  1. Hi .......,


    Sorry for the lack of contact, would it be possible to set up a Skype call to talk about this, my Skype address is........  It would be good if we could have a chat so I can understand more about the kind of symptoms you are experiencing and the kind of study that you think might be useful to you and other sufferers of this condition. Then I can speak with the Beckley Foundation to see if they know any scientists who may be able to conduct the research, alternatively, we could potentially design the research, raise the funds with the Beckley Foundation then offer the position of lead scientists to someone.  Please let me know a good time to arrange a Skype, I'm fairly free next week and am in GMT timezone.
     
    Best wishes

  3. just makes me think this word is so screwed up.. we are always in search of more, how we can better our own situation.

    it should start from a diffrent premmise, "how can i serve / how can i be of service?"...

     

    No one cares, people are motivated by self intrest alone. I feel this all comes down to ignorange. Just my own perspective on things.

  4. thanks for shareing!

     

     

    I can recommend a quite new film about Stephen Hawking and his journey through life named "The theory of everything". He is too smart to get depressed or feel sorry about himself and his illness is thousands of times worse then HPPD.

     sounds like a good movie, i will hire it :-)

  5.  

    Now I use my overall mindset as the benchmark though... Visuals might be on a spike, but if my mindset is pretty good, I don't get into a big panic anymore.

     

    Thats very helpful.

     

    If someone can learn to master there mind set dispite what is going on.. i agree it makes a tremendous differance.

     

    In someways that may be like.... not trying to get rid of ones "problem" tho becomeing bigger, stonger and more powerful (mindset) than the problem so its not as much of a hinderance.

     

    I find that when im in my most possative / powerful state, thats when i enjoy life the most and possbly notice hppd less.

  6.  I agree.. The Resistance itself creates suffering.

     

    To the best of one’s ability, accept. i.e. "It just is." attitude.

     

    With practice a person may be able to get to a place where u can just witness ”watch" there HPPD without being so affected by it. This usually happens by building up your "threshold" for what you can handle in life. i.e. It’s happening, tho, hppd is not me, it’s just one small part of me.. Just like if someone has blue hair, they are not there blue hair, it is one small part of them. etc Its happening tho "your response" to it.. alot of the time may be the key thing.

     

    Yes so being aware of your reactions to HPPD can be helpful. So you may be able to adopt those attitudes that are more life giving and conductive toward healing rather than fighting and getting more engrossed in it.

     

    There are quite a few cognitive and esoteric theories and practices that endorse this type of approach. For example acceptance and commitment therapy ACT.

    I suppose with time a person does adjust in some ways which can make a difference. I’m not trying to say it does not suck, tho with certain tools, approaches and attitudes I feel confident that one can likely manage things a lot more managable.

     

     

    I can explain this much better in person. Sometimes it’s tricky to put down in words.

     

    Hope this is helpful.

  7. Here in Australia we have "Rainbow Serpent" and "Confest" there are also cool Eclipse festivals that take place in the central desert :-)

     

    Was curious.. "Shadow Play" If u were going to film  hppderers going thru their daily activity’s.. Does this mean we could go train at the gym together?  LOL Love being an exhibitionist on camera LOL :D

  8.  

    I'm working on another documentary right now, but I will do a more serious project about HPPD in a few years. I'm thinking of following maybe 4-5 people with major HPPD through their daily lives and to talk about their story on the way.

     

    that sounds awesome Shaddow Play !

  9. Exellent Jay that sounds very good!

     

     

    Just need sound and lighting.... and people to interview.

    How could we find "trippers wanted" for the users portion ? lol

     

    Possibly there might be a some kind of Rave or Festival that may be a helpful to interview folks who are "using" etc.. That would be quite spun out entering back into that world now. Maybe it would be good to team up with a friend.

     

    I would not know much about sound and lightening tho.

     

    Cool if you will do it this weekend, so will I .. i have Windows Media Player set up on my PC .. I am sure that will be sufficent :rolleyes:
