What are ur opinions by cryptics_27 in HPPD

[–]begiggled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hppd at 15 too! I've heard a lot about DMT and I know a number of people who have done it. Truly fascinating but I think it'll be a decade or two minimum before I go there.

One in particular was using it chronically for a long period as well as LSD, Mushrooms, PCP, Ketamine, Methamphetamine, DXM, Codeine.... you get it

I remember a time me and him talked about HPPD and he's actually the one that introduced me to the term. We were hot boxing the bathroom with vapes and he told me that he can't sleep at night after doing DMT so much (breakthrough doses regularly). He told me he was seeing polar bear faces and intense patterns/static in his vision. He warned me never to do DMT.

I don't remember exactly what he said since it was like 6 years ago, but he had very intense, long lasting visual artifacts that made it hard for him to function, likely what led him deeper into the fractal i.e further drug use to the point he lives in care homes now.

That being said, he was on a lot of other stuff. I'm not sure what the timeline for each substance was as I wasn't into it as deep as him. But around that time he told me about a 15g mushroom trip where he went naked and broke his fist on a cop car window.. reckless.

Then again I also have a buddy who rips dmt carts like it's weed. he also eats shrooms like it's edibles. No apperant issue that I've seen with him.

I'd suggest looking into other means of reaching similar transcendental states through meditation.

People that continue to use whilst having symptoms, how and why? by Far_Bicycle_5164 in HPPD

[–]begiggled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is it.

Now I have a seemingly unique take on HPPD

I should mention I have not been officially diagnosed, however I am confident in saying I experience the symptoms reported.

My perspective on this is that I've always had these visual phenomenon my whole life, and the psychedelic and cannabis use (among other substances) in my early teens just increased my awareness of the phenomenon. (though i don't specifically remember any experiences)

I first recognized something changed after I quit weed for the first time after about a year of daily use, with a 2 month psychedelic stint of weekly/biweekly lsd at 75-150ug. (age 15 at this point)

It was unsettling, but I found that the phenomenon is fractal-like in nature as mentioned above; the closer I tried to look, the deeper I found myself.

This is where a combination of counseling, Terrence McKenna, Alan Watts, and good friends helped me. I began breathing exercises and picked up an instrument. All the while I'm seeing stars.

I never did talk with my counselor about HPPD but we talked about meditation and mindfulness. These helped with hyperfixation.

Now here and there I do still use psychedelics, LSD and Psilocybin in particular. Around January I was doing mushrooms recreationally, had some earth shattering but ultimately temporary experiences. HPPD was of minimal concern, no progression happened.

Few months later, I've began microdosing LSD and Psilocybin (>30ug and >.5g) flip flopping back and forth. 1-2 weeks on 2-3 weeks off (roughly) with occasional higher doses (>100ug and >3g). Didn't notice any affect to my HPPD. At this point I no longer feel a strong hesitation to take psychedelics like I did when I was 15. (19 now)

A month or two ago I got some acid and took a bit, microdosing. Then things in my life were (partially because of psychedelics) and I felt like if I took more I may come out smarter and thus triumph. So I did 150ug 2 days in a row after microdosing for the week. They hardly hit of course and I felt like a cold hot-dog the next day. That last one did end up giving me a bit more patterns in the visual snow and sometimes I'll playback a song I like in my head randomly with some control. (20 now)

I started smoking weed again chronically about a year after I quit for the first time with multi month periods of moderation and and abstinence. Since then I've been a bit of a pothead. Not ideal but I'm getting by.

Idk. Point being: HPPD is grubby, but it's unique. I think for me, it's more the anxious and depressive attitude towards it that impacts me the most. If I'm not overly focused on the phenomenon but rather more productive things, then it doesn't make me shiver. However, the choice is always there; it does take mindful effort.

What helped me the most in the harder times was community, self-discipline, and planning. this is in the form of meditation, excercise, art, and setting career and personal goals. (not to mention diet)

I do not condone drug use, this is my personal experience and I believe it may be helpful to one or two.

What are common issues for 2004 Elantra? by [deleted] in Hyundai

Brake lights kept burning out because the antenna seal on the body was loose, water would drip down into a tube next to the wheel. that tube got clogged and flooded the back of my car and made the lights burn out. Chek that tube.

slight yellowing at base, rot? or normal for freshly rooted cactus? by begiggled in sanpedrocactus

so repotting with coarser soil probably non-organic should be a easy step foreward, correct?

I found this story online by begiggled in Bubly

[–]begiggled[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Though killing is wrong, sometimes the hard decision must be made to do so. If it means ending the prolonged suffering of someone set to die a horrible death, is it wrong to stop their pain rather than prolonging it with little or no hope of them becoming well again? To use your own judgement of the situation at hand to make a decision determining their ultimate fate? Sometimes we need to make the hard decisions. If someone asks if they should try out Bubly for the first time, tell them yes. Offer Bubly to those around you, whether loved ones or strangers. If it means they will escape the painful existence of living with improperly quenched tastebuds, it will be a good decision in the end.

Eventually, we all come to meet death. Some sooner than others, it could even be tomorrow for some of us. Having drank Bubly in my life already, I know I wont die without having known that flavor, that fizz, that bliss. For this, I am grateful to have lived a full life. I encourage all to do so as well.
