I don't know what your experience is, but Salvia is not something to casually fuck around with. You should know what you're getting into first.
I tried it one time, and it was one of the weaker extracts. They come in potencies from 5x to 60x, and I tried the 5x. It was quite powerful, and as I was smoking it I suddenly felt as if I was going to fall on my face. The good news is that it only lasts for about 30-45 minutes as compared to shrooms and LSD which last for about 8 hours.
Don't let Salvia's legal status fool you. It is very powerful.
That's probably why it's recommended to have a sitter to keep an eye on things. As for it being powerful stuff, that's just what I'm looking for. No casual fucking around for me.

Have you ever consumed any hallucinogens before?

No, no. Kinder hallucinogens are not casual fucking around. In fact, basically by saying you want to do hallucinogens, you jumped right over casual. They twist your mind. Most of the time, it is a totally awesome thing. However, he is right. You really do not want to be jumping right into something that strong having never experienced a hallucinogen. I'm not joking when I say I have seen people seriously flip out. Eat a cap or two of some wacky shrooms and get used to the feeling first.

Not intentionally. Mainly vivid side-effects of prescription drugs. I do take your and Shell's advice on board, however.

Actually, I've never been high in the sense that I've taken drugs in order to reach it. But on the other hand, my migraine medicine comes with a funny side effect. Once I finally get rid of the pain after taking the tablet, my body responds with a massive release of endorphins and I feel like the happiest person in the world for half an hour. It's quite neat, really 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

As Shell said, hallucinogens are a mindfuck, and you are about to try the most powerful one. It's a bit like never having driven a car before, yet you want your first driving experience to be in a Lamborghini. If you are intent on doing it, I would advise you to exercise extreme caution.

The best part about Salvia is that you come down after a few minutes. I used to smoke a bowl of 6x while I was getting ready for work; it made dressing interesting and cleared my head... sort of.
My favorite high would be mushrooms. The downside is that they take a bit to come on and you can't use them for a couple weeks because your tolerance shoots through the roof when you take them. Honestly though you wouldn't want to take mushrooms more than once a month anyways.

Hmm. Well, as I say, it's not something I'm just going to jump into blindly; though I know that, as with so many things, all the research in the world won't prepare for the reality of the experience. I'm glad this subject came up, actually, since it gave me a chance to learn from someone who's used the stuff as well as other who've used similar substances.

I voted for the third option even though I have gotten drunk in the past and have smoked tobacco.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
