'''Spontaneous tactile sensations''' | '''Spontaneous tactile sensations''' are the experience of sensations across the body occurring without any obvious or immediate physical trigger. This results in feelings of seemingly random but distinct tingling sensations that occur across the skin and within the body. Depending on the [[psychoactive substance]] consumed, these vary greatly in their styles of sensation. This effect is capable of manifesting itself across the three different levels of intensity described below: | ||
#'''Mild''' - At the lowest level, the sensation can be described as subtle and fleeting tingling sensations throughout the body. These sensations do not impair physical motor control and can essentially be ignored if one wishes to do so. | #'''Mild''' - At the lowest level, the sensation can be described as subtle and fleeting tingling sensations throughout the body.
