Visual Snow Syndrome/HPPD Awareness!
Hey, I know many people from here come from Tumblr (myself included as I've been battling bipolar disorder since I was 12), and I'd love if people could raise awareness for a syndrome triggered by stress, genetics orcommon substances like weed or MDMA. It's called visual snow, and it consists of a myriad of visual and auditory disturbances, and organic anxiety, depression and depersonalization. There is no currently available cure and both neurologists and psychiatrists aren't able to treat it.
We have a fundraiser, and just yesterday two anonymous organizations raised 10,000 dollars for research (which is fucking GREAT news).
I'd love it if people here could raise awareness about this issue in a karmic/altruistic manner.
How life's like with visual snow:

Thanks for your patience!
If you have any questions feel free to ask!
Thank you so much for this post! :) I've had visual snow foralmost my whole entire life, and I really lovethe fact that people are trying to raise awareness for this condition.
We're everywhere but we're not organized enough to make our voice heard.
I'm sharing this link around:https://goo.gl/JlT8O6
It has the same text I posted here but it has Google Analytics so we can know how often people are sharing it from specific countries and how much interest there is for research.
I'd love for people that are interested to share the link around on social media. Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter, even sites like Omegle or Chatroulette.
A cure is just around the corner if we're loud enough.
