Lately, like these past 2 weeks my brain has been foggy. I've been confused about the month and the season. Today I was wondering where my toothbrush was and if I had unpacked it since a trip I took at the start of the month. Then I realized it was my electronic toothbrush that I use and it was right in front of me.

I've also been getting staring spells and just in general being spacy.

I'm dealing with pretty bad diverticulitis and I'm waiting to hear back from a surgeon. So maybe I'm just distracted by being in a lot of pain and nausea all the time. I don't know.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Rest quiet plenty of sleep and fluids. Meditation music for healing pain.
Thanks for this!

I know it's like a lot of stuff that people suggest these days but self-compassion could help. Sounds like you're going through a lot and just being kind with yourself could most likely help.

I agree with the above. Take it easy andPractice as much self-care and self-love as you can manage.

I’d agree, lots of rest and quiet time might help, sometimes our brains are just overloaded with too many thoughts to think straight.
