intensity
± PLUS/MINUS — Threshold — something may be present, but it's right at the edge of perception. A stronger experience would confirm it; otherwise it may be nothing.
intensity
++ PLUS TWO — Both the timing and the character are unmistakable, but you can still choose to let it stay in the background and carry on with ordinary activities.
Awareness began around twenty minutes, but nausea built to a peak near the first hour and lingered faintly throughout. The visual show was thoroughly enjoyed: trees, book covers, and bright objects shifted color in rolling waves and distorted, and concentrating on anything made it transform more readily. The writer stayed quiet but could follow conversation, felt a mild confusion lasting four or five hours, and fell asleep without trouble that night.
