You know roughly where your body is at all times, but where in it is your “self”?
Your center of mass is around the solar plexus, yet that doesn’t seem to universally be where people feel the center of their self to be. Most people feel they “are” right behind their eyes, probably in the brain.
Sometimes people have out-of-body experiences, completely changing their anchor for a while.
When pointing at themselves, people tend to point a thumb at their chest or face. Do they feel differently about it, or is it just convenience?
Are you a body with a head full of thinking goop and sensors on top, or are you a head sitting on a body?
And wherever you feel you are, have you felt different at any time? Can you change it?
Personally, I can’t separate the feeling of self from my vision, so “I” am directly behind my eyeballs and I can’t change it.
Thanks for the insight, I’ll keep in mind for next time. I suppose your grams are fresh, not dry. 5 grams dry is supposed to take you to Jupiter, but then again we’re all different.
I’m also wanting to break down some of the mental barriers I’ve built over the years, for similar reasons, and also don’t fear a bad trip- though I’m not as experienced so finding a low risk moment to trip is the challenge more than anything.
I’ve noticed my regular self (this part of me typing right now) also remains contained and I can tell things aren’t real, but actually commanding myself like I do while clear is very hard. It’s the rest of me taking over, and I’m glad she’s smart enough, but I don’t think AutoCAD would be something I could do. I’ve tried reading a book and the lines kept jumping up and down, the amount of mental effort it took me to make sense of a string of words was exhausting. I wouldn’t bother with a computer in that state.
As for other tolerances- I’ve only had weed as edibles once, and it must have been a very mild dose ( I was told it was a moderate one) because I hardly noticed anything. I would never smoke it. Then it’s alcohol, which I hate how it makes me feel (mentally) so I avoid it a lot, I’m too sensitive to it. I got synaesthesia so that technically makes me neurodivergent, my reality has always had a flair before I ever tried any substances.
