Early morning brain fog

My point still stands, weeb.

I keep hearing about brain fog but how exactly does it look like?

Personally (I know this sounds pathetic) get headaches from thinking and I feel like my working memory is way too short to think of complex problems.

Vyvanse will clear up that fog

>girls are obviously korean
>calls him a 'weeb'
hi leddit

try exercising first thing after you wake up
make the fog and laziness go away (for me at least)

also learn to identify when you're making excuses

Whatever, wanker.

>girls are obviously korean
>obviously
You must be in that 120-130 iq mode aren't you lad

What do you think this is? Mid to late 2016?

You know how when your vision becomes blurry and you can't see clearly?

Except it's not your vision that's unclear, but your thinking. Complex nuances of problems become strenuous or impossible to resolve and your minds eye is fumbling in the dark.

That's what it's like for me.

Sounds like a thread I would've done kek

But yeah like someone said, try to get enough sleep everynight and eat healthy

>tfw don't understand basic probability rules
>tfw have a presentation on them tomorrow

why am i such a brainlet? the rules and definitions are stated like they're clear, evident, matter of fact rules. Like here's one of the easier ones that I don't get:

Post your authenticated IQ results.

This. I only became able to study when I started working for real.

Yea I have that feeling as well. I used to have a very clear mind back when I was in high school. Now in my mind it feels like I'm walking in a dark with a flashlight when it comes to piecing complex information together.

this
get a social life and find a hobby
what the fuck does this have to do with science
good luck and go fuck yourself

I am willing to bet this has nothing to do with social life and hobby. If this was true, those autists would have been all cured by putting them in school. There has to be some kind of medical basis behind this, perhaps a deficiency in something.

Not OP. Reposting this on /adv/ to actually get answers.

At a guess, if you always shower at the gym, they're at least equally likely, but it's possible that you might shower at other times, too (yeah right). So it's possible to shower more than you gym, but not gym more than you shower.

you're just not sleeping enough user

Stop smoking dope before critical tasks.

Stop going on Veeky Forums. Seriously, it fucks with your brain

Spend less time at your computer. Sleep more. Eat better prepared food.

Brain fog is the absolute worst. It seems to be some sort of inflamation.

I have found that quitting Aspartame (Diet Coke) and wheat based products (I am not coeliac), and in general eating less, but more greens, and taking more supplements and exercise has helped.

Also NSAIDs like Ibuprofen, stimulants like ephedrine and psudoephedrine, and steroids help, both corticosteroids and anabolics. I might try nicotine, but my fog is mostly better now.

Also try to avoid brain overload - sometimes brain fog is caused for reasons a little like having too many tabs open on your browser.

Can someone explain to me what brain fog is? I've heard of it before but the don't know exactly what it is or feels like.

I think it's just a brain stuck in a thinking loop

Here you go:
Ironically, I've found consuming diet coke on its own flatlines my bloodsugar (I guess) and make a habit of taking something sweet with it.

Quitting coke was a mistake.

It's not supposed to be sensibly interpreted, you're just being indoctrinated into thinking with worthless formulas, leave it.

Sugar replacements are known to trigger insulin response in some cases. Your mistake is still drinking sweet fizz at all. Keto/low carb is the answer to brain fog.

>so even thinking about learning puts me above 99 % of the population
found your problem OP, you are a delusional narcissist who thinks he is better than everyone else

>Can someone explain to me what brain fog is? I've heard of it before but the don't know exactly what it is or feels like.

I feels like when you wake up in the morning but you can't think a clear thought. You realise you aren't able to think clearly, but can't figure out why. You wander around, but aren't able to figure out what to do.

You can look at beautiful scenes, but you don't really see anything.

When you see people they appear complex and confusing. They talk too quickly and behave in ways you can't anticipate. They make you anxious. You try to avoid them.

Cooking food seems like an intellectual challenge. Even making a cup of instant coffee involves too many stages - too much low-time-preference to be possible, so you have chocolate and diet coke instead.

You realise today is cardio day, but you don't have motivation, so stay at home playing video games.

It sucks, and you can't explain why.

feel you OP, i too am afflicted by brain fog, and it took me excruciatingly long periods of time to uncover the reason behind this

i had ADHD, so itried to get that under control, i decided to get amphetamemes to get better (and i did get better) however the effects are way too restricted as in they do not last long enough for me to not lose the rest of the day. I slowly made my way to realize that ultimately adhd coulnd cause me to feel so tired, so i investigated vital signs. i started with blood tests, that i did two times, and no result came out of it. in the meantime however, i realized that i had HYPNAGOGIC HALLUCINATIONs, SLEEP PARALYSIS, SLEEP INERTIA, FREQUENT NIGHTMARES and i conclusevly proved that i was SOMNOLENT by using a homemade MSLT (holding a spoon in your hand while falling asleep, the spoon set over a plate). time to fall asleep on a nap while being presumably well rested ? 10 minutes, while being at the time on 20mg of Addie. 10 minutse is the sign of a considerable sleep debt, but i was sleeping 8 hours per day ! I knew that it had to be a sleep disease: sleep apnea, narcolepsy, idopathic hypersomnia, or Klein Levine D. sleep apnea is ten times more common than narcolepsy, which is itself more common than IH and KLD, so i tested first the presence of sleep apnea. guess what ? me and my low BMI and my young age had sleep apnea ! SLEEP AP-FUCKING-NEA ! i quite certainly accumulated a sleep debt for around three-four years, and this shit was tearing apart my existence, brining down my performance, making me depressed and anxious because thats what sleep deprivation does to you.
if you re a sensible man OP, you ll listen to me: TEST FOR SLEEP DISEASES. sleep apnea is under-diagnosed, narcolepsy is severely under diagnosed, do at home this to see if its necessary en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_onset_latency#Home_testing_of_sleep_latency

This sounds incredibly frustrating. I feel for you my dudes. Thanks for the explanation.

This also sounds like depression. Check with your doctor

Agreed on all points.

I had great success with a ketogenic diet, but it broke down from inability to consume enough food. I kept losing weight.

At this point I'm too fatigued to cook for myself. I don't even know how to cook. Cooking is the art of making good food, but what is good food? I can't tell anymore. Eating is a chore.

Going through this right now. I have no motivation to do anything. I've been snowed in all spring break and since this isn't a vent board I'm not going to do that but just... You're not alone. How the fuck do you fix this?
