Salvia seemed extremely disorienting, but I never had s bad trip on it. At high doses I basically blacked out into this insane world of amusement park like entities, I remember a roller coaster, a card deck and a smiling face but that’s about it. On the lighter doses I got an insane body high, like I was made out of sharp edges ripping through space, very clunky and mechanical, and I remember feeling like I was in the same place as the high doses, but not really there. I described it as Candyland while on the dose but I don’t really know why. DMT was wayyyy different. The body high was heavy and my mind was far clearer, there was definitely a spiritual feeling to it, although I never broke through, I saw clear, beautiful imagery instead of the sharp confusing nature of salvia. I felt safe in the first dmt trip and saw two beings, although the dose was low so they were unclear, but they reached out into my soul and touched me, I felt a divine warmth and kindness from them. The second trip was frightening, classic sinister Jester, massive grin, the hat, sharp teeth, I tried fighting it only for him to literally DRAW his smile onto me. I’m not sure if this was DMT showing me that I was the jester or if it was just a trick. All in all, they’re different but have similar effects
