It’s well known that Marijuana causes short term memory issues, but with Delta-8 I feel like it’s far more significant with long term use. I work in a profession that requires a lot of focus, but thank god my short term memory isn’t much of a factor because lately I’m losing ideas mid-thought
lately I’m losing ideas mid-thought
The event that prompted me to write just occurred. I know that I had a very basic idea about something and two seconds into thinking about it and doing it, I had no clue what I was intending to do. I regularly talk to people, have a specific point to make and kind of trail off to disguise the fact that my mind just lost what I was talking about. Sometimes I’ll answer a question, forget what the question was and listen intently to anything from the other person hinting at what we’re talking about. I’ve done well to hide it so far, but I feel like I have early onset dementia. It’s frightening me a bit, but I’m cutting back and getting off the delta 8 except for occasional weekends. I’m confident that getting it out of my system will help, but I’m not exaggerating when I say I could not have gotten through this experience report without being able to read the previous sentences. I’m functioning fine and I don’t think I’m too far gone, but this is the first time I have had this so severely.
Reported Dose: "Up to 250 mg at once. Usually around 25 to 120 right now, as I'm cutting down"
