  1. I've had HPPD for many years. I'm use to the condition, it doesn't really bother me very much anymore, it's just annoying at this point. However, about once a year I have very strange visual sensations. This usually happens when I'm under extreme mental or physical pressure. I see what I can only describe as multi-colored fireworks in my field of vision. It usually only lasts a minute or so and if I concentrate I can make it go away prety easily. Is this a flashback? I always assumed that the whole flashback thing was a scare tactic various anti-drug orginazations used to keep people from using psychedelics. Just curious if anyone else has had a similar experience?
  2. I can only give advice based on my personal experience. Just give it time. I've been dealing with this since I was 17 years old (I'm 35 now). It will get better. Either the symptoms will eventually subside or you're brain will adjust and you will get use to it. If the disorder becomes to much to handle then you should seek professional help. What I'm trying to say is that it will become less of burden over time. It took me about 4 years to adjust but eventually my mind compensated to the affliction. The symptoms are still there but at this point in my life it's merely an annoyance. Try to participate in activities that you enjoy, even if you don't feel up to it. I forced myself to continue with my social activities and honestly, if not for my friends, i might have done something stupid and drastic. What I'm trying to say is that it will get better, you just need to give it some time. If you can find a doctor that will work with you...even better. I wish you the best of luck. p.s. you are cute as hell. good for you.
  3. ex, thanks for reading. anywho...Three friends & I took LSD. They had a wonderful time. I felt as if my soul had left my body. I sat in an ant bed just letting the little guys bight the shit out of my legs. It seemed like the right thing to do at the time. The 8 hour trip seemed to last months via time dialation. I understood that everyone and everything is seperate. Empathy is only a delusion. This came to me during the Trip. It was the next day that I understood my visual field was altered. I've gotten back pieces of myself since the initial incident. Slowly it comes back. Things are better at this point. The visuals are manageable. Thanks for hearing my story. edit: I too did much inhalants back in the day. I would use nitrous constantly as I worked at a dental office. I had the condition before I started abusing nitrous but I'm sure it didn't help. It's been a long strange journey.
  4. I am so happy I found this site. I didn't even know that what I am experienceing is real thing. I took some LSD 18 years ago and had a terrible trip. I won't bother you with a list of things I have Experienced, it's all pretty typical of this disease. It took about 4 years until i Felt like myself again. Anyway that's my story. My brain has compensated so even though the visuals are always present I've grown accustomed to them. If anyone wants to respond I would appreciate it. I'd be more than happy to answer any question. Anyway thank for making this site available. ps To anyone he just aquired this diease I can tell you from my own experience that it may never go away but you will manage. Like I said it was years of hell but things got much better after that. I'm not sure if I got better or just use to it. Anyway, my brain adjusted. The visuals are always there but I've learned to ignore them. Quick question: Doese anyone see Fireworks (best way i can describe them). This is not a constant thing but once a year I see fireworks. It tends to happen when I'm stressed or vomiting. These "fireworks" engulf my field of vision but if i close my eyes the seem to go away by themselves. Thanks for listening -------Greg
