Hey ya'll, I'm Chris. I'm 24 and in the US Navy.
I have had symptoms of HPPD since 2008 with my first ingestion of LSD. I started noticing static on anything white. After a couple more years of infrequent psychedelic use, the symptoms of HPPD worsened. I have probably only ingested psychedelic substances of normal dosages on 10 different occasions. Right now I still see static on anything white, CEVs, and certain contrasts in colors (black and white strips are the worst) will give me strong OEVs. Usually I can ignore everything, but once I start noticing any kind of visuals, they get worse, and I get a strong feeling of anxiety. If I am dehydrated I will start seeing visuals as well.
I have never sought treatment due to the symtoms being manageable and because of my job. I am here to read about other's experiences and to relate to others.
