Same, I was a daily smoker from like 18-22 and it fucked my memory up pretty badly. Lots of blurriness in my recall now up until the point where i quit
I was straight edge at that age range and my memory got fucked up by depression anyway. I think alienation, watching your childhood friends scatter to chase jobs, the economic inability to establish an adult life despite being physically mature, it all strays too far from evolved needs for the brain to handle. I honestly kind of regret not medicating at that age (though I was too broke anyway, and also not cool enough to know a plug)
