Brain Fog
Brain fog can be a frustrating and scary experience; here are a few suggestions on how to cope with it.
1. Repeat it to yourself. Repetition will keep thoughts fresh in your mind.
2. Write it down. Whether you or someone else writes it on a calendar, in a notebook, on sticky notes or record it onto a Dictaphone.
3. Explain your memory difficulties to family members and
close friends. Ask for patience and understanding.
4. Relax, the more stressed you get the harder you will find it to remember.
