'''Conceptual thinking''' can be described as an alteration to the nature and content of one's internal thought stream. This alteration predisposes a user to think thoughts which are no longer primarily comprised of linguistic words and linear sentence structures. Instead, thoughts become equally comprised of what feels to be extremely detailed renditions of the innately understandable and internally stored concepts which words exist to label. Essentially, thoughts cease to be spoken by an internal narrator, and are instead “felt” and intuitively understood.

For example, if one were to think of an idea such as a "chair" during this state, one would not so much hear the word as part of an internal thought stream, but would feel the internally stored, pre-linguistic and innately understandable data which comprises the specific concept labelled within one's memory as a "chair". These conceptual thoughts are felt in a comprehensive level of detail that feels as if it is unparalleled within the primarily linguistic thought structure of everyday life.

This is sometimes interpreted by those who undergo it as some sort of a "higher level of understanding".


During this experience, conceptual thinking can cause one to feel not just the entirety of a concept's attributed data, but also how a given concept relates with and depends upon other known concepts. This often results in the perception that one can better comprehend the complex interplay between an idea one is contemplating and how it relates to other ideas.

Conceptual thinking often coincides with [[personal bias suppression]] and [[analysis enhancement]]. It is a very common effect under the influence of [[dosage#common|common]] to [[dosage#heavy|heavy]] [[dosage|dosages]] of [[hallucinogen|hallucinogens]] such as [[psychedelic|psychedelics]] and [[dissociative|dissociatives]]. However, other compounds such as [[entactogen|entactogens]] and [[cannabinoid|cannnabinoids]] can inconsistently induce this effect under the influence of [[dosage#heavy|heavy]] dosages.
