I've heard of salvia (a potent kappa receptor agonist) having both depressant and antidepressant properties.
Usually people report experiencing a mood depressing (or anxiety provoking effect) while smoking, but that the pleasuarable effect usually happens after this wears off.
I am thinking that the potent short acting kappa agonism of salvia may desensize the receptor in some way.
