welcome n00b bloke,
If you had been reading the threads here recently you would have seen that salvia is all anyone talks about. I, personally think it's for queers ( just kidding fellas ).
Your biggest mistake was taking "5 medium sized tokes". That's just not how you smoke it. You have to take giant, monstrous hits so that you can't take any more smoke into your lungs and then when they're filled, you take some more. Like when you're trying to kill a bowl in one hit because the next guy in the rotation is always staring at your girl's tits and you don't want him to get any. Once you have all that disgusting, queer smoke in you, you gotsta hold it there until you turn blue in the face and are about to fall over from asphixiation. Then, finally you can let it out but only to immediately take another hit.
It's like smoking queer DMT. Again, kidding. All this talk is making me want to try it again, I've got a ton of tha shit. Maybe tonight if I can even find it.
