yes sounds really strange the dimension morph but i never had it on salvia neither. only the feeling of being sucked into the sofa and micropsia/macropsia(a small room seems to be a big hall). i only got such strange sensations on DXM+DPH passion i wont to panic you too but if you can be sure it was weed, maybe you should see a neurologist and tell him the story could also be a form of temporal lobe epilepsy triggered by cannabis.

this sounds like that inmy opinion: http://www.migraine-aura.org/content/e27891/e27265/e42285/e42442/e42444/e42494/index_en.html the fourth image cant hotlink it sry i think the movement of letter or carpet pattern wont cause balance problems. its more like the scene in "Fear loathing in Las Vegas" when the two are checkin in at the hotel This is mentioned in every drug forum of the world and seems to be one of the most "visual disturbances" after psychodelic consumption. the most people having it never heard about HPPD like me 6 years ago.

yeah also crokodile reached germany. they are punching heroin with it. really not funny. but the weed LSD thing is a myth you cant smoke it iam sure. Jay i believe if you are not prepared to take LSD it could kick you out of reality. And yeah sounds liike salvia(but i had never such a bad feeling on it and i smoked alot of extract 6 years ago even under the influence of LSD really wired trips) but it also could be Spice or another legal herb these fucking herbs can kick you out of everything.... but you can read up here: http://www.migraine-aura.org/content/e27891/e27265/e42285/e42442/e42448/index_en.html that there were also cases of cannabis induced persisting perception disorders

hmm LSD in Weed here in germany are you serius?^^ i think its a myth like lacing weed with pcp i think this happend a few times in the states but never heard of a case here in germany. if i remember correctly it is not possible to smoke LSD because if it gets to hot it will lose its effect you also shouldnt leave your blotter in the sun because LSD decomposed in warm temperture. Salvia on the other hand needs really hot tempretures to gets it effekt. we lit our bong allways with a bunsen burner when we used to smoke this fucking herb^^ But as i posted here: http://hppdonline.co...c/822-cannabis/ weed can do strange things on its own. because there is too much THC in it today and not enough cannabidiol(CBD) i had an expierence while smoking a joint on a carousel (these round discs you can find on a playground) i still felt the spinning one hour after leaving it. very strange^^ But mostly cannabis induced visuals are timelimeted (not always but mostly), so stay away of every drug and you possibly will be fine in a few weeks to month

hmm its only a test maybe it would look a little bit stupid to glue a card with a pinhole infront of your eye. but if it works you coud try artificial tears or you ask your ophthalmologist for corrective glasses(prisms)

i have another question about your ghosting effect... You know the pinhole test? make a hole with a needle in a piece of paper and watch through it... Do you still ahve ghosting while watching through it? If you dont have it anymore its a refractive error of the eye(dry eye, astigmatism, eyelid pressure) and not a organic one also its not related to a braindisorder. My ghosting is completly gone by doing this test. so seems to be an eye related phenomenom, dont know why i first noticed it post HPPD^^

And wants to share it with you http://psychedelic-i...ory.com/toc.php Its the onlineversion of a book which could be interessting i flew over it and it has a lot of good information about psychodelics, neuroplasticity, human perception and other. read up about the types of hallucinations they mention 3 diffrent types: Entoptic:(Phosphenes) think here you could add afterimages, VS and CEVs Eidetic: geometric webs and grids; distortions of space and time; and photographic images of objects, people, or scenery Erratic: breathing, melting and movement These are created in diffrent parts of the brain, eye or visual pathway Maybe that is why some HPPDer see geometric stuff like faces and others dont. Maybe there are diffrent parts of the brain involved. Eidetic Hallucinations seems to be connected to the Hippocampus (memory storage) while Entoptic seems to have their origin in the retina and the optic tract. Maybe this would also explain the part of the diagnostic criteria: "The re-experiencing, following cessation of use of a hallucinogen, of one or more of the perceptual symptoms that were experienced while intoxicated with the hallucinogen" some "re-experiences" the eidetic hallucinations while the others "re-experiences" the entoptic phenomenom like VS, Afterimages and CEVs this are only my conclusions!! Would like to discuss

which drugs caused your issues? and are you still using them?

try to cover one eye and read if it is gone its quite normal, the most people could see it if they want if i remember right. i think HPPD and the attention to your eyesight plays a role with this movement thing: interessting reads: http://resources.metapress.com/pdf-preview.axd?code=657k372133m66152&size=largest http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_movement

yeah you can ignore the most of them but it is not possible to ignore every symptom the ignoring works for me with symptoms i could enjoy to some degree like movement, breathing (micropsia/macropsia), "comicstyle". if this where my only symptoms i wouldnt give a shit like the last 5 years. this symptoms are gone mostly except i want them to be there and watch for it. But after the VS, Palinopsia and ghosting kicked in it is hard to dont think of them. because you always see them. iam able to control the snow in some way, but i dont know how to ignore the afterimages, trails and ghosting. Maybe its because i dont connect them to one of my drug experiences. i saw afterimages and trails only while the acid afterglow the next day(s), but they allways went away. Cant remember seeing VS or ghosting. VS maybe to some extend with laughing gas i never had a bad trip i allways had nice experiences and i allways was able to have the control of my trips. my last trip on acid was a little bit stressful because my friend had a bad trip and i had to guide her while i was tripping. its possible that i have a form of PTSD of this trip dont know maybe this is the reason for my delayed onset while i was in a stressfull period. And my trails and halos came when i read about it and watched for it maybe they were self induced be thinking about them. possibly they were there before but i was used to it and never got them into my attention. Now i cant forget them it is like driving bike, once learned you are allways able to ride a bike. I think maybe hypnosis would help to forget about the symptoms. think they will stay because i believe its a neurological problem but if you forget about them again youre back at the beginning. But i dont think that someone is able to hypnotize me because i dont like to let somebody have the controll about me and iam a little bit to rational.

i have these movement of text since my first psychodelic trip 6 or 7 years ago.sometimes it is hard to read teletext hope thats the english word^^ but that never really bothered me on the contrary i liked it. But this movement can happen to every person even those who have nerver used psychodelics. like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autokinetic_effect my bigest problem is the palinopsia dont know who to get rid of it.

i think they are talking about how to amplify there visuals if i read it correctly. but iam only lurking the yuku forum maybe i missed something i can controll my snow too if i unfocuss my eyes hard to explain i wont see it. but then i have focussing problems its alittle bit like being crossed eye.

the eyball touching works for me too. maybe it has to do with the pupil size like mentioned in this article: https://www.thieme-connect.de/DOI/DOI?10.1055/s-2008-1045693 if i go to the cinema and watch a 3D-movie i see the ghosting through the 3D-glasses like you see the movie without it i also see the 3D-effect but there is ghosting on every person, does anybody have this too?

I would say yes there will be a cure, i believe gene therapy or a brain peacemaker could do this. but it could take a while. first I am sorry that you feel this way I believe (and yes could be frustrating) you have to live your life now. There are a lot of worse diseases outside which arent curable now(e.g. HIV). People knowing that they have to live with them come to terms and can enjoy there life as good as possible. Enjoy your life and live every day as if it is the last day of your life. You could wait for a cure and gettin depressed because it takes time You could get cured and run euphoric in front of a truck Maybe there will never be a cure(dont hope so) unfortunately life isnt predictable But life is a gift and its the best and most important gift we received. We only have this one life and cant push the reset button So do what ever you want to do and do it now it always could be the last day of our life. I think the best cure is to accept what you have and go on with your life and do what YOU want to do not what others want you to do! Best wishes and take care!

ive got mild HPPD symptoms six years ago after my first salvia trip, ignored them and took every drug which i could get the symptoms stay stable. three years ago i stopped every drug except of weed,because some of my friends drove insane and i got frightened. ive only had mild symptoms afterwards like moving, breathing, everything looks like in a comic, CEVs maybe some other dont know atm. last yearafter three years of only smoking weed i had a stressful time. got a pneumonia and took some antibiotics. i drank alcohol smoked weed and took the fucking antibiotics. three days after my last pill my vision got snowy and afterimages occured. There a few other symptoms you can read at my post under the introduction area. Stop all drugs now and it could get better!! Afew moth after stopping weed my snow has got better i can see the color black again afterimages maybe got a little better. there are bad days but also good. maybe its hard because of your friends but if they dont understand its possible time to say goodbay^^ i did that three years ago because drugs were the center of my life, i loved them maybe iam still lovin them but i know i have to lead a life in our modern sociaty (Job, Family...) Go out and find a girl which doesnt use drugs. Freunde kommen und gehen, ein leben haste nur eins!!

This is used by Naturopaths because they thing that alot of mental deseases are caused by problems in the brainchemestry. Which seems to be our problem?! Dont know if this could detect our inbalance(if this is the cause). But they seem to test Dopamine,Serotonine, GABA, Noradrenaline, Adrenaline, Glutamine,....but they are testing in salvia and urine which is maybe not related to the values in the brain. But if you have for example to much serotonine in it or not enough dopamine could you compare it to the brainchemestry? Dont know how they could know which are the Standard values, because i think they are diffrent from person to person. Also i am not a friend of this "New-Age-crap", but maybe this test could detect our inbalance? Any ideas on this?

thats my problem too. i think no german doctor knows about HPPD so i avoid neurologists as long as possible. All related ICD disorders are psychotic disorders: F16 Psychische und Verhaltensstörungen durch Halluzinogene: F16.5 Psychotische Störung F16.6 Amnestisches Syndrom F16.7 Restzustand und verzögert auftretende psychotische Störung F16.8 Sonstige psychische und Verhaltensstörungen F16.9 Nicht näher bezeichnete psychische und Verhaltensstörung And what we all know is that we arent psychotic. Try to get live your lifeso good and happy as possible and avoid neurologists, if you cant you should lie to them. i visted my "hausarzt" and ophthalmologist and told them about my visual desturbances so they does the normal checks and every thing was fine. I never mentioned my drug history. Both doesnt refer me to a neurologist so i doesnt have seen one yet. Avoid all drugs!!! Dont smoke weed, and drink ocassionally if you have to, i only drink nonalcoholic beer. It will get better or you will be able to cope with your visuals. Anxiety went in the first weeks in my case, dont know if i have DPDR because i was high for the last ten years so i dont know how it is to feel "normal". But if your comorbid diseases will overhelm you or your visuals doesnt stop to get worse you could travel to Aachen to Dr. Klaus Podoll he did he survey about Persistent Migraine Aura and also knows about HPPD so iam sure he wont put you in psychiatry. I would do so if i cant handle this alone but iam trying my best atm.

Here is a link of starbursts pictures, but i wouldnt watch it because i first noticed Halos and starbursts after searching for it. alot of people see it but are so used to it http://www.visionsimulations.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=152

http://www.migraine-...4/index_en.html something about HPPDart there is also the excerpt of kurt cobain in the end... also van gogh seems to have HPPD but they call it: http://ajp.psychiatr...rticleid=175449 but i think it fits better under HPPD but as you KNOW the most dont KNOW about it His famous self-portrait seems to be full of visual snow^^ And some say he cuts his ear because of Tinnitus. And the painting of Georges Seurat, The Eiffel Tower, 1889 Also seems to be full of VS. I think its very hard to get statistics about the prevalence of HPPD because in my opinion a lot of psychonauts have symptoms to some extend, but never searched medical help.And the others maybe have wrong diagnosis or no diagnosis. If you read several Internetcommunitys there are a lot of possible reasons of these symptoms for example: PMA(the migraine thing), HPPD, Palinopsia, Stress, Anxiety, several esoterik reasons(this persons never are searching help they see it often as a gift) ever heard of Kundalini awekening? Krishna G. Kundalini: The Evolutionary Energy in Man. Shambhala, 1997., and this are only some possibilitys, Dont want to mention the mercury poisining and the other (sorry) "new age crap". In my opinion there is ONE underlyind cause, read up about the mechanism of Drugs, Migraine, Anxiety....they are all messing with your neurotransmitters(Dopamin,Serotonin)...maybe then we come to the genetic component and fucking predefined Brains. like if 10000 people go into a house which is built for 5 and partying, some day the house will collapse and the partypeople stand in the garden, if the 5 owners of the house are comming back they have no home anymore if there would be a better cooperation maybe the science would be a step further. But people without a drug history dont want to be lumped with people with a drug history. People with drughistory especially users of halluzinogens say it has to be the drugs. Spiritually people say it must be the snake Kundalini which is crawling up your spine... Sorry for my writing excesses And happy easter to all of you!

i found a link which is in german and also in english but its not so detailed like some other german studys about it. https://www.thieme-c.../s-2008-1045693 they call it: Venetian Blind Phenomenon seems to be a german problem like HPPD an american lool, here you dont have altered vision you are psychotic fu the ICD BTW Dali never used drugs but his paintings are very Acid/HPPD inspired

Is your ghosting always the same? I mainly have it in my left eye. My ghosting is bad while squinting(both eyes), i read that the most of you have this too?! But i also noticed that my ghosting is worse after staying to long infront of my computer(dreyeye?). And another point is it is worse in the evening. After awekening in the morning it is gone and it develops again in the daytime. When i yawn(hope this is the right word) it is also away for a few seconds. Could be i sign of dryeyes?! but drops doesnt work! i also have a slight astigmatism, but glasses doesnt work too. never noticed it before the other symptoms kicked in. i read that this could also be a sign of the eyelid puts a pressure on the eye (in german: Rolladenphänomen, meaning shutters phenomenon? cant find the english term. ), this would also explain why it is gone after awekining. also my eyelid of the left eye is bigger or hangs deeper in the eye. And why did i first noticed it after all this started....am i more aware of my eyesight, has the brain filtered it out before? i know you possible not able to answer my questions,but maybe we could find things that are equal or diffrent.

here is another link which could be interessting http://ucsdnews.ucsd...lth/potpnas.htm

I believe that my heavy cannabis consumption in the past is related to my symptomes. maybe only as a kind of trigger or what ever. i researched and find an article: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21572239 a fewmonth ago i was able to read the whole article but there is only the abstract left now. i think that this also could trigger my HPPD long after my last acid trip, if weed could do this alone but timelimeted as the study stated.

i left the most of my old "drug" friends behind after stopping all this. because of the temptation to do it agsin. not because of them, they were really good friends. nowadays when i go clubbing i use to drink nonalcoholic beer, this is really good here.
