Short term memory

    Obviously weed impairs short term memory while you're high and in the days following, but I haven't smoked in a week or two and my short term memory BLOWS. Like i'll just forget what i'm thinking about in the middle of my thought. It's frustrating because I can feel it happening and I know I can't get it back. It feels like that scene from Cast Away when Wilson is floating away.

    And if i'm trying to remember a specific piece of information, I have to think of ONLY that if i'm gonna remember it. If I think about anything else, that previous thought is gone.

    Anyone else have these problems? I feel like an old man with alzheimers sometimes. :(

    Are you a once a day (or more) smoker? If so, for how long?

    I find the withdrawals from weed, while slight, to be noticeable, and this (memory loss) is one I suffer when abstaining

    if theres one stoner steretype i find usually rings true, it's that we have bad memories haha. Id been smoking irregularly for a few years, but it wasnt until my first year of daily toking that it hit me how badly my memory sucked.

    ive always been forgetful and kinda absent minded, but theres no lying that weed made it a little worse for wear. personally though I don't mind being a little spaced all the time :smoke:

    Ha yea I know where you're coming from. I'll be in the kitchen at work, go into the walk in cooler for a specific reason and find myself trying to recall why I went in.

    Man we'd be fucked if cops starting administering roadside DUI tests for weed that way... they tell us a keyword right when they come to our window, then ask us what is was after they talk to us for a bit :eek:
