Please tell me I am doing something wrong

I know, I know another noob question but that is what these boards in essence are all about.


So I tried salvia for the first time this weekend. My friends got so before I could and the said that one friend walked around the room drooling and giggling at himself and my other friend I guess had intense visuals and it took him 8 mins to get to the bed. So the next day my brother and I decide that we have to try this if it is as mind expansive as everyone thinks. My brother and I have done alot of different substances and both find lsd and mushrooms to be the best. Trying to stick with all natural now, salvia sounded right up our alley.
He took a pretty fatty ripper off of 5x and handed it over and said you.
I did the same and wow.
I am not sure if it is a good wow or not. It was nothing like I expected first off. Yeah I got visuals but not it was more depth perception being off than visuals and the body left me in a somewhat less responsive state. I couldn't complete quite full sentences due to a stobing effect which somewould call time loss. which was great and all but it was very short lived and not mind expanding or very strong in comparison to mushies or lsd just from the short amount of time it lasted.
I almost felt as if I was doing good and it was going to go higher and peak and it just pretty much stopped.
I had a great body high for quite a while afterwards and so did my brother. We both took the same amount as the friends that tried it first, and both of us felt it was underated.

not to shoot down a substance on its first try I gave it another go and had the same effects. it lasted maybe 30 seconds longer but overall it was maybe a minute and a half expierience.

Am i not taking enough or is it really not as mind expanding and pyschedelic as everybody is saying. I am more than open to try anything. smoked out of a bong, held it in for about 45 sec. the second time to make damn sure that i was expeirencing time loss and watched a clock to make sure.

I want to keep trying but dont want to make it a futile attempt. does anyone have any good suggestions or thoughts on the topic?

 

Three suggestions which will likely help you get a stronger experience:

(1) Hold the smoke in longer.

(2) Take a bigger hit, or take two in rapid succession.

(3) Use a stronger extract like 10x.

 

or even 27x =P

 

lost cause,
IMO this is not going to be what you are looking for
I think you want more buzz and more zip
this is more of an introspector's pleasure

but at least you know what it is now for yourself
and if you become inclined to be by yourself in that
particular way, you know how to do it.

 

Some salvia oh yeah. I'm not too fond of the leaves though. They make me feel like shit. I do however like me some extract. 27x, hell yeah. I drool a lot though, and lose complete function of my mouth and such. The first time I tried it I drooled all over myself. *ew* But I always lose the will to be able to communicate. It fucks with my mouth. It's great stuff.
