I've knocked a fair bit of coke back
through hanging around with some dealers a few years ago. My review of coke in general: meh. I'd never pay for it. It seems so pointless and turns most people into aggressive twats. £20 can go in ten minutes. I know people who blow half their wages every weekend on the stuff. Why?

So, so glad I never got a taste for it.
(, Mon 7 Dec 2009, 13:03, Reply)
I'd say
it turns aggressive twats into worse ones, cf. alcohol.

The idea that an otherwise totally sound person has been made into a total cunt by ANY substance is, from experience, utter bollocks. Boring cunts who like the sound of their own voices become worse etc.

It makes me quite quiet.

I've completely given up on ever being romantic.
It's just a pointless fruitless endevor for me. If I buy gifts that they want(ed), i'm trying to buy their love. If I cook lobster and fois gras, she's just not feelin' peckish right now or I'm calling her fat. If I put on her favorite film, she just can't concentrate and goes to the PC. If I make a mix tape for her car, she just replaced her tape player with a CD Player.

I'm great at coming up with ideas, just the execution is never right, so fuck it.

From what I can gather
you must have been smoking just plain leaf. You are actually meant to roll the leaves up and chew them, like a cud for about 30 mins, apparantly results in a much longer lasting high than smoking the extract. I generally smoke the 20x extract, you buy it by the gramme and that should blast you off into hyperspace probably about 15-20 times.

When done properly the dissolution of your ego is immediate, and concepts such as furniture, room etc cease to be relevant. This is what causes the fear in most first time users, as you usually immediately forget you have smoked anything, and are left gasping at the shift in reality.

A wacky way to end the night, and no mistake!

I would recommend the Salvia experience
to anyone who has previous drug experience, particularly psychedelics, but definitely have a sitter with you, someone to remind you that you have just smoked it and to just go with the flow as opposed to trying to fight it.

The dangerous thing is, because it is legal a lot of people have access to it, and many folk believe because it is legal, then it's gonna be a walk in the park. WRONG. Of all the stuff I have tried, Salvia is in a league of its own in terms of potency and effect. As i say, to think you can be totally normal and straight, smoke a bong full and then immediately forget you have smoked it, is pretty full on.

It will be banned, sooner or later, i have no doubt.

Salvia
is still on the "todo" list. I have tried 2c-i, 2c-e and sid and they were ok except sid which was a fucked up experiance due to it being my first psych experiance, I had taken coke, k, nos, more k, alot more nos, speed, base, and I dropt 2 double tabs...

bodybuilding suppliments. It comes in 20mg tablets and I usually take about 4. I come up about 20 mins later and the effect is rather nice and clean.

It also has a "side effect" that it helps other drugs get your system easier. My friend accidentally took some k whilst on 2 tablets of EPH and was gone for ages 2-3 hours longer than normal. I used 5 tablets and took a huge line of k, it lasted fucking hours, still tripping hard after 4 hours!, and was one of the most intense things I have experienced.
