brake Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25392249 The full version of this article is not free. I think it's interesting that many of the patients with schizophrenia and HPPD can differentiate between their psychotic symptoms and HPPD symptoms. 1 Link to comment
mgrade Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Sounds like an unsure conclusion in that study. They should test people with only hppd and see if some of the symptoms jibe. Link to comment
mgrade Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I wonder how they tested this. I also wonder if they know the genes that give a predisposition to schizophrenia, aided by the use of hallucinogens into an actual schizo disorder. Link to comment
mgrade Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Don't mean to tack on another study but this is vaguely related. fitchlab.com/FitchLabBin/AnimalModelsDownloads/Hida.etal.2013.pdf 1 Link to comment

VisualDude Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25392249 The full version of this article is not free. I think it's interesting that many of the patients with schizophrenia and HPPD can differentiate between their psychotic symptoms and HPPD symptoms. This is significant. How to medically treat could be problematic. First, if any are 'dopamine-responsive', they can't be treated that way without making the dillusions worse. (Don't worry Merkan, if you were schizophrenic, your Sinemet would have you over the edge). Second, how many of these suffer schizophrenia from drug use? Or have been made worse from the meds to treat psychosis? Third, for those not showing any relationship between HPPD and dopamine, these would provide a study group that filters out the ~30-40% dopamine responders (tolcapone + sinamet) Link to comment
Shadowplay Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 So you are saying that there are individuals with both schizophrenia and HPPD? Then I'm not going to whine no more. 2 Link to comment
