Hands up everyone who watches the Simpsons. Keep your hands up if you manage to: take in, process and understand more than 90% of what you see and hear in an episode. If asked this before I hadstarted taking drugs, I would still have my hand up. But now I cant really claim that I watch it at all. Yes, I sit and watch episodes from beginning to end, but more often than not my thoughts will be about something other than the cartoon. Ill watch a scene and understand it, but then something in my brain decides that some sub-thought related to what I just sawis more interesting than what's currently on the screen. Ok, so the Simpsons isfairly fast-moving, but it's designed so that the 'average' human can follow it without much difficulty, right?On a bad day I will barely scratch the surface. Does anyone knowif this is a symptom of attention disorder?
I remember occasions in my highschool days when someone would be telling me an anicdote or something, and instead of listening and taking in what they were saying, I'd analyse the waythey told their story. I'd have to pretend that I understood what they'd said. Anyway,it didn't happen often and when I got olderit completely stopped. But now,sinceI started takingMDMA, the 'condition' is back and Im a little worried. Anyone know anything about this shit? Anyone recommend that i see a doctor?
