this is the deceptive nature of cannabyss; it lures you in and the thc accumulates in your brain cells as well as elsewhere in the body subtly but surely over time with repeated use in particular chronic daily smoking. the body isn't given anywhere near enough time to detox it out so it all builds up, altering the very functioning of your mind at all times, not just when you're high.
people spend years, even decades, lost in the cannabyss without truly realizing it. once they become somewhat aware of it or have other reason to quit, they find the returning clarity of thc-free life frightening - not because weed is jesus - but because they were so used to living lost in a permafried brainfog hazy daze that a lucid mind microscopically focusing in on everything they neglected while lost in the high is disturbing. the return to smoking is comforting, not because being thc-free is an impossible lifestyle, but to become ignorantly and comfortably numb.
and i know exactly what op means about being able to read and comprehend intelligent materials quite quickly after detoxing from thc and then - after smoking again, perhaps thinking that being high will enhance the experience - finding it almost impossible to get through a few pages without completely losing track.
and yet, at other times, it can enable greater connectivity, or in other areas of life; i think it's good for musicians to accumulate thc but if you want to live life with more executive command and higher cognitive functioning then the hedonistic black hole of the cannabyss might be dangerous.

the real problem as i see it is chronic smoking or any other ingesting of it; that leads to total saturation and it hijacks your being. once in a while usage, giving the body time to totally detox it all out inbetween, is much better, however despite the "it's not addictive" shills everyone knows that it's easy peasy to increase one's usage rapidly, particularly in times of stress or whatever else - all kinds of excuses emerge and the bowl or bong becomes like any other escapist drug.
if you don't smoke regularly, you get the benefits of 1) head and body clear of thc throughout most of your lifetime 2) fairly quick detoxing of thc when you do smoke once in a while, return to normal clear lucid mind 3) occasional insights or enhanced enjoyments on special once in a while occasions 4) better health from not smoking every day... and so on.
when you smoke chronically you quickly disappear into the abyss and get semi-permafried brainfogitis and it can take months to recover from depending on many factors.
