im 182cm ~76kg and ive been cutting for a good 3 weeks, eating maximum 2000 calories, but the side effects are becoming unbearable
1-i feel like im getting stupid, i cant hold a full conversation without zoning out, and i constantly blurt out the wrong things, my memory is also dogshit, to the point where i forget what i was doing seconds ago
my muscles are also worryingly getting smaller, i dont know if thats a result of the cut or if its actual muscle loss, i eat around 130g of protein a day. can anyone help me to mitigate the side effects?

You are eating too little

Push up the cals a bit so you don't have so many side effects

pretty normal, your muscles aren’t actually shrinking it’s just water just raise your calories by a bit + eat some carbs

i feel like 2k calories is a lot maybe this is unrelated this makes zero sense as to why this is happening

im no stranger to cutting, ive done it a bunch over 3 years, no clue why this is happening, maybe i am malnourished. ill weigh myself tomorrow and see what to do from there, but in the meanwhile i’ll up the calories to ~2300 to sustain myself
