The idea that a person's state of mind can increase the effects of narcosis is covered in this study.
All About Narcosis...
"Group One was taught that a diver would get narcosis at 130 fsw, and much emphasis was placed on the extremely high probability of narcosis with SEVERE symptoms. Group Two was taught of the existence of narcosis, the symptoms and depths of occurance begining at 100 fsw, but were not subjected to an intimidating lecture, as in Group One, that narcosis was an absolute barrier. Group Three was well educated on narcosis with three full hours of lecture on symptoms, risk, danger and known research. They were told that divers with strong will power as postulated by Miles (1961) could mentally prepare themselves and greatly reduce the effects."
Maybe some of the posters you're referring to in the underlined bit above may have entered a kind of "Group One" state of mind through gathering expectations of what narcosis is like through reading on-line.
Or perhaps they are diving in cold and/or low-viz situations. I dive in cold dark water in Ontario, and have been noticeably narced on some deeper dives (+120 ft), which consisted of checking my SPG every 10 seconds or so and having to check it again because I couldn't recall exactly what it said. Come up ten feet or so and memory mysteriously returns....
Your diving is in warm, clear Caribbean waters, and that the effects of narcosis on you have been so slight as to be minimal. Perhaps the dive environment is the main issue. To test that hypothesis, try some cold, dark diving....let me know how it goes
