Happy New Year to you too, Jay and to everyone! I also would chime in to all, be of good courage! You never know what life can bring, but I can surely say don't be overcome by HPPD. I remember well my first Christmas with HPPD, long before anyone had a name for it! This would have been maybe 1972? And I only 13 years old! Wow, we travelled to be with cousins and boy was I in the twilight zone! I must really say that understanding and defining this syndrome actually helped me to be in command of it. I wish you all courage and skill and above all faith to unmask and master this thief We call HPPD. So far...so good! Kaleidoscope
