Spirit and Drug Takers and Witty Observations Collide
A passage on physical and psychic changes in spirit and drug takers outlines two main changes: physical symptoms such as facial and vocal changes, irritability, insomnia, and mood shifts, plus psychic shifts including increased egotism or secrecy. The text notes variability in how these signs appear and evolve, with emphasis on the intertwined nature of body and mind. It also weaves in light anecdotes and quotes from sources and authors.
