It is important to remember that brainfog is a symptom of another condition, and so the symptoms you see here purely relate to brainfog and are the symptoms commonly reported of it. You will likely have symptoms not listed here. This list is designed to help you understand and categorise your symptoms, and help those unsure if they have brainfog, determine if they do.
You don't have to have every symptom on this list to have brainfog, and you do not have to have a certain severity of each symptom either. Symptoms that brainfog itself causes (such as Depression) will not be listed here either.

You may struggle to focus no matter how important it is or how dedicated you try to make yourself to it.
