HPPD Awareness Movement

Raising awareness for a poorly understood perception condition primarily caused by hallucinogenic use.

I honestly don't know how I got through the first year. Very stressful on me, barely 17 and trying to take in this madness alone -- Uncertainty defined the rest of my teenage years. But, still here; it should say something that I'm still here ♥️

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

I know there's people that can relate to this. I'm now realizing something else, and feeling indifferent looking back at ten dragging years of #HPPD

Then again, that's a decade I've survived -- found a way to get through the most difficult days and adapt to change. Keep moving.

When I first realized I had this as a teenager, I had to find out myself. Not a single doctor or specialist could tell me what was wrong. There was very little information on the internet at the time, and what I did see scared me. I had no one to talk to about this.

#HPPD people!!
I just got word of a research survey from @EdPrideaux and @PerceptionFdn!
This is the most in-depth research questionnaire on HPPD and post-drug visual changes! This is imperative to getting better numbers; understanding the complexeties of HPPD!

Curious detail in a paper on Visual Snow Syndrome, of which HPPD has been variously deemed a subtype. Some interpret their 'HPPD' - as with voice-hearing and visions in the traditional psychosis spectrum - as being of mystical origin. The same can apply to VSS!

@memento_morix3 @Trulieve @curaleaffl Steer clear. At least from True Leave.

a young woman died under their supervision in January and they've been covering up the story since. They blamed the victim and never spoke to their family, or even helping with funeral costs. Evil. Unethical.

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

@LakotaDelhaye @Trulieve @rivers_kim Do it. Stand up to this unethical company. Similar activities happening with them in Florida. They need to be held accountable.

Do it.

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

@Snap_Snap22 @TheYoungJurks I think the fact it mentions it was a Trulieve product paints a good picture of who they were falsifying results for. @TheYoungJurks has been doing excellent work. Stop defending a bad business.

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

@Puff_Daddy_Jr Not sure about Trulieve... The story of them covering up a workers death and blaming it on them in #Massachusetts is blowing up in front of us.

@DrMcFillin Unfortunately there’s a misconception that antidepressants are harmless, and that you can just come off them if the side effects get too much. This is not the case. My side effects never went away and I’ve been off them for 2 years

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

The future is bright.

Hang in there.

[Perception Restoration Foundation @PerceptionFdn]

The HPPD issue has come a long way. From no seat at the table and stigma to serious talks at one of the world's best research universities.

Finally, people are starting to open up to these drugs' serious risks.

There's still so far to go, though. We're just getting started.

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

This is some of the best independent research I've seen into the cause(s) and treatments regarding #HPPD

@samuelstancl has done incredible work, delivering a comprehensive review of the most prominent theories and covering the complexities of HPPD.

@impboy @fullydavid @erik_davis That's me! Much love.

[David Fuller @fullydavid]

@erik_davis It's weird. There's a huge and active Facebook group with thousands of members and I've seen almost no coverage of it

[HPPD Awareness Movement @HPPDawareness]

#HPPD, despite the name, doesn't have to be drug-induced.
Symptoms likely share a common pathophysiology with #Migraine.
I know migraineurs who only see trails before an episode. Treatment for HPPD is out there now, its just not being recognized.

How come no-one is talking about HPPD (hallucinogen persisting perception disorder). It's a real thing, not a DNA scramble scare story. A friend of mine shroomed for two years -- ulp! Here's the skinny: https://t.co/nVFmLOaoXK

Whether dopamine triggers or reflects the appetite to mate has been unclear. Until now. Turns out that dopamine triggers desire to mate. Suppression of the same dopamine neurons triggers abstinence. Powerful stuff (dopamine). https://t.co/tvPMPwqgBk
