Are You A Caregiver Who Struggles With Brain Fog?
Brain fog can be a side-effect of medication, caused by exhaustion and stress, a symptom of PH and/or an effect of a coexisting condition. Most PH patients have dealt with brain fog in one form or another, but what about caregivers?
Caregivers certainly experience their share of exhaustion, stress and emotional fatigue and when they do, it has been my experience that it can bring on the brain fog.
I often catch myself — or am caught by others — repeating myself, forgetting what I was about to do, and losing my train of thought. A few times a day is tolerable but more than that is usually an indication that it’s time for me to take a mental health break. I will put off what I can and spend that time resting.
