Can't say I know exactly what you're talking about, but if it's a curse, it can be removed.
You can probably cheat engine it off but yeah, there's a few debuffs in the game that are permanent (like losing an eye). For that one in particular, think you can get a buff if you don't fail a roll but will get the debuff if you do.

As I understand it there are several permanent debuffs that can be acquired from the... more radical solutions to the tadpole problem.

You appear to have walked into one of them.

Probably your best best is to use cheat engine to give yourself the stats back.

pay more attention to what you're doing instead of blindly doing idiotic decisions.

How is that idiotic? i personally make decisions from the point of view of the character. Everyone failed perception? Oh well there is nothing here.
But giving you a permanent debuff based on a choice? that's fine *if they also give you a way to remove said debuff* rather than making said character permanently useless for the entire game. Objectively bad design if there is no way to remove it.

You can undo it with the cleric spell greater restoration.

I mean, even if you fail the investigation check, the machine looks suspicious at best.
Also you trusted a Githyanki contraption to NOT hurt you.

Poor choices lead to bad consequences, but there are ways to remove it without cheating if I remember correctly.

Nope

I went into this trap and got -2 CON, INT and WIS, for a cleric.
It's fine, nothing is too broken.
