Scared23

Thank you for the advice. I was already committed to staying sober and won’t touch anything for a long while. I’ve seen everyone’s posts and realized that any drugs can make this into a debilitating condition. It just seems odd, most posts are of people who abused psychadelics or had a terrible trip, and it seemed to happen right after. None of these things happened to me, and it occurred nearly 3 months after of me taking a low dose of molly, less than a point of me eating it. Just seems odd but I’m grateful that it’s so mild. Still holding out hope that I don’t possibly have it.

Hello everyone. I’m currently 19 a rising sophomore in college. I experimented with drugs, but never abused them or had a bad trip at all. I’ve done acid 4 times, each time a half tab less than 100 ug. Barely had visuals, never saw anything and it was mostly mental. I did molly about 3 months ago, the first time I truly tripped. i had fun with my friends, the comedown was bad but nothing anxiety inducing or bad visuals or anything like that. It was a in a big frat party setting, I had a lot of fun. It was fun, but vowed to never touch drugs again besides weed. I liked it, but they weren’t for me. I never had a bad trip at all, no PTSD or anything all were very controlled and good times. During this time, I was smoking weed from sunrise to sundown all day every day, never giving my brain a break. I quit 3 weeks ago, and ever since quitting I’ve had symptoms of HPPD, albeit pretty mild compared to others on here. My visual snow is not 24/7, mostly only at night and only on certain surfaces. I have afterimages, but I have to intently stare at an object for 5+ seconds for them to happen, it has to be bright or high contrasted. I also see floaters a lot. Have a little bit of DP/DR, but it’s manageable (just feel weird and uncomfortable as if I’m living in my head sometimes, as if I weren’t giving the commands to do or say stuff. I also constantly second guess if I’m feeling normal ALL THE TIME.) as I go to work everyday and managed to finish the semester with straight A’s. My cognitive abilities aren’t impaired, and my memory is still sharp as a tack. Other than that, I don’t have other symptoms. Is it possible I have this? I didn’t start seeing any symptoms until researching weed withdrawal, and leading me to the Reddit HPPD page. Ever since then, I started seeing afterimages and vs. My DP/DR developed a few days into quitting weed and nicotine. I’m freaking out and can’t stop researching this, wondering if I have it, which seems to make my symptoms worse and worse. I’m hoping this is all something caused by my increased anxiety from quitting weed. Any comments help.
