I am curious as to whether this is a typical occurrence for others. My wife asserts that it is not, yet my oral cavity appears to be undergoing a state of constant transformation, as evidenced by my previous post. I previously described the phenomenon of my neck muscles appearing to pop out like a tube when I smiled. However, today the posterior aspect of the oral cavity (corresponding to the point where the teeth cease) underwent a sudden and pronounced retraction. Popping and Tearing. Subsequently, when I smile, the same number of muscles as previously observed are now less visible.

On other occasions, my arm has become rigid and enlarged due to the spontaneous growth of muscle tissue. This has resulted in the development of a painful growth that has spread across my chest and up my arm to my shoulder and neck. Subsequently, the muscles in my neck were forced to bulge outward, causing my mouth to be forced and locked open. Then, my teeth began to disintegrate, becoming markedly shorter and more uniform in length, with the exception of my three central incisors, which grew into points. The teeth subsequently began to grow to their normal length. Additionally, a previously broken tooth was accidentally swallowed, but I then created a mental image and attempted to heal what I perceived to be a fracture in my chest. The tooth was subsequently absorbed into the body, resulting in discomfort and a popping sensation in the chest. This eventually healed. While this may not be a typical occurrence, I sought to confirm whether this was a normal process.

Happens all the time. Drink some water and put an ice pack on it. Call a doctor if the swelling worsens after 48 hours

Well there isn’t swelling at all. Just healing.

Imma stab you with silver because you a werewolf!

Seriously, if you're not doing a silly roleplay, you need to see a psychologist. There are all kinds of mental health issues that can make you imagine things like this, and it can feel 100% real to you. The good news is an antipsychotic can treat delusions like these very effectively.

Yeah I was on antipsychotics for awhile did nothing and nah I’m not roleplaying. That would be considered lying within my opinion and I do not lie.

The try a different one. Go back to your psychologist.
