  1. Dude!! This is what I have been doing. I have quit telling people of my HPPD, because they think I'm full of shit. It has almost helped in a way, I'm starting to believe its all not real. It's just my "migraines."

     

    But I'm sitting here about to achieve a pretty intense degree.. and I'm not going to let a little self induced mental retardation stop me!! I'm still the same as before.. just different. woops.

  2. I have some other weird body symptoms. I had body numbness come on after a three day alcohol binge (lol.) Definitely neck pain, and severe migraines radiating into the neck region. I have been seeing a chiropractor and doing massage, specifically japanese shiatsu.

    I myself have not gone to a medical professional to question my hppd symptoms. I know they can't do a damn thing.

     

    I would be careful not to blame everything on HPPD.. you have only had this for 4 months. (I'v had for 3 and a half) I know for me, things have improved. I have heard before to wait 6 months before you seek medical attention.. let things heal a little on their own.

     

    Good luck :)

  3. Hi all :)  I'm a girl from Washington.

    I believe that I have some form of HPPD.. I'm three months in.. still an hppd baby.

    My symptoms include visual snow, dp/dr. Patterns swim and move, like ceiling tiles will shuffle. I get frame vision, seems to be a rarer symptom for people. I had it BAD for a week, everything was shuttering, picture frame movement. Now I only have it when I look at something for the first time, it will shutter. I have head pressure, tinnitus, numbness in extermeties, and the biggest migraines. I sometimes get this eerie vivid high definition like vision. I also feel very fuzzy headed. Can’t think anymore. Something is clearly wrong with my CNS.

     

    I am really determined not to let this ruin my life. I'm going to continue my studies.. try to keep doing everything I wanted.

    I'm just starting to lose hope for recovery.. I feel fried, and I don't think I have the normal HPPD case that gets better.

     

    Anyways. The drugs that caused this for me was a bad string of "molly." I bought from some people I didn't know.. and it had something bad in it that didn't like my chemical balance.

     

    To make things better I exercise, relax, do yoga. I have almost become more social after hppd, I just want to be around people for support. I like to take 5-htp to decrease anxiety and sad feelings. I was taking ginko ( but stopped because I heard it causes headaches), fish oil, multivitamin, and B12.

     

    I guess only time will tell what will happen with me. It is so hard to stay away from alcohol.. I love the bars and my friends. Since my onset my symptoms have been extremely variable. I always tell myself with a bad symptom.. give it ONE WEEK. Usually in one week, things are different.

     

    So theres a little bit about me :)
