An awake nightmare!

Level:	5
Type/Strength:	30x
Dosage:	1 hit
Method of Ingestion:	glass bowl

I recently secured a gram of 30x Salvia Divinorum through an online vendor, and having read numerous online accounts of this bizzare legal psychedelic, and for the most part assumed the stories were greatly exagerated, or told by people with limited tripping experience, I wanted to try the strongest I could find.

Wow, was I wrong, Salvia Divinorum is a mind-freak of the HIGHEST order, and should NEVER be taken without extensive research and precaution.

The absolute minimum level of safety has to include a sitter and a soft, if not padded room!

I will attempt to summarize my experience as briefly as I can, but the sure gravity of that experience CANNOT be understated.

Well, having read the online warnings and anecdotes, I was very careful, so I thought, to be in a safe environment, i.e. my couch, with a sober and attentive babysitter at my side.

I packed a glass bowl with maybe 1/4 gram, took about the biggest hit I could without choking, and sat back on the couch, holding it in as long as I could before slowly letting it out.

Within 20-30 seconds the effects became OVERWHELMING, the last thing I said out loud to my sitter was "oh, I can see it..." or something to that effect.

Basically, from one hit, and within half a minute I was FULL blown PEAKING on the most intense trip imaginable.

Unexplainable, indescribable, mind-altering psycho-f---!

My mind/ego no longer existed in 2 of the 4 dimensions, there was no time and no left or right. By no left or right I mean the concept of left as being different from right, or vice-versa was impossible, I felt like I was in 2 dimensions and thinned out to one atom thick. Time did not seem to move forward or back, or exist as a dimension at all. I now existed on a one sided plane without any awarness of being in a body whatsoever, except a slight feeling or being paralyzed physically, though I dont think I actually was.

I became fused within the inanimate world and was no longer a physical entity, only a 2 dimensional consciousness with no body.

I could not see my body and no longer knew where I was.

Most importantly to note is this, I was absolutely TERRIFIED, and later realized that I had never been truly scared until that moment. I was being washed away into oblivion one atom at a time and was crying out to my sitter for help, "Please, save me, no save yourself, get away, it will get you too".

When I began to come back, my left side felt unbearable hot, and my right side freezing cold. I was pale, shaking, and covered from head to toe in a thick sheen of cold sweat.

Strangely, it lasted ONLY about 4 minutes (240 seconds), and nothing seemed that unusual to my sitter, I just looked really confused and pale, but none of what I thought I was saying was actually out loud, I could not speak or move...total psychological paralysis coupled with absolute fear and loathing in Colorado!

If you ever experiment with this legal sage, be advised, it does not compare in any way shape or form with anything I have ever taken, and I have taken nearly all of them!.

Salvia Divinorum makes LSD seem like beer, and that is not an exaggeration.

In a nutshell, it induced a fully awake nightmare of the most terrifying nature, yet somehow I want more.

Although I did swear NEVER to take Sally again after I came to, one wonders what doors it could open...

The feeling of being terrified was short-lived for me.

But I intend to try it again, to learn about life, and to see some crazy visuals.

dont be afraid..

experiment with different doses etc. even venture out into public and walk around and interact with people..

I like to venture on my own but if you think a sitter would help go for it.

dont drive !!!! LOL

I love your description of being terrified.. I was laughing so hard.. sorry but it happens to most of all I have read about..

and the reliable "sweat" as I call it is like a wonderful purging.. refreshing..

enjoy your next adventure

PS.. Try a big hit totally in the darkness of your room or house and have a ball as you layback.. ;)

Though not horribly terrifying, my first trip was overwhelmingly bothersome because of the maniacal laughing, which I later realized was my own. I wasn't sure if I'd ever trip again. Curiosity got the better of me though. Lying back in your own bed and taking a strong dose, or even piggybacking smaller doses, with the lights out is something of beauty. If you are the least bit uncomfortable you will often not enjoy it, so being in your own room is my suggestion--without a sitter if you feel so inclined. Often, having someone there can make you feel as though you must perform in a way which will meet their standards and can lead to a bad experience.

Forgot to mention; great report. I hope you are able to find the courage to try again.

Even I uttered the fateful words "I'm never touching that sh-- again". 30 minutes later I was thinking "Hmm this is something else, I need to go again sometime", this desire has become more prominant since my first experience, I think we're meant to see this.

Good Grief, very good description. And yes, like you, I had taken psychodelics many times many years ago. But... Salvia...umm...'nuff said.

Did you really do 1/4 gram of salvia in one sitting? If so, that's a huge amount. You only need 1/10 of gram/heavy pinch of salvia, which is the recommended dose. So you got a whopper dose if you took that much.

Also - and very important to be stated - the first trip can sometimes be very scary. From here on out you'll know what salvia is like, and it will be less scary, and even fun. I like to say it's like a roller coaster. If someone put you on a roller coaster in the dark, and you've never experienced a roller coaster before, you'd be absolutely terrified. But now that you've had your first experience, you know what it's like, and you can ride it, maybe be a little taken off guard, but enjoy the ride!

My awesome trip was experienced by myself in my room, and a sitter (my ex, still roommate for now, but still trustworthy) downstairs. She could come to my aid if things went insane, but wasn't impacting the trip. She sucks at being reassuring though. My first trip, I was all "Oh no, I think I had too much!" and she was all "I told you to take one, you had five! You should've listened." Thanks, I am so much calmer now! Why not throw in a "Well, you'll probably die now." in for good measure!

Absolute perfect description of my first trip. Couldn't be more spot on, except, I had a lower dosage, and a lower extract, yet surprisingly I yielded powerful results (but for all of only 30 to 40 seconds). I felt flat, absent from my body, and the pattern from my buddy's car seat surrounded everything. I felt like I was part of it, no longer in a body. I knew where I was, and what I had done, but I couldn't focus on it, I was more focused on how confusing my world had become and how convincing it was. But for a good 20 seconds, this flat world made me forget I was a person. Bravo man, great depiction.

Seriously this shit is no joke, i did it for my first time with a sitter and a friend. My friend did it first and had a close eyed trip. Then it was my turn, i took a huge hit and for some reason did not go unconscious. I was aware the entire time. About 3 seconds after i exhaled my hit the drug hit me. Time stopped and my vision split in half, on the left it seemed to remain normal but on the right side of the split i felt attached to the earth and was infinitely layered to better explain this picture those paper cut outs that people make of figures, and after u cut em its like 30 of them attached together in like an accordion style. Thats what it was like on the right side but ti was me attached to the earth. This trip was seriosuly intense i was in a completely different dimesnion on the right side. About 3 minutes later as my trip slowly started comming down the reality that was split starting slowly comming back together. About 6 minutes after the trip had ended. This was absolutely nuts.

Well I was doing it first time with x35 under the toilet sink without a sitter , and I lives . It's fine I guess if you have done other psychedelics , I did black mamba before , and I started hearing voices of myself and feeling how other perceives me as a person . This time around , with salvia x35 , probably both on silmilar level , in terms of level of scariness . But in terms of deepness , salvia x35 by far . It reveals shits , deeper shits .
If you wanna hear my trip , which may not be better then this post , the post is time becomes pages literally .

You hit it right on the the nail. Like i died and there was no way i was ever coming coming back. Ripped right out of reality only to gaze upon it like a picture on the wall. I wanted back in. After leaping out of my chair, my friends kept me seated until I was given back control of how I would go on. Then I realized, I was ok. I thought I'd never do it again, but I was curious. Wish I had someone to share this with. But, though I don't, I enjoy a good bowl late at night. Mixed with green budz it real makes it fun. The second time I did it alone and had to bring myself back after not knowing what happened for a moment. But I did it after a moment and realized I could continues in small doses. I like how coherent I feel, though at first I was waiting for something to snap. Anyway, I hope you overcome your fears in finding new exPeriences with this incredible sage plant.
