Did quitting phenibut and/or over using it have lasting effects/permanent effects on cognition for anyone?
Post Body

Like ability to articulate stuff correctly, confusion, ability to feel empathy or happiness, complete ability to see things from other people’s point of view even though I almost always try to do that and used to be very good at it, anygjng elsememory, I’m sure I’m forgetting some things. I’m only 24 and have a very high working memory from the iq test and just a good long term memory in general like people are like how do you remember all those details from years ago. I’m not trying to brag at all I’m just trying to explain. Every time I would usually feel happy from something like a text from my mom or boyfriend saying I love you I get this weird zap/feeling in my head like it’s hard to describe and I don’t feel it the happiness/emotion/love that I would usually feel. I have to think what is appropriate to say back without actually feeling it and it being genuine. It’s like it’s blocking me to feel it. And I can’t show love and empathy towards someone because I have my whole life and now whenever I try to I get a weird ticklely feeling in my brain for as long as I try and I can’t feel the empathy. It stops when I stop trying, and it breaks my heart to stop trying to feel love and positive feelings to those that I care about but it seems like I am neurologically incapable of it now.Also not very articulate with words, memory is going to complete shit, and my spelling has declined a lot and I just feel confusion and whenever I do something or experience something that would usually make my mind feel stimulated like learn about things I get that same feeling in my head again and I don’t feel stimulated therefore can’t think about what I want to think about. I can still feel negative emotions though. Has anyone had feelings of long term confusion or have they gone back to normal and after how long? Thanks.
