Is it possible to run out of space in your brain? ie: you're trying to learn new things and your brain is like...yea nah, this data storage is full? Or could that be something else?

So I have about 1 terabytes worth of music, books, some films which I should be sorting through, also about 1200 bookmarks, and it'd be nice to learn Spanish or Dutch. (I'm mostly done with English) I'm a NEET so I do have the time admittedly.
But what really happens is.. I'm just sitting in my armchair in front of my PC and whenever I'm trying to study, put things in order, my brain just goes - nope. It's just so frustrating when I used to be quite brilliant, but now I feel like a box of withered potatoes all the time.
What is wrong with me?

Pretty picture, anon. There was a time when I could simply look at it and generate dozens of branching possibilities, ideas, inspirations. Tie it in with existing macro ideas, distort it, pull individual elements, change it, manipulate it.

No longer. It's just a tree. Pretty, but just a tree. I'm not sure why it happens. I'm not if it has to happen. I'm not sure if it's temporary and reverses when some deep is identified and resolved, or if it's just one's frame of life in general. Maybe it's something in the environment. Maybe your way of conceptualizing and reworking your framework of knowledge has been crippled somehow.

I don't know. I hope it is solved. I know spending too much time around certain types of people, or in certain places, is mentally taxing and generally soul crushing over time, no matter how durable you are. /sci/ is certainly one such shithole.

These sort of questions are now, to me, some of the most annoying questions anyone can ask, because they show that the person asking didn't bother criticizing their own question to begin with. They don't bother with null hypotheses. They just think something, and because they thought it they think it's deep and profound shit.

It's not.

What is data storage? What is compression? What is lossless compression?

Are memories lossless? Are memories compressed? Does it matter what file system you use? When you try to compare a brain to computer hardware, go the fucking extra mile and actually wonder if your question makes sense.

Is it possible to run out of space in a book, especially when it's more of a binder and all you need to do is add another page?

These questions are stupid.

An actually intelligent person on /sci/.
Isn't this a rarity.
My friend, most of the anons on /sci/ are figuratively retarded.

Chances are very likely you just have a shit diet, some sort of drug addiction (nicotine and caffeine count), chronic dehydration and sleep deprivation.

Thanks :) I will enjoy

Um no I remember countless movies. And that's just movies.

A brain can only hold a finite amount of information because information is stored in the connections of neurons, and since neurons can only make a finite amount of connections to a finite amount of neurons. As a result we know the amount of I formation that can be stored is finite. The thing is that we don't know how much information this is, since as far as I'm aware we can only quantify amounts of information in computers. So while it is possible to "run out" of info I don't think we'd run out that quickly, so I'd attribute your symptoms to depression, stress or something else unrelated your brain "filling up".

Sorry about the grammatical errors, I'm using a mobile keyboard and I'm absolute shit at using it.

You were never brilliant, you're just now finally realizing it.

Y'all are right, OP and >>7742647 are both pseudo-intellectual trash trying to sound smart.

As if I give a shit about you.

Memories are almost certainly lossy.

Do more exercise.
Brain needs more oxygen.
