The first time i did it i was alone, and i did 10x. I was a bit nervous but i have balls so i just did it because i wanted to experience something that i hadn't before, and that's exactly what i got it was the most amazing journey ever and i will never ever forget it. So the point is, if you want to truly experience this, than just go all in and take a fat toke of 10x and you will see the light just remember that you will be fine nobody has died from it.
Salvia can be some intense stuff and your hesitation isn't without merit. Some will say go ahead and do a big toke without a sitter, but for your first time I think that is foolish at best. If you end up breaking through, how are you to be assured that you aren't going to fall and injure yourself somehow? Remember that someone might have the balls to jump off a 50 foot cliff, but that doesn't mean it’s a smart thing to do. At the same time, you're not going to be able to get rid of the nervous feeling, so you're going to have to find a way to gather the courage for your first try. As long as you take some basic and common sense steps to ensure a "safe" experience (i.e. having a sitter, not smoking it on a roof of a building, ect...) you should be fine. While nobody may not have died from it, that doesn't mean you should be reckless with it either. There's always a first and I'm sure it will be someone who threw common sense out the window and didn't give the drug the proper respect it deserves. Find a sitter, get yourself in a safe and relaxing environment and start off slow. Take a small hit and hold it for 5-10 seconds. See how that does for you, then adjust as necessary to achieve your desired results (bigger hit, hold it longer, ect...) Remember that Salvia is a personal experience and will vary from person to person. Some love it and praise it highly, while others will never do it again.
Being that you are nervous. Have a sitter. If you breakthrough, then things can get scary. I've told people to go hard the first time and also tell people to do it alone. However I don't reccomend doing it alone the first time. As far as what you felt from putting it in your mouth. I doubt it was the salvia. Your mind WILL play tricks on you when adrenaline is present which probably was because you were nervous. Dont try a quid (chew) before you get familiar with the smoking effects. I smoke it often, and even I am nervous to try a quid. You gotta have a sitter dawg. It needs to be quiet. And the nervous feeling you have will cause you to have a breakthrough watch! I swear the adrenaline sends you through space way fast! Have fun and be safe. See you on the other side hahahahah! I love saying that with salvia.
u need a sitter. dont underestimate the salviaa. and even if ur like a hardcore weed smoker, it still hits you HARD. i speak from experiencee.
wow, and that was only 10x... can't imagine what something like 40x would do...how would u compare salvia with good quality weed?? (if you've ever done it)compare n contrast the different effects...like i understand that the colors and visions are different...but the sensations you described i've often times gotten from gettin high off weed
I speak from experience as well, and i say you don't need a sitter. All that will happen when your fucked up is you will not understand whats happening. So you might lie down or if worse comes to worse you will fall over.
Almost every time, I had a sitter. I did 6x my first time, and i just didn't know how to speak for a couple of minutes. Previously in the summer, I bought a lot of 15x and some 25x too. I decided I would eat a large ammount of 15x. I held 3 or 4 large pinches in my mouth for as long as I could. After about half an hour, I swallowed it all. This was actually a very intesnse trip, but I wasn't able to do anything stupid because my legs felt too heavy. It did waste a lot of salvia however...
the actual trip i find is not comparable at all, however the after effects i found were similar...after i return from my trips, i just sort of zone out, close my eyes and think of some weird shit...patterns or completly random things that make you go 'what the hell?'...that lasts about 15-20 minutes then im sober again. other than that i dont think theres many more simularities
Oh I can definatley relate! Last time I did salvia, I hardly got any effects because I was at my moms place in the basement, and was very nervous because she was upstairs, and so not only did I resist the trip, but I took too little , because of the nervous. Made me cry.
