I used to think I was just tired. Like, “maybe I need more sleep” kind of tired. So I rested. I took breaks. I slept in.
But the fog didn’t lift.
I was still spacing out mid-sentence and forgetting basic words. My brain felt simply offline. And the worst part was, I looked fine, even though I was constantly asking myself, Am I losing it?
Everyone thought I was fine. But inside, it felt like my brain had been replaced with mashed potatoes. I couldn’t think straight, and the more I tried to fix it, the worse it got.
Turns out, brain fog from anxiety isn’t about being lazy or under-rested — it’s your brain stuck in survival mode. Not tired... but overstimulated. In that state, trying to solve it with logic is like putting out a fire by blowing on it.
