Sure do, rapidcycla.
My pdoc thought it was manic psychosis (well the colour confusion and then other hallucinations of absent objects) but most of what you describe there I get from time to time even when I think I'm neither high nor low. Typical "brain fog" which makes reading very difficult especially when my eyes dart around the page and refuse to follow a methodical reading approach. Forgetting names of familiar objects - even of people I know well. Then days later, I have no trouble remembering tiny details from all sorts of things.
It is very frustrating, and I haven't found a satisfactory neurochemical explanation for it yet - that I can comprehend in my foggy state, anyway.

I hope you find useful answers.
