Salvia seems wildly...boring. Especially the physical effects. Change my mind?

  Not sure how much you took and in what way. For me it was a complete loss of self memory (ego death) and a very bizzare experience which unlike most other psychedelics was also tactile and not that pleasant. And after few min you are back to being fully sober.

    Salvia was generally the most extreme hallucinations I've ever had in the most displeasing possible way. I don't recommend it to anyone.

  Salvia can be one of the strongest "psychedelics" (it's not really a classic psychedelic even), and can completely replace reality with something else. Often a bizarre 2D experience where someone "becomes" the floor, or the siding of a house, or whatever. Or transported to some alternative reality completely unlike our own. It can also be extremely dysphoric and terrifying. I personally wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I have heard that chewing it produces a less dysphoric experience than smoking it though, and is how it was used in traditional ceremonies.

    it's so weird that my experience of melting into the floor is nothing unusual, as i've now read a few times. it was terrifying by the way, and felt 100% real. crazy, crazy stuff.

  The last time I smoked Salvia was the most intense, spiritual out-of-body experience I've ever had. While it was profound, it was also truly terrifying and did not feel good for me at all. I think salvia is very misunderstood and underestimated by most people. You give up all control when you take a serious dose, you're just along for the ride. Mushrooms feel wonderfully natural and therapeutic on the other hand.
