Wow, that's really interesting! I think it's kind of cool actually (maybe that is wrong of me ). Does it worry you? Or is it simply a curiousity? Do these moments negatively affect your functioning?

I can't really say that that's happened to me, not like that. Upon thinking really hard on it, I do seem to vaguely recall times when things seemed visually sharper or just more... something. Nothing of the magnitude of which you speak. And if I recall this correctly (because it's an "in the mists" kind of recollection), it was at the very start of taking something. Can't remember what, but it wasn't Topomax. My experience can probably be chalked up to that kind of effect one can get when hypo or manic, simply by virtue of coming out of very dark places where all is gray, not hypo itself, but just a state relative to the depression. Not sure if that makes any sense.

The thing that first came to mind though was a definite memory. Psychedelic, but very different. There was a night in particular that, in addition to my usual meds, I'd had a couple of others for a back issue. Ones that I'd taken before w/o incident. Even looked up the combo with the psych ones online, and though they always have a CYA slant, didn't seem problematic. However. The only word I could find to describe what happened was "trippy". But not in a fun way. And not colorful, but shifting darkness. I tried to enjoy it, really I did. (No, really.) But it was kind of scary (but not in a way the story of which would be a definite digression... ). Was afraid to fall asleep. 1) because, seriously, I really wanted to enjoy it, and maybe just maybe if I just kept trying, I would and didn't want to miss the opportunity(!) and 2) I thought I would die if I fell asleep, which was a very weird fear, as it was also my fondest hope. But that would be a digression as well. Yeah, a quite twisted night altogether. (I stopped the others despite my back, btw.)

Soooo, kind of, but very differently. Seriously, I wish it were your way!
