Thanks for all the help everyone, love this community, were all in this together!

Thank you for your insight, im doing better now. I have since stopped taking zoloft, i was also experiencing sexual side affects and they have since ceased. No long term issues were caused by zoloft im doing well. Ill check out selfhacked sounds interesting!

Recently was prescribed zoloft for anxiety, my visuals are much worse today and dissociation is high, anyone have any insight? thanks

Thanks for the info im still pretty new to everything, so I didnt know what works and what doesnt. Ill take it all into consideration while I attempt to make a decision. Thanks again!

Hey everyone I’ve been reading topics about anxiety treatments but I’m still pretty confused, I want to go on anxiety medication but dont know what works or what makes it worse so could I get some insight? Thanks, marce

oh yes definitely i wouldnt try it cause well were all afflicted the same way and i wouldnt want to worsen it, i was just curious cause my friend asked me about it and i wanted to know. Thank you for the insight!

Anyone ever dropped acid and went to sleep? im curious about how it would affect dreams and whatnot if at all, thanks:)

how is CBD treating you? given its a non psychoactive and ive been meaning to try it to help curb anxiety

Really so music worsened it? I play music constantly on earbuds to not hear the ringing so should I stop? or was it only because of concert music not earbuds?

Ive been trying, it gets pretty loud and its annoying, but thanks anyways

Hey everyone, one of my symptoms is tinnitus-like ringing in my ears, ive heard that eardrops help with people who suffer from actual tinnitus but does anyone know if it will help with my symptom too? thanks, marce

My symptoms are, I guess in relation to others' VS is mild. I've only had hppd since April, but regardless I experience dp/dr quite a bit, and I have a tinnitus like ringing in my ears that is pretty loud and can only really be drowned out with constant music. I also have a bit of a foggy mind as if I'm still high, and my reaction time has slowed down, as well as my eyes feeling like they roll very slowly in my head. Also I cant see shit at night, the VS makes me almost night blind. Best wishes to everyone here. -marce

Im curious to know if alcohol worsens hppd and if that only applies to getting shitfaced or does it apply to light drinking too? Also i smoke cigarettes, does nicotine affect hppd in any way? Im fine with no more drugs but id be pretty sad if i couldnt drink or smoke cigs anymore. And one more thing, ive been sort of been hearing that hppd gets worse througout the years, is this true? how many people does it get worse for? the majority? im scared of it getting worse im 17 and dont want this to affect me any worse than it is already.. sorry for all the questions thanks for reading, -marce

thank you for the advice, i've started working out and going on runs, and i feel great but i noticed that my tinnitus like symptoms as well as my visual snow gets worse when im extremely exhausted from say running, is this a good thing? and i have also found that distractions help me ignore it more easily than not.

thanks guys ill remember that for the next time it gets too intense.

My depersonalization/derealization is worse than usual today, I feel like Im losing my mind. Does anyone know any methods for dealing with this? thanks -marce

I do smoke often and it doesnt make visuals intolerable but it definitely makes them stronger and the ringing in my ears gets almost unbearably loud. Ill take a break for a while and stay hopeful thank you for the support and advice

I will thank you for the advice!

Hahaha yes that's probably a better idea

Just found this site and I think itd help me cope better with hppd so here's how Ive been affected. I'm not super expreienced with psychedelics Ive probably only dropped acid about 12 times, shrooms once, and ecstasy once. It was after my fourth trip that I developed visual snow, and only off of 2 tabs, so naturally I panicked thinking I was perma-fried, but it was very minor so I didnt really care. I kept taking acid and it progressively got worse as I'm sure you all know and now I havent dropped in 2 months probably and I dont plan to drop anytime soon. My visual snow is super bad now with flashing of light, small visuals, and some pretty bad night blindness. I have also developed the tinnitus like ringing in my ears, and experience dissassociation and derealization time and time again. I have also noticed a slowing of my reaction time and find it harder and harder to remember things and pay attention, I am also very restless now and find it hard to sit still. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind and that nothing is real, but I can usually reassure myself that of course reality is real its reality right? Ive had hppd since April of 2017, so not as long as a lot of you here but hopefully it gets better, thanks for reading. -marce
