Top products from r/HPPD

You don't need to drink to be social; in fact, if the only way your friends can socialize is through alcohol, you need to make some different friends. As for your HPPD, this paper lists some medications, mainly benzos, that have been helpful for some people. My symptoms were pretty mild so I was able to get by with just hydroxyzine (a Benadryl-style antihistamine) and GABA.

Remember that YOUR BRAIN IS NOT PERMANENTLY INJURED OR DAMAGED. HPPD is nothing but abnormal electrical activity in your brain (remember that line in The Matrix about how reality is just electrical signals interpreted by your brain?), and this electrical activity can be influenced & controlled by medication, meditation etc. Which is why sedatives and antipsychotics are likely to help. Also look into neurofeedback, which is basically monitored meditation that helps you measure & modulate your brain waves. In my case my brain had stopped producing alpha waves (which have a calming/relaxing effect); after about 10 hour-long neurofeedback sessions my alpha was normal again and my symptoms were substantially better. If your symptoms are more severe you might need 20-40 sessions.

Seeing a cervical spine chiropractor can also help to make sure that your cervical spine isn't impinging upon your brain stem and inhibiting the flow of oxygen and nutrients that your brain needs to rebalance & repair itself (which, if you live in the Western world, it most likely is). And, of course, exercise, eat healthy, and take supplements to make sure that your body has a healthy supply of said nutrients (broad spectrum bloodwork and hair testing can help you to know what you need to focus on diet-wise) and the blood flow to deliver them to the brain.

Yeah I didn't do the full cleanse I just take this superfood powder from amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U47FDP6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

As far as supplements and interactions I generally didn't notice any increases except for when I first started Lion's mane I found I felt kinda weird. Also when I started taking the greens powder juice at first I felt like my symptoms would increase when I took it for maybe an hour or so idk why.

For noporn/nofap I'm seeing a girl currently so I do notice some increased effects shortly after sex but all the positive hormones from being with someone else seem to make me feel better overall/less relaxed or focusing on symptoms. It feels different after having a wank especially to porn I usually instantly feel post nut depression/anxiety + increased visuals. We all have needs though so you really gotta find a balance/what works for you.

Yep, had em in my head. They seem to be a bit better now. Only took 25 years (in my special case :) Acupressure works...use one of these on your neck temples and head, it helps release the pressure. https://www.amazon.com/Thailand-Thai-Foot-Massage-Stick/dp/B001S0JYS0/ref=sr_1_3_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1506315296&sr=1-3&keywords=foot+massage+stick

a lot of people have good results, and sometimes completely cure HPPD with Super Lion's Mane

the newest theory on HPPD involves serotonin receptor damage, 5ht2 receptor downregulation specifically. lions mane upregulates 5ht1a/5ht2a receptors, and ive seen subjective reports of people being cured in a matter of weeks.

im working on a treatment at the moment that involves lions mane and feverfew, which is a 5ht2a/5ht2b antagonist to aid in 5ht upregulation. if it works, il post here with all of the details, doses, and how effective it is. until then, super lions mane by itself is your best bet.

lolol.
