Does any of this happen to you?

[stothelutz]

Ok I've been smoking at least twice a week since April and lately I've been noticing a few things and I'de just like to know if any of my fellow tokers notice the same things.

First, I generaly don't care as much about anything. If I do poorly on a test now I'm more like whatever where as before I would have freaked out and started going through all the possibilitys of how to fix it. (Test is just an example could be anything)

Second, my really really short term memory is going haywire. Someone will tell me there name and in literaly 30 seconds I will have forgot it unless I had some reason to say it again. Also I'll like get off the comp and go get a drink and on my way back I try to think what I was just doing and it takes me a while to remember.

Last, words dont come to me as easy. When trying to say a sentence sometimes I'll forget like one word in it and have to pause to think of it and then continue. Same goes with spelling when writing. I'll just totaly forget how to spell a word that should flow out naturaly.

Does any of this happen to you guys? If so have you found any clever ways to help reduce or help them? All comments are apreciated.

I'm the exact opposite for some weird reason. Everything matters more.

Yeah I know what you mean. I'll have five open sodas at once laying around the house sometimes.

I remember when I was smoking a quarter a week, my vocabulary just.. LEFT. I'm surprised you say that; I don't think I've ever heard about it from anyone else. Now that I don't smoke as much, it's not as bad.. but I still have those moments. It took me like a minute to search for the word "compatible" yesterday (was talking about computers). As for spelling? Nah. My spelling's fine.

Peace

yes...all of it... i used to have a flourishing vocabulary,i read lmost all the time(still do really,i love reading when i'm stonned,it's easy to picture the the test in your mind)but now i'll stop mid-sentence and totaly forget what i was even talking about,or if i'm distracted in any way i forget what the hell is going on,luckily i'm takeing a break....because i have no weed...because i don't have a good dealer....because i don't have any money...becasuse i'm have no job....because my car doesn't work...and so on

Lmao I'm the same way dude. Just look at it more positively.. rather than thinking "o shit I'm stupid and really forgetful" realize how much more focused and relaxed you are, it's a trade off but I'll accept it any day.

yea...i was smokin liek at least once a week durint he summer and have cut back now. but i still find that my short term memory isnt as good. i will put somethin somwhere, then forget where it is like 5 seconds later. i also find my vocabulary isnt as easy to use. bigger more complicated words dont come as easily, i have to think about them and try to remember them. it gets kinda anoyin sometimes.

[Left]

i smoked every day and now that i havent in a month and a half i forget words like that. ill be in a sentence and then forget the word and it will take me sometimes 5 seconds to rember it. i also used to have trouble remembering things mostly when i was leaving somewhere i would say to myself rember this and then forget it and remember it when i just pulled out and drove down the street and have to come back to my house and get it. but in school i could always recall vocabulary and such very easily after only reading it once.

Yeah all that stuff you mentioned same goes for me. I forget shit all the time.

One thing i hate alot is when i write a test (mainly math) high and think that i did so good on it and feel so confident but when i get it back its a complete fail. I hate that shit!
