I took the course and am still atruggling but it gives me hope that i will eventually habituate to it. Cheers i hope you are able to move on. Youve done a lot of good work.

Ignoring it is not a "cure" but it does work. Many in the thick of it will not believe it, but the reality is if you just allow yourself to not care, to ignore it, your brain removes it. You can think about it again and it comes back but then at that point you knew that you weren't noticing it before and that will happen again. Its VERY much an issue that is excessively pronounced the more thought you put towards it. You will think "its impossible for me to not see this, ignoring it can't work". But it does. Don't test your vision, don't check if its better or worse, don't read up on it, don't look for the next "cure", just stop caring about it and other things take up residence in your mind and you'll have periods of time that get longer and longer where you realize you weren't thinking about it at all and didn't notice anything. This builds up a kind of confidence, that even if you notice it now, you knew you had moments where you didn't and you'll get back there again.

Yeah Paywall.. People spend your money on a good dinner. This one smells like fast money.

Thanks for the heads up on Tumeric powder mate, over the years I’ve tried a fair few different supplements and at a point in time saw a reduction in my Palinopsia! I couldn’t tell what might’ve been doing it so I’ll try tumeric again.

Can you play video games? Been struggling since a worsening of my afterimages

The reddit thing you said at the end is so real😂😂 yout can‘t say something positive there

I took your course and it has helped me so much, thank you for being there for us!

What’s your insta ?

Hearing you talk about the diamond/orb in the center of vision is so relieving. I haven't been able to find anyone else talk about it and i thought i was alone. Thank you for this video

thank you this gives me hope. i think my diet is mostly fine, but i'm definitely a hypochondriac. my VSS started when i was unemployed and had a dwindling social life, so it's probably connected to my mental state. i managed to see a neuro-opthamologist, but he wasn't much help. i'll try the tumeric + black pepper on my food, thanks!

Can vs cause blindness or can it progress from mild to sever vs Because i have very mild but i am stressing very much about it and about palnopsia also so can you please tell me about this please

Take vitamin b12 and folate supplements, for me they don't stop it completely but at least reduce those black holes that pop occasionally in my vision. Also, make sure to not take the cyanocobalamin version of b12. Take either methylcobalamin or hydroxocobalamin.

Very good video Jack. I agree in all those points. I have VSS for about 17 years now and i am 34 years old. I had many episodes where i thought that i will never be able to drive car again, go to work, watch tv, and so on. I missed more than a half year at work and couldn´t leave my home because of bad panic attacks. Once i realized that it can´t get more worse i started to accept it and i wanted to live and started playing games on my laptop. the first session was less than one minute, i couldnt do it but i forced myself every day to play this games & tried as hard as i can to focus on this stupid game. Every day it was better an better and about 2 months later i was able to play 3 hours without a break. I had so much panic to sit in dark rooms or was not able to go out in the evening. But i forced myself and went out, first 100m, months later 10km in one night. To make it short now, the best is to accept it and move on. Dont let yourself down. I still have episodes where its worse and the anxiety comes back, but i try to remember that i went throuh hell and am now functioning.

this man is doing the work of god

Is unclear vision and blury vision in a day is a symptom of vss

Ofc its behind a paywall. If one truly wants to help people with this it should not cost.

Excellent final video Jack, I'm a fellow young aussie who was most likely born with VSS, and I've also gone through stints in my life where I've reacted badly to my symptoms even though I spent all of my childhood and early teenage years never even knowing what I saw wasn't normal. So I deeply resonate with your story and your views on VSS, I too only started dealing negatively with my VSS after I learnt about it from online research and was told "this is really rare, and not normal". I myself have also tried on many occasions to help others in the community with their own VSS but it's incredibly difficult when so much of the online forum groups, subreddits, Facebook groups are SO negative and quite dark. People just don't want to be told that there's no cure, there's no real treatment and that you have to learn to live with it, some just won't accept that. You end up with a few people agreeing with you, and then the majority just point their fingers and spill their anger and frustrations at you because "you obviously don't have it bad" or "you've had it for life so you don't compare to me". I wanted to create my own video sharing my own story out of inspiration from yours about a year ago, mainly because your views and opinions align so similar with mine, and I stand firmly in belief that VSS isn't a rare condition at all, I believe a good portion of the worlds population have it but don't even know about it because they've never learnt about VSS. There needs to be MORE people spreading positivity and hope and letting others know that you don't have to SUFFER with VSS, and that it does get better if you allow yourself time to rechange your mindset and how you react to your symptoms. Thank you for still doing your part to help spread a good message about VSS, you're an absolute legend buddy! P.S - just remember people, VSS isn't going to kill you, there's no definitive proof that it's degenerative and that it'll get worse over time, and just stay humble in knowing our situations could be a lot worse and there's plenty of people out there dealing with really SERIOUS conditions that'd trade all of that just to have VSS in return.

I have heard from a lot of research that VS is a symptom of a dysregulated autonomic nervous system. Which explains why it’s particular in people who have anxiety and therefore, a dysregulated nervous system. What do you think of this?

Saw you shared this on reddit, did the course and 100% it helped me look at this differently, thank you Jack 🙌

This is true, i barely notice it when I'm not anxious about it.

Thank you so much for this ❤

Hey man! I am starting to follow this diet! Do carrots help?

I have eye floaters (that’s been its own spiral) and something that’s been getting to me for the past few months. When i first spiralled, i heard of visual snow and panicked and put myself into a hole and went to Reddit (everyone advised me to get off Reddit because it’s worse for you- someone actually send me the link for this video and advised I watch it to calm me down). My eyes are healthy I’ve had them checked. Around 2 days ago I saw a tik tok identifying visual snow and convinced myself I have it again. I have headaches and also have tinnitus (ears have rung for as long as I can remember so it isnt related) and have now convinced myself I have visual snow. I live in a house with all white walls and when I look at the walls convinced myself the white looks grainy. When I look at a blue sky my eyes are a mess due to my floaters but all I see is glitter esque particle (think Edward In Twilight) anyway. All I’m saying is I’m fine until I have time to hyper fixate then convince myself i have these problems. I don’t know if I do or if I’m just paranoid and questioning what I’m seeing. All of this has come from my floaters. You can’t help but question what you see.

hello i want to talk to you personaly please give your instagram id

Hi i was wondering if stripey lines in vision every now and then is a symptom of visual snow?

Visual Snow is fixable. DMX is your friend 😊There’s a reason you all have a bunch of other “symptoms”

I have suffered for 40 years from visual snow, and for 30 years from illusory palinopsia. Nowhere have I found symptoms like these, and for decades I have lived with the belief that I had some terrible neurological degeneration that would lead to my death, precluding any kind of future. now I know that these are more common symptoms than I thought, and that it is not some nameless curse. thanks for the video, we will defeat these shitty symptoms! 💪💪

I need to talk to you how??

I do have OCD and anxiety and have all these symptoms so it's hard to disagree with you. The idea of these symptoms being physical manifestations of poor mental health is not something I would rule out at all.

Can we drink turmeric and black pepper in morning in warm water and how much? I am an Indian and all our dishes have turmeric already. But my symptoms flare up.

Thank you Jack for all what u r doing, I wanna ask u how you deal with vision trialing, this is the most tough symptom.

It’s exactly how you describe it, i was so scared to take medication because i was scared to make my vs worse. And that wasn’t the case it hasn’t gotten worse I’ve taken medicine for various reasons. And it’s never gotten worse and I haven’t lost my vision.

Ty for pushing our morality <3

Good stuff! Specific information about lifestyle changes for VSS can be difficult to find. I felt great while I was drinking golden milk daily! Great anti inflammatory recipe.

Did you have visual trails or tracers following along behind a moving objects?

This is fine and dandy as advice as for the majority of people the effects are minor and it's nothing to worry about indeed, but I do wish to say that the OCD and anxiety link is made with a bit too much force. I mean there are also people whose symptoms are so bad they are unable to read and it's debilitating. Just telling them to ignore it doesn't help, we still need to have this thing taken seriously and properly researched etc.

I am also suffering from Visual snow but also migraine aura and Alice in wonderland syndrome, are they also caused by similar problem in brain ?

Every single one of your videos are the single things that help me deal with this, so thank you :)

Thank you so much. I was looking for someone who has the same Problem as me. This relieved me greatly

Hey, im going through this I dont have instagram.. is there any place I could talk to you? Im 30 years old and Ive had this for 20 weeks

How much % have your symptoms improved?

Jack noooooo, please no compulsions like this! These are only going to keep you stuck, come on you know better. 💔

Thank you so much, I'm going thru a flare up I have been dealing with the snow for two months now, the biggest symptom is the light sensitivity I constantly have to wear sun glasses, the ringing in the ears is minimal but I get spikes I believe the has been coming to a head for years I had after emages for at least three years and never knew what they was

Awesome going to sprinkle that in my food 😊
