Alyzarin

I'm sorry that these dreams irritated you. May be you didn't get enough of the stuff? It would madden me as well.

That could definitely be the problem.

At least you're a generous soul, Aly. To give other people stuff and money...

Yeah, a lot of good it does me. I probably would've given the more too if the dream lasted longer.

You have a lot of drug dreams lately.
Now I remembered one dream of you giving me a small dragon and a cactus. How precognitive!

Haha, yes, yes, I hope you're still holding on to those. They're going to come in handy one of these days.

And yeah, I have been having a lot of drug dreams.... I think it's because I've been thinking a lot about neuropharmacology again. Currently I'm focusing on how cannabinoid receptors (specifically CB2, I think) increases levels of dynorphins which can result in salvia-like hallucinations in high doses, as well as antiglutamatergic dissociative hallucinations. I have to wonder if these effects are reached by THC though, I know they are by full agonists like several JWH family chemicals but THC might have a ceiling effect as a partial agonist, though it does have dysphoric effects in high doses as a result of this so I imagine it might be possible to reach it.... Plus weed contains some ß-caryophyllene which I believe is a CB2 full agonist, so perhaps that could account for stronger effects of this sort in certain strains....

salvia-like hallucinations

Do you mean the usual Salvia divinorum? If yes, how to use it?

Yes, that's the one. You mean how to use salvia? Or how to use weed that way?

Salvia is usually smoked, if you have an extract. You can smoke the plain leaves too, but it's much harder to get a full effect from them, especially for newcomers. It's generally a good idea to have a bong or some other water pipe and a torch lighter, because you have to burn it at a really high temperature. You take big hits and hold it in for as long as you can.

Then prepare to lose your mind.

I'll try to smoke it. Bong and torch lighter? It sounds complicated already. But I have a nargile that I haven't used so far. It's hard finding opium here, but may be I may put some other stuff into it.

Oh yeah? I haven't tried it in one of those, but I imagine it could work. Don't make it too cold though, because it needs to heat up a lot, I still recommend getting the torch lighter. Keep in mind that the effect may not be very strong with plain leaves, though it has reverse tolerance so the more you try it the stronger it gets. (It's wacky!) If you try a few times and it doesn't work let me know, there are other ways you can use it but smoking is the easiest and uses the least.

Also keep in mind though.... It's not necessarily fun. In fact, more often than not, it's quite frightening. It's not a drug to do to have fun and get messed up with, it's something really for exploring reality. It also only lasts like around 5 minutes max usually though, at least the trip. The body buzz can last up to like half an hour for me. However, depending on how hard you're tripping, it can seem to last an eternity. Usually when I smoke it I get caught in sort of a web of tiny people holding hands that make cascading wave motions in the direction I move in, but every time I move a feeling of gravity pulls me back and an unseen entity tells me to wait my turn. I also completely forget my entire life leading up to that point and am convinced that what's happening right at that moment is the only thing that's ever happened. Though sometimes I stay in reality but just end up super delirious, one time I was far out on it enough to be tripping but still in my room, but I was so disoriented that I couldn't tell if the fact that my parents were alternatingly storming into my room and screaming gibberish at me then vanishing over and over again was actually happening or not.

Hm, may be I shouldn't be alone if I decide to try salvia.

Yeah, it's something you should probably have a trip sitter for, at least until you get used to it. It's not like just taking a psychedelic where you can have one or two doses and be pretty sure you'll be fine, it's kind of an all-or-nothing drug.
