For some reason I can't post in Salvia Divinorum forum nor can I post in suggestions to ask why so I'll post here. I have posted my first DMT trips here too.

Yesterday I bought a very nice glass bong and a gram of salvia 20X and all the accessories. I put water in the bong, stone in the bowl, screen on top, first I tried with weed/salvia/weed. That didn't work so well so I tried a bowl of salvia, around half the gram (too much I guess). I hit the bong good once held it 30 seconds and I was kind of tripping. I leaned back in my chair and just tried to tune into it because the feeling wasn't very strong. I then felt like I could very accurately feel my place on the earth as it turned on its axis through space, and it was scary because I thought I was about to detach. It wasn't exactly like that though, it was much more personal, very personal. In another forum I described it like this:
Yes I was sort of like it felt selected for some sort of test that had to do with every aspect of me and my body, which everyone would know of. I was part of a huge rotating wheel of fortune where every aspect of reality was spinning, and I was of course part of this, but then physically, I could feel the nearest most objects like me besides me crammed into this layer on the sides of this ferris wheel, and when the wheel was going to stop the thing at the cutoff point (or needle) was going to fly out of it and then something was going to happen. But it was clear all along that it was me. This was a very physical process also, it felt like my body was scanned in the meantime. And then it felt like the world shifting under me or something, and a folding sort of effect, folding onto my body. But there weren't any visuals at all, that's a shame. It wasn't really very intense either.... I think it might have been way more intense if I had had someone with me to remind me to take another hit or two.

When I woke up everything was fine until I looked to my left where I saw no bong in my hand, I had dropped it and the floor was a mess I guess I'll have to buy another one.

Sounds like you got very mild effects from what would ordinarily be a massive overdose. Half a gram of legitimate 20X salvia contains 25mg or more of Salvinorin A. A fairly strong breakthrough dose for most people is less than 1mg. Thankfully for you, either your extract is not as strong as advertised or your technique isn’t very good (did you hold the smoke in for at least 20 seconds?) or you didn’t inhale very much.

Please use salvia responsibly. A strong breakthrough dose of 20X is about 20mg or less.

The folding sensation is very common and often signals the beginning of transition to the other side. During a typical breakthrough involving “folding”, you’ll fold out of this world and unfold into a new realm. Some don’t like the physical sensations – folding, stretching, flattening, etc. but I always find them fascinating.

Be careful!

If smoking alone.. i never alow my pipe to fall on the floor..
Im usually standing and quickly set the burning bong down in stainless steel sink to prevent a fire!
Think ahead!..be safe!
