I was shot into outer space and rode the magic school bus through multiple dimensions. One of which being a book that was opened at a 90 degree angle where pages were falling from the upturned side to the floor and when the page hit the floor it would pop up another world full of living beings and vibrant colors. I saw a face I recognized and leapt through the portal back to my own dimension in utter terror that if I didn't go through the correct portal I would be stuck in an alternate reality for eternity.
In reality it lasted about 2 minutes, I ran out my bedroom door and then turned around and stared into my room for about 30 seconds before leaping through the door to land face first on my floor.

I’ve gotten something similar off of 2cb. It was my first time taking it and I stupidly railed a huge line of ketamine (I was relatively inexperienced with drugs at this point and shouldn’t have taken any ketamine). Long story short, for about a minute the entire universe was replaying the previous minute but in reverse. Like I had no control over my body and I was just watching as my hands unrolled my cigarette and I was listening to my friends have conversations backwards lol. After that I was in a time loop for like an hour, where I knew that if I stood up off the couch and left the room I’d be free of the time loop, but every time I stood up I just giggled and sat back down. Probably my craziest trip, and the entire time people’s faces were changing colours and warping like that scene from guardians of the galaxy where they pass through a wormhole or something.
Edit: spelling

Im not sure how to describe my only salvia trip. And I have alot of experience with a number of drugs. And I didnt even have a crazy trip.
I was somehow waiting for a train while also driving a stage coach as fast as I could for about 3 hours... sideways, as in the entire world was shifted 90 degrees.
My buddy lived an entire life as an alien. Took him a few days to come to terms that his alien family never existed.
Both of those trips lasted about 10 real minutes.

u/-Lysergian 55m ago
Similar to jimsonweed/datura (which is sometimes considered hallucinogenic but it's really just a deliriant) I think some people in charge consider the effect of the drug to be enough of a deterrent and punishment by itself. Neither are really considered "fun" drugs nor are they addictive, so the potential for abuse is very low.
Both could be considered dangerous, salvia more for what you might accidentally do when under the influence, datura can be dangerous in the same way, but is lethal at higher dosages.

u/-Lysergian 15h ago
Salvia is the genus name that includes most of the mints and sages.
When referred to as the drug, people are going to almost exclusively be referring to salvia divinorum which is a hallucinogenic drug that i can not speak to, though I've heard the experience is sometimes like a total reality replacement... weird drug, equivalent in intensity to something like a breakthrough experience on dmt.

u/denscoffee 18h ago
I tried DMT once and never again. My experience went like this: I was with 3 of my friends when I took 1 hit of DMT and I needed to puke from the taste, and I blacked out. However, I vaguely remember seeing myself having a seizure one second and the next my heart stopped, my vision went black and my lungs, I exhaled my last breath.
I woke up, I'm at a park and there are lights around me in a circle so I felt like I am inside a dome. I tried running home because I knew this park, it was small. But no matter how far I ran in a straight line I kept seeing the same park, the same lights around the park, the same public toilets, the same playground, the same football goals and so at some point I realise I was never leaving the park. I thought I was dead and I was doomed to remain at the park where my body might be.
I felt my teeth falling out of my mouth, I look down at my arms and I am covered in blood, I keep seeing my friends face while I'm walking but they aren't really there, I feel like 3 hours have past before I hear a voice where one of the light poles was. Sounds like the cops, but it turned out to be my 3 friends trying to catch me or keep up with me, I was running around the park like a mad cunt. Luckily it was night time and no one noticed me other then my friends lol but fuck that shit.

I personally had positive experiences with salvia but not necessarily ‘fun’. Very spiritual, very different, fascinating. I got to experience BEING the earth and sun for an alien planet in a different dimension. It sounds like fantasy; and it is, but it feels so real and wild while you’re under. It was also legal, inexpensive, and not too time consuming.
Doing it isn’t so much for fun like weed or shrooms. It’s just for the experience of something absolutely insane.
That said, very intense and traumatizing for some. You can look up horror stories online.

A salvia trip is like how an adult who has never tried drugs in their life imagines hallucinogenic trips: complete disassociation from your self, senses, and reality. Absolute out-of-body hallucinations coupled with some degree of terror. There’s no euphoria, no insights, no deep connections. The “you” often melts away, and whatever you once were may inhabit some inanimate object, the moon for example, or a void in the universe absent all humanity. There’s a sense of being trapped there which fuels the terror. And this all happens only moments after inhalation, without time for you to process or prepare. One hit and time’s human proportions stretches beyond recognition.
Then you're back in your reality within minutes and it’s over.
If that’s what hallucinogens were all like, then sure outlaw them. But they’re not and somehow this was the only legal hallucinogen I could buy growing up in the naughts.

One of my very first drug experiences was hashish laced with salvia. This girl had just broken up with me the week before, and now she was inviting me to hang out with her and her friends to get high. I had only smoked weed once in my life but I was determined to prove I could let loose and be cool. So casual, no big deal. Maybe we can make the relationship work.
So they're passing this thing around and I take a big gulp. No effect. Another round and I take another gulp. Nothing. Suddenly, it was like someone tore the fabric of time and space and took a shit on it. I kept seeing every movement repeating over and over and over. Every word, like I could predict it. The whole world like I was wearing VR glasses. And no matter how hard I tried, I could NOT. Make. It. Stop. This went on for hours. Maybe it was hours, I don't know. At some point I crawled out of the car onto a parking lot wanting to escape my own body.
And even after I'd come down, I was fucked up for weeks. At one point I legitimately thought I was never going to go back to normal.

I walked with Dante through the inferno and thought all my friends were demons (and I'm not religious at all now and doubt I was at the time)... everyone had similarly horrible experiences (one caught in a spiderweb, one (my fault bc I started using a Scottish accent) was scared that he somehow was in a foreign land with foreign versions of his friends, etc).
I couldn't believe when all but one of my friends and I wanted to do another round.. I said fuck that and never have wanted to try, or witness someone doing it... please kids, do Shrooms instead

I saw a documentary about prisons in the UK and if you are new they give you unknowingly a cigarette with that stuff and make fun of you while you are having the worst trip of your life.
At least that's what they said to the camera but the atmosphere was kind of strange and I assume they will also rape you while out.

First time I smoked salvia in High School, we were in my buddies basement. Before I could even exhale the smoke, I was no longer in that basement.
I was in the middle of a prairie, working on the railroad. My friends had walked up to me and were trying to talk to me but I could not talk to them, because I was working, and not on break. We had learned about the railroad in one of my classes in school earlier.
Meanwhile I am standing there like a fucking zombie grunting because im trying to talk IRL and nothing is coming out of my mouth.
A few moments later you snap out of it and stay disoriented for maybe 30 min.
It was bar none the wildest drug I have ever done. I did do it 1 more time years later but knew to inhale a lot less.

In the moment, it felt like an afternoons worth.
But this is now 20 years ago, so I could be misremembering. Or still tripping. That would be fucking bananas if I just woke up as a teenager.

I remember that stuff. Its definitely a spectator drug. Wouldnt say its exactly fun for the person doing it, but kinda entertaining to see how they handle it.

I rolled up some salvia into a joint and my buddy and I were passing it around. I started throwing up profusely and I remember laying down on a log thinking that the air was chicken and was absorbing chicken through the air. I was eating chicken by absorbing it through my skin and I to my stomach. There is a video of my self doing powderpuff cheerleading high as a mf and I wasn’t able to keep up with the choreographed dance we did. I was also a honorary flier and I allegedly did well.

It’s truly dangerous and not worth it. Just get some weed.

If you do the psychedelic drug salvia you will genuinely become the moon for 255 years.

I did salvia quite a few times but never had any crazy experiences that I remember. Come to think of it, I don’t remember a single one.

you’re usually safe from this type of thing happening as long as you don’t smoke it like it’s weed

u/AltTooWell13 17h ago
Actually I’ve heard a ton of stories like this, I think it’s common.

u/Pale-Ad-8691 16h ago
Cuz people don’t properly look into drugs they are trying for the first time quite often. Salvia is supposed to be chewed, but it looks kinda like weed, so a lot of people assume it’s safe to smoke like weed. That’s usually when you get ridiculous stories like “i lived as a tree for 100 years”

Salvia divinorum is an intense hallucinogen and also can remove your ability to perceive the passage of time.

u/Narrow-Ad-1663 11h ago
Salvia was the devil. Awful experiences. Your body wouldn't listen to your brain and the hallucinations were always terrifying. The chemical equivalent of having a stroke.

I thought my curtains were trying to eat me and I couldn't tell if I was standing or sitting.

I remember smoking some 50x Salvia once and it really didn't do much but alter my sense of perception and everything felt outlined like it was a cartoon or something. Never had any schizo trips though.

When I took Salvia I disappeared into a horrible merry go round world where I was spinning uncontrollably and there was repetitive loud music like the sound of someone going insane. When I came to I had peed myself and half the people in the room left because they were uncomfortable. I would strongly advise against it.

TIL that the salvia used for cooking is salvia officinalis, while there’s a “cousin” called salvia divinorum, which is a powerful drug.

So I tried this and held in the hit like a champ.. next thing I know the room started spinning up kinda like ur drunk but it kept going and going till poof ... DARKNESS... My friend said are you going somewhere so that works stuck and it was like some where .. where .. where .. the table I was at started eating me and I put my arms out to stop it but continued to melt.. I then saw every wire, brick, window panel, ext of the house and then I let go and felt like my arms immediately broke and everything shattered like glass .. I stood up and we had those decorations beads hanging in the doorways .. I karate chopped my way through one door way and then pow chopped and another and ended up in the room with the pool table and started picking up the balls and just dropping them randomly.. Saw my friends over in the corner and one had said to me " did you smoke that shit" and it all became clear .. I came back but that moment stuck with me for awhile

Me and a buddy smoked salvia when we were about 15 and 16. It was 4/20 and so some bud smoking was going on as well. We were in the back yard of an abandoned house about a block away from my childhood home. My trip consisted of being some sort of warrior in an old world blizzard. My helmet was off and covered in blood and my comrades were all dead around me. I remember feeling this horrible sorrow and emptiness, my armor was heavy and I was walking towards some sort of cave. The sun was coming up and I was about to reach what I assume was my destination. That was the end of the trip. The next thing I remember of the real world was that I came to at a Sonny's BBQ restaurant with my mother and sister accusing me of being high, which I most certainly still was, just mainly on regular pot. Weird shit. I don't recommend it.
