Visual Snow and Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder are debilitating conditions. The diseases live in the brain where wires are crossed when it comes to deciphering visual data. HPPD is brought on by the use of hallucinogenic drugs while Visual Snow appears out of nowhere. The Neurosensory and Neuroregnerative Research Foundation has chosen to focus on these two interrelated conditions in order to alleviate the needless suffering of a voiceless pool of patients.
VS and HPPD have likely been around for decades, if not longer. But the diseases are relative newcomers to the medical field. This means that doctors and researchers may not even be aware of the conditions. VS and HPPD patients are often misdiagnosed and tend to spend a lot of money while searching for answers. This common goose chase experienced by VS and HPPD patients has inspired us here at the NNRF to educate the medical community. As education about VS and HPPD spreads amongst medical professionals, more patients will be diagnosed correctly the first time.
However, our mission does not stop there. The NNRF is a collective of business professionals, medical researchers and doctors. Your donations help to fuel the engine that we hope will cure VS and HPPD. Our collective of highly trained professionals is hard at work researching for a viable treatment and cure for these diseases. But a donation is not the only way you can help.
Register for our newsletter to get updates about the NNRF, the strides we are making toward a treatment and cure, and to provide the NNRF with helpful data. You’ll be emailed with optional surveys and questionnaires that will help our doctors and researchers better understand these diseases. The data will go a long way in our quest to find a treatment and cure. You can also read about the diseases, keep up with our news feed, put your pin in our disease maps and connect with others on our forum.
We are proud to present to you our informative website and look forward to working with this community in order to unravel the mysteries surrounding VS and HPPD.
Hello i took the first trip of lsd it was one paper.Trip took about twenty hours,and two days ago after i took it i felt very depressed and freak out, the mood changed the face like freeze in one mood and it difficult to change. I felt like i’m leaving my body,it was really scary trip. Sometimes have visuals problems but they are not so very strong. Now i have panic atacks, felling depressed,anxious,sometimes hearing strange voices, or music.
It’s probably a good idea for you to make an appointment with a physician before self diagnosing but if I were you, I’d bring some HPPD literature in case the physician you see is unfamiliar with the condition. Best of luck and don’t lose hope. It gets better with time if you abstain from using drugs. You may make a total recovery.
Jonas,
I suggest you learn as much as you can about HPPD by going through the various pages on this website.
Keep in mind you stand a strong chance of a full recovery but this cannot be guaranteed.
If things get worse please seek the help of a medical professional by someone who is knowledgeable about HPPD.
Best of luck
Hi. Thank you for your work. I developped very mild Hppd recebtly (a month ago), but I only have 2 symptoms: mild trails with moving objects, and some anxiety. Luckily, I have been fighting Tinnitus for 8 years and I won this battle in the sense that I’m no longer depressed or anxious about it, it took time to adapt but I think I acquired skills that can be used to fight hppd too. Is having only 2 symptoms a good sign for a future recovery/habituation? I see most sufferers talk about DP/DR, visual snow, starbursting, etc… Do I have better chances of recovery? Thank you again!
Hi Jeremy,
I would say for the most part you’re doing good but as this comes from a patient like yourself, the best way to get an answer is to allow time heal you or see a medical professional who is knowledgeable about HPPD.
Good Luck
