Hello! I am somewhat new to the world of vs, though, my symptoms appear to be exactly what many others on this site describe. I was wondering if anybody has
had any success in reducing the stress related to the condition, or reducing the symptoms themselves, through any non-drug related therapies?
Therapy?

well, if you've not had VS for long, let me tell you... the initial shock of having yer vision full of static is the most stressful part. you have to learn
to live with it. once you are used to it, it's... almost tolerable.
but then there's some odd new symptoms that will come out of nowhere, scare the crap out of you, then leave to never be seen again.

I question everything. i will question this snow, i will ask it what it wants, i will ask it why it's here, and ill ask it when it plans to leave. so far it has declined to answer. when it does.... i may make a mess on myself. |

Thanks for the reply! If what I have is VS, which is my best guess, then I am being presented with the most stressful situation you have mentioned.

Well, in terms of non-drug-related therapies, some people have claimed that certain stress-relieving relaxation technique type things have reduced their VS by
some moderate extent. Also some dietry things have been suggested, like blueberries and magnesium salts - though I never gained any benefit from OD'ing on
salty berries.
Er, there are also various vitamin supplements that have helped some people too...certain types of magnesium supplement, things containing lots of vitamin B12...er, all sorts of weird things have helped isolated and small numbers of people. Unfortunately what works for one person often does not for most others. |

Hi and welcome!
Since no one else has said this yet. Some people are not stressed about their VS because they like it. It is rare for people to reporting liking their VS on this message board but still worth mentioning. People (my self included) have made post to this board, which explain a little about this different perspective on VS. Maybe these post are worth reading if your interested, though they are generally pretty vague and the threads seem to get side tracked easily. Worth reading if your new to the world of VS.
