Wow... I totally needed to read this today. I'm having a week full of fog and brain farts. Yesterday, my boyfriend opened the microwave to heat up some leftovers for dinner. He asked me if I wanted tea with my dinner. Apparently, at some point throughout the day, I had put water in a mug for tea, heated in the microwave and completely forgot about it. I couldn't even pinpoint when I had done it. But I must have, as I'm the only tea drinker in my house. Thankfully my boyfriend has a great sense of humor, or I would have been depressed the rest of the evening.

I agree with mark. We need to start a sticky for "brain farts".

I also second talking to your doctor about sleep medication. Your brain heal's best when it gets the ability to recover while you sleep. Sleep is so incredibly important. I am on medication for sleep and anxiety and it has made such a wonderful difference for me. The life of a concussed person is much easier to bear, when you aren't cranky from lack of sleep.
