cs1234 how long has it been since you have HPPD? I saw geometric patterns like you but disappeared when i stop taken ssri pills. It's a nightmare, because every night you remember you are not 'fine' ... For a while i take valerian root several times a day with no significant effects, the only thing that makes me fall asleep is to think positively, take klonopin or eating large amounts of food prior to sleep better. hope your doing well

http://www.derealization.org/derealization-info/derealization-symptoms-explained maybe you have already see that website, shows some info about dilated pupils and DP-DR. Merkan: soon i will run a second trial of sinemet. The last time i dont feel quiet well, but i notice some improvement in my double vision. What a strange feeling

I have it too but is not too high volume (when i feel really bad yes) and is the last of my problems. Doing sports helps me a lot or listen some relax music before sleep, try to distract your mind.

A few weeks ago I check my eyes too and the doc also put the drops in my eyes. I was pretty nervous because I would have dilated pupils as if under the influence of LSD. They were 5 hours of extremely blurred vision. Merkan, your pupils are dilated slightly than your pre-HPPD?

Maybe you need to stop reading this website for a while, try to not think about it and see what happens. Hope your doing well.

Sam: the fact i was hit by this disorder after 7 months is something I'll never understand. Apparently 90% of people never cease their "trip". Post acid, i smoke marijuana regularly and because of family problems and high stress i suffered panic attacks. My symptoms are mostly DP-DR but suffer the typical visual distortions. Decrease if I pay less attention, but everything remains the same since it began a year ago (obviously 0 drugs since the hit) My theory is i have depersonalization for psycological reasons.... panic attacks mixed with marijuana its not a good mix, visual distortions appeared later as a side effect. The case of nepuinthesky is even stranger than mine. I dont believe in the theory of a "trigger" of HPPD. What is HPPD? a bomb hidden in the brain? If you look dpselfhelp.com, the depersonalization tends to be triggered by specific events, if the HPPD is an imbalance or brain damage, it will not remain hidden for years and suddenly appear when he wants.

If you dont have dp-dr, you're very lucky. Dont do anything stupid, you dont want to live like tripping all the time. Believe me. If you want to feel out of your skin do skydiving.

Not drink really sucks.... but its a low price to pay... i discovered few weeks ago that the alcohol really make more "emotional unstable" and i stop drink since i notice that. Now im practice something more difficult: go party and drink water...and be happy!

Merkan, are you still experiencing the benefits from sinemet? You feel pre-hppd?

25. Its been a year know and it really sucks.

Tried lsd two times, smoke weed sometimes...6-7 months later i suffer multiple panic attacks and the first thing i noticed was the dp-dr (common in panic attack). Later...the visual phenomena and tinnitus. Dont take SSRI NEVER.

I dont know if him have hppd, but the bass player of ozzy suffer from dp-dr

How long take you to recover?

Just see the post of vipasanna meditation. It's very interesting and it cost 0 money. Also you can try CBT or EMDR therapies or start with something easy like yoga and continue with something more complex. I hope your doing well.

It's ironic, but I was the only "heavy" drug user in my circle of friends (they are quite healthy). And i was only smoke weed and the two occasional LSD trips. But it bothers me to see so many stupid people consuming large quantities of anything. I dont know if is envy or resentment. I take this as a kind of lifeline, perhaps had finished dead by eating even more dangerous substances I feel your anger gmo

1 year this month too.....im a little bit depressed but i never give up.

no, but im going to try it. Im sick of this

Nepuinthesky: I read a lot on google about experience of people with that soviet pill picamilon. 50% works, 50% not effect at all. At my country is very hard to find that, but in the US you can buy it. Would be wonderful if someone give a try. Is quite interesting and cheaper. If picamilon works like klonopin on my, i make a big party

maybe some day someone create a non addictive benzo. Actually i thinks that's possible to make but the great business behind the pharmaceutical industry..... Klonopin its the only thing so far that's give me a little of space and "ground feeling" and mostly of the time the dose are 0.5 or 1mg, two times a week. I read somewhere about a russian suplement who interact with GABA's like benzo and isnt addictive called Picamilon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picamilon

What happen?

I assume that you suffer no dr dp-nepuinthesky. Perhaps the visuals are just a residual effect. How long have you see it? CS1234: I experience something similar. The "incident" occurred 6-7 months after my acid trip (which incidentally was the strongest experience of my life) and any reference to LSD or marijuana terrified me very little time ago. I support your theory, cs1234 and am thinking of starting EMDR and CBT in order to reset my mind.

i had tried vipasanna this year, but was too hard for me. I know that's the way and i will try and try again.

Great idea. In dpselfhelp.com is much talk constantly distracted to eliminate these patterns of thought, I believe that the same should be used for any other trauma-psychological problem.

I totally agree with the two descriptions. When i need to explain it to someone (very fast) is like a being drunk, in a dream, or on weed. But its more big than that. You are still the same person (everybody told that to me) but you dont feel that. The time run very slowly and the memories are very strange. You need an answer, most people have fear to live, fear to died, fear to everything, because the world is not the same anymore.
