Symptoms of brainfog
It is important to realise that brainfog is a symptom of another condition, and so the symptoms you see here purely relate to brainfog. You will definitely have more symptoms than this. 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. If you believe there are symptoms specifically to brainfog that we have not included here, please use the discussion page.
Symptoms
Confusion
You may feel dazed, and unable to translate what is around you. This will be particularly strong if your brainfog has just been retriggered by your root cause.
Numbness
You may feel numb, and as if your senses are numbed out.
- Difficulty concentrating***
You may struggle to focus on what you are doing.
- Derealisation***
You may experience derealisation. This seems to go side-by-side with brainfog.
- Memory Issues***
This is a definitive symptom of brainfog, and can vary widely in presented severity.
- Cannot take in information***
It is important to realise that you do not need every symptom from this list in order to have brainfog. Some may come later, or not at all, but it seems that most individuals experience these brainfog symptoms most of the time, and so here is the list!
