Poor diet or skipping meals can make this worse. I feel depressed and it's really hard to bring myself to cook anything. Sometimes I wait until I'm weak and dizzy before I eat. My mood and energy levels are especially affected if I go to sleep hungry.
There's something called "executive function" which I think is a brain task/function that's not happening the way it's supposed to when we "sit around" and feel disorganized. If you want to google it. I did, to remind me what my brain is supposed to be doing and what it *does* do when it's working properly.
I hope things improve for you.
p.s. forgot to say that there are medical conditions like low thyroid levels that can cause similar symptoms. Sometimes if we're diagnosed with mental health conditions, treatable medical conditions can get overlooked.
