Mental sluggishness

[shishigami]

I spent about 8 months in Europe and smoked weed almost every day, now that I'm back in school I only smoke weed on the weekends but have noticed that this mental sluggishness and lack of concentration is omnipresent, even if I haven't smoked the previous day. I'm planning on taking a break and was curious how long people thought it would take to get back into top mental form again - I can't stand it, I sit down to do work that I find interesting and know that I used to be able to easily do and find it nearly impossible.

One of the reasons I want to stop smoking entirely.

To get back to near full mental capacity (85% or so) it takes me like 3-5 days.

To legitimately get back to thinking like 99% normal it's about 3-4 weeks for me. Which you don't really even realize until you go that long without.

Since I started smoking I haven't gone more than 8 months without a hit, and even then I felt not 100%.
So idk if I'll ever feel 100%. Maybe after a year or so.

But I suppose everyone is different, depends how long you've smoked, etc
