Video by indigochild

I don't get in touch with the hppd community out there as I should. I've been coping, recently, quite well, but for many years terribly, with hppd for 16 years in all. I am an alcoholic to boot as I used the booze to escape, but haven't had a drink now for nearly 4 years.

I wanted to say that I thought the video I came across of indigochild discussing coping strategies was excellent, very courageous. Acceptance (as I know only too well) is the key.

Well Done.

I think the 12-step model has a lot of utility for HPPD...

Yeah I think I know the video you're talking about. What was that member's name on the boards? It'd be nice to hear from him.

Cheers

It would be, he had other videos, last one he posted said he had recovered. My guess he had it for 2.5-3 years.

I just went and watched these videos thanks to this thread, and found them very inspiring and helpful. Reminds me of myself a lot and what i'm going through, what I assume a lot of us here are going through.
