Thanks. I am absolutely positive that these symptoms were psychologically fabricated and nothing else is causing it.
I am not sure if my problem is something which called Palinopsia or not! but for example when I move my hand (specially in dim light) I see an afterimage/light thing following the motion on my hand. This is very disturbing and have been there for almost 8 months now! Is it some thing you call it Palinopsia? seeing some lights following any object in motion ?
Eyes have been tested as normal by eye doctor. MRI of the brain has been normal as well. So, I do not know if this is the Palinopsia or not!
Have you gotten used to the visuals?
I developed this symptom in August 2013, this occurred after much anxiety about an infection that i had in the eye, even now I have the symptom, but not increased, I think something in our brain is triggered by anxiety and ends up staying, but not is nothing serious, we have to learn to live with it.
Good! I see positive and negative afterimages and they really bother me and cause a ton of anxiety. How long before my brain grows accustomed to them, do you think? Do you have any other strange visual phenomenon? Thanks!

Pretty good! They don't bother me at all. They are the same intensity from the start!
How are your afterimages today?
Hi!
It is normal for medical and psychology students to practice what they read or feel the symptoms of an illness they read about. You must learn to dissociate yourself from this. Please stop staring at objects and see things normally. The symptoms will go away as they came. Hope this helps. Take care!
The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
Any help would be great. Thanks.
