    Salvia is something people try. I have not met anyone who has used it long term, one anecdote on a job site about classmates doing it on the regular, but I think it was an exaggeration.

    Saliva hallucinations are intense, short lived and the ones I had were quite unpleasant.

      The experience reports i read about it are all bad to neutral. It doesn’t belong on the list of good drugs

        It did absolutely nothing for me. a couple friends sampled the same stash and claimed it was wild, but I didn’t even get a mild buzz.

          You didn’t smoke enough or it was a bad batch. Once I felt just like you, tried again later, and the world turned inside out for 5 minutes.

          It’s a plant, so there is some variability. Sometimes it’s harder, sometimes it’s milder. Similar with mushrooms.

      “ones”? That would seem to imply you did it more than once.

      My cousin gave me a gallon bag of the stuff once… it was all he had left and he just wanted to be done with it. I packed a bowl in my bong and had a huge hit. It last about 10 minutes and I saw some pretty fun stuff (stuffed animals getting up and dancing), but the overall experience was not fun. I handed the rest of the gallon bag off to a friend. That was over 20 years ago and I’m pretty sure that same bag is probably still being passed around.

        Twice. I am a fan of confirming things. There is a good chance but hopefully someone decided it was better as compost.
