  1. I bought a lutein with zeaxanthin supplement a week ago and have been taking it every night since. 20 mg lutein and 800 mcg zeaxanthin. Its been somewhat helpful but definitely nowhere near a cure.
  2. I had it since April. If you continue taking supplements, exercising, and taking care of yourself plus understanding that you are still the same person on the inside you should be okay.
  3. The first 4 months of my HPPD I just felt generally bad but after I started exercising during the 5th month I started feeling more like a normal person again. I would say exercise has caused me to have more ups and downs whereas prior to exercise I usually had a baseline feeling.
  4. A lot of people with schizophrenia actually see animals, insects, and/or people that are not there. HPPD is not like that.
  5. But I am not a professional at diagnosing schizophrenia lol. Just my opinion based on my experience.
  6. Yeah it could be. I know the fear and anxiety from HPPD has made me very obsessive, hypersensitive, and less confident... leading me to be terrified of any thought that is out of the ordinary. So instead of taking a CEV, after image, movement in my visual field, or a trippy thought for just what it is I go into a negative loop filled with anxiety because I`m basically thinking "OMG I must be going crazy!"
  7. Well it should help you judge how serious your intrusive thoughts are. Check this out too: http://m.psychologytoday.com/blog/am-i-normal/201110/intrusive-thoughts-normal-or-not
  8. For some reason I can`t reply with a link but google "intrusive thoughts" and read wiki and the other links. That should help.

  13. I have the same problem Shaman. The more I exercise the more intense my visuals get although my DP and DR goes away. Exercise helped with restoring my bodily sensations. But the visuals get so intense sometimes it almost feels like I am tripping but my pupils are completely normal when it happens and I don`t experience any psychedelic euphoria. Its so confusing lol
  14. Hey does anyone know of a doctor in the New York area that has heard of HPPD and is willing to try and treat it?
  15. I take a supplement that contains valerian root, hops, passion flower, and lemon balm in one. It helps in getting a good night`s rest and with depression.
  16. Holy fuck Visual. That finger technique actually helped a little.
  17. Driving actually makes me feel better. It keeps me focused. The only problem I have is at night when there are a lot of headlights on from oncoming traffic.
  18. I produce music on ableton with my friends and sometimes its hard to focus but other than that there are no problems.
  19. I get tingles too but sometimes it feels like its just my nerves handling too much anxiety.
  20. Yeah kinda but its either pressure or like activity going on in the center of your brain or closer to the forehead and temples. Was anyone able to get an EEG or MRI after telling their doctor about HPPD besides David Kozin?
