Dry eyes while dosing
Posted: Mon Feb 17, 2014 10:55 am
Hello!
I've only recently gotten into dosing. Aside from the free samples, I purchased Nitrous, A-Bomb and Divinorum, the first two since they're recommended for beginners, and the last one since I've always been very interested in Diviner's Sage, but never got the opportunity to actually try it out for real. I also got Condition, since it's supposed to help me focus on the dose I want to do.
To dose, I'm using a sleeping mask, which covers my eyes completely, but still allows me to open them if I want to. I'm also sitting in a comfy chair since my headset cable isn't long enough to reach my bed from my desktop. The headset I'm using is a Plantronics GameCom 777. I'm not sure if said model is ideal, but they're very comfortable to wear at least, although I'll probably replace them soon, since I need a more portable set of headphones, anyway.
Now to my problem. Whichever dose I listen to, no matter if I choose to do Condition first or not, no matter if I close my eyes or leave them open and just look at the inside of my sleeping mask - my eyes get dry to the point that it hurts in a matter of minutes. Every time. The only way to stop said pain at least temporarily is to rub them, which obviously breaks my concentration and isn't exactly healthy to do regularly, either.
My eyes as such are fine, I don't wear glasses or contact lenses and I'm careful not to strain them too much.
Does anyone have any experience with this, and knows what to do about it? Dosing is fun, but it's not going to work out this way. Who knows what kinds of consequences this might have.
