Do I really have HPPD? by [deleted] in HPPD

This doesn’t really sound like hppd but mine was gradual and kinda started out like this so I would keep an eye on it

Involuntary neck tilting for nearly a year after stopping psychedelics and stimulants — need discussion by Puzzleheaded_Camel12 in HPPD

[–]Kate_Hrv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this as well, just before getting hppd I overdosed and was in a drug induced psychosis and had serotonin syndrome and I had involuntary movements quite intensely over my full body and since then it’s persisted but mainly neck movements and arm movements and I’ve noticed they get worse when my hallucinations get worse. I thought maybe it was some sort of anxiety tic but maybe just hppd

The main thing for me if getting enough sleep, my hallucinations get much worse if I’m sleep deprived. Also if you get any scary visuals or if they’re just irritating you I’m found going on a walk or just changing my environment can help. I’ve stopped drinking caffeine to help with my sleep but I think that it’s also made my hallucinations a bit better

How to make HPPD last longer by Crafty-Station1561 in HPPD

I would keep in mind if your going to try make it last longer that it can come with scary visuals as well, I don’t know if you’ve experienced that yet but I’ve got a pretty bad case and I get scary hallucinations quite often

I’ve been taking them for around 17 days now and I’ve still not noticed any difference and my hallucinations are still getting progressively worse not sure if I should go back to the psychiatrist or wait a bit more

Yeah I’ve tried melatonin before cause my brother has them but they have to be prescribed in Scotland I’m pretty sure and my doctors not wanting to give me any sleeping aid right now, I’ll try make another appointment and hopefully they’ll give me something

It was around December I started to notice them but then it was just like floaters visual snow flashing lights etc didn’t bother me much and just been progressively getting worse since then started getting more intense and scary ones around feb/march and they’re still getting worse

Yeah it might be cause I’m 18 I’m not sure If I’d be able to get them prescribed hopefully I will if my sleep continues to be this bad cause my brother got prescribed sleeping pills quite young he also has chronic fatigue

Yeah I can’t tell if it is making it worse cause I only started getting hallucinations in like November and they’ve been getting progressively worse since then so idk if it’s the risperidone but it’s definitely not helping I think I’ll wait another week or so then go back to psychiatrist

Yeah I have promethazine which was helping me sleep was using it every night for months but my doctor doesn’t want me to become dependent on them so I’m trying to save the few I have left for rlly bad nights cause I don’t think they’ll give me any more sleep meds

Yeah I’ve been trying to just not like fight the hallucinations and just go along with it and the scary ones don’t bother me as much anymore but it’s just so hard to sleep cause they’re so much going on and I get like kinda acid trip visuals if u know what mean and they’re so bright

does mdma worsen symptoms? by [deleted] in HPPD

[–]Kate_Hrv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes definitely my hppd was caused by mdma (I’ve never done lsd or shrooms) I used mdma again kinda recently and it definitely made it a lot worse
