I’ve noticed the last couple weeks I had some days during which I could think pretty well and remember things easily, felt smarter than usual, like I used to be. Then, during some other days I couldn’t recall simple words and would often need to replay parts of shows I was watching because I couldn’t process what was being said.
Nothing too terrible to deal with, but I’m wondering if it could mean something. Does this happen to anyone else?
I get like this. The replaying shows part I relate to a lot especially after smoking weed, which thankfully I don’t do as much anymore. I think it’s taken a toll on my cognitive function. I also feel like my sz symptoms are distracting me from the gusts of the real world
In my case, it happens on its own, as I don’t use any substances. Well, none other than quetiapine and caffeine at least.
For a few years my mind was useless when it came to reasoning and memory. That’s one of the main reasons I think doctors think I have sz, but this kind of thing makes me wonder if I’m not bipolar instead and just had a pretty long depression.
Then other times, i am speaking in phrases at a time and my speech is incoherent (i don’t notice it while its happening, but sometimes i notice it afterwards if i think over it and i can remember)
I’m also on quetiapine (not that high of a dose yet, just barely enough for psychosis coz the docs are still observing)
