The way you feel is how Sensei is feeling except his mind is also degenerated. During the puzzles, Sensei gets confused, frustrated, and bored as well. He can even just decide to jerk himself off to death instead of finding a way out at one point. Overall, It is supposed to be confusing, frustrating, and unpleasant if you haven't been paying attention to the game, like a challenging boss battle.Sure I get the logic behind the puzzles, I just don't think it works that way in practice. I can feel the emotions of the characters in other events just fine, without any ludonarrative mechanics. But for reset events I don't feel Sensei's confusion or frustration, I just feel my own. And even that just slips into boredom pretty quickly. The puzzles take me out of the story to scour past events for specific bits of text until I realize that's a waste of time and just search for the answers.
Or rather just beg the forum for answers and hope the next green arrow is finally large enough to guide me.
Also I recommend just screenshotting things that seem notable. Like when he mentioned his password or when the game tells you to remember or write things down. I've never found the puzzles all that difficult, tbh. At least after realizing there were puzzles. At most, the Ip address was annoying, but it fits the whole User 1 and User 2 lore, and you get it right before the puzzles start if I recall. Other stuff like the recent puzzle for Noriko literally asks you to type Dirt backwards or User 1 more like Loser 1.
