Ed,

I spent 3 weeks of hell back December 2013 when my wife was in her first trimester and I was commuting 4 hours a day through snow to work 10 hours and come home to take care of her.

One day I just felt off. The whole room was spinning. I felt disembodied. I started blaming the caffeine and pseudoephedrine as the main culprits. I was able to still work, but I became obsessed over Meniere's Disease and Vertigo and other crazy stuff like realignment of crystals in my ears. Literally, the entire 3 weeks, I was doing all kinds of crazy yoga moves to try to move the crystals around because I thought for sure that was the problem.

Now I'm being modest in this post, as I'm sure most people will be. Brain fog sent me into the depths of hell for those few weeks. Between the mounds of snow, the isolation, work stress and now brain fog, I was about as depressed as one could possibly get.

End result, nothing happened. Brain fog is one of the worst symptoms of [anxiety and/or TMS]. Do yourself a favor and don't Google it. Brain fog searches bring up really crazy things. Kind of like the flu, you really have to let the fog settle on it's own. Try to engage in as much discourse as possible. It'll give your head a nice break. Eventually it will pass. I still get a "fog" in the morning sometimes, but it resolves itself pretty quickly. You'll be fine.
