I know exactly what you mean about light sensitivity. In my case it's mostly natural "Outdoor" light. If I'm driving in really cloudy weather, and suddenly it becomes really sunny; I'll get extremely dis-oriented and have a panic attack. I don't know if that's the same as what you're talking about, or if others have noticed it too?
I've always thought I was strange in respect of being so affected by lights.
Has anyone experienced a new sensitivity to light? I'm not talking about wanting to stay in a dark room all weekend, although I have had days like that.
Its just now, when I find myself stopped behind a vehicle, those "new" types of car taillights that use LEDs seem harsh and painful to look at (they flash at an extremely high rate, almost imperceptably unless your eyes are darting). The same goes for fluorescent fixtures in the commuter train I take in the morning. Both give me a slightly sour stomach as well.
Is this a side effect of meds, or does it sound like a new symptom I'm experiencing?
