Hi Everyone,

Just wondering if any of you have got any ideas for taming real bad brain fog even if it only lasts an hour or so. My brain fog is particularly bad at work from about 8.30 am until 1.00pm. I often have meetings around this time and thus find it extremely difficult to conduct myself professionally. I generally say as little as possible because usually I have missed something earlier on in the conversation and then end up saying something totally irrelevant or inappropriate.

When I know that I have a meeting to attend or something else where I need my mental faculties (which are virtually gone !) I will have a half cup of coffee with varying degrees of success. Sometimes it will work perfectly and buck me up just enough without anxiety but usually it just makes me worse and I end up very jittery and flipped out. If I don't have any coffee at all, I am so drowsy that I can't comprehend what they are talking about. Holy cow, I can't believe that I am still employed.

Cheers from Rachie
