The main part of the issue was actually that I was not aware I had internal conflicts. I just mysteriously felt less emotions and motivation. That’s the main thing all the articles I read of sustainable productivity did not transmit me, how to recognize it as it happens, without ever having my internal monologue saying “I don’t want to work on this” or something.
What do you think antidepressants would be useful for? I don’t expect to be matching any clinical criteria for depression.
I consumed edible cannabis for the first time a few months ago, and it felt very similar to the experience you’re describing. I felt regularly surprised at where I was, and had lots of trouble remembering more than the last 30 seconds of the conversation.
The most troubling experience was listening to someone telling me something, me replying, and while saying the reply, forgetting where I was, what I was replying to and what I already said. The weirdest part is that at this point I would finish the reply in a sort of disconnected state, not knowing where the words were coming from, and at the end I would have a feeling of “I said what I wanted to say”, even though I could not remember a word of it.
