Why crying?

[Doc Buxin]

Just last night I had an extremely strong journey into hyperspace.

The beings that I usually experience there were there again & once again were stuffing my mind with more information than I can rationally process.

When it began to fade away, I found myself crying out of sheer gratitude for what they give me every time.

I even spoke aloud, though I was by myself, "thank you guys!! Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!!! Thank you! Thank you!" As the tears of deep gratitude kept running down my cheeks.

It was a fitting way to end that trip.

I've never broken through on spice before, but came close. One time I had a really hard day at work, and a specific scenario played out at work with a coworker that made me feel like complete crap, to put it vaguely. I came home, and decided to smoke some spice, and after taking a couple of hits, I started seeing geometry that seemed to be communicating with me. I was explained that the scenario at work that I experienced that was making me feel so down was actually a joke - and I was taking it seriously. Then I "got" the joke, and I started weeping.

I learned that day that there are jokes beyond the normal ha-ha variety, and when you "get" them, they make you cry instead of laugh.

Other trips that I've had with other drugs have made me realize that everything that happens is a joke. If you're unhappy, you're just not getting the joke. God has a sense of humor, and it's easy for his jokes to go over our heads.

I've cried the last few times I toked Spice and/or Changa. Sad/happy combo. Multiemotional release. Beautifully scary and hsrd tp describe but feels good to cry.

Crying is controlled by the limbic region of your brain - the same part of your brain which holds memories and emotions. This is also where people with deep trauma show the most difference from other people (in the limbic brain and the epigenetics).

The limbic brain controls all of the purges - tears, puking, shitting, sweating, yawning, shivers ect..... I think sometimes these types of purges are the signs of rapid limbic revisioning - basically that region of yur brain healing and restructuring itself so rapidly that it causes a type of purge with it.
