i had a bit of an odd experience just yesterday after forgetting to turn off a gas burner that was on low in my kitchen nearby my workstation.

it could be carbon monoxide or methane/propane/butane intoxication.

check over the state of ventilation in your place if you have gas stuff in the house. and check the gas stuff.

this kind of intoxication is nasty. i messed around with it a bit in my teens huffing lighter fluid gas, and more recently played with diethylether. it sounds like it might be something of this nature.

Good info, fortunately it's not that, everything well ventilated here and no gas.

you'd be surprised how many places there is somewhat dangerous levels of methane in the atmosphere tho. more common where there is earthquakes but a lot more of a danger to people than recognised.

it's mostly not a problem for me because i spend most of my time on the lower storey with a big space for methane to float upwards, but carbon dioxide/monoxide is heavier than air, and what i think was happening was the levels of CO and CO2 were building up in my space with all the windows closed.
