I feel like I don’t have the mental capacity for anything
Post Body

I’m usually pretty energetic and a big dreamer in general but it’s amplified when I’m hypo. It suck’s because while I have lots of energy and ideas, when I try to act out anything I feel handicapped af. Straight brain fog and terrible attention span. I don’t have the mental capacity to grasp anything, let alone have a real conversation at times. Like I literally feel like I’m losing some of my cognitive abilities over time. For example I’ll get inspired and try to write a song, but literally write two lines and jump to another, until I’ve done this like 6 times. I’ve spent the entire weekend contemplating on what I want to do, to the point of giving myself an almost adhd like paralysis and not actually achieving anything because I spent too much time thinking instead of acting. I was planning on starting school soon but I feel like I’m not in the headspace to retain ANY information. At this point I’m just taking in a bunch of stimuli, and immediately forgetting it. I feel more incapable than I have in a while. I feel like I have the brain of a child rn.

Does anyone else feel like this when hypomanic?
