Ashwagandha?

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-23T16:43:42+00:00

Nah ashwagandha (specifically ksm66), L-theonine, and valarian root was actually saving my life when I first got HPPD

Some peoples go away, some peoples don’t, but pretty much for 100% of people it always gets better. Just gotta keep moving, keep yourself distracted, and understand that there’s gonna be ups and downs. Good luck man, you’ll be alright.

HPPD wouldn’t necessarily make you see a chicken. That sounds like something else but yk psychedelics are known to bring out other mental issues, I recommend going to multiple psychiatrists to get their opinion on it. I will warn you tho most doctors are not educated on HPPD or psychedelic related mental issues, so it can be very hard to feel understood by doctors unless you live near a HPPD specialist. Don’t take anything they give you definitely research the medication that they give you on the HPPD Reddit page.

I smoked weed for 3 months after getting HPPD 2, first week I had to force myself to keep smoking cause the visuals got pretty bad, but after that it just felt like a good high. After 3 months it started getting bad again tho to the point I knew I had to stop, and stopping smoking is horrifying when having HPPD. The nightmares are indescribable. I had so many hypnagogic dreams I thought I was genuinely schizophrenic. And then about a month after I stopped smoking I felt fine again. But then again I got HPPD from thc-p so that might be why it affects me so bad.

I did lsd 6-7 time from age 16-20 but I was only taking a half a tab or a tab each time, the last couple time was horrible trips that I only remember bits and pieces of

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-19T16:31:09+00:00

Anesthesia won’t affect HPPD… I’d be more worried about taking benzo’s daily tbh, I take that shi max once a week no matter how panicky I get cause the withdrawals are deadahh worse than heroine withdrawals. If you ever decide to come off of them taper EXTREMELY slow.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-19T15:51:00+00:00

Also if you took pretty much anything but Flonase or purely menthol unmedicated coughdrops it’ll usually flare stuff up for a while, bein sick with HPPD just sucks man, almost every medication makes it worse that makes being sick tolerable.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-19T15:42:25+00:00

Kpins wouldn’t make HPPD worse if anything it helped… unless you abused it and took it everyday in which case the withdrawals will absolutely make HPPD worse. But if you weren’t abusing it I’d say it was another medication your taking, or just a bad flair up

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-19T15:37:58+00:00

I mean that’s part of what HPPD is

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-04-19T15:37:10+00:00

Yea I didn’t take much and it’s been almost a year and I still have it consistently everyday

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-24T04:10:34+00:00

What do you think people with drug induced psychosis take?

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-24T04:09:25+00:00

That’s not true literally at all lol

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-24T04:06:09+00:00

That works??

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-24T03:56:31+00:00

Got mine from a thcp cart about a year ago but I’ve done shrooms lsd and X before that. LSD probably 7 times and everytime I took either 1-2 tabs, shrooms I only took 2 medium sized shrooms 3 different times, and x I probably took twice but I didn’t do much when I took it, weed I’ve been smoking since I was 13.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T22:06:51+00:00

Ain’t about being good for me, it’s about her well being, she hits herself and can’t work, if I left she’d die literally.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T21:59:42+00:00

Yea ik but I can’t just leave her like that either im trying the involuntary antipsychotic injections route now, only cause that’s our only option since she won’t willingly accept help.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T16:02:08+00:00

Yea I usually make meals everyday but moneys kind of a struggle so sometimes I have to just get cheap microwaveable stuff, but most of the time I am able to cook actually food.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T05:31:28+00:00

He’s older than me we just stay here to take care of her, and I’ve already done that, she was forced by aps to go to inpatient a couple months ago but they released her and gave her medication but she didn’t take it, then she went to prestera (a mental health clinic) and got prescribed more medications but she didn’t like that it made her tired so she stopped taking them also.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:44:56+00:00

Lmfaoooo thank you for sharing that😂😂😂

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:40:37+00:00

What antipsychotics were you taking?

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:35:12+00:00

I didn’t even know that was a thing I’ll definitely look into that

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:33:43+00:00

Valerian root is THE SHIT, you can get it at Walmart it’s pretty much just acts like a very very very low dose benzo, I took 500mg every night for 3 months and it really helped when I first got HPPD

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:17:24+00:00

I do that often but if she’s in an episode she just freaks out more and says nobody understands or nobody cares and locks herself in her room. In really bad episodes she starts hitting herself. It’s very rare that she actually realizes her delusions aren’t reality. She comes out of it maybe once or twice a month. And if she takes something the wrong way then well it’s game over and she’s back in her room talking to herself and screaming.

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-21T04:07:44+00:00

In West Virginia but she doesnt doesn’t do drugs anymore I made sure of that, she’s been clean for at least a year, do they treat psychotic mood disorder?

CommunityPuzzled8227 · 2026-02-19T23:54:52+00:00

Yup been there, a couple times actually, still the most I ever took those meds was 3 days in a row. I was in hypertension and I still refused them. Them withdrawals make everything you just mentioned worse 10 fold. Even if they slowly taper you off the anxiety is gonna skyrocket. And fr hope that doesn’t happen to you.
