#'''Concentration suppression''' - This is the partial failure of a person's short term memory. It can be described as a general difficulty staying focused and an increase in distractibility.

#'''Short term memory suppression''' - This is the complete failure of a person's short term memory. It can be described as the experience of becoming being completely incapable of remembering any specific details regarding the present situation for more than a few seconds. This is capable of resulting in [[~~Tthought~~ loops]], disorientation, loss of control and confusion for the inexperienced. Long term memory however remains entirely intact as people are still perfectly capable of recollecting their name, date of birth, childhood school, etc.

#'''Long term memory suppression''' - This is the complete failure of both a person's long and short term memory. It can be described as the experience of becoming completely incapable of remembering even the most basic fundamental human concepts stored within the long term memory. This includes one's name, identity, home town, that they are on drugs, what drugs even are, what human beings are, what life is, what existence is or what anything is. The most notable of these, however, is the loss of one's ability to recall their concept or sense of self and identity. The experience of this is colloquially known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death ego death]. It results in the profound experience that although one is not unconscious, there is no longer an “I” experiencing current sensory input; there is just the input as it is and by itself.</onlyinclude>
