Can psychological trauma cause vss?
Hi member of this brave community. I have, for soon 2 years, have developed the symptom of VSS i do not have a official diagnostic yet but at this point im convinced i have it since the description people give is exactly my situation. So the reason of my post is because the symptoms started appearing for me after a evenement who traumatized me. I won't go into detail but i can say i have witness the death of someone close. Since it happens the symptoms started slowly appearing till a point where they can't be ignored. I have seen ophthalmologist who told me that everything with my eyes is okay. I also been afflicted from chronical stress for at least 10 years and i have a cannabis addiction and i consume every day. As i understand these two points can be trigger for this affliction but it didn't appear since the event. Is it possible that my nervous system was on edge and the event was simply the last straw? And did some of you manage to control the symptoms with meditation and mindfulness? I hope one day being able to see the blue sky again and not be afraid of the hallucinations i see in the dark. Thanks for reading my post.
