Lasting "trippiness"

I have been using shrooms quite a lot the past couple months, and I have also rolled a couple more times than I should have too. But ever since I took shrooms (been about 3 weeks since my last trip) I have visuals whenever I smoke weed. But it kind of makes me think of mdma visuals more. Like the colorful extreme rave type visuals.

I looked at my wall and saw a tear in the wall rip open into a twisty psychedelic type thing. And I have been seeing colors every time I smoke. If it is dark, even barely dark, I see colors all over everything. Like if I was too look on the floor, It could look like a green circle with a blue spinning whirlpool. Its like someone is coloring the ground around me. Also I have a very shroomish vibe after smoking. I looked at the fireplace and it didnt look like my fireplace, it looked like I had never seen it and it was trippy. What do you think could have caused this to happen? And should I be concerned?
 
No, don't be concerned. Read up on HPPD (Hallucination Persisting Perception Disorder). Now, while its just starting, be sure not to let it bother you or it will get very intense. If you just accept it and let it alone it'll go away with time.
 
I think I do have HPPD actually. I show every symptom. The other night I tossed my blackberry up in the air and I realized that I have bad tracers also, because I saw afterimages for about 1 second of everywhere the screen went. When I look at the floor, it looks grainy a little bit. Although I don't really mind, it can be kind of entertaining.

But I also read "difficulty distinguishing between colors, apparent shifts in the hue of a given item." I have seen 1 thing look a different color to me than it should have been, sober. When I smoke weed and Roll, It feels very psychadelic. Almost like im taking 1g of shrooms with everything I do. And the ground will literally change to 100s of different colors. This is supposed to be bad, but I kind of like the added trip like feeling I get with everything. But is it ok to be OK with this?

first off, you probably shouldn't get it into your head that this is a "bad" thing. hopefully you're experienced enough to know where that would end up.

after progressive frequent psychedelic use this can definitely happen.
since you've been using psychedelics its a lot easier to distinguish the psychedelic qualities in weed, and some times this can make someone feel uncomfortable if they don't understand it.

keep a positive mindset about it, the more comfortable you are with it, the quicker it will dissipate
 
Well I don't see it as a bad thing. I like how my weed highs are now. So much more psychedelic and trippy!
 
Its ok to feel ok. There's no brain damage (as far as we know) and it tends to go away with time (mine gets worse for some reason, haha). I'd say definitly try to force yourself to be okay with it!

I also too have HPPD and like someone said above me if you let it get to you it will get extremely intense I've had it happen before. One time at a friends house I was looking at some blinds and they seemed to morph, melt, whirl around in somewhat of a pattern.

As I began to somewhat panic and let it get to me it gradualy got worse. Including light bulbs growing flower patterns on the couch growing and things clearly and distinctly breathing. It become very intense almost like a solid 1.5 gram shroom trip.

I then grabbed my nintendo DS and play pokemon to try and keep my mind off of it. It helped but I couldn't figure out why that was all going on. The next time I smoked weed I knew that i was going to endure another trippy weed experiance so I just took the rains and just forgot about it that is the only way to go!
 
I've suffered with HPPD for years and yes after the first few months it gets better and it doesn't bother you.

Think of yourself as an evolved person with a heightened perception of everything around you. You want to see everything logically and to come to terms with what you might see or feel.

take for instance OOBEs (out of body experiences) i used to have these quite a lot on high dose mushrooms. Every time i smoked weed days or weeks later i would have another one. it'd freak me out. peoples voices around me would become distant as i flew off out of my body, it's just become quiet.

i'd come back to my body and people would ask what was wrong with me.

i'd just say "woah" or "something trippy just happened"

there is much more to HPPD than visuals which are just a byproduct of you being aware of things you never saw before, like floaters on your eye, or tiny blood vessels pumping blood around your eyes.

Reassure yourself that these things happen whether or not you or anyone else is aware of them, but now that you are aware of them don't worry if you cannot find a logical explaination for them.

For my OOBEs i decided it was me remembering exactly how to enter that experience and trying to recreate it as best i could with what i had (weed)

your mind will want to do that a lot over the coming weeks. you'll want to remember and experience things as you did when you were tripping, and soon you will get bored trying and no longer be able to do it.

Some things will stay with you. just learn to appreciate them and not get caught up thinking about them, just as before you took mushies your body had learnt to become unaware of these things it will do so again if you ignore them or just get very drunk =D

what it is caused by you might not be able to explain or anyone explain to you logically, but what it gives you is that profound knowledge that these things are happening all the time just that you never really paid much attention to them.
 
like everyone else has said it all comes down to the perception of the symptoms and your mindset about them.
sort of like the psychedelic experience IMO.

if you ask me tripping on weed sounds sick as hell.
it sounds like you have a good mindset, and itll probably dissipate anyway. enjoy it while it lasts. :)
 
Did you tend to go for high doses? Am I going for low doses?
Your HPPD sounds close to some of my peaks in terms of visuals...


I definitely have noticed when i've taken 2C's recently, when i'm tired or stoned, patterned walls start to shimmer.... But that's really the extent of it...

I have done lots of trips around 1.5-3g, and a few recently around 3.5-6g.

And I think It might have started because of a hippyflip I did recently. I did it alone, (I am very comfortable tripping alone) but it was my fault that i didn't hide the mushies from myself haha. I ate 3.5g at 1st, and I was already trippin really hard (my visuals were already becoming intense) after only 20 minutes which has never happened to me, so for some stupid idiotic reason on my part, I ate 2 more grams!8) I wish I knew why I did! But 30 mins later I was tripping harder than ever before, and I have hippyflipped on 2.5 and 1 tab before, so I decided to take 2 tabs, and then 1 an hour later since my shroom trip peak times have A LOT to do with dose. That was definitely an intense experience. I probably would've been surprised if didn't get HPPD :\ Also bad idea getting stuck in front of a mirror on a strong hippyflip with trance music 8o I must have stood there for 5 hours (no time existed to me at all, it was about 5 mins) blinking watching my whole body constantly change into awesome different shapes haha

Being sleep deprived defiently pulls out the trippyness of the HPPD

I KNOW!!! I seriously found that out last night. I smoked some dank ass weed, only a few hits. I had to leave and go home after about 15 mins. I was in my room listening to "mushrooms" by KMK, and in the corner of my room was probably about a 3 foot wide 3d trippy green dragon head moving its mouth to the words in the song. I kept seeing shadows jump away from my peripheral, and in the mirror I definately felt a sense that I was tripping on shrooms. Also walls were breathing and things kept moving very slow in a bending kinda way. I hadn't slept for about 40 hours prior.
 
lol its funny when I was younger - about 17 or 18 I bought one of those grow kits and grew a whole box of shrooms, being young and niave I thought "ah these are homegrown I doubt they will have much effect" so I ate all of them! Looking at what people say on here about 1.5g etc and judging by my knowlege of how mucg stuff weights I must have had at least 15-20g?

At the time I didnt realise it was a lot but I did have a pretty bad trip and was completely fooked! Also after that I had recurring visuals for about 6 months after maybe more...
 
I think hangovers give my hppd a kick start. Especially smoking weed on a hangover, that's actually how I got my first ever visuals when I was 15 or something. Last night sleep deprivation and what would have been a hangover + a bit of weed gave me strange sensations in my mouth and mild visuals. Went to bed, found myself going into a lucid dream, meeting random people I've never seen before like usually do in lucid dreams, and then a lot of hyper dimensonal shit I can't explain.

Anyway, the point is, it's chill! You have ultimate perception, or some chemical imbalance in the brain.. I reckon it's the first one though.
 
yah I know what you mean about hangovers. Idk if this has anything to do with HPPD, but last night I was having a dream, and it was a normal dream pretty much, then I saw a mirror and I swear I started tripping balls SOOO hard in my dream, and I woke up dissociated, like it was like I had an OOBE then I finally got back to my body and woke up. It was really intense8o! Idk where that came from8)
