  1. So my onset was about 4 months ago but recently I've noticed that I've been kinda sensitive to sounds. Is this normal? Should I go get my ears checked? It's really worrying me because typically my other symptoms are not really that severe but this is driving me crazy
  2. So yesterday I fell into pressure at a show (I was a little drunk) and took a couple hits of a blunt. I wanted to just see how I would react. At first I was completely fine and then my heart rate sky rocketed and I felt like I was going to pass out or something. Everything became extremely lagey and I then began to feel a numbness/tingling sensation that started on the back of my skull and spread all over my body and I was like this for a good 2 hours or so till I came back down. Today though I feel completely normal besides my tinnitus and after images being increased a little. Is this tingling thing normal? Like it was almost painful. I haven't smoked in a long time but I don't remember it ever being like that. Has anyone experienced this?
  3. Hey I just wanted to say that a meet up with people would be awesome. It would be great on me to be able to talk one on one with someone who is experiencing this or has.
  4. Mine was a week after I had a God awful trip on mushrooms. I think when I smoked pot it triggered it or something because the week before I was perfectly fine!
  5. Hey guys! So I was just wondering is there any type of prescription or non-prescription medications/vitamins that seem to help with after images? Lately it's seems my after images are worsening and I don't know what to do. The only other symptoms I still have are starbursts/halos on lights and slight tinnitus.
  6. Second post of the day but I just wanted to let you guys know! it's been about two or so months since my onset of mild hppd and I have to say it's been a trip! I experienced many symptoms that I thought would never subside but I just wanted to say that I'm down to just 3 or so now! Halos/star bursts on car headlights, street lights, after images/floaters (which most people have so hoping it'll subside soon) and mild tinnitus. I've stayed away from all drugs besides the occasional drink or so and have been really trying to eat healthy and nutritious foods. Sometimes I'll even forget I have theses symptoms so I'm seeing the end of the tunnel here hopefully! Thanks for your guy's help, you've helped me stay sane and keep me grounded in my situation. Let me know if you need any advice or anything!!
  7. Hello friends It's been a while since I last posted. Well a month or so. Anyways my friend surprised me the other day since I was struggling with my classes and studying and wants me to take it with him. It's a Ritalin pill? Which I'm assuming is similar to adderall? Anyways I just wanted to ask what your guys opinion was on it. I have no intention on taking it because I'm assuming it wouldn't be good but has anyone of you taken such substances and noticed your hppd worsen? I do believe this is a stimulant correct? I have yet to tell my friend that I have mild/pre hppd and that I can't take any drugs but yeah insight would just be good to know!
  8. So I went to a show last night and again the only thing I did was drink a little while all my other buddies rolled face but when I got home my tinnitus was 10x worse than normal and when I got up this morning it didn't seem to improve. Am I screwed or will it go back down to normal? At one point I thought I was going to pass out cause it was so loud. I put a fan on in my room and somehow got to sleep but yeah should I just stay away from shows now too? I love concerts and I just dont want to not be able to go to them. It keeps my mind off my symptoms!
  9. Well with me anytime I have or start to get head pressure I try hard not to think about it and try and occupy myself with something else and it'll go away. I actually use math as my escape and I fucking hate math! So I mean I'm sure it's different for everyone but if a symptom starts up and you think more and more about it, it just increases to the point of losing control. Feeding it I guess one can say. Sounds like yours may possibly be a little worse than mine though. Hope you start to see improvements. Stay strong man!
  10. So I just wanted to put a little update. I started out here with few symptoms, possibly mild/pre hppd or anxiety ranging from VS, floaters, light sensitivity, dizzy ness, feeling strange, after images, halos, star bursts, head and ear pressure and possibly a little dr etc. and with the few weeks that have passed I'm starting to feel a lot better. VS is pretty much gone, sometimes in the morning when I'm tired, I'm no longer dizzy/floaty and I don't feel so strange anymore. The only thing I'm still struggling with is light sensitivity, especially at night when driving. Starbursting and the halos drive me insane but I hope this will subside or get to the point where it doesn't bother me? And my after images and floaters are kinda annoying but I think it's honestly because if I see one my brain wants to find more and I end up freaking out. Should I seek an eye doctor possibly or get an MRI or will it all just be a waste of time? But anyways I am feeling better and I just wanted to say thanks to you guys I was able to calm down and not feel so alone after my awful trip. Another question, my dreams have been extremely vivid almost real life and I've been able to recall on a couple from the same night. Is this something normal? Thank you!
  11. Update: I was DD last night and only had a couple beers. Didn't notice any changes in visuals. maybe a little more VS when I first got up but that's about it. There is one thing though that I forgot to mention. At night the lights give off a little starburst kinda thing and when looking at a phone/TV screen its not the same as it used to be, not exactly sure how to describe it. I was just wondering from you guys that have gotten over this, do these symptoms go away? Or have you learned to just ignore them? I just don't want them to increase and all that. Going to be sticking to healthy eating from here on out and probably wont be drinking for a while, I have lots of homework and studying to be doing hahaha
  12. Hey so I'm new to this HPPD stuff and I believe I have it mild/ pre HPPD. But I was just wondering for the people who have overcame this do you still have the VS and After images? I'm also slightly dizzy from time to time especially when I'm tired.
  13. Ok thank you! I will just be the DD tonight hahaha. Thanks for the advice. I just want to get over this to get back to normal!
  14. That's awesome to hear thanks guys! And for the time being should I stay completely away from alcohol too? Or limit myself to just a buzz off of it? My college is having its rivalry game tonight and my friends all want to go tailgating? Stick to beer maybe? Thanks again!
  15. And to add I've been drinking nothing but water and have been trying to eat super healthy all week! And staying busy with things/homework/hanging with friends.
  16. Hey guys! So I'm new to this because I've come to realize that I may possibly have HPPD Two weekends ago I tried shrooms for the first time in some tea my friend made at a house party and it was probably the worst decision I ever made. I honestly didn't really have any crazy visuals or anything. It was just strange and things were different. I was paranoid, kinda sad and couldn't fall asleep. I dreaded every second of it and I knew I shouldn't have drank the damn tea. I essentially had an awful trip and made me never want to do psychedelics again. The day after was pretty tough but I eventually felt normal again. The following week I felt completely normal with no symptoms at all. Then this past weekend I went to another party and decided to drink a little and I also smoked. I smoked A LOT probably the most I've had in a really long time. I also had a great time but the following day was shit. And the next day and the next day. I felt like I wasn't getting better. I noticed that I had just a little bit of VS but I mean I thought I've always had some. and everything was just a little strange still. It was taking me forever to sleep and my head felt a little weird. At night lights seem more enhanced or something? All this week I've not felt myself and it's awful. I've been trying super hard to ignore it and tbh I've seen some improvement today and yesterday almost to where I've felt normal. I just want to know if it was possible that I got HPPD from all the weed I smoked this past weekend or if it possibly triggered it from me taking shrooms the weekend before. I'm not that much of a drug user and I'm honestly have a low tolerance for things. I just need to know if it's HPPD or something else or if I'm just tripping myself out. These past few months I will be honest and say that I've been smoking and going out just about every weekend. So please if you guys have any info or tips for me that would be great. I've been a little stressed out about this and worried that my life is screwed. I have also take ecstasy before but it was quite a while back. Thanks for your help guys. I'm so glad I found this board if this is what I may possibly have!
