Hallucinogenic Post Perception Disorder means that my brain works differently for long periods of time after taking mushrooms. I see mild negative afterimages for over 30 seconds after closing my eyes or looking at a blank wall. I'm pretty sure that I'm also semi-retarded as a result of the disorder, I feel much slower than I remember being before shrooms. It gets worse when I'm tired, and worse every time I shroom. (last weekend was the last time, no worries.) How long should I expect it to last for?

How long does HPPD last on average?
Verified answer
Many people report that their HPPD eventually gets better or completely disappears over the course of weeks, months, or years. Other subjects have had it for 10 years or longer. Generally, medically diagnosed HPPD seems to last at least a couple of years.
HPPD is a serious long-term illness and there is a chance it may not ever go away. Many subjects have no choice but to learn to live with it. If you have HPPD you should seriously consider joining an online community to discuss the medical issues and talk to others about their experiences in dealing with it. You may also want to consider medical help although results are mixed.
