Do you guys think that since Fear Toxin is a hallucinogen people who have exposure to it could experience the flashback phenomenon? Like you could just randomly start tripping for a hot sec before going back to normal if you’ve ever had exposure to drugs like LSD or shrooms (and sometimes even marijuana). Do you guys think that that’s what was happening when Dick or Bruce would hallucinate Jason after his death?

Awareness/representation flag for hallucinogen persisting perception disorder. HPPD is a non-psychotic disorder where a person experiences persistent or lasting hallucinations or perceptual distortions after drug usage (typically psychedelics, but it can also be from other drugs including dissociatives, THC, SSRIs, and entactogens).

Versions with the static overlay (left) and without (right) are present— we chose to put it there to represent the visual snow that’s common with the disorder.

Can also be referred to as the comet HPPD flag.

We have HPPD. Be nice.

Do you know what Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS) is?

Yes, and I've had it all my life

Yes, and I acquired it later in life

Yes, but my visual snow is caused by HPPD

No, but I've had this my entire life

No, but I developed visual snow later in life

No, and I've never had visual snow

Something else, tell me more in the tags!

Visual Snow Syndrome or VSS is characterized by perception of small dots or distortions in vision that are similar to TV static. It is caused by neurological factors rather than the eyes themselves.

I've had visual snow as long as I can remember, and because of this it took me until adulthood to realize not everyone sees this way! It may be more or less apparent depending on light levels. It can vary in severity from person to person and from day to day.

It's also possible to start seeing visual snow later in life. Anything that can impact your neurology, like neurological events or head injuries, can cause visual snow.

HPPD is Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder. HPPD describes when someone continues to have Visual distortions after exposure to a Hallucinogen and can last for only a few months or even years (some reporting it never truly went away). This isn't limited to visual snow and can result in different types of distortion, but visual snow is a common one!

Couple more examples here!

The best thing about making a movie independently is that you can make it as queer as you want.

Gay representation

Agender representation

Demiboy representation

(also for illnesses, one of the leads has HPPD)

And all of this, in a cast of 3 PEOPLE!!

Hooray for queer rep for the sake of queer rep!
