Hi,

I'm relieved this site is here! It's hard to find other people to connect to who also have brain injuries. (My brain injury is due to severe infection but I could not find a forum for that...so thought I'd try posting here.)

I'm wondering...has anyone else experienced brain fog? What have you found helps and what makes it worse?

For me, brain fog feels like, well...a lot of fogginess in my head. It's hard for me to convey my thoughts in a way that feels like what I mean and who I am, it's hard to speak, think clearly and my coordination and balance get out of whack. When I feel this way, everything feels like it takes enormous amount of work and effort.

Excercise seems to help but- if I push too much, then I get foggy. Laughter seems to help a bit as well as eating well. But even still...

I keep trying to find ways to dissolve the fog and increase my energy. I'd really appreciate anything you'd like to share!

Thanks!!
