Let me fall
into the darkness
empty
and become void.

  • That’s a very interesting story.

    I too have trouble eating anything solid sometimes. It’s just too much. I couldn’t digest it, I couldn’t even swallow it. But fortunately, the supermarket where I live sells liquid food, basically like a milkshake, for low price over-the-counter. So I drink that a lot. It’s not “normal”, but it works for me. Cheers.

    Also, what do you personally believe the reason is? Do you have any spiritual thoughts on this?

    So, I’d like to explain my personal view: In older times, it was believed that spirits sometimes take possession of humans. These humans are called “schamans”. That causes a series of symptoms, including: dry heaving (especially during the “initiation” period - the initial phase). This is supposed to “clean the body (and also the mind)”. The stomach is seen as the “center” of the human (because it is almost completely in the center of the human) and the dry heaving is kinda “throwing out” bad thoughts from your most inner self. During that time, to not complicate the process, people don’t eat solid food, because eating solid food would require greater physical strength, and the stomach is busy. TL;DR: Dry heaving is IMO a spiritual “cleaning” ritual, and not eating solid food simplifies the process.
