Does salvia cause similar after effects of LSD?

Such as "ego death", a sense of well being, the ability to think about things in new ways, etc. Does salvia do similar things to this?

 

Ya, somewhat. I would describe it as less intense than LSD but its different in a way. But the Ability to think about things in a new way, and weel being fer sher.
Less Ego death than LSD.

 

wtf are you talking about. Salvia is wayy more intense then LSD. I have had complete mind shattering ego loss from both substances and I will say without a doubt salvia is more intense. Also not a lot like LSD at all. Look for it at www.erowid.com

 

Yes, I agree, Salvia Divinorum was a stronger experience to me in every way. LSD is a strong substance, but I've never experienced any phycadelic as intense as Salvia Divinorum. I have ego loss every time I inhale Salvia, and it's an amazing experience, but I'd have to say I come to more relivations from LSD...

 

Salvia is exceptionally powerful. But the effects are dependent on the strength of the salvia and your resistance to it. Some are immune to its effects, but for those who are not immune, smoking 15 or 20x salvia or stronger is ego death bizarro world saturn sand worms. smoking 5x or less would not be.

I have not had the honor to do lsd (cant find it in my area), but I can assure you no one would laugh if salvia climbed into a boxing ring with lsd...

 

Wow to mee LSD was stronger, maybe i dosed differently, cus i had alot of acid and ya, it just seemed that acid was stronger. It was an oopinion, and as for the ego death, thats also speculative, because everyone experiences everything diferently. Someone may have a compeetly diferent effect than you on salvia if you did it together, so i was just giving what i felt, gosh, dont jump down my throat.

 

It should be noted that there are many factors that play into the effects of Salvia, the biggest difference is how you smoke the stuff, things such as amount inhaled and length of time make a huge difference in the effects achieved. One thing very cool about the stuff is you can go from a totally drunk like state to a sobered state quite quickly. Like checking out for a minute or two, don't try walking or running, though sit down. After using the stuff a few times you'll be able to determine how much to use, and can ramp up the dose very easily, if ya aint there hit it again. lol

Inhale and hold the stuff the same every hit, and you can vary the intensity of the trip by the number of hits. Prepare a glass of ice water ahead of time.
And by all means don't hit the stuff when your pissed because of how long in took to get your order.

 

Salvia is more intense than LSD. If/when it works to its potential, that is.
It's "intensity" is rivalled only by DMT which is also a very different psychedelic.

Otherwise, yes, it can have beneficial effects as stated, in addition to making one take questioning reality to a new level.

 

There are similarities, but it is an entirely different experience for most.

To say which is stronger is really difficult. I have done plent of both LSD and Salvia, and have had some crazy experiences with both. In general terms I would say the Salvia was in a sense more intense, but in a different way. With LSD, even at higher doses, I still had awareness of self, I could walk, if someone in the room asked a question, most times I could hear and answer. On LSD, you may see shit thats not there, but you will almost always still see what is there. With Savlia, I have had complete block outs of reality, auditory senses were gone for a brief time and I only heard auditory hallucinations. There have been times I did not see what was there, I only saw the vision and hallucinations I was seeing, and where some things on LSD look like other things and you can be convinced it is something else, on Salvia, there were things in my field of vision I dont recall being there in any shape or form, it was just gone, all I saw was visions in my "mind eye". With Salvia, with strong doses and full effects, especially when smoked, there is usually no control, there is an INTENSE at times sort of body gravity, feeling of being pushed or pulled, trying to stand up and walk can become completely impossible and even dangerous, Ive stood up and then just BAM hit the ground and started rolling along the floor, thats why it is suggested you have a comfortable setting and sit and remain sitting the entire time with salvia.

As far as insight, sense of well being, new ways of thinking, etc.

Both can have these after effects. In my opinion though, LSD tends to be more clear and more insightful afterwards though. Savlia, even when you are in the right setting and mindset can cause complete panic out of nowhere, and a scary intense experience, so the come down and after effects can vary, I have had clear, positive thoughtful after glow type of feelings, and I have also had complete confusion.
