Feeling like something stuck in throat during experience, water doesn't move it.

[dazultra]

Have had good sessions with the emesh, and after trying to go again, the problem is that I've noticed on the second round, I sometimes get this feeling like something is stuck in my throat. I need to drink water, which is difficult when you can hardly see reality; nothing seems to clear it at the time. It's very uncomfortable and ruins the experience. Sometimes, I feel like gagging to clear it, but it won't shift.
I wanted to know if anyone had any ideas what this could be and how to avoid it. Should I wait longer in between? I hear of people going deeper and deeper on subsequent goes. I like this idea, but this feeling often seems to stop me. Is it some strange purge? It clears after, but happens often.
Thanks

One school of thought would question the source and quality of your material.

Another school of thought might ask if there's something you need to tell someone or someones that you aren't letting yourself say and what you're experiencing is a blockage.

There's other schools of thought too, those are just the first that come to mind.

It may be your throat is getting irritated by the smoke and under the influence it feels weird.

It’s suspected to be a physical hallucination known as the throat marble.

The marble in the throat feeling

Hello fellow explorers, While on spice, I have experienced a couple times a very unpleasant feeling as if there was a marble or other small round object sliding down my throat into a cavity beneath it. It pulled me out of the experience and prompted me to verify I hadn't accidentally swallowed...

Interestingly, I get this throat marble thing every time I get just a tiny bit too high on weed, which is what has almost completely killed my desire to consume THC anymore. I can't get rid of it, and it's really uncomfortable.

I’ve experienced this effect myself, especially during a period when I was smoking a lot of DMT. Later I realized that, at least in my case, it was the saliva and small air bubbles in my mouth that I perceived as forming a kind of ball.

At one point, while still somewhat aware during a DMT trip, I noticed this effect happening and realized I could even make the “ball” move around in my throat. Interestingly, I also noticed that it never caused any real breathing problems, I could still breathe normally.

It’s a fascinating effect. For a while, it happened quite often, but nowadays I almost never experience it anymore.

It looks clean enough, as I have re-crystallised it once, but I was thinking, should I wash the fuel through water next time I extract.

That's interesting, there are things I would like to say and haven't, maybe that's what's up. It usually happens on a moderate dose.

A throat marble, yeah, that sounds right. It's common then! Interesting.

I have had this happen a few times a while ago, I also use an emesh and put the dimitri on the mesh. I thought to start with it was unmelted dimitri but I always melted it first prior to blast off.
After a few times of this happening I had it again and this time instead of panicking I let go and breathed before I shot off to hyperspace realm and it went. I just have to remember if it happens again what to do, it's pretty intense blasting off, come up super quick.
In the above explanation about the throat marble makes so much sense it felt like a really sorry object at the top of my throat area moving around.

My experience with this is varied and I've learned to be curious about it and work with it.

Aside from what's been said in this thread and the marble in the throat thread, for me, it can be q number of things.

In somatic theory sometimes we experience psychological phenomena physically. This idea is reinforced by a lot of other ideas and works, such as the body keeps the score. This is different from a hallucination.

For me, when smoalking spice or changa, this sensation can occur and sometimes working with it, "breathing into it" bringing awareness to it, can make it intensify, and then pop. It's a space of communication and I don't always feel comfortable expressing myself.

Other times I engage this sensation and engage psychic contact with entities (the first time they had me do some jaw "exercises" which moved the feeling and then glossalalia came out).

I share all this because while there're some very valid explanations, the experience of this marble seems to be as weird as some of the substances that elicit it.

One love
