Incense is literally glorified smoke. If my lungs can't even handle breathing in a single particle of regular second hand smoke without my esophagus flap or wtv closing on me, idk what makes incense any different. In conclusion I HATE IT, MY MOM USED TO LIGHT SOME UP AFTER DINNER AND I CAN'T EVEN GET OUT OF MY ROOM reply
Wow, I’m so glad that that I’m dyslexic. I was GENUINELY worried for a second when I read incest and then ‘super religious family’. That’s not a good combo. ESP not with rituals in the mix
Also I cannot stand incense or anything perfumed at all. No candles, cologne, scented detergent, bathroom sprays, things you hang in your car, nothin...... reply
I only light it occasionally, if you get good quality ones they'll actually smell good and not just like smoke. But it still bothers me trying to breathe it in, so definitely not something I would consider a hobby reply
I always have dragonsblood incense burning. The best smelling one to me. Helps calm my anxiety, and helps to focus me when im writing. Kinda the spicier version of a candle. reply
