Recently I broke my drug virginity and decided to try smoking Salvia. Admittedly I wasn’t quite prepared for just how weird I would feel, but I gave it a shot anyway.

Fifteen seconds in I was distracted by the pulsing feeling growing inside my body which started in my thighs and moved to the rest of my body. Then a strange thing happened: seemed to start to slide out of my own body and I was able to observe it from a distance. This is weird stuff.

The high induced by smoking Salvia lasted, by my calculation, around two minutes, with the after effects – including talking absolute rubbish – took five minutes altogether. At the end of the experience I felt exactly as I did when I started smoking Salvia. No headache, no sickness, no hangover, nothing at all.

The highs experienced by users of LSD and magic mushrooms are, apparently, on a comparable level but they allegedly last so much longer. It is only this, in my opinion, that keeps Salvia in the ‘legal in most States’ category.

Did I get an important mental insight while I was tripping from smoking Salvia? No, to be honest. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t an incredibly intense – and very interesting – experience.
