KeepFighting Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi folks Had HPPD 21 years after taking acid 4 times. Only started learning about HPPD over the last few years. Anyway I might be preaching to the converted here, but just wanted to let people know I've been doing the old "Dry January" - completely cutting out alcohol - and it's had a really noticeable positive effect. Reduction in some visuals and feel much more clear-headed, balanced and happy. Sleeping much better too, and a bit less snow. I cut out drugs and smoking years ago but have always drunk alcohol (mostly only at weekends, but in fairly large amounts). I didn't think it had much of a negative effect, but maybe I was wrong. I'm not going alcohol free for good, as To be honest I use it too relax, as a bit of an escape (I don't like to use the word crutch, but maybe that's what it is). But this has certainly made me think about how much I drink, and the potentially harmful effect it has on the brain. I can recommend having a break! Hope everyone's well and things are looking good for 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay1 Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I did the same (well, not quite dry, but 2-3 pints per week)... Certainly feel better for it and sleeping well too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
