A member asked:
What causes brain fog, very restless and staring a lot at nothing. been doing this for quite awhile. cannot focus/concentrate on anything.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many reasons: Of course there could be a neurological cause to this but this is highly unlikely. May need to rule out endocrine etiology also like hypothyroidism. Most likely could be related to depression, also possible just plain fatigued and too much to do thus having brain fog.
