I'm sure eventually there will be enough study and I'm willing to bet that there would be a lot of similarities between the two.

if salvia wasn't short, i think it may have had some lasting consequences on my psyche. but...it is...and honestly i think salvia is my favorite psychedelic. i have a different experience every time i take it. i read somewhere that you brain could take 2 paths with it...either your mind is ready and it accepts what is about to happen and you end up going on a crazy trip or your mind freaks and goes into instinct mode. the latter is what happens on those youtube videos where the person flips and they have to hold him/her down until it is over.

there has been a lot of research done on dmt...and one scientist in particular has a theory about how it allows you to see parallel worlds. a lot of people who trip on it claim to see floating orbs of energy with perceived intelligence, weird lizard creatures, little tiny dwarves, or any number of "intelligent life" hallucinations. considering the evolutionary paths life could take in the world, all these visions makes sense (at least to me). who knows.

same here. every time. i miss my weed so much. i havent smoked in over 6 months. alcohol sucks.

Another tip is this, hydration. Keep water with you if you're out doing things. If any drug out there makes you reject water from your system, don't ever do that **** again. Water can only improve.

Anyone ever do nutmeg as a drug? A friend of mine did it, and probably still does it, extensively. He's the only person I've heard of to do nutmeg a lot and for a sustained period. It's always fascinated me. I've done it a few times and it's sort of weird, though I never did it by itself.

While hydrating is how you avoid dehydration, there's also a such thing as over-hydration... and it can be deadly.
I forget the word for it... Google it.
But I think that's more an issue when dealing with scenarios where people are on X. Out of everything I've done, ecstasy is probably the only thing I can say holds a potential for over-hydration. People hear so much about the dehydrating effects of their experience that they sometimes overcompensate and it leads to disaster. It's especially true when you can't feel the physical effects that would normally clue someone in.

Water isn't "the answer". Nor can it "only improve".
What improves your situation is having someone there who's sober and knowledgeable and capable of ensuring the safety of everyone else.
