Fether Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) That feeling you get when you are repeating an action over and over again. It’s like a numbness in your lower throat and upper chest. Like practice fatigue. I get it when I repeat a phrase in music over and over again and continue my struggle to get it right. I also get it when I have argued or listened to negativity for too long. I’ve tried explaining this to my wife and she can’t seem to figure out what I’m talking about Edited January 13, 2022 by Fether
Fether Posted January 13, 2022 Author Posted January 13, 2022 Is it just mental exhaustion/fatigue? The best example I can think of is chewing on tasteless gum for hours on end… only it’s mental
Calm Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Not quite brain fog because that rises up sometimes due to fatigue, but not always and feels more to me like I just can’t think….mental fatigue, being stuck in mental mud…. Boredom? Ennui? Tedium? Stagnation? Inertia…but that I associate with not moving more than not changing. Burnout? Wearied? Edited January 13, 2022 by Calm

The Nehor Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 This sounds like one of those things you ask a German what their word for it is. They have a word for almost every emotional and mental state. 1

Alexi Nakatology Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 1 hour ago, James 1 5 said: That's IT !!! :] that’s the best. if anyone is curious the phrase deja vu has a bunch of interesting counterparts: Jamais vu (or “vuju de” if you like George Carlin) meaning “never seen”, the sense that something which has definitely happened before is being seen differently, the opposite of deja vu “already seen” and presque vu meaning “almost seen”, the sense that something is about to happen but never does
