 Posted: Sun, 26th Jun 2011 09:42 Post subject: short term memory loss |
|
 |
I'm starting to forget shit a lot more often these lately.
but when I'm high I'm more intelligent and forget nothing to the tiniest of details.
I've quit smoking hash due to a lot of weight loss, but I guess memory loss is mainly due to some degree of depression. I seem to be living just the present the past has never happened and the future just holds more of the same.

Nothing wrong with living in the present. No worry about the future and not stuck in the past.

It's happening to me too these days.. probably it's because I have a lot of different things/projects to do and my brain isn't used to manage all this stuff together and tolerate the stress without losing any vital information

You arent more intelligent cos Your high. You might remember more things (Know idea if You do) - but the drugs do not increase your intelligence.
shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

My friend who has been smoking for few years now has quite shitty memory, he tends to forget some of the conversations we have after a few days

Man, you don't need to have been smoking for that to happen. I can easily forget conversations next day or perhaps the same day all depending on the nature of the conversation ofc.

thc is most likely the reason as it has a strong (and negative) effect on memory for long-time users.

I think a bad diet also contributes to STML.
1 and 2 are still amazing.

Try and stop smoking for atleast 3-4 months and then re-evaluate your ability to remember. It is not a permanent loss if its caused by thc
8 out of 10 dentists prefer zipfero to competing brands(fraich3 and Mutantius)!

Actually there is a theory why people may remember more if they are High depending on their mental states. Some kind of paradox psy theory about activation/stress.
Basically some one who is always in prolonged high activation (high anxiety) , and then does stimulating drugs to put them into a even higher state they become dissociated, which looks like a calmer state where memory is better. ADHD medication works off this principle. It revs up a hyperactive person into the next phase of activation which is a calmer state.
Depressant drugs like alcohol will drop someone who is in a high activation state into a lower one where memory improves.
Kinda why people who gravitate to drugs and alcohol abuse issues tend to have trauma in their lives. Substances are actually helpful initially in helping people cope.
Something like that anyway.

I think to memorize something you have to have an emotional reaction to it, I generally just don't give a fuck, and even more so when high.
