Brainfog stealing my gainz

Smoked weed and got traumatized for a moment while high. I can't fix it and it's dragging my life into oblivion

exact same situation. this shit is the worst

Holy shit have you found anything that helps? Also what's your story

Massive anxiety/panic attack during a social event, felt like a blood vessel popped in my head but an MRI and a CT scan revealed that everything is fine.
Tried many different supplements and none of them were effective. Closest thing I've found to relieve this hell of a state is a pharmaceutical called Phenibut but do mind that it is addictive so be mindful on how long you use it.
Currently following a regimen close to what is described in this post shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18588904#18588904

I used to get brainfog but I have no idea what cured it objectively. Only habits I've changed are more regular sleep and exercise. Diet is similar.

Strangely enough, I have cramps for months but now I don't get them any more despite my diet being exactly the same. I think it was related to anxiety.

Our bodies are so nuanced and complex, I legit believe it's impossible to determine what causes what.

get checked for dietary intolerances and allergies
stop watching porn and make sure you're getting your daily vitamins and mineral requirements

END MY SUFFERING

For me it feels like right behind my eyes and the back of my brain is numb. Exactly like when your hands go numbs from the cold then you heat them up very fast. You feel that too?

y-yes, but I have never been able to describe it until now
literally feels like the inside of my head/those areas you described are stuffed with cotton

I suffer from this and more. Please someone drop some knowledge bombs in this thread.

Did you do some proper psychotherapy for your depression or only taken the meds?
Don't know about the adhd meds, but there are a bunch of antidepressants and if you talk to your psychiatrist about having too many side effects he should help you find meds that work better for you. Even within SSRIs alone there is a fuckton to choose from

Those dr. jewstein pills probably permanently fucked your brain up so just off yourself I guess.

Thats a great despriction. And since I went on adderall and started feeling like this the doctors upped my dosage and put my on anti depressents. All along I was told I felt this was BECAUSE I had adhd.

sleep

humans need sleep so badly but are so bad at it

sleepmaxxing will help you with so much shit you didn't even realize was wrong with you

did you know that chronic sleep debt has symptoms that present exactly the same as ADHD? really makes me think

Have you seen any results so far? That's one hell of a program but I'm desperate

Holy shit. Same thing happened to me around 10 years ago. Haven't been the same since but just about functioning day to day

I used to be a neet and sleep 14 hours a day. Its even worse than undersleeping. I think QUALITY sleep is the key. REM, I havent dreamed in years

>sleep 12-13 hours a day
>lucid dream in the morning of having a gf
>fully realize that if I sleep any more I will get a super massive headache and all of the regular oversleeping symptoms for the entire day
>continue sleeping anyways

God I wouldn't wish this state on my worst enemies, no lie. It saps the life out of life itself.

You're fucked hard in the ass. Like, your spincter and second sphincter are both bleeding and bruised and the super aids is now spreading throughout your system fucked. You took powerful brain altering drugs through the period in life where your brain is still mostly developing. Hell, you took them thorough puberty. Of course there are going to be long term complications. It's all damage control from here on out.
Go talk to a doctor so they can tell you that nobody really knows how to help you since they can't exactly do drug studies on children and get back to us so we can all laugh at you. I'm sure they're very thankful for the decade you bought their magic happy pills, though.

I started getting panic attacks everytime I got high so I quit smoking weed. I'm still convinced I permanently fucked my brain up and made myself more anxious through that 4 year weed smoking phase. Prior to being high I never had anything close to a panic attack.

Yea man gee thanks for that le edgy comment.

This

>get noopept and lion's mane and use them daily
>do "brain exercises" that improve brain plasticity
>absolutely try your damn hardest to concentrate, focus, study and learn stuff
>don't slack off on the diet - eat well
>exercise (lifting + cardio) regularly

It will be a hard journey but you can get out of this brain fog hell bro, trust me. You will be dragged down fucking hard by your current "condition" every single day, but with discipline you will improve and eventually be even better than the average person.
I'd recommend some research on brain plasticity improving substances other than those I cited, just in case there are more - this will speed up your development.

I've had brain fog and poor memory all my life. It fucking sucks. I got on anti depressants only a few months ago and they helped a lot but they have neither worsened or improved my brain fog or poor memory. Im not deficient in anything, all my blood tests are normal. I hate this shit.

Thanks man will take your advice. Hopefully my brain isnt done developing and I can recover what Ive lost or at least find a way to cope.

adhd meds like adderall, ritalin and others psychiatric drugs cause shrinkake of brain tissue so no wonder, you would be insane or badly misinformed if you had used stimulant drugs for 10 years. adderall withdrawal lasts a month severe, and post acute 3-6 months

Quit narratives and put the voices to play, maybe they're wrong and nothing else but voices

When I wrote that I didn't even consider the development time. Our brains are truly amazing and can be rewired over time, it will just be hard - don't let this "but I fully developed this way" bullshit block you from stopping to suffocate mentally.

Some things I’ve done which have drastically improved my brainfog:

>/noalarm/
Go to bed early enough that you don’t need an alarm
>sleep mask
block out all light
>melatonin
Super doses only when you think you’ll wake up early than 6 hours
>/nobooze/
Self explanatory
>coffee only
as a caffeine source and max 24 ounces a day
>no carbs before bed
>no large meals before bed

the last two and no booze are probably the biggest improvements of my sleep and overall mood. The sleep mask and no alarm was pretty life changing too. I’m just slowly developing a lifestyle where my body is boss and I’m not gonna force it to wake up, or get drunk whatver

What should I expect my first month? Ive never made it 2 weeks without meds. I forget what I felt but it was bad. Bad enough to go bad on them. I forget a lot of things these days

>mentions taking drugs
>can anyone tell me what might be causing this shit?
I wonder...

Try this stack OP

Multivitamins
L-Theanine
Ashagandwha
5HTP
Lions mane
Magnesium
Noopept
Calcium + D3

for stimulants extreme fatigue, depression and severe sleep disturbances/vivid dreams. if you been long time on adhd meds you probably will cause craving them badly once you quit too

Fuck! I know I have to get the hell away from them but goddamn that sounds horrible.

idk how to describe it but smoking weed has made me feel like everything around me is absurd

like Ill look at peoples behaviors and just think its so strange how humans do things like that. Even small things. The other day it was so stupid lmao, I looked inside a fancy bathroom appliances store and started meditating on how weird it was how humans spend a bunch of money decorating the place where they shit

these thoughts are getting ridiculous and I cant really tell whats normal and whats odd anymore. anyone relate?

Oh fuck I tend to eat a ton right before bed. Its weird as fuck, I work a 14 hour shift and eat properly in the day, come home tired and ready to sleep and as Im right about to dtift off I have a compulsion to eat shitty food. Im not even hungry I just do it.

My mom claims the gluten free diet has cured her brain fog and increased her IQ by 5 points

Bro who in their right mind put you on ADHD meds (basically meth) and antidepressants when you were 10 ? What fucking irresponsible idiot did this ? Were you never looked at again to see if you still needed it ?

Far as brainfog goes I'd bet 10 years of meds on a developing brain likely fucked up the neurochem permanently.
Go see multiple docs for different opinions clearly the one who put you on that shit did not know what they were doing.

As ohers have stated sleep is important. But no one have mentioned the importans of exposure to the sun for regulating sleep and awakeness, and the impact being in nature have on mental health. Go hiking and you might be released from the brain fog.

Coeliac or general gluten sensitivity can cause an autoimmune response and even ataxia. It's kind of far-fetched but not unheard of.

Iodine drops, no meme

BOXXY
thanks user for reminding me of her, used to get hypnotised watching her talk

I used to draw in class during 5th grade so my teacher had a conference with my parents about me having adhd, parents went to doctor, he asked if I was bored and had trouble paying attention in class (like all damn kids do) I said yes and boom I suddenly have adhd. My parents were dealing with my older brother having MS at the time and his other mental issues so when anothet kid started having problems it was easy to just go with it. I have been to at least 8 doctors over the years and have told them I dont want to be on meds and that I was losing interest in my hobbies and generaly couldnt think. They all just switched my dossage around or had me try different kinds of meds. No one has ever listened to me

I fight wildland fires for a living on a handcrew so hiking and sunlight are doable. I dont remember how I felt towards the end but at first I remember being yelled at a ton for not learning things fast enough. This was 3 months ago and I can only remember small parts of that summer. I do remember everyone telling me I was doing great about a month in but past that I really dont know. Its driving my nuts because it could be helpful but I cant remember for the life of me

lions mane alone helps with my brain fog but when i stop taking it it comes right back after a bit

Just ordered some. If this works I will think clearly and be able to fuction like a noemal person for the first time in memory. Thanks user and everyone else, Im going off my adhd and depression meds tomorrow. Hopefuly I can make it

I've got this same shit. Sometimes it will go away for like an hour or two and I'll feel great but it always comes back. Don't think I do anything that makes it go away, just seems random

Do you take any meds? How is your sleep? Diet?

Hit or miss as I generally do it at night and am only out if I need food or anything like that but I'll constantly think about the shit other people do. Sometimes I'll be 'creative' and think about things I can actually do or plan (which some end up being hilariously ridiculous) but sometimes I've thought about the things people do too.
