very different, tho the scarey part is similar. both can freak you out if you take too much and then fight the effects.
salvia seems to give you less control of your situation whereas with low doses of acid, you can usually control yourself. i guess it just depends on the person, though.
Yeah it's totally different. You could have one person who loves acid and hates salvia or vice versa. Salvia is like becoming a wall/having a door shut in your face for 5 minutes, very very weird and powerful. Acid is like becoming infinitely more sensitive to the entire universe... an 8 hour out of body experience.
I forgot to mention that with salvia you go from baseline to becoming a conveyor belt with no conception of what you once were for five minutes and then back to baseline within five more. The quick come-up can be very scary, but it's also over before you know it. On the other hand, it can be really tough to face your fears and all the negative stuff in your life for 10 hours. It depends on what's scary for you, completely losing control (salvia) or being stuck in a nightmare for 8 hours. Salvia's too short of a trip to really drive anyone insane or anything.
If salvia freaks you out, I suggest you take the minimum dose of acid the first time. The universe and your current relationship to it won't change just because you happen to be on a different psychoactive drug.
I hate low dose cid trips, it really gets under my skin, I need to take a decent amount of any psychoactive other wise i am so unconfortable being half sober half gone.
Ya that should be enough, don't worry acid gives you way more control. With 1 hit you will experience only a slight change in mind, the biggest change for me is that I see things from 1 hit of acid. Salvia is nuts, I have a plant and I've been screwing around with the drug, and man like sometimes it's so nice, smoke some leaf, relax, other times you smoke extract and you are gone, for 5 mins you are completely gone, (you need like 4-5 hits to make acid anything similar to salvia) Basically salvia is instant ego death, LSD users try to avoid that, you should be fine with 1 hit.
Never had 'ego death' with salvia. It feels almost dissociative to me, more 'one with nothing' than 'one with everything.' I would however, say to start with 2 hits of cid. I would consider that the minimum worthwhile dose.
Have you ever eaten shrooms or mescaline before? If not, 1 hit will be fantastic. If you are experienced with shrooms/mesc (say, 4+ trips total), two might better suit you. I know that my first time I took 1, and it was more magical than any of the other trips with much higher doses, just because of the newness of it. Gradually, you can increase your dose as your psyche becomes familiar with the changes, allowing you to really go out there without a terrible chance of it going wrong.
You've never had ego death on salvia? Have you ever broken through? Because I turned into a pot on a shelf, and an item in a dollar store once, and thats definitely ego death. Ego death is just when you don't know who what where you are anymore, and don't even remember.
Yeah it's really a different kind of ego death... depends on your definition of it. Salvia is really really confusing and it's easy to totally forget where you are or who you are, but I don't think it's quite the same as truly "realizing you are no one" like one would likely do on shrooms or lsd.
Ego death is the loss of the sense of self - so it doesn't matter if you forget who you are because what you've eaten or smoked is so confusing or if it connects you so much with everything that you no longer sense your "self." You can't really "realize that you are no one" because the word "realizing" requires that there is "one" to do the "realizing." I've never tried salvia, but I have heard that most people who try it don't like it, so I would imagine that acid would go over better for you, especially since you're going from ultimate confusion (based on what I've seen, people tend to freak out quite a bit) to ultimate sense. 1 may or may not be enough, depends on how strong it is.
ive taken high doses of LSD and mushrooms and had wonderful times but the 1st time I 'broke though' on salvia was the scariest experience in my life. salvia is FUCKED UP. dont let it hold u back from drugs that are actually worth doing.
