Hey everyone, I've been long waiting to post this thread on reddit, and finally months after the actual experience I've got a chance to post about it, so here we go.
Here's the first thread I posted, hoping to get some involvement from the community so I could understand the mechanism of action by which I lost most of my visual memory and ability to visualize.

Hey everyone, so I've been taking NAC in the past for up to a week at 600 mg doses, and one thing that I've noticed the first time I did a "cycle" was that it completely messed up my visual memory.
I used to have a very pronounced photographic like memory, but it almost completely went away within the couple of days after dosing NAC, now after discontinuing I'd say that 20% came back and has been like that since, that was more than 3 months ago.
It did help with my mental state that's for sure, and I wouldn't necessarily say that my memory as…

It's really hard to say. It certainly doesn't sound like something that would happen after only a few doses of NAC. I can't think of a mechanism that would be responsible for it. Honestly, it is probably just a coincidence. You said you were having psychosis and obsessive thoughts, along with using benzos/amphetamines. It is more likely interactions from those, or just a result of your brain changing because of a not-fully-treated mental issue. Benzos and amphetamine can really screw with memory.
