Brain fog
Any tips for dealing with brain fog/derealization at work? I was feeling not too anxious this morning but I’ve got to work and finding it really hard to concentrate and get my words out

Yeah I so know that feeling. Remember it is not a big deal, it usually goes away when you just focus on present and do your job. Some days it makes things a bit harder but you can always do the job. Not putting pressure on myself is the best strategy for me. I just let it be, accept myself in this slightly uncertain position and focus on living. Also when you wanna help it the other way around, use yerba mate - that always helped me in the foggiest days.:)
@Dan8421 Honestly I’m in awe how you stated this, because for me it’s very much impossible to focus on work while having brain fog. Maybe I focus on it too much.
Here is a very overlooked thing that I at times miss . Something as simple as mild dehydration can contribute to fuzzy thinking . Especially as many of us are going into warmer weather keep up your fluid levels, with mainly clean clear drinking water 💦.
Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me
I’m in an absolutely crippling episode dealing with real event/ false memory. I literally cannot get out of it and it is beyond hell. Can someone please help me with advice? If you have been through this how did you get through?! I’m out of work, the only relief is when I’m sleeping no exaggeration. My husband is being super supportive and Is also taking time off to be with me. Was there a specific medication or any tricks that helped? I’m beyond desperate. Thank you
I have the thought of what if I lose control and do something out of my control like scream for no reason or yelling in a store or just blurting stuff out that’s not in my control and it causes so much anxiety and causes me to feel weird. I always think I’m on the edge of losing control of myself and it’s exhausting living like this. Any tips?
