			<link>http://thosewithvisualsnow.yuku.com/topic/5374/t/my-story-and-what-helped-me.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone.  I would first like to start by telling my story about visual snow.  I was about 14 when i had my first encounter with all of this.  I smoked some
marijuana laced with pcp.  I didn&#39;t know what was in it or that it would affect me the way it did.  All i know is that the high i got from it was something
that i would never wish upon my worst enemy and the aftermath was even worse.  It triggered a very long ( and by long i mean years ) hallucination that changed
everything about... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Binaural Beats are a type of sound therapy that use synchronised sound waves to sort of direct your brain. its hard to explain, but theres plenty of articles
about them. ive found that they pretty much completely cure my tinnitus and make my VS somehow different... not sure if its better or worse. my tinnitus comes
back after a few hours, but its nice to have a few hours without it. theres different frequencies which are said to do different things. you can find some on
youtube to listen to,... ]]></description>

			<link>http://thosewithvisualsnow.yuku.com/topic/5285/t/Clonazepam-made-it-worse.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone,
<br>
<br>
My VS is drug and drink related so maybe thats why Clonazepam had this effect.
<br>
<br>
I was started on 0.5 gm a day then every week went up by 0.5 till I got to 4 or 5 gm, when I reached this there was no improvements so I came down slowly,
however as I finshed the drug my eyesight became notiably worse in the same way it would worsen if I had taken something like weed, drink etc.

			<description><![CDATA[ I am suffering from low back pains for quite a long time until I came across PhoneConsultation.com , I really find them of great help especially on my
situation. The website offers a face to face doctor visit and I find it a way forward. Has any one tried them?  I think Health Industry has really evolved from
the old school lining up on doctor&#39;s visits to over the net arrangements. This is really a great progress indeed! <img... ]]></description>

			<link>http://thosewithvisualsnow.yuku.com/topic/5167/t/Nucleus-CMP-Forte.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Have been taking this fancy-named medication for half a month. The first 3-4 days it seemed to wipe out the <span style="font-weight: bold;">dreaded tongue
tingling</span>, but my &quot;snowy&quot; tongue returned. Actually, even though my tongue snow is almost 24/7, I had 3-4 good days about a month ago, before
taking this new medication, so the initial tickling drop may be just coincidence...
<br>
<br>
Anyway, I&#39;ll keep taking it for 1.5 months more and let you know any changes.

people&#39;s point of view, things might work for others and others not, this is a sharing topic <strong><u>about things to avoid.

I turn off auto-playing of flash animations on my web browser firefox with flash block as I find that makes the internet more comfortable.

			<description><![CDATA[ For me, Xanax improves my symptoms a great deal, by at least 50%. I haven&#39;t heard of it helping anyone else, unfortunately, though Klonopin is a common
treatment for HPPD, and it is in the same class of drug as Xanax (benzodiazepine). I take 4mg/day, of the extended release version.

of the board.

This is suggestions for coping with a life long illness, so don&#39;t lecture and don&#39;t critize other people&#39;s coping techniques please or turn this
into a debate about whether the coping technique will work for you. This is for everyone to say what works for them as coping skills not cures, so that we can
