DMT and Salvia
« on: April 24, 2006, 11:09:00 PM »
I don't know about the rest of you, but psychedelic drugs are the shit. Not until a couple months ago did I decide to step it past good ol' shrooms and acid, when I was offered my first hit of salvia divinorum. I've never been so scared in my life...that plant was just too much.

Some buddies of mine mentioned DMT, saying they really wanted to try it, but I haven't met a single person who's done it, most haven't even heard of it. Is there anyone who's tried both salvia and dmt and could compare the experience? If DMT is as killer a trip as it's supposed to be, I'd love to try it, but I don't want another salvia-like episode of dramatic time change where I live out what felt like months as a plank in the wall.

I haven't met anyone that had a good salvia experience. I personally became a stick figure drawing on a page in a book, and the book was trying to close on me forever, and on the pages were all these crazy, fucked up murals of people getting killed and shit, it was just really fucking scary. We all tried it once together and vowed to never touch that terrifying shit again. Salvia trips are so intense that I'd imagine if you have a good one it would be an incredible experience. But I didn't realize I was me when I was on it, didn't know where the fuck I was, and when I came out of it I thought I was still in it, which was even scarier. I'm not willing to go through that again on the outside chance I'll get a good one.

DMT trips aren't supposed to come with all that bullshit fear. Supposedly it's a very enlightening and placid experience as opposed to the extreme visuals and horrific time distortion of salvia. Months as a plank in the wall may seem like a gross exaggeration to some of you, but my little book closing episode felt as if it took place over the span of an hour or so, when in reality (according to my sitters) I was only gone for a matter of seconds before I snapped out and started shouting things like "what the fuck! something's fucking wrong!" and "this isn't real! i'm still tripping! please let me come back down!"

Bottom line is, for all of you interested in salvia, go ahead and satisfy your curiosity, it's a hell of an experience, but just be ready for it, and don't expect to want to try it again. [ This Message was edited by: puma046 on 2006-04-27 20:05 ]

I've tried both, and while DMT is amazing, I have had far more profoundly intropective experiences with salvia.  I think there's a salvia users guide on Let It Bleed or Open Free For All, I'll try to find it and post a link.

I've read countless guides explaining salvia use, how to prepare your mind for it and such, and still I just can't handle that drug. I too really enjoy psychedelics, haven't tried DMT but would like to, but will never touch salvia again.

Erowid (can't remember the website, just google it) has a very good salvia guide.

The first time I tried it, my friends just put it in a bong and said "just hold it in for a long time, and then go where your mind takes you". It hit me hard...I got taken out of my body and became a grandfather clock and was forced to sit there and watch my body melting into itself before I finally snapped out of it.

I vowed the second time I tried it, I'd be better prepared. I made sure I had a good sitter, set a nice bonfire in our backyard, kicked back, and loaded up the bong. I can't even explain where that one took me, it was all way too much to integrate, I remember flashes of some colorful entity and overwhelming fear, and when I snapped out I was on my knees on the pavement with a massive gash on my forehead.

The third time I decided I would have my sitters talk to me the entire time to keep me in limbo between the two dimensions; reality and the sheperdess' reality. That didn't help either...I managed to start feeling the body effects (my body literally felt like it was a brick wall being pulled apart brick by brick) and a severe alteration in my perception of reality suddenly made my friends disappear as I melted into the carpet.

Never again.

I don\'t look at myself in the mirror because I\'m a narcissist, I simply like to watch myself exist...

Well D-7, you can't say you didn't try!
