Awareness of Salvia--another drug or "“psychotomimetic” promoted by a singer, songwriter- this time Miley Cyrus[if sources are correct]. Fans may want to emulate.

Some facts on Salvia:

NIDA InfoFacts: Salvia

Salvia (Salvia divinorum) is an herb common to southern Mexico and Central and South America. The main active ingredient in Salvia,is a potent activator of kappa opioid receptors in the brain.These receptors differ from those activated by the more commonly known opioids, such as heroin and morphine... ingested by chewing fresh leaves or by drinking their extracted juices.. can be smoked as a joint, consumed in water pipes [popular], or vaporized and inhaled. Although Salvia currently is not a drug regulated by the Controlled Substances Act, several States and countries have passed legislation to regulate its use. The Drug Enforcement Agency has listed Salvia as a drug of concern and is considering classifying it as a Schedule I drug, like LSD or marijuana.

People who abuse salvia generally experience hallucinations or “psychotomimetic” episodes (a transient experience that mimics a psychosis). Subjective effects have been described as intense but short-lived, appearing in less than 1 minute and lasting less than 30 minutes. They include psychedelic-like changes in visual perception, mood and body sensations, emotional swings, feelings of detachment, and importantly, a highly modified perception of external reality and the self, leading to a decreased ability to interact with one's surroundings. This last effect has prompted concern about the dangers of driving under the influence of salvinorin.

In 2009, NIDA’s Monitoring the Future Survey of 8th, 10th, and 12th graders asked about salvia abuse for the first time—5.7 percent of high school seniors reported past year use (greater than the percent reporting ecstasy use).

Thanks to YouTube [and 5 minute use timeframe], many young people from ages 16 - 25 have jumped in the bandwagon to get high with salvia and post the video on YouTube. Just like the old YouTube trend, 2Girls1Cup, many older teens have started to become highly interested in this legal drug. Marijuana, [CLAIMED]a harmless drug, is illegal while Salvia is sold online or just about any other smoke shop.

Cost: $4.18/g.Salvia extract.

Salvia will not show up on any drugs test unless it is specifically requested--use within 72 hours. Juvie Probation question on Yahoo

17 states have passed laws regulating salvia divinorum, most of them with outright bans on its possession and distribution. Now, two more states, Maryland and Minnesota, are poised to join them, the former with legislation limiting its possession to adults and the latter with an outright ban.

They’re shutting down head shops in the Tampa Bay area that sell “K2,” which I believe is salvia or a derivative. It’s been selling like crazy, and people get high on it quite often.

Having been a pot smoker in the past, I think I would prefer to stick with the illegal stuff. Who finds these drugs anyway? Do hippies go into the forests of Costa Rica with a bong and just pick, pack, and fire it up to see if it gets them high?

Those advocating consideration of Salvia divinorum's potential for beneficial use in a modern context argue that more could be learned from Mazatec culture, where Salvia is not really associated with notions of drug taking at all and it is rather considered as a spiritual sacrament. In light of this it is argued that Salvia divinorum could be better understood more positively as an entheogen rather than pejoratively as a hallucinogen.[32] Other entheogenic plants with continuing traditions principally of spiritual use include peyote (and other psychoactive cacti), iboga, virola, ayahuasca (an admixture of plants containing DMT + MAOI), and various types of psychoactive fungi.[33] In fact, US legislation as it stands specifically allows two of these to be used in a spiritual context.The Native American Church is allowed to use peyote and Uniao do Vegetal (or UDV) is permitted ayahuasca. Although not consistently granted (varying from state to state), the principal grounds for such concessions are constitutional, with further grounds following from the Regious Freedom Restoration Act.

State summary-- This table summarizes the status of various state proposals for Salvia legislation, with links to following detail state by state.

The videos alone should scare a parent! Long term effects are not yet known.

The headline caught my Phonics trained eye and made me think they were somehow smoking drool.

Who gives a burp in a windstorm about celebrities who take up destructive lifestyles?

They have the world handed to them on a silver platter and end up abusing their gifts and good fortune.

Let them all OD and end up in padded rooms.

The military has banned its use as well, and a number of the cities we represent are drafting ordinances to control it. Not sure what I think.

Now there's some advice that only an 'experienced' mentor could offer, especially to those impressionable teens!

Sounds like a variant of LSD. Same kind of effects. I know several people who drugged out on LSD back in the day, and they still have not fully recovered. Their lives were wrecked.

That was not the point of the posting of this story. It was just an awareness post/videos about Salvia, which some parents may not be aware of.

I don't really care personally that Miley allegedly partook of Salvia; but she is someone's daughter [not just a celebrity] that I am sure after the media story, would care..AND all parents today can remain "sleepless" worrying about their kids.

Miley Cyrus has been banned from our house (and young daughters lives) since she first showed up. My wife instinctually knew she was bad news from the start, thank goodness.

My (information) sources tell me K2 is a synthetic cannabanoid... i.e., pot-like.
