Why does salvia divinorum Give you crazy visions.

Question

Like unexplainable trances you go into that may or might not have a meaning like a story. And when you come out of it you start forgetting the experience.

Answer 1

because its sweet

Answer 2

salvia is a selective kappa opioid receptor agonist...

most drugs that attach themselves to the kappa receptor like salvia and Enadoline cause hallucinations and visual distortions..

salvia is similar to DMT (Dimethyltryptamine) in that once you come out of the "trip" you immediately start to forget what happened because your brain is trying to protect you from that experience...

the same also happens when you dream..

you should really check out joe rogans video on DMT..

he explains it really well
