For me it's hard to tell if I just have a vivid imagination or if I have HPPD.
To be honest if it is HPPD I can't say I mind.

sorry to bring up an old topic but wondering if you have had any effects now 2 years later ?
Yup, i still have them. Prominently. And no: i'm not counting days but have accepted the new me. So I've got visuals for 2 years straight now? Wow.
All the more it shows that to choose to be a tripper can affect you 24/7 for the rest of your life.
People want k00l drug5 so they take mushrooms, but don't appreciate the fact that it is one of the biggest decisions in your life, even if you just use them as an adjunct to watching Dragonball Z on the TV.
I've been psychedelicised permanently. Permanent mild visuals and increased psychodynamics. I've become a little bit high all the time.
Occasionally I still trip. It worsens nor eases the effects, and I have accepted it as being part of the rest of my life. Permafried... I'm glad its treshold-strength or it would be distracting to say the least.

I've had 4-6 month bouts... but with time, it has always gone away... and when HPPD is minor, it is sorta' nice.

I gained HPPD after massive usage of psychedelics. Mainly datura caused it more. But it was after mushrooms. But is something I enjoy. HPPD is zen.

i've been using hallucinogens for no longer than 2 years, and i would say i experience a mild case of HPPD also. up until about a week ago it had been mainly surface movements and objects breathing - nothing that bothered me at all.
however, i had recently been experiencing a sensation that comes out of the blue and feels as if my mind molecules disperse and float out into space. in this moment, i panic because it feels as if i've lost control of my body (and it has happened while driving), but luckily it only lasts a second. i can only assimilate this feeling with that of 'sponteneous astral projection', and as i had recently tried dmt for the first time i figured it may be the cause.
i seem to be the only one in my circle of friends who experiences this HPPD, but i hope this fades as other effects have in the past.

i almost gaurantee that you are now smoking weed wiccan seeker, and i almost gaurantee that if you lay off the weed for about a month things will calm down a lot, maybe not go completely away but calm down quite considerably. I used to think that i had HPPD but i've recently quit smoking weed to pass a drug test for a job, since i've quit i haven't had a HPPD experience since. I've also read that it can't be HPPD unless you are completely sober, not even high on mother natures friend-Mary Jane. Quit smoking for a while and see what happens

I use "drugs" about once in 1-3 months and a splash of beer every other week or so. Nope: its really HPPD, the trip doesnt wear off. It isnt psychologic either, such as flashbacks are.
Im used do the image in my mirror boiling and the gentle shapeshifting of everything i look at. I'd be shocked if my carpet wasnt subtly morphing at first glance.
You are right that cannabis is an overlooked factor. People forget its a minor psychedelic and its my experience that people who had intense trips tend to get trippier weed highs.
When I enteres the psychedelic era in 1993 I had read enough offline to know I was making a lifetime decision. People boast that psychedelics change you, but get terrified if they DO change. I've ceased worrying and have accepted that I live life on treshold and that I look at the world with Lysergic eyes. Hey, I'm a shaman, to me it has become a gift.

I hadn't realized that this thread was 2 years old. I'm happy for you that you are able to cope with this and that its very mild.
Any other noted effects other than visual distortions?

i have all ways thought it would be cool to have HPPD, but not full-blown tripping 24/7, just threshold like W_S.
i have heard stories of people knowing someone who knows someone who took a shitload of acid and now thinks he is a glass of orange juice; only afraid of being spilled or drank. i think that probably came from a movie, doesn't seem possible. has anyone actually met someone like this?
Wiccan Seeker, what do you think would happen to you if you did smoke some weed? i think i read a post where you said it gives you some sort of bad reaction, like allergies or something, but if it didn't, how do you think the effects of the THC would alter the "normal" effects you get now? surly more intense, what do you think?

The "Orange juice" story has never been confirmed... it is very likely, an old wive's tale.

Actually it's the risk of getting a second heart attack and dying with a joint between my fingers but yeah, I guess that counts as a bad reaction
Aside for me cringing and moaning, squirting nitroglycerin emergency medicine in my mouth, dialing Dutch 911 and hissing and snarling my home address into the telephone and clutching my chest whilst praying on the inside I would say my HPPD would probably intensify
Cannabis is a known trigger of flashbacks and it can cause hallucinatory states on its own, which makes it very probable that THC facilitates continued HPPD in potsmoking trippers. After I quit weed the HPPD went down some notches, so yes, very probable.

After the first time i tripped real good i can "give" myself hppd so to speak. I just need to concentrate for a second on an object and i can make it go trippy.
Some times at night before i sleep laying in bed ill notice the ceiling is flashing and pulsing around like it would be if i was dosed. None of this ever really bothers me or get in the way of everyday life. White walls and blue skys do it for me the worst.
I dont think i have and "affliction" or anything and i think my little visuals where always there. Just after taking a big dose am i able to notice them.
-------------------- This is the only time I really feel alive.

This is my first post, and I'd like to thank the creators and members of this site for making such a wide range of experiences available to people who don't necessarily know what to believe about mushrooms and so on.
I have had a similar experience to some of you in that I can 'will' patterns to move by staring at them, but it is quite a subtle effect. The odd part is, I haven't actually done psychedelics before. The effect reminds me of those wavy animations that warp your vision if you stare at them, which I have done many times. It seems to have 'come from' that. I think this is just something your brain 'learns' how to do, and can't ever forget. It's subtle, though, in fact I probably would never have noticed it if I hadn't been reading this thread. I assume when I ever get around to trying a hallucinogen, I'll be able to do it much easier.

Imagination is a tool all humans have access to.
I suspect imagination plays a part in the control of HPPD.
This is an old thread, but thanks for bumping it.

I only did shrooms once, but now I notice that colors in the world around me in general looking ALOT more vivid. The colors just 'jump' out at me more and I seem to notice patterns on walls that I have never noticed/seen before. When I look at my carpet, I get lines racing all over it. From every direction, but only over the carpet. Weird, but I don't mind these strange things.

Wait, so do you feel fucked at all? Is there any "What's going on"? If so i may want to stop now, if it's just sensory i really don't care at all.
