Answer 4

Salvia is currently legal, although, there is a move to change that.  Real Salvia, often called Salvia Divinorum, is a very powerful hallucinogen.  I have close friends that have done it with varying results.  All of them were effected, some were quite negative.  Contrary to popular belief there have been no confirmed deaths related to its use; however, it is not a "party" drug and has been known to cause strong, often frightening reactions.

Answer 5

personally i never tried it, but my friends have.  One of them said when he smoked it that he felt like he was trapped in a box and couldn't get out.  He was in a car tho.  It's nothing to serious health wise.  If you want a good experience try shrooms.

Answer 6

Actually there are a lot of people dying from it. So I wouldn't risk it.

Answer 8

It's called Salvia or Salvia divinorum.  You can buy it in most smoking shops.

I've never really found it to have much effect when sober but if you're already a little bit gone it can have quite a happy trippy effect.

I believe it's related to sage but it's a different plant (don't smoke sage).

Answer 9
