pretty much every head shop carries it. I tried the enhanced 10x

I dunno about all the "experience reports" from erowid and other sites- but that stuff is for real- never in my life would I have thought something readily available and easy to produce could be so overwhelming.

Funny timing. Last night I stopped by some friends' after work for a beer. They were both all glassy-eyed and smiley. When I asked they said they'd heard so much about salvia that they picked some up at a head shop and tried it out. They were pretty impressed.

Well first read the experiences @ Erowid:

I read for awhile and decided to try it. Grabbed the 10x for 29.00 @ a local headshop.

Loaded a bowl and hit it. Immed the room kind of got brighter, yet fuzzier and I felt a slight warming of my mind. Another friend was w/me and wanted some so I loaded huge hit for him. He took it all and held it in- immediatly he started laughing more than I can describe- it then made me start laughing my balls off and he was mumbling something about seeing lines all over the room and how they "had him".

I got excited seeing that he was tripping, so I loaded a similar sized hit and took it.

This time when I exhaled everything began to look different. my depth perception changed slightly, and I was sitting @ a glass table and although I knew I was sitting @ a glass table- I really couldn't see it. I could feel it.

I then began to feel a very strong pulling to the left- it's physical- not just mental, you can litterally feel something pulling you to the left. Some people freak out by this apparently and @ higher does you feel yourself being spun (not just pulled) counterclockwise. Well- the pulling is kind of weird, because as I said- you can feel it pretty hardcore. Then what I felt can only be described as a powerful squeegee running from the top of my head to the bottom of my body. Again, this is a very physical feeling and not mental. About this time everything kind of looked like a cardboard cut out, and one of the other guys there started giving me a math quiz that actually frustrated and angered me. I felt like he was messing with my head, but actually he just asked how much I paid for the stuff and why I didn't buy the 20x. lol

Well after a few more minutes of saying how weird and powerful the stuff is- we went outside. My body actually didn't feel too pleasnt and I just felt like I needed to sit down. I got bored of my surrondings after a minute and went and layed on the grass outside. As I was laying there I closed my eyes and didn't see anything @ all. When I opened my eyes all of a sudden I saw a spaceship launch and was going straight up into space. In actuality what it was- was a plane flying over. However since my depth perception was screwed, and I was laying on my back- The craft appeared to be going North to South instead of left to right. The contrail was completely vertical.

I then felt strange for about an hour later- but not tripping hard. My body still felt weird however and a mosquite stung me on my neck and I felt needles all over my body. That wasn't too pleasnt either. I had to take a handful of painkillers to feel normal, but I'm hooked on painkillers anyway.

-end trip-

There are some videos on youtube with document salvia experiences- I think most of them are either fake or over dramatic. I think in large doses that this stuff has the potential to really put you somewhere you don't want to be, although I never went there. It is by far the most powerful herb I have ever done in my life and am really amazed that it's so readily available.

I took it with the hopes that I would have a hard trip, and confront my issues of being a drug addict and squash the need for drugs. However, I didn't have the spiritual/self awareness that allot of people claim to have- perhaps they are already borderline schizophrenic before taking it. Who knows..

I'll do it again, or dose unsuspecting cholo's when they come hang out.

Done it before... Most memorable time I hit the bowl, exhaled, did my best to stay standing up but was forced to sit on the bed as I began to pass out somewhat. I then laid back for a few seconds, and when i sat back up I could not see much of any reality around me. I was seeing what in my mind was an amusement park. I for some reason thought I was in line for something there? I also saw dots every where. One notable thing was how warm I became. I was sweating very bad during the trip and for a brief time coming out of it. This all lasted around 5 minutes or more, and it wasnt worth trying again I didnt think. I used to enjoy mind altering things but the whole pass out thing wasnt cool. Seeing weird things was alright minus the sweat and black period. I wouldnt pay money for it but if you are bored and someone has some.. WTH.. :silly:

Why not just not do any kind of drug?
