the severity of my brain fog made me stop driving for 4 years, after just accepting that the brain fog probably will never let up, I'm driving again...
Post Body

I guess I'm just looking for a place for support and to complain and Express some of my new concerns, and find some validation. People in my life cannot fathom what brain fog feels like, let alone having it all day every day and not getting used to it. I just need to put it out into the universe.

My brain fog makes me feel like I'm stoned or buzzed, or something all. the. time. The best way i have found to describe it, is that I'm living in a video game. The moment when I knew I had to stop driving was when I was driving threw the town I grew up in, and lived in for 22 years, and I got lost on my way to pick up my brother from school.

I'm just now driving again, because I'm living on my own, and it will just be so much easier to be able to transport myself. My brain fog hasn't cleared up in anyway, no matter what I try. I got a GPS for Christmas i have in my car, but i hate the feeling of not being 100% there in my mind when I'm driving, even though it's how i feel every day.

is it a good idea to try to "move on" and start driving again instead of relying on others for rides for everything, which I've been doing for the last 4 years..?

I actually just ran to the gas station for some milk, and once I got into my car, I instantly like woke up, I came back home, now I'm outside playing with my dogs.

I'm also wondering if it's some symptoms of my depression, from not being able to get out that much in the past few years. I think I just need to get out of my mindset that "well, I'm a loser and going to stay home again today."
