Hey MadDoc,
Sorry to reply to a message from so long ago haha, I have been scrolling back through the forum for a personal project. I'm 23, and I've had had HPPD for 5 or so years and I'm doing pretty well! I live a normal, moderately successful life, and no-one would ever realise I had this strange disorder unless I told them. I was just curious about your life with HPPD in relation to your family - were you very open with your wife and with your children (when they were old enough to understand) about having HPPD? If so, how did you speak to your children about it/how did you talk to them about drugs in general? Hopefully I'll have a family of my own too one day, and the thought of how I would approach it with my children often crosses my mind (I come from a very liberal social and political background and perspective, naturally).
Thanks and take care.
