I'm still experiencing afterglow so I apologize if this experience isn't as descriptive as it can be. Where to begin?... Let me start by letting everyone know that I purchased the extract with a buddy at a local headshop. The extract itself was produced by Salvia Zone. We got home, and I readied the trusty old water bong. I purchased some screens so that the extract wouldn't suck through. (didn't expect it to be so powdery) I packed about 1/4 of a gram sat down and got ready for the mindfuck that lay ahead. I hit it first and took in a huge amount of smoke. For some reason, since I'm a weed toking regular the smoke didn't taste bad at all. Let me tell you, I held it in for the 30 seconds that is recommended and before even exhaling, I already felt the effects. The room seemed to engulf me. I felt as if for the first time in my life I could actually feel "alive". It's really weird/hard to describe. It's almost like we live our everyday lives existing but not really appreciating the fact that we are here. I knew I was alive and could almost feel my body energy as well as the energy of the world around me. I had the TV on and for some reason it was tuned to some infomercial about 70's music cd's. I totally felt as if everything was directed towards me personally. It seemed like the commercial lasted forever. At one point, The woman who was marketing the cd's got mad at me for not buying them. The people on the TV kept telling me everything was ok and would soon be over. What was weird was the voices of reassurance I kept hearing. I also noticed an immense amount of yellow and red lights around me. I tried to turn the TV off but I couldn't find the button nor could I control my legs in a "sober" way. Walking around the room was a chore all in itself. At some points I could speak coherently but, for the most part talking to my buddy was a real chore as my speech became slurred and difficult to control. Before we started we were eating potato chips and at one point the room looked as if it was full of unopened potato chip bags. After about 5-10 mins I came down and my buddy took over. His trip is harder to describe as he started laughing uncontrollably after he exhaled but other than that he claimed nothing really happened or maybe he coudn't put it into words. I know at one point he got up, looked around and again started laughing uncontrollably. Once we both came down I packed the rest and pretty much killed it myself. At this point when I exhaled, the house seemed to be "caving in" so much to the point that I had to go outside. It seemed to take forever to walk up the stairs, through the kitchen and out the door. While outside, lights from oncoming cars were definatley much brighter than normal. I felt as if the ground was mushy but this time I was able to control myself better. Putting together meaningful sentences was once again a chore. The second time around wasn't as "awakening" as the first but still very enjoyable. The only thing that was weird was both times I totally forgot what I was on. I had to ask my friend and didn't even realize the bong was right in front of me. Would I do it again?...HELL YES! I wanted to have a "spiritual awakening" and see what else is out there and whatnot. Some of these trips I've read of people traveling to other dimensions are incredible. Although this did not occer for me, I'm going to try a higher concentration. I wonder if the fact that I used a water bong played a role in not achieving a greater high. Some people claimed that it's better to use it with water, while others agreed that it should stay dry. Next time I'll try it dry.
