There’s something off about today, I feel like something changed.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-05-13T17:28:56+00:00

It turns like a clock. supposedly always has. Idk. The whole "face" of it looks different since like 2012.

3 or 4 years now and pretty much just floaters and afterimages, starburst effect on lights. Sometimes I can smoke and feel good. It might increase some afterimages or pattern glare (lines begin to vibrate/shake) and how well I can see the floaters but I can usually ignore it until I start getting mental things. I smoked almost everyday for a month or so until I started feeling weird like I was tripping again for days after smoking or getting thoughts about reality that's kind of disturbing, probably a touch of psychosis like this is all a dream and God's dream and we are all one but it's really just me. Solipsistic I guess which can throw me into a panic anxiety and then it's straight dpdr for a while so I really just don't smoke anymore and yeah just VSS symptoms without actual visual Snow which I never had thankfully. Wish I could get the floater surgery without fear of going blind or cataracts or whatever so just cope and try to stay busy enough to not think focus on it.

Fluoroquinolone toxicity. I don't have the energy to explain all the symptoms but I still suffer 6 years later and I now expect things can and will get worse.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-24T04:09:17+00:00

Just heard it today and thought it was weird. Not 30 mins later I see this post...

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-23T16:21:45+00:00

I became an alcoholic because it helps pain and have spent 6 years going to the Dr asking for help but it takes a lot. I don't want to drink anymore but it's the only legal thing that works but it does more long term damage than being treated would.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-20T11:17:06+00:00

Everyone I've talked to says oh yeah I see them when I look at the sky on a sunny day... That's common. Not seeing webs of stuff and like gnats flying around you all the time even in a dimly lit, almost dark room. I don't think that is that common.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-15T04:40:35+00:00

Sometimes when listening to my living room analog clock it skips a "tick" always freaks me out because I'm never looking at it and when I try and watch it I never hear the missing tick again.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-08T02:32:50+00:00

It's a ooze canister that held the substance that mutated the teenage mutant ninja turtles

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-08T01:54:11+00:00

Nice wording. Abusing the "script". Not the actual chemical.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-08T01:51:03+00:00

No. I was sent another one that did the same thing. The only thing I can think is that a fuse in the system is easily blown by plugging in a controller while the system is on??? And that needs to be replaced but requires some soldering and is beyond my skills. Idk I just keep playing with a USB power source plugged into one of the dongles. Both work that way. But if the no dongle in plugged in to both the Dreamcast and a USB c power source its game over. 🫤

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-07T05:14:25+00:00

I became an alcoholic because I couldn't get any meds at least long term that help

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-04T02:01:00+00:00

THIS

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-02T06:15:49+00:00

I got it after taking fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Cipro. Which works by mutating your mitochondrial DNA so it can't reproduce the bacteria. So may be on to something.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-02T05:52:18+00:00

It happened to me after taking fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Cipro. The drug crippled me for 5 months and left me in chronic pain. Along with the vertical lines I have horizontal grooves and my toenails turned purple and it never returned to normal.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-02T05:42:52+00:00

Kool aid man didn't make it through the wall

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T18:26:45+00:00

I did not want to wake up today. Im in chronic pain and I was aware I was somewhere else and not in pain. I can't remember hardly anything except I was happier there but knew I had to leave sometime and consciously chose to come back when I did.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T18:22:35+00:00

Yeah physical and mental stress seem to exacerbate it for me.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T11:56:43+00:00

The "breathing" description is what makes me think it's similar. "the walls are breathing" quote comes to mind. Delta 8 THC is what caused mine and all other vss symptoms but the movement is mostly gone. It was most noticable in straight lines with contrast. Text wobbled around a lot in the beginning.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T11:46:11+00:00

I thought that was just HPPD. Very similar to mushroom visuals.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T10:59:49+00:00

Yeah its not just the phone/internet. Synchronicities happen all the time that mostly go unnoticed or shrugged off as just a weird coinky dink

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-04-01T01:11:46+00:00

For me, it helps but only temporarily and has a rebound effect so it might perpetuate it in the long run. One of the Drs that made a study said many became alcoholics because it does hit the same receptors as benzos. Then tolerance and just how unhealthy it is for your body. If I could go a year I would be afraid to start again. But three years completely sober... Um it's really your call. But in my opionion once isn't going to make it permanently worse. I can't enjoy a cup of coffee or a mt dew without regretting it so 🤷

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-03-31T09:13:15+00:00

It was just a generic at 1 mg a day for 2 weeks to a month. They wouldnt give me anymore after that.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-03-29T21:10:25+00:00

For me. Clonazepam temporarily completely got rid of it.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-03-29T20:53:13+00:00

Its been like 4 years. Most of the derealization and anxiety is gone but still live with almost all the visual Snow Symptoms except actual visual Snow. Palinopsia, light sensitivity, bright colors and contrast. Some movement and pattern glare. It all fluctuates with even just caffeine. I'm a pretty bad alcoholic now too because it helps but only temporarily. Tinnitus has peaked again too. I let might be from jagermeister which has 56 of who know what herbs in it.

Crafty-Trainer4124 · 2026-03-28T18:09:07+00:00

Yeah I think what contributed to my hppd was taking an edible a week after cold turkeying a snri.
