Curious, how many of you have...

1) developed HPPD
2) given yourself Serotonin Syndrome
3) had a psychotic episode
4) suffered any other physical/psychological/emotional traumas, & if so, what was the complication

...of course, resultant from tripping/rolling, &, from what?

 

1) not too bad though
3) yes but not while on a particular substance, so it may fit under your category of 4.
I used 5- me0 dmt, Nitrous, ketamine, salvia, LSD, weed and ecstasy in a 2 month period leading to a 'schizoaffective break.' That is the order of psychedelics that I think effected me most but I guess saying all of them may be more accurate.

Edit: Should mention alcohol, oxycontin and Xanax were used in this timeframe as well.

 

same...
though 1) I don't know if it's just me or HPPD
3) three separate occasions, once induced by over 1/2 oz. Shrooms, once after just one hit of acid too many during a two year binge on it (way over two sheets), I guess meth was involved in that though too. The last one was the 2ci + 4-aco-dmt fuck-up I mentioned.

None had lasting effects except the acid/meth binge that ended with several delusional months, non-stop insomnia, & a weird kind of OCD, the latter two come & go off & on...no delusions since I was a punk teen though.

I dunno, psychs are risky but way worth the payoff/benefits.

 

i may have slight HPPD. influenced IMO by 2ce mostly. maybe acid or weed, and various other psychedelics that i've used once or twice.

 

never had any serious problems. but i usually go super hard a couple weekends out of they year and the rest of the time i just chill and smoke.

 

I'm most interested in HPPD, I read a report recently that indicated that though it's seldom diagnosed (& it is classed as a mental disorder in the DSM IV), it's suspected to be a much, much larger issue basically kept secret by those with it. I think PEAs cause it more than trypts, dunno why, just a gut feeling. Anyway... All the recent chatter about it here got me curious. I think I've had it mildly for like 17 yrs & just always thought it was part of my supposed Bipolar II diagnosis (supposed, I say, because no two docs agree I have it, fucking stupid doctors)... At any rate, stats on HPPD are low, but it's theorized many peeps have it in hiding.

 

I basically just see trails in lights and sort of a softening of my vision at moments. When I heard of hppd initially I thought it was more like constantly seeing walls breath, significant distortions, etc. I don't have that.

 

I do see walls breathe, carpets swirl, & a little bit of what you said. Apparently, it affects everyone differently.

 

Ill refrain from some of those combos then

 

lol, mine has been ongoing (if I have it) for 17 years... Long before I'd become acquainted with RCs. Yeah, I think
mescaline aside that PEAs cause it more, but in my case it was too much acid & meth as a teen (stims can cause it too).

EDIT: If I do?! Of course I do, who am I
bullshitting, heh?! It's just undiagnosed
(like most cases)... You do get used to it
over time & it eventually becomes less a nuisance & just sort of fades into everyday life. Basically, in time you adjust & it doesn't bother you much.

But hey, which combos? I've done a myriad, lol.

 

I've done my fair share, most involving ecstasy

 

Say, curious, do you find x & M1 to only have superficial resemblences like I do? M1 is one of the only caths I like much anymore, but it doesn't seem to have quite the empathetic push x does IMO.

 

I don't find m1 to have the empathogenic push of E nor do I find the sensitivity to music and lights either.

 

I guess I'm normal in that regard then... Still, M1 *is* inexplicably fun, more speedy, but it's not that that draws me to it, I dunno, I can't quite put a finger on why I like it, but yeah, it's no x (which I prefer).

 

I tend to take lower doses, I prefer mephedrone if im going for speedy effects.

 

I am taking a long break from meph. A little bit back I was taking a lot of it intranasally with 5-MeO-DALT & the burn & nasty taste of those put me off that shite for a time... I do take high doses of M1; I'm coming down off of 635mg M1
+ 30mg 2C-E now in fact, & I dunno why, but
for some reason I remain very cohesive & collected on this combo, even after snorting that much over a period of two intervals with each. Strangely, too, 2C-E doesn't make me nauseous or crampy insufflated, only when done oral... In fact, nasally no 2C-x makes me upset like with most people.

 

I think I have a mild form of hppd. actually i'm not sure exactly how mild it is, I guess that is relative and since there isn't a lot of information on case studies its impossible to compare my case to someone else's. But I see light trails all the time coming from car headlights and tail lights. I actually can't really see to drive at night because of it. I also see a glow around red and green lights and street lights always take on a weird glow.

Sometimes when I drink, and I have no idea why alcohol triggers it, it gets worse. I was drunk once and talking to someone who was being very expressive with their arms and everytime their arm would flail up and go past the line of vision where the ceiling light met my eye I would see a very large, bright trail of light that was so pervasive it blocked everything else in my line of vision out.

I haven't even tripped that much compared to other people so I think I must just be sensitive to hallucinogens..err i should say mushrooms since i don't really do any other hallucinogens. I started permanently seeing the glow around green lights after the first time I ever tripped

 

the very first time, really? Wow. What did you trip on, & how much & how long did it itself have effects for?

 

I have never suffered from any of those but my BF acquired major HPPD after doing 2CB. He has constant tracers and CEV's and every so often full blown hallucinations.

 

Melai: Yah alcohol occassionally gave me strange effects reminiscent of tripping as well.
