I wouldn’t call it overclocking so much as changing the way you think, and making it easier to separate thought from emotion. Or at least that was an observation I made about what was different. I could think about things that were normally very emotionally charged without those same emotions getting in the way, kinda like being able to skip the stages of grief when thinking about things many people are in denial about without even thinking about it.

I also believe that it reduces the barrier between the conscious and subconscious, allowing more things the subconscious “figured out” to bubble up to conscious thought. “Figured out” in quotes because while the subconscious is powerful, it is not infallible. There might also be a sense of connection between the “a-ha!” feeling of figuring out something profound and random thoughts going through your conscious mind, making normal or dumb shit seem important and groundbreaking in the moment.
