I am sitting alone in one of the bedrooms of a friend's apartment. There are white walls. It is rather clean for a bachelor's apartment. A computer desk is behind me. I load the most potent 'Blue' 120mg/g salvia extract into a bowl. It was just a pinch, less than 20mg of extract in a glass bowl. I am staring at the wall and my friend's bed. I lean back in a computer chair and take at least 1 hit, I don't remember taking a second or third hit, but I may have. It is during the middle of the day. The sun is shining in through the window with white blinds, making the room kinda bright, but no artificial lights are on. No music is playing. Nothing decorates the walls. The window is to my left, and the door and a hall are to my right. The door was left open.

After taking the hit. The image in front of me froze still. I froze still in the image that I saw. Not quite an out-of-body experience, but my body was frozen still. In the corner of my eye to the right I 'saw' a realtor showing this 'image' that I was frozen in to a newly-wed couple. I couldn't move my head, but I was visualizing them in my peripheral vision. The realtor was a well-dressed dark-haired woman. The cute, young couple very quickly decided that they were satisfied, and the realtor started to roll-up the 'image' with me trapped in it. Panic ensued, and I tried to escape. I wasn't to be sold with this 'image.' I had to get out. I got out of my seat and went down the hall.

I found myself down the hall with my jacket off. I still had one hand in my jacket. The bowl and lighter was keeping me from getting the jacket off from around one of my wrists. I was 'trapped' in the jacket, like a kid with his hand stuck in a cookie jar because he wouldn't let go of the cookie. I actually was walking down the hallway spiraling. At the end of the hallway, I heard voices coming from a stairwell. It took me a few seconds to realize where I was, what had happened, and that I did, indeed, know the people down the stairs. That I had smoked some salvia, had a psychedelic experience, and at one point completely freaked. It's strange and kinda scary, when a hallucinogen takes total control and you forget that you even took a drug. Shows me what I am really made of, shakes me to the core.

I'm glad I didn't hurt myself. It was stupid of me to not have a sitter. But, I learned so much about myself from that experience. I experienced terror, true terror.
