Well 2 wks ago while getting a haircut It's the 1st time aura as the lights but I felt a change. Next thing I remember the guys helping me to a set. I asked what happened and the barber said u had an episode. So I didn't remember when he finished. But I've heard of the aura but never experienced until then. So I'm nervous about certain lights. It's a shame I've been going to this barber for years.
My simple partials had the smell of bleach, or acetone. On occasion I still ask my wife "Do you smell that?" I'm relieved when she does. I recently had my truck detailed at Ziebart; whatever they use for their interior fabric protection is an even better description. Olfactory hallucination.
I get foul smells and road tar or herbs from strong smelling or plain things, depending?
Yes! For me it can be different smells like the smell of burning wires for example.
