14. Salvia is rather different than DMT
Thu Nov 7, 2013, 02:45 PM
Nov 2013

Essentially, Salvia is a dissociative with a heavily dysphoric streak to it. DMT is a psychedelic renowned for it's ability to produce life changing personal introspection.

They are very similar in terms of trip length and intensity, but their mechanism of action and practical effects couldn't be more different.
