Ok, so i started smoking back in march pretty sporadically untill about july when i was smoking every day. I have an extremely addictive personality and i have made the decision to quit premanatly/untill im an adult (im almost 15) because it started bringing my grades down, memory loss, no money, etc. I have been completely clean for about 3 weeks and will not use it for a long time. so heres the deal- my short term memory is completly fucked (it was a little bad before i toked but nothing like this) i cant remeber what i said 3 seconds ago, remeber my cell number, and i cannot pay a damn bit of attention to anything anymore. ill be talking to someone and i hear someone else talking and i immediatley focus on their conversation and forget where i left off and have these odd pauses in my speech. im beginning to become a little worried as school starts on the 27th and i really do want to do my best this year, no fucking around. so my question is- are any of these effects reversable? will things become more clear and my memory come back after a while? its been 3 weeks of absolutley no thc and its like a just toked 5 minutes ago. any comments are appreciated.
hmm... I'm not an expert, but I'd think that it will only get better. There's always the possibility that you just have a poor memory, though. I know I do. I hate it when people say to me "Oh, she's such a pothead, listen to how she talks! She's so slow!" blahblahblah... And it's just like "I've always been like that! You just didn't pay any attention to me before!" But yeah, If it doesn't get better within a little while, I'd just settle into the fact that my memory is fucked and try to make the best of it.
It's better to live in the moment and enjoy it, than try to remember the past and re-live it. Don't worry about your memory, just enjoy your life
yeai hate when people say that shit to me, sorta making fun of me if i like space out or something.. its just like, stfu dude
Yeh you get used to it after wile. I toke after work every day i do have trouble speaking to people sumtimes with 1-2pauses n forgetting what i was saying.
