Psychadelics, Adderall, and HPPD
    #24008115 - 01/13/17 07:28 PM (7 years, 17 days ago)

I have mild HPPD. I seem to be able to keep it under control just like keeping money under control. You start to spend too much money, you spend a little less. My HPPD starts to flare up, I take a break from the psychs.

Recently I got a prescription for dextroamphetamine(Adderall). I have known I've had ADHD for a long time, but until the end of high school I never needed any medication for it because high school is lax enough that there was wiggle room in due dates and whatnot, so I managed. Now that college has started, and the work load is enormous, the Adderall has been very helpful, however, I notice that on the days I take it my HPPD gets aggravated. This aggravation seems to be back to baseline after a day or two without Adderall, but I have noticed that the more times I take it (have taken it probably 12 times now since getting prescribed) the less it seems to aggravate my HPPD. As if my brain is aware of what it does and is building a resistance to this particular effect of the drug.

I'm curious if anybody else has noticed this. Stimulants aggravating HPPD is nothing new, but have any of you who are in the same position as myself (I know there are a few of you out there.) notice this reduction of aggravation over time? and if you are more experienced with Adderall use than I, have you noticed anything new that popped up later in your use of the drug?


I wanted to finish this off by saying that I am at peace with my HPPD, it does not bother me any longer, in fact, it is fun and beautiful, but for those who are not in the same position, I would appreciate refraining from any unnecessary negativity about this. I like to keep my threads as positive as possible, because spreading love, and happiness is one of the best things we can do as humans.

Could you describe your hppd symptoms?

Maybe it's just playing on your delusional/psychosis

I get mild to moderate visuals. Mainly objects breathing/warping slightly, and surfaces appear to flow or shift. If I do lysergamides, they tend to give me more after images the following couple of weeks. The Adderall only seems to amplify the shifting/breathing/warping effect, in fact, it tends to reduce the after images while it is in effect. I have no psychological symptoms related to my HPPD, the symptoms are purely visual.

I don't mean to be rude with this next bit, just informative. If you don't know, HPPD is not the same as psychosis, or delusional hallucinations. People with HPPD are almost always in their right mind (rarely DP/DR sets in, which still isn't psychosis.) and are always fully aware that what they're seeing is simply a result of the way their brain is interpreting the world. I also have no family history of any psychosis, schizophrenia, or any other major mental illnesses as far as can be traced back.

As a stranger on the internet, I understand that it is impossible to know what a person is actually like, but I assure you, I am not delusional or psychotic.

Unless you are referring to Dexedrine induced delusions/hallucinations, which are very real under the correct circumstances, those being, relatively heavy doses of Adderall, combined with some degree of sleep deprivation. In which case I apologize for my misunderstanding, however, that would still not apply to me, as I only take 30mg no more than twice a week and get plenty of sleep.

Sometimes I'll take a 10mg addie and break off like a little less than a quarter of it and it knocks me right out. But if I take a whole one I'm in hyperdrive. I don't get it. I'm not suggesting you do this I'm just saying that's what happens to me.

That's interesting. Dextroamphetamine releases dopamine and norepiniphrine, which are both stimulating to the brain, giving it, its characteristic effects, that's interesting that a low dose should knock you out? Does it make you tired, or does it simply quiet your mind, allowing you to fall asleep more easily?

I would be interested to try that some night when I won't have to wake up early the next morning.

I think you may have hit nail on the head there. It just makes the chaos in my head go away for a little bit

yeah. It's funny how introducing a CNS stimulant quiets down thoughts in the brain. The main reason that it helps people with ADD/ADHD focus.
