... Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Happy New Year everyone! I want to ask if others experience light sensitivity? This is perhaps a secondary symptom, for me anyway, that I attribute to over stimulation of the endocrine system via HPPD. I am not actually sure that the endocrine system is actually stimulated since HPPD is perceptual, however! I would like to know what others experience or know in this area. I have structured my own life around limiting light, living with natural exposure without electric and basically going to bed with the chickens. Kaleidoscope here....

Jay1 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 It's something that bugged me for years... I then went through a time of pretty much always wearing sunglasses, indoors and out and it went away (for good). Maybe just coincidence, but probably worth a try (along with everything else you are doing, which sounds great). You just have to accept that your friends will laugh at you and call you Bono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted January 16 Author Report Share Posted January 16 I will give the sunglasses a try Jay! It would definitely look better than tying a black scarf over my eyes, that I have sometimes been known to do. Ugh! In thinking about over-stimulation I realize also I have a steady symphony of noise or tinnitus that adds to the ruckus. I've survived thus far!

Jay1 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 I've just ordered some of these, i think it could help with light sensitivity better than standard sunglasses. https://www.migralens.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yessss I have a lot of light sensitivity! Sucks! It did get better over the years. Maybe around 40% better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
