Now @ one point in time I began to develop a condition while regularly vaporizing spice in one of those "glass humidifiers" -straight to the dome The first time it happened I sensed the energy rising in a subtle under the radar sort of way, and at the peak of this little doosey I looked over at a plant cutting I had been rooting. The plant was the same shape but its veins became disfigured or reorganized. There was sort of that vibe to things in general but it was mostly the plant, then I looked at my hand and in the mirror and noticed to my dismay that I had gotten noticeably larger. WTF, I thought. This bloating didnt go away until the spice dissipated. I thought about the pollution of hydrocarbons in the world, toxic things like drain cleaner, but in the end maybe I was just having a reaction to this spice. It could have been that my lungs had enough - and in the times since I have heard of the lungs causing strange things like this to occur, but I still cannot place my finger on it. I did some reading into occult speculations, and the idea of the etheric body intrigued me. It also happens to be related to the aura and sigil magic dynamics on the astral plane. We can plant sigils in our etheric aura by raising our energy state such as during an orgasm. An orgasm doesnt come close to the pleasure of the spice am I right? A girl I know, who I happened to fuck all night and still it was not as pleasant as the spice, also said she experienced this bloat on several occasions as I had. She noticed it in her toe AFTER her boyfriend pointed that out.

I was starting to not want to vaporize the spice because this bloat happened every time for 2 or 3 times - the third time I took it easy, and left the room so a friend would see me bloat. Just as I realized I should have a friend watch me during an experience, the strange thing happened. Another time when I had eaten 8 blue grams I was in a really meditative place at a planetarium to the point that there was a telepathy/telempathy happening, thats a side story. I went into the bathroom and as I washed my hands the water led me to feel like I could dissolve my hands as I washed. Then I swirled the hand on my head and felt I could dissolve if I wanted to and bloat at will. I decided not to, and had no fear of spice after this, with no reoccurring bloat. But then that girl experienced that too after I had read about things confirming a rather speculative occult sort of perspective. At this point I seem to favor that perspective over a medical description, but that's a real thing too with its own scientific merit.

Any one wanna come forward with a similar experience or perspective?

So for the record, you think that certain parts of your body are physically swelling when you smoke spice and not just that your body perceptually appears to be getting bigger?

not fully, there was a time when what I believed was that I was physically bloated, but now I lean more toward that it was a shift in perspective and that we actually do have another layer to our body that we do not see. It would be interesting to see if the Kirilian photography works with the hand on the silver plate even without touching it - from about an inch or less away. Like I said that happened to me personally 3 times with spice and briefly one time when I was hangin out with fun guys at the planetarium. Without a doubt I still grasp for what the physical effect would look like if it were a negative reaction and I thing it would be a type of anemia, where the body is flushed with plasma or something. I'm no doctor.

Perhaps you'd like to record yourself so you can see if you can perceive the bloating when you watch the video back. Not saying you should post it here or anything. Simply for your own experimentation. If it can still be perceived on video playback, that would be interesting.

My spice rack is empty accept the turmeric, yeast, garlic and ume plum vinigar I put in my eggs... Anyway I have not experienced this since that moment in time, and I believe this may have been related to the base in the lungs effect if it was a physical side effect. At that time I had vaporized spice around 50 times, and since then another 200 or more. It certainly was not associated with a peak experience, and it was right around the time I was realizing the importance of recrystalization, since base can go into the solvent. some of those times during that period there were no effects, other times peak life experiences - so its difficult to say what was going on.
