My very, very strong salvia experiences were only somewhat as intense as my LSD experiences, but only within certain aspects. Salvia had a tendency to feel more like a lucid dream with more color, vividness and it was a LOT more random and spontaneous then anything else I've ever done. It wouldn't be uncommon to watch yourself turn into a bag of potatoes.
LSD was a lot more intense in its own sense. Because, I was still remained intact with my body, and mind a lot more. The colors were moving and shifting as my eyes were open, but with salvia I didn't know if my eyes were open. Salvia had just happened, it was there, and then it disappeared, but with LSD I was in the experience so long that I had free will to do whatever I wanted with it. It was a lot more enjoyable because the longevity of such a positive, beautiful experience.
As opposed to a salvia experience that was just like, woah.... that was fucked up.
So glad to see you have overcome them.
Completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
