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 💦.
My allergies are probably to blame mostly but I keep feeling like I got brain fog and it’s hard to concentrate. My ocd says what if you loose control and don’t know where your at and can’t concentrate and complete and task. I feel like I got alot going on trying my side gigs etc and working. Not feeling the best today.
Hi! I’m new to the NOCD community, but I’ve been dealing with OCD since I was 12. I’m almost 29 now, and my biggest issue is health anxiety. It’s gotten to the point where getting work done is nearly impossible because i can’t stop spiraling. I’m lucky that i work remotely, but also makes it easier to be in my own head… Asking for advice - how do you all deal with the intense anxiety and are able to make it through a 9-5 work day? Any suggestions on how I can actually be productive? Thank you!
Not necessarily asking for reassurance and I know I’ve mentioned this here before but my OCD has been affecting my cognition seemingly. I’ll forget small things or put things in odd places sometimes, or mix up words - things like that. Obviously this triggers me to be like “Alzheimers/dementia.” Can anyone relate? And if you recovered what did you do for it?
