So, I just got some Salvia Divinorum from (URL deleted) and it was completely awesome! This was my first time ever and it was a lot more than I ever imagined it could be! I ordered the mid grade leaf (I like natural things in a pure state) b/c the Hawaiin stuff was totally sold out. I got an o for like $15 and packed about 5 leaves into my pipe and hit it like one might hit a normal piece made for pot or something, but this is actually a long-stem Irish pipe with the main stem pulled off temporarily. I hear that smoking a short stem is best, but apparently I didn't pull hard enough or something, b/c the first trial was nothing really more than mild closed-eye visuals and a short disoriented kind of feeling that left me feeling really really stoned for about 45 minutes or so. The only other drugs in my system were Allegra D and 20 mg of Adderal that I take for ADD. I don't think either one of these drugs really had any influence over my experience though b/c I have been on both for quite a while now. This first time was cool, but nothing compared to what was to come.... The second trial occured about 5 hours later and I packed the same amount using my newly aquired torch lighter. I finally decided to quit being a pussy and just hit that pipe like I was gasping for air. I held it in for about 30- 45 secs and then exhaled and after one toke, i knew i was in for one helluva trip. I took about 5 hits, and then I came in walking like Johnny Depp in Fear and Loathing. I finally made it back to my bed and crawled into my little hobit hole I made under my bed so that I could have some privacy from my evil bitch of a roomate, who I will call Dave. Dave was watching The Postman and talking on IM to some chick he told me he broke up with two years ago, but apparently he stalks her and it freaks her out. He's kinda crazy, but a nice guy at the same time... I'll give him that much. Anyways, he was trying to tell me what was going on in the movie as I was hiding in my private hole- I made it just so he would leave me alone! Wait... private hole... heh... we'll just let that go for now... Anyways, Dave was really starting to irritate me, which is a known side-effect, so instead of being a mega-bitch, I just got up and removed myself from the situation and went outside... This is after SEVERAL trances and visuals of cool stuff! I'm a very earthy person though, so I think that the effects, which were mostly really natural, earthy experiences, were definitely something that were good for me, but I can see how they could frighten others who are not of that type of personality... In conclusion, I had an awesome time, but to those who might want to do try it for the first time and have no idea what it involves... READ READ READ up on it at Erowid and Sage Wisdom and don't expect anything other than what you see... Don't think too hard on anything you might experience, and be free to go with the flow... It helps a lot! Don't try this if you have something hindering your mind or your day. Overall... you just can't trust what other people say the experience was like and expect it to happen for you... It will occur to you as it needs to occur to you. This drug is used by people who use it to understand themselves and they're spiritual journey... There's magic in this herb, but you need to recognize it and release yourself to it. The spirits will show you the way on your own man, and the Shepardess will guide you to enlightenment... if you let her. Good luck and stay safe!
you guys are definitely saying the same thing i've been thinking... I'm more of a natural guy, so I can't say I hate the leaf... I think it is pretty awesome in and of itself, but I do wonder about these extracts I keep hearing about... I think i'll try that soon.... real soon.... Thanks for the input tho!
Believe me man ... I was at stage 3 after only a few hits off of it, and I was hitting it ALL wrong (trying to take "small" hits as if I were smoking some cannibus). And hey, for doing it ALL wrong, I certainly got pretty salvi-ized from it. =P
"Wait... private hole... heh... " lol!..."corn-holio!"...nyeehehehe....huh huh huh !!! Reads like a cross between Bret Easton Ellis and Beavis and Butthead Do America.
