing all of those specific things is so very important when using salvia.
It's important to acquire from One source at one strength for consistency using a digital scale to weigh doses. It's always better to have an experience that leaves you a little wanting than too much which can be incredibly hard to cope with. Take notes and make adjustments gradually. Salvia definitely isn't s a recreational drug. That needs to be stressed.
I'm not going to go in to the details of the factors that should be present for a productive experience. All the details are easy to find in literature out there.if you approach it appropriately it's can be.., beyond anything that you can imagine. I've never had two experiences that were the same. There's certain elements that kind of consistent for me. But the trips go beyond. The visions the environments the beings that one can experience is baffling to me still. If it's purely a product of my own mind affected and stimulated by the particular chemical I have no idea how in the world I could generate the kind of spaces that I've experienced. It's so hard to not believe that you go to dimensional spaces that really exist. It's so fascinating but it can be intensely terrifying too I don't recommend it to anyone but... Just be careful and don't hurt yourself.
One thing I don't see anyone mentioning is the "side-effects" if you will. I did it once about 15 years ago with a friend, the high/trip was pretty cool, felt like my bedroom was a one room house in the forest from the Blair Witch Project but what I remember strongly is the increased salivation, cold sweat/clammy feeling, feeling physically uncomfortable (and unable to get comfortable) and not being able to go to sleep later.
It's kinda nice if you sprinkle a little bit in your weed, certainly alleviates the cotton-mouth, this is what I did with the rest of the stuff I had because I didn't want to do it (pure) again.
My brother tried it the next day and and ended up lying on his bed with his feet on the wall because he thought he was in a kindergarten and gravity had shifted so he was trying to walk up the wall. He also thought my name was Jonathan.
Your brother: ever since the time my brother Johnathan did salvia and thought he was standing up and that I was lying downn and trying to walk up the wall, he seems to have forgotten his name and tells people to call him Mr. In Vacuo.
Stuffs intense, man...
@@dont.ripfuller6587 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I enjoyed that very much! 😆
Well, all I got as side-effects was feeling very hot, and having dreams with very vivid colors the nights after.
I think what's more important is that no one talks about the unique propriety of the plant (I searched but apparently no other hallucinogenic plant has this), the inverted tolerance. The more you take salvia, the more effects you get. The tolerance goes down to normal in about a week.
Another thing, people mostly take extracts, wich are surely why the plant is described as very powerful. Of course when someone takes 30 times a normal dose, specially for the first time trying it. Nobody would do that for any drug, but apparently everyone does with salvia.
@@AGKyran That's really interesting, I'd never heard of the inverted tolerance.
With the doses, are you sure that the "times" means times the normal dose? The store where we bought it from had 5 or 10x as the lowest and we bought the next one up, 10 or 15x which the guy recommended for first timers. Also I think we all got the same side-effects (but as I say it was 15 years ago so forgive me for being a tad hazy on the details...).
@@InVacuo It's not exactly the normal dose, it depends of how you take it.
A 10x extract simply means that you take 10 grams of dried leaves and you concentrate it with chemical products, so you end with 1 gram.
If you want to go simply you'll make a cigarette and add salvia. With a bong or a pipe you'll basically add around one gram, it's not very accurate though.
Otherwise you can make a tea and then of course you'll add much more.
On Erowid (wich is a very sure site about this), they say a strong dosage for dried leaves is 0,75g. So I was even underestimating it apparently. I thought one gram was a pretty light experience to start with.
Of course it's relative. Some people have a higher tolerance, some a lower.
I think it's logical the person in the store recommanded a higher dose. Most people tend to prefer to start with a higher dose, as for a good number of people otherwise they won't feel a thing.
It oddly works like when people smoke weed for their first time and don't feel anything. I don't know the science behind it but it's like there's a time for the brain receptors to wake up.
Don't worry about the hazy memory, I'm far from being the best on this too. Anyway you seem to have you and your friend had a strong experience.
Personally I always took dried leaves (I took some 40x once and it did nothing), and I got used to smoke a salvia cigarette before sleeping. But the first real effect I had was with a pipe. It also need a lighter that can burn it with a hot temperate.
Salvia is very specific xD
My best experience stays when I smoked it in front of my computer and suddenly my right eye was seeing a jungle instead. I heard a woman laughing. It was somehow funny. I think I should try it again. A bag of dried leaves it cheap as hell and can last soooo long.
It's an incomparable experience. The time dilation I experienced with it was unlike anything you may ever understand unless you try it.
I have had 4 days in a Salvia trip. Only 10 min trip lol. Friends have taken ×40 doses and felt like they've been gone for years.
@@EverywhereDrums I never experienced time dilation with salvia. I have in martial arts, one episode that was less than a hundredth to a thousandth of a second, but seemed to last for minutes. All I experienced with salvia was pure unadulterated terror, and then pure GOD. No hallucinations, but I suspect, after 72 years on the planet, I actually am different than most people, and don't hallucinate.. I have never hallucinated, not even on 12.5 grams of LSD/125 100 mic tabs.
@@3mountains307 you're a liar. You would die on 12.5 grams of lsd. They gave 700mg to an elephant and it had a seizure and died.
Loved Salvia, the great thing about it is that it's short (also legal). Having tried other hallucinogenics, and lived a few bad trips, knowing that the effects only last a few minutes is a relief.
I've heard so much amazing trip experience on salvia, but not tried them once myself..But on my ''MUST DO LIST''

I've tripped on Salvia on 2 occasions....but mostly i do microdose on mushrooms and i can say it has improved my daily attitude, I;m more focused and less feeling less trauma..
Shrooms take you for a ride.

This is the best way I can describe what happened to me. I was in a giant pink weather balloon hurling myself over massive half pipes trying to get to 2 Wizard of Oz floating heads. When I came to my friends were laughing at me as I had stumbled over the couch and belly crawled across the room.
Another person said they were standing on the edge of an eyelash that was blinking.
I so miss SciShow episodes with Hank in them. Idk why but i just enjoy hearing science from him. Such a good explainer lol
Smoked Salvia a few times. The last time. . . well. . lets just say it was one of the most intense things I've ever experienced in my entire life.
Heard about the addition to the controlled substance list when I was transitioning out of the military in '04/'05 and it made my to do list. Tried it and OMFG. Not a horrible experience, but yeah it hit fast. I was stuck for a few minutes and tripped where I stood. Def out of body and short lived but I was satisfied and haven't felt that urge to go back.
I unraveled like an accordion and became everything. It's hard to explain what I saw. Try to imagine a direction that isn't left, right, up, or down, and that's where I went. It felt like a festival, too. I really enjoyed myself, and I felt so safe and secure in this strange reality. It was like my own little safe space between space. I felt so carefree like I was a kid again, before everything. I'm really grateful for this experience 💚

Somehow it always reminds me of a carnival. Just in general. The taste of the smoke tastes like specifically carnival balloons and clowns, and those red and white striped tents. Idk how it's so specific and it's not like I see it or taste it. It just feels like it somehow
Thank you to all of the people who described their experiences with it in the comments.
I hope to experience it for myself some day.
Its so not worth it
It's pretty scary. I'd recommend sticking to weed and shrooms, or an incredibly small dose.

same, and now i want a saliva vid
About a decade ago Salvia was popular in the oil fields of North Dakota along with many other substances we won't talk about here. I experimented with it a couple of times. Definitely a wild trip and over almost as quick as it starts.
I had a Salvia experience when I was 19 that absolutely humbled me. I had never done psychedelics before and had no idea what I was in for. Just thought it was about funky colours and whatnot. What I ended up getting was an experience that felt like a lifetime, where my atheism got torn to absolute shreds. Entities mocked and chastised me for my arrogance and wouldn't relent until I humbled myself, sincerely apologised and earnestly asked them to teach me more. Once I did that, they took me in and raised me as one of their own. I learned and grew, going on to make my own entity family before becoming aware of a tether to my psychical body which had previously been stretched so thin it was impercievable. The tether was undulating, shortening and thickening with each undulation until I found myself back in my body, with my friend asking me how it was. My response was "I need... To not talk... For a while..." and I remained completely speechless for about an hour afterward, apart from asking if we could go smoke a joint. I can never appropriately convey the experience or how real it was. Theists never, ever seemed insane to me ever again. I miss my Salvia entity brethren, but haven't smoked it since. For the longest time, I was terrified that it's a crazy making drug.
I have taken mushrooms since, and they have given me the tools to assimilate what I learned on Salvia in a way that is compatible with consensus reality and everyday waking consciousness.
Psychedelics are utterly fantastic, but they are not toys, and shouldn't be thought of as "drugs" in the same vain as coke, meth, heroin etc. They must be respected. They are not addictive. They are not *just* "hallucinogens." Not everyone can handle them, so I wouldn't recommend them for everyone, but I would absolutely recommend them to the majority of folks who are curious, provided they do at least enough homework to amount to a GED/British A level ahead of time, including philosophy, and get their set and setting right. If you can't handle things like self confrontation, learning who you really are, facing deep fears you didn't even know you had, discovering that reality and conscious experience is so much larger and spectacular than the physical that it makes the physical seem almost not real, or even just simply having no idea what's actually real and what's an illusion anymore, then yeah, write people like me off as crazy and go live your life trip-free. It's all good. If you think you can handle these things, then hey, come join the astral party in the super-dimensional realm of what the f**k! 😂

@@sophiedee2557 Your dodgy plugs are cancer. Stop it.
The thing about psychedelics is, it seems profound and enlightening at the time, but any kind of knowledge or growth obtained from it is fleeting and illusory. If it really was something that can enlighten the masses and promote world peace and empathic kindness, then we would already be living in a better world since the 60s. Clearly the peace and love hippies of the Age Of Aquarius turned into the Karens of the age of the boomers, so anything they learned from the mystical experiences of LSD was temporary and easily forgotten.
I've taken salvia and had shrooms. salvia a few times, and completely laughed my a** off, which my sides hurt for days lol. Shrooms only once and I experience what I was hoping for. Now that's not saying it doesn't cause I have friends that say they've had amazing experiences on shrooms.
Magic mushrooms have allowed me to tap into my creative potential and explore new ideas.
The insights I've gained from magic mushrooms have been invaluable. They've helped me understand myself and the world in a new way.
y'all talk about the benefits of mushrooms, but no one talks about where to fetch from.

Salvia is a fascinating thing, the best description I can give without influencing another’s trip would be pointing out that it’s exactly what happens to cats on catnip, and feels like DMT’s open-carry cousin.
A beautifully profound source of delirious insights, and definitely worth trying if you like that sort of forte.
@Assembled Existence someone on Reddit with more in-depth knowledge than me said this, before I misinterpreted it through lazy inattentive reading and made false comparisons:
The plant that is probably closest to Salvia divinorum is probably the genus Nepeta, aka Catnips. And the chemicals in it are structurally and pharmacologically close to Salvinorins.
Actually, most, if not all, plants in the mint family have chemicals that, like Salvinorin, are agonistic at the Kappa opiate receptor. (KOR, and by chance, our Nepeta leaves look like little hearts... :) ). This includes menthol, as found in chewing gums. It is just that in most of them, it is too weak to notice. But in catnips, the main pharmacologically active components, the Nepetalactones, are strong enough to show clinically active effects.
Both Salvinorins and Nepetalactones have a characteristic lactone group (the ring structure with an oxygen atom in the ring, as well as double bonded to an adjacent carbon atom), it is just the Salvinorin molecule is more complex.
Now, as far as the effects---well, obviously, they are not the same. But many different plants in the mint family, including catnip and lemon balm (Melissa spp) have been used in many different cultures for centuries for anxiety-relieving and sedative effects. Catnip, in my experience, is pretty strong, but it is not exactly "psychedelic"---at least not while we are awake. Effects are usually sedation and relaxation. If taken before sleep, it will usually lead to vivid dreams, some of which might be frightening, and involve contact with "entities", but which are mostly peaceful. It also depends what concentration it is taken in. Tisanes made from leaves and flowers are good, but extract is much stronger. Since my experience with Salvia is limited, I can't really say much about it, but I feel that it is somewhat comparable, especially that, if taken regularly for a few days, everything takes on a slight "otherworldly" feeling. As could be expected, it is somewhat hard to describe the feeling.
Had my first out-of-body experience my first time smoking salvia. Forever changed how i see the world.
Mm, Salvia. Not a 'fun drug' but definitely something that will teach you about yourself. Particularly just how strange the brain and the conscious states it produces can be.

It taught my couch how to eat one of my friends.
***** I briefly learned to communicate with a purple light coming from behind me, but immediately forgot what we said to each other when I turned around.
Erik Wait why is it not a fun drug?
ThePhatWabbit Well I suppose it depends on what your idea of 'fun' is, really, but what I meant was that it isn't something that should be taken lightly.

Experience I have ever felt
I've done salvia a couple times. First time I was incapacitated and all the objects in my room were speaking in a british accent. Second time felt like I was being folded into a continuum of all humans, connected via our lineages, hard to explain but very intense.
Needless to say your experience can vary.
There are books about salvia - in one (sorry don't have title handy) a fellow visits a shaman and does a "traditional" salvia trip: chewing large quantity of fresh leaves for a long period, resulting in a lengthy, more mild trip, where the two engage in conversation with a "plant goddess." As I understood it, you're meant to inquire of the goddess regarding any ailments you have and she tells you the remedy needed.
I wasnt expecting the episode to be so short but packed full of goodies as usual haha
Salvia is amazing. I recommend it in a safe way. I'm sure you will all be happy to hear lots of guys in the army smoked it.
Basically salvia feels like you get tossed from a 3D dimension into a 2D dimension and you feel your brain trying to process the new reality. It becomes the new reality in which you have knowledge that you are alternating from this reality to the next and so on into infinity. The "bad" trips are basically when you get stuck in the salvia loop and you resist it. Resisting the salvia loop will cause panic and trigger a type of fight or flight response that makes the user flail or try to jump out of windows.
Relatable
Dito
I wonder abut the 2D thing. That is an interesting point. I wonder if it is more a regression into a lesser energetic state rather than a progression into a higher one. It is profound in that you stop being a human, but possibly it is a step right back rather than a leap forward. It made me realise everything exists as energy and it is possible to be something that is nothing tangible, what we think of as only a concept. The joint consciousness of an ant colony, the ground with Antelope running over, or the sound a cow makes. Everyone should do it once. Properly, in a silent completely dark safe environment. Don't try to move, just let it happen. It won't hurt you, it will blow your brain up in a good way. :)
Yes exactly, the 2D experience is very common and I have always found this interesting. It's peculiar that people essentially experience the same trip. I also had a overwhelming feeling of remembering "this is how it really is". As if this 2D reality is where I was from originally and now I was back. Pretty scary stuff.
I’ve done Salvia a handful of times and it’s a very unique trip every time. First was out of a four foot bong and a mechanical claw picked me up by the head 3 inches off the ground and made me go up and down the hallways of my house with my feet kicking away. It flipped gravity on me one time where what we consider vertical turned horizontal, falling across the floor. Strangest one was I became a day on a typical paper calendar and spent most of the time trying to figure out if I was Tuesday or Thursday🤔
LOL that last one
Wow, that is weird. I saw judges sitting on blocks of dimensions that folded over and slammed down, all while hearing 'a week last wednesday' or something similar, in an electronic voice, like something off an Underworld album. I seemed to build up a tolerance very quickly. That is the only reason I haven't taken it since.
Just remembered, I also saw Frank Sidebottom beside me. Think he was a TV star in the UK, with a pink papier-mache head. 😅
@@DreadPitt that was amazing. I was standing up on the stoop and this person ask to take a note… Sharpies started to shoot out of my nonexistent shirt pocket as a 2-D level of temporal regulation. I’m pretty sure I’m Tuesday.
Took salvia with a group of my buddies when I was a teen. I just remember having perma-grin for about 5 minutes and things looking “different” hard to describe. My buddies reaction was the best he started laughing uncontrollably for about 5 minutes or so then abruptly stopped looks straight at us and said ah f@&k not you guys again. 😂
I had a "friend" quite aggressively insist i try some extremely potent extract on a bong rip that was quite large and they didn't warn me. It was the most intense but short trip of my life, this stuff is from other dimensions or something, it cannot even be explained.
I immediately proceeded to call my friend and tell him "you gotta try this stuff" granted I explained my situation and he didn't believe me so I told him to repeat 2 gravity blasts back to back like I had foolishly done..
At least Peter Griffin didn't come for him lol
Pleeease do an episode on DMT.
YESS
Agreed that'd be coolio
Josh Bodhi'Sattva
agree. Never had the chance to do DMT. Never even seen any. Done lsd over 300 times easy. X done probaly 70 or 80 times shrooms a dozen times or so and mescaline once. Salvia ONCE. If you get the more potent like 20x or 50x one hit was all it took. It literally did feel like a eternity. Every time I made a move it just felt like the same thing was happening over and over forever. When I finally came out of the real intense part and was able to function again my friend told me it was probabaly around 1 minute. I said fuck that and never touched it or had a desire to touch it again. The only drug I ever did that actually scared me. But I was young then and more carefree , been drug free now for years.
My only experience with salvia was pure horror. I saw trees "bleed," my girlfriends' eyes "bleed," and the clouds in the sky had giant, thick chalky black outlines.
As far as I remember, I felt like I was sinking into the ground. I'm pretty sure it was only 5x or 10x, but I still tripped pretty hard. It was definitely horrifying, but I've heard a lot of people have had great times on it.
I found it kinda scary. My friend that had it he had a couple of his coworkers try it. They were roofers after one of them took a hit he tried to go back to work and he shot himself in the hand with a nail gun and all he could do was just stand there and stare at his hand. Mr friend said when he tried it he wandered out to the edge of the fence at his coworkers house and when he came down he thought oh crap his wife was gonna be pissed because he thought so much time had passed when in reality it was only like 5 minutes. But yeah for me and everyone I personally know of that have tried it. Pretty horrifying for us and the majority except for maybe one want nothing to do with it ever again.
Another thing, I remember laying down, I kept my feet in one position for about a minute, I then moved my feet to the side. I could still feel the previous position of my feet, aswell as where my feet currently are at the same time. Then the feeling of my old feet started to slowly disappear.
feels like being drunk, i guess? like every movement is delayed for 2-3 seconds?
monsterkill164 not even close, it is almost impossible to explain unless you have experienced it
monsterkill164 Absolutely not. It is the furthest thing away from being drunk.
A trip on anything super strong like salvia or DMT is ineffable. It's not even worth it to try and describe with words.
Rick LeRoy I know exactly that you mean, I did it laying down on my couch, and there is still a lot I can't describe in words/remember. But I remember trying to get up and I felt as I was still laying down as I was standing but at the same time I think I was feeling every position I was in to get to my standing position
This plant is no joke. When it first became popular in head shops, I tried a 25x concentrated dried leaf product. I packed a typical size bowl, hit it once, and then pulled out a marb menthol. Before I lit it, I totally dissociated. I believed I was a tube made of light spinning in space. Wondering if "I'd ever become a person again" (literal thought), I started to come out of it. I had put on a Ravi Shankar CD, so sitar music got mixed in to the trip. I then though I had sunk into and became part of the blankets. I figured maybe my wife (ex now) might not see how totally F#@%ed up I was! I came out of it in maybe 5-10 minutes, but it was BY FAR the most intense type of trip I have EVER had, which includes all of the usual suspects, along with real absinthe (I should have said traditional/madeand a couple others. I never used it again, and I strongly advise not taking it, but if you do HAVE A SOBER PERSON watch out for you while tripping.
EDIT: It seems likely that my experience with Absinthe was due to the placebo effect and/or poorly made alcohol with too much methanol in it. I will stand by my description of that evening, but numerous responders who seem well informed about Absinthe or annisette liquors generally have let me know it is not supposed to do anything strange to a person. I also looked up thujone, one chemical in Absinthe believed to be hallucinogenic and while it is considered poisonous/toxic (which it is if enough is ingested) it is not noticeably psychoactive at any dose.
A “literal thought” 🤔🤔🤔 lmao
@@ededdandeddytv5164 It's hard to put into words, it felt like I could only think in words for a minute, not images/sensations/etc. I could talk to myself, but that was all I was saying internally. It was soooooo weird.
Well Absinth is just rich in ethanol. If you would ingest the amount of thujone to have "psychedelic" effects you would be in the hospital later on because it's much more hepatotoxic than ethanol and gives you convulsions, delusions and vertigo. In the US the max allowed concentration of Thujon is 10 mg/l. This isn't enough by far for any effects, its the ethanol.
I dont remember the strength, I had 15x or 25x dried leaf. Same as you packed a bowl and smoked it, then I get the feeling of falling backwards into the couch very fast, right arm tingling kinda feeling like a pulling sensation and the walls had turned into conveyors with people on them and was feeling like I was been pulled in. Such a weird experience, definitely something to try but only once.
@@Meo-cw8lu It could have been a placebo effect thing, I had it in Bulgaria and was told it was traditional absinthe and would be a different experience, so I may have focused on differences and attributed them to the bottle. I experienced a weird blurring of bright lights and they had intense color halos of pinks to greens, and took it at face value. I suppose it could have had a touch more methanol than commercial alcohols do, that would certainly cause altered vision. Also not an experience I was keen to repeat. Your comment got cut off. No it wasn't in the US, I was living in Austria and visiting a friend's hometown in Bulgaria.
"5-10 minutes feels like a hellish eternity " DAMN!!!!!
😂😂😂then you get a bad trip imagine that
@@Amazing.millie 😋 u sexy
It's just that you lose any sense of time. Everything lasts for ever but at the time takes no time. You sober up as quick as it comes on, you'll probably wake up thinking wtf was that
"It is the most powerful naturally occurring hallucinogen we know of..."
* DMT wants to know your location
I've done both, salvia in very high doses, but dmt only the once so probably not the best person to talk about this, but some of my salvia trips while smoking weed felt just as intense as my dmt trip, it was with 80x extract an even when I was back in the room, I was tripping balls, as I raised my head off the kitchen table I held my arm in front of my face, everything below was animated, everything above was real, as I moved my arm it followed so to speak, this was probs only 10 to 15 seconds, but felt super slow motion. Weird as hell sometimes but always leaves you so curious and fully functional within the hour of doing it.
"powerful" is meant to be understood as in "the substance you need the least amount of, to get the threshold effects"
@@TheLouissuper I think the issue is salvia can rewrite your life, but only for ten mins. Dmt does that same give or take, person depdent, how much weed you've smoked ect, bug is normally closer to the half hour hour of tripping balls, in my experience anyway.
Datura will kick both of their asses
Technically, DMT is active in the milligram range, while pure salvinorin A is active at 5 micrograms.
Salvia changed my life. For better or for worse. Had an ego death / scariest / craziest experience of my life. Made me fully understand what I was soon to find out a philosophy called “solipsism”
but weed is illegal... aight coo
+Carl-Richard Løberg W
Weed became illegal long ago and was viewed as a drug that makes you go insane, it's going to be difficult to re-legalize it because a lot of people still view it as the bad drug it was viewed as a long time ago
Thanks to propaganda from the tobacco and alcohol industries
Weed is legal in my state. Oregon USA for madicanal and recreational!!
Well Salvia can make you so stupid that you hurt yourself easily
I did savia and I tripped SOOO bad I thought the floor was a ice ring for like 6 min
First time I ever did it I was sitting on bleachers at dark park with my bestfriends. Took a bong rip and immediately started to like see myself from a 3rd perspective and started crying and while crying telling my friends I could see the future and we’re gonna have beautiful lives. I was just over taken by emotion and a vision of the future. Salvia is a crazy plant, I love it and respect it very much.
@Trip_world1_

Cool story, did your future actually turn out how you saw it?
It feels like a life time on the otherside. The first thing that happened to me was it felt like my mouth opened 360° then I kinda fused to my couch, which spiraled through space and timealong a rainbow bridge, things around me were like a tool music video. The giant face made out of everything noticed me and in a stern but reassuring tone told me that I shouldn't have seen this, that I wasn't supposed to be here yet. Then all the rest of its eyes looked at the central one which pulled me through it. For a brief moment I knew everything all the secrets of the universe, but the human mind cannot process that much info and it quickly fades, my consciousness was pushed through a thin fluid membrane and back into my corporeal vessel, which was covered in cold sweat and tasted like mothballs. Salvia is one hell of a teacher. And should not be abused, it is to be respected, especially for those with a weak mind.
I miss Salvia SO MUCH! Like an ex girlfriend, seriously. I can't do it anymore for reasons, but it was like being in heaven. Most people seem to hate it though, they say it's like being in hell. It has a weird reverse tolerance so the more you do the less you need the next time. If you do enough just smelling it can set you off into another dimension. If you do it a lot you start to get really weird, but it will blow your mind wide open.
+Bill Curran That was my experience with it the couple times I tried it. The experience was calming, relaxing, and fun.
I hate the smell of salvia it gives me nightmarish flashbacks
*****
Yep
Bill Curran "reasons"
Bad trip ?
But is it Big Money?
Hank, please do a video on saliva.
my "friend" once gave a a bong of salvia with weed on top so i didnt see the salvia. it resulted in myself floating about my house and looking down on everyone in the room. i honestly thought i'd died and was floating to heaven. i've never been so scared in my life
Thank you so much for this video! I've seen a lot of videos of tweaked people, but not a lot of education on the topic. This was beautifully concise too.
I got PTSD from a Salvia Trip. The most intense and shocking experience of my entire life; it lasted 20 min but it felts like hours...
Salvia helped cure my PTSD from regular life lol

It turned my living room into the price is right set with blinking clear/colored lights moving in a single direction on floor.

I thought the Title said "What is Saliva?"
Me too!
SciShow, I would love to see an episode actually about saliva. Salvia is pretty darn interesting, but it's not quite what I clicked for... :P
I did too.....I was like WTH is salvia???? Sooo...I guess more educational than I had imagined.
Proves that we dont read full words ever. In fact cambridge found out that is the 1st and last letters are ok the inner letter canbe mixed up and we would still understand. We never actuallu look at the text los

Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here....I still say the Best are mushrooms
If you live in Canada you can buy them from a legit dispensery online. That's what I do.

Wow, being that it acts on the opiate receptors that makes the experience a friend of mine had make a lot of sense. Basically, my friends and I had gotten a hold of salvia several years ago and we all had pretty intense trips, but when one of our older (over 40yr) friends tried it, a friend who had severe problems with opiate addiction- that friend had the most intense trip we had seen, in comparison to our own and even those we had seen online. Given that opiate addiction often works through increasing the amount of opiate receptors in the brain, our opiate-addicted friend would presumably have a significantly greater amount of opiate receptors than the rest of us (who did not have any exposure to opiates). If salvia acts on the opiate receptors, then it would make sense that having more opiate receptors would cause a more intense trip, as seen in our friend. This is just one person, but it could be grounds for further investigation to find if opiate use is associated with more intense salvia trips. A potential confound, however, would be that this friend also suffers from schizophrenia; which may also influence the nature of the experience. The the question is: does opiate addiction increase the potency of salvia by proxy of having more opiate receptors to be acted on by the active compounds in salvia that act on these opiate receptors?
PS
In good news, that friend no longer uses opiates after having been through several recovery programs. I don't think salvia had much to do with this friend kicking the addiction, but I just figured I'd share the fact that this person is off opiates currently and has been for some time.
How is you friend doing now
@@KillerSwyne1 He's fine, got off opiates and just does Kratom now.
@@HerbQuest isn’t that just worse weed? What does that do?
@@KillerSwyne1 Worse weed? Well first of all cannabis isn't bad, it never killed anyone, you can't overdose on it. Kratom is a whole different species, acts on a whole different part of the brain.
Weed effects the cannabinoid receptors. Kratom effects the opiate receptors. Kratom is not weed, weed is not kratom. Just like how carrots are not apples (carrot is a root based starch carbohydrate, while the apple is a fruit based sugar carbohydrate). In fact, you don't even smoke kratom - its consumed as a tea.
What does it do though? That's a good question. Small doses are like coffee. Larger doses are like pain pills. Very large doses are much like being violently sick from alcohol (dizziness, nausea, and loss of motor function). You can't die from Kratom alone (overdose) on standard doses; but people have died from combining Kratom with large doses of other opiates, because opiates can shut down the heart/lungs at the right dose, and since Kratom is an opiate, it has the ability to potentiate other opiates (i.e. make them stronger) and that can push large doses into lethal doses. Kratom by itself is regarded as safe though- maybe not as safe as weed.
So... No its not a "worse weed" at all, it is its own thing. As for what it does; it relieves pain and it is effective at stopping withdrawal symptoms associated with opiates. So if a heroin addict is dope-sick from not having access to heroin (or other opiates) then Kratom can help ease their suffering as a legal herbal alternative. With that said, I personally would not recommend people that do not have some kind of opiate addiction to try Kratom. It ought to be regarded as a medicine to help with dope sickness from opiates and ought not be recommended to sober people nor mere stoners due to the fact that it is somewhat addictive in and of itself and has a pattern of withdrawal associated with it (month of depression) although Kratom withdrawals are far less severe than the withdrawals of other opiates.
One of the most intense experiences I’ve ever had. Most abuse it and don’t respect it’s power.
I can't see anybody abusing salvia more than once. Salvia is the momentary ticket to the terror and majesty of GOD. BTW, this was "one" of the most intense experiences you've had. What was more intense?
My only experience with Salvia was when I was about 19, with my older brother supervising. It started with a slow pulse, as though I was feeling and seeing a sound wave hitting me. As the pulse enveloped me my vision went dark, and I began to pass upward through a mosaic, almost like a stained glass ceiling. I started to get a glimpse of what was through this ceiling; it was dark but I could make out three large shadowy figures positioned around a large table (the surface of which was this ceiling I was passing through). I heard one of them say; "what's he doing here, he's not supposed to be here", and I got a sense that the figures were panicked and looking over their shoulder for someone (their superior). I looked down at the table and it was light up with countless points of light and a grid, each one appeared to have a value assigned (a string of numbers), like some kind of map of the universe. I felt myself being pushed back down as I came to. I could feel myself smiling and heard myself apoligising for smiling too much, but my bother told me I wasn't even smiling. All this only lasted a few minutes and I felt perfectly normal after only a couple more minutes.
This has more than freaked me out. Around 5yrs ago i had total ego loss from some x80 salvia. My experience was extremely similar but what are the odds of meeting a couple alien type beings saying “what’s he doing here, he’s not supposed to be here”
Look into Dr. Michael Heiser’s work on the divine counsel, very fascinating rabbit hole. Thanks for sharing your trip, I’ve never tried salvia yet I’m thinking about trying it by holding it in my mouth, the documentary with Hamilton Morris he took salvia that way and it sounded like an amazing experience and he was guided by a medicine woman
I saw beings. Human? On one trip they were sitting in a circle and I was looking down and in on them, and they all looked up at me with faces of disapproval and I knew they were not happy I was there. At that point I got up and ran to get away and as I was moving through the house there was another one to my right standing there looking me with the same disapproving look. Then it all faded away and I was on the back porch with a massive feeling of dread and disappointment.
I experienced an entire life as myself but in vastly different circumstances, many friends and family both in my “real” life and the life I lived apparently only within my mind but nobody from my current existence was in this other life I lived. I had an Asian wife and a few very capable and talented kids and I had a career as an engineer which is a complete departure from every occupation I’ve ever actually had in this world. Obviously there was so much more I’d have to explain to give the most accurate description of this event , what I’ll say is that it was such a profound experience that even a few years later I still have times when it’s on my mind and I try to understand what it all means if it actually means anything at all. I definitely wasn’t prepared for what transpired, while I don’t regret it by any means I think if I could go back in time to this night I’d probably suppress my curiosity with salvia and abstain from giving it a try.
#thisreallyhappened
@@darkstar.357lol, you're uneducated. This is a typical salvia trip.
Salvia has many other uses. For instance, its tea help regulate sweat and it’s recommended to improve digestion. I even saw that it can be planted as a natural way to reduce the presence of ants in the garden.
I've had it twice I think.
I think a quote after the last time I took it sums it up. "I felt dead forever"

@Micotrip
I've had this many times in my life but the worst experience I ever had was taking a giant bong rip then realizing it wasn't just weed.... I exhaled and coughed a couple times and looked at my friend and he just said "bye" and I was gone for about 10 minutes then I got up and wasn't too happy about it but I was still laughing my ass off because apparently as I faded out of existence I said "O no, here we go again" then just dropped to the floor. 😂
so you smoked some weed....
that was me when ever I did dabs, and now I refuse them!
Think you ment to say that you realized it wasn't just weed. I have never given anyone anything with telling them. I grew up in Humboldt county California and so weed everything else under the sun is available and as a young person that's all we had to do was party. My word of advice for anyone with salvia is to do it through a pipe the first time and always have a sober person. I watched a friend fall down and cut him ass cheek open on his now broken $400 bong... He had to have stitches and never wanted to do it again. I have done my share and sitting on the floor with a pipe in a comfortable place with people you trust is an absolute must. My first experience was bad, through a bong and I was afraid of it for a few years after that. But tried it with a pipe years later. Sitting on the ground in the forest, it was an eye open and helped me spiritually. If you respect it as a medicine and not a drug, it can definitely teach you.
@@h.a.3156 - the first time I got real dabs from the MMJ market I did the "kill your friend" w/ dabs thing but I did it to myself by accident.... I still smoke it but just not alone, I usually sprinkle a little on a bowl because it's hard to take little dabs and the carts were way too expensive. I figured I'll just buy the G of dabs and take small dabs but it wasn't working so I said fk it and took a bigger one.... Turns out I wasn't heating it evenly, I was just heating the bottom of the banger, and when I was taking a 3rd hit it melted the stuff on the walls of the banger and it all went up in one hit and I almost passed the fk out. 😂😂
@@sierrafosnaugh1136 - Yeah I was obviously high when I wrote it because I just re-read it and realized my mistake, I couldn't spend that much on a bong because my luck sucks and I'd probably break it the first time I used it.... You're lucky to be in California because it's almost impossible to get anything in PA and if you do, you have to be scared about Fentanyl. People are putting it in literally everything from delta-8 carts to delta-8 bud and they try to pass it off as real weed, and I've even heard about people actually sprinkling it on weed and not telling people, so I stopped buying off the street a few years back and I got my MMJ card and now I can't find mushrooms.... That's the one thing I feel like I really need in my life right now, especially a shroom chocolate bar because I know it would be portioned properly. 😁
As someone who likes a psychedelic trip and use them for meditation, therapy, and of course fun but not as often. I've tried Salvia a few times when I was younger. Those where not the best trips. My experience was not like others. I was frozen solid not able to move and when coming out of the trip. I felt like I was traveling through different dimensions and every time I entered a new dimension. I was smashing through a wall like the Kool-Aid Man. I've tried Salvia multiple times and every time the same trip and feeling of not being able to move and the traveling through dimensions has always happened. Other people that I was with who tried Salvia had great and fun trips. Some of those people thought they were a cat and acted like a cat during there trip.
You received the message intended for you, you just havent translated the meaning of it yet.
It will all make sense to you, if you accept the shadow work.
I’ve done salvia twice - first time I was stuck inside a glowing orange tube of either chicken wire or fishing net, and the tube had its own gravity that made me turn round in circles.
Second time, the world became a funfair that was built inside a carpet shop. I got trapped inside a rolled up bunch of carpet that was rolling down a hill and made me spin round in circles.
Powerfully dissociative and highly psychoactive/visual.
Weird but fun.
Thats a trip that twice it was all about tubes, a net tube and a carpet tube. That must mean something to you.
The time distortion effect was fascinating. It made 2 minutes feel like a couple weeks.
Salvia is a trip. I haven't tried it again since college, but one my vision seemed to turned into a bunch of gears. I couldn't move my point of sight or turn to look around unless I followed the certain pattern my brain saw. Another time, the walls had a bunch of zippers that opened with hands reaching out. The room quickly shrank in towards me until I was in a sac with all those hands smothering me. It was crazy...
Yoooooo!!! The gears! It is the first time I see someone else described it as such beside me.
One of the times I did salvia, that's exactly what I saw.
The wall had become a fow of gears that were offset, one set going one direction while the other was going in the opposite one.
@@CptVein i smoked it in my car and was parked next to a couch with a pattern of zig zag stripes. The zigs all started moving right and the zags all started moving left and the peaks and the troughs of the zig zags were the only path i could move my body or sight with. Kinda similar
@@notallowedtobehonest2539 Ha! Sounds like salvia alright.
@@CptVein dude, we should design a t-shirt with "yoooooo!!! the gears!" and a bada$$ graphic. Like faces being mushed into gears.
@@discgolfcasaus Love the idea
I don't even know how to begin to describe my Salvia trip. The walls all around me and the floor below collapsed. Then I saw piano keys that went on forever but somehow those piano keys were also my entire neighborhood and my neighborhood was collapsing in on itself while also endlessly spreading and spinning..like a treadmill but the very fabrics of matter were what was collapsing and shrinking and expanding? I felt like I was being compressed and stretched and like I was stuck in an insane hell loop.
And through this horror, my bf who was my trip babysitter says I was laughing hysterically and it freaked him out.
Salvia amplifies the ability to detect the specific affects of gravity that one overcomes throughout infancy.
wut
my brother in christ that is called balance
oh god,he’s so young. we were all so you g
When I smoked Salvia i flipped out of myself upside down and was then in a grocery store where everything was made of noodles. The people, the products, the shopping carts. Everything. It was like those old Chex-Mix commercials but way more intricate and on another level Like avant garde noodle art.
Love this plant! If you start with the lowest dosage and are in a safe space/with a friend or two, then it can be an absolutely beautiful experience x0x
I have salvia plants at home and didn’t know it was a psychedelic until this video. So is it the flower or the leaf that you take? Do you ingest it or smoke it, and what is a safe dose for your 1st time please😇
@@Aangel452 leaf smoke eat or tea
never trip alone, use the buddy system!
Salvia was..... terrifying. It was the shortest yet most intense place I've ever been. It doesn't even give you a chance to take it all in. You blast off and you're back. Usually not even on the couch you started on.
I have smoked this once. It was an awesome experience. I would probably use it one or two more times ever again. It was not bad - but not recreational like that either - it opens up the mind to a whole new level of experience. It is great as a once a lifetime experience. One could lose their grip on the reality if they use this like everyday or often - like one would use cannabis.
Yeah this stuff is seriously legit. I've done every drug except heroin and meth, and just one good inhale made my perspective seemingly "pull back" as if I was observing myself in a still life painting. It's some potent stuff for real. My friend hit it, and after staring off into space for 5 minutes, he suddenly leapt off the couch exclaiming "I'm not a part of them!" apparently referring to the couch and the lamp beside him. XD great times.
I’ve tripped a total of 4 times on salvia - every time on the highest potency they sold. Trips were crazy and I enjoyed it. Though I have witnessed people on a bad trip.
I’ve learned never lay down if you’re going to trip because it can give you the sense of helplessness, and TV’s can be bad as well.
But every trip I’ve personally had was pretty wild lol
It was never meant to be smoked. You're supposed to chew it up while holding the juices in your mouth for a few minutes, spitting them out, repeating.
But people had to smoke it, on camera, and got it banned because they fell down the staircase.
The salvia trip happened literally the exact second I blew out the smoke. I hallucinated that someone just took their sneaker out my mouth because that is exactly how the salvia tasted - really horrible and unpalatable stuff. Then I experienced geometry on a whole different plane of existence. I imagined the walls running parallel to the origin point of existence. I slid my body across the walls feeling as if everything beyond existed in a different dimension.. and just like that it was over and I didn't even believe what just happened. I thought, for a second, that the salvia didn't do anything at all until I realized it did. I never tried it again.. it was somewhat unpleasant without any euphoria whatsoever
Yes it's pretty horrible the smell and taste..
Yeah thats real.
ket and DMT take you to the same space, with different shades of glasses
I was thrown into a black void with an oversized 2-liter red coke cap spinning in the distance. I felt like if I could squeeze myself between the void and the knurled edge of the coke cap I could get back to reality. And so I forced myself between the black and the cap and came to on the floor, on all fours, with all my friends staring at me with horrified expressions on their faces. It took me a few hours to remember how my day had started.
I thought the title said “Saliva” and was VERY confused when he started saying it could make you sick and feel like you were on fire.
Saliva is probably a great name for this plant because thats the only thing you do when you smoke it...
