hey guys, im new here,
so i have been suffering from this thing for about 2 months now, but i actually don't know what it is ? whether DP/DR ? or HPPD ? or something else.

i got all this from smoking weed, out of a printing paper (A4). havent touched LSD, MDMA etc ever.

ohh!, and i never had that 'i am going to die feeling, when i was high'.

i got restless legs as well,

anybody got headaches  ?

anyone who got HPPD or Depersonalisation , got headaches as well ?

i have derealization and visual snow, and i get terrible headaches, which seem to move around.

thanks

can anyone, tell me the difference between ? HPPD and DP/DR ? how are the symptoms different from each other ? and how to know if i have HPPD or DP/DR ?

Wow, another topic that seems to hit the nail right on the head. Almost sounds as if I had written the topic and forgot about it other than for the part about having seen doctors and the lack of LSD MDMA, shrooms, and salvia.

 

The one thing I learned about the plastic look of the world is when I read an article about how to take a picture and use tilt shifting to make real pictures look like pictures of miniatures. The way they described the process made me feel that it was similar to what the human brain can be doing when things look a little plastic but not to such an extreme of course unless your symptoms are really that bad! Just a theory.

 

The good news for you though is that your symptoms ought to be temporary while for those of us that have done harder core drugs, we aren't so fortunate.

thanks, gives some hope. 

i can confirm that i dont have visual snow, or that tv noise shit, neither shifting colours or flashes, and geometric patterns.

although, i do have starbursts from car headlights, and after images, when i stare at flurocent lights.

and a little hazy vision which gets worse in dark areas and at night.

and about dp/dr symptoms, i guess the world feels a bit changed to me.

nothing too strong.

the best way to describe, what im feeling in my opinion, would be to say, that im stuck in a weed high, with the the visual and auditory effects, without the euphoria and relaxation., this describes my state, perfectly.

can anyone relate to this ?

thanks & regards.

yes

i still have every single symptom, although it has decreased a little. Im in for 2 years+ but i still smoke, drink alcohol, coffee and tke clonazepam, i shouldnt do that, i think when you stay completley sober chanches are bigger you will heal faster

yes, im staying off everything, untill i get better, and i have also been prescribed clonazepam 0.5 mg,  should i take it everyday ? or only when i get anxiety.

@andrewcb thanks for all the answers, but shit you make it sound like its going to stay forever, i have already stopped using all kinds of drugs, and its been around 4 weeks, and i can say that my symptoms have gotten somewhat better, (or i just got used to them so i feel that way idk!) that pop up book thing has kind of decreased.

about the migranes thing, i think it comes due to seeing bright lights everytime im not sure though!

and about DP/DR, i heard that it goes away with time, but i feel that i even if i have DP/DR it is very mild. 

thanks for the answers though, i think ill go check up with a psychologist.

and ill keep u updated.

@hppd33  do u still have these symptoms ? have they increased or decreased as time passsed ? plz reply

hello there, HPPD online members !

i have been smoking marijuana, for about 2 months now, occasionally, and never had any problem before, but after the last time i smoked weed, which was about 4 weeks ago, i have been experiencing some strange symptoms, which has really started to scare the hell out of me, and giving me terrible anxiety.

the symptoms include :

1) increased sensitivity to light, it feels like the world around me is brighter than usual, and colours are more saturated. (especially red), every kind of artificial light is bright to me, my eyes hurt when i look at lights and sometimes i get headaches also.

2) i see after images of objects when i look at them, (mostly lights) and computer screens. lights seem to have a glow to them.

3) when i close my eyes, i see grainy & noisy vision. i also see it when i'm somewhere dark.

4) at night, i have starbursts from car headlights and street lights, (mostly lights which are bulbs). this is really bothering me much.

5) if i stare at wavy patterns for a long time (10-15 seconds) they seem to move.

6) it feels like i am able to see things very deeply and clearly, which i was not able to see before. patterns seem to be more visible and pronounced in things i look at.

7)i have a changed perception, where objects seem to be either larger or smaller and they were before. kind of like in 3D.

8)i feel incredibly lazy and always want to sleep. and i find it difficult to remember things from a few days back.

9)i have become kind of a loner, and i dont want to socialize much with people, and the world somewhat feels different to me.  

these are the symptoms i can currently remember,

ive been to eye doctors, and neurologists, and they say that nothing is wrong with me, although they gave me a couple of eye drops, and clonazepam. they say that because i smoked weed, it has changed the way my brain works, and its going to take time to feel normal again.

so i want to know, if im suffering from HPPD, Depersonalization/Derealization or just anxiety ?

i would like to state that i have never done LSD, shrooms , cocaine , MDMA, Tobacco etc. (only alcohol and marijuana).

any kind of help is greatly appriciated,

kind regards
