Anyone feeling "foggy"?
I have been sober for 1 month 9 days! Personal record and very exciting
Unfortunately I've been noticing for the last week or so that my head has been feeling "foggy" - I've had trouble focusing all day, particularly in the afternoon, and have been hard to motivate... it's also hard to get out of bed in the morning (almost like I'm hungover). This didn't happen the first two weeks of being sober, though during that time I was mostly so focused on not drinking I might've just not been aware.
Just curious if anyone else feels (or felt) this way and it's part of the recovery process, i.e. gets worse before it gets better?

Yeah Ive currently got this, my brain feels slow at times and I cant remember odd things, like what I had for dinner the day before or someones second name at work. Im just doing my best to still do a decent job and ride it out.

I was in a deep scary fog for proxy 4 months. I was actually wondering if things were going to ever clear up ? They did, hang in there.

Good thread. Thanks for the read folks.
My takeaways:
- I damaged my body by adding poison to it for years. It's going to take a while for it to return to its full capabilities.
- I need to be more serious about eating right, exercise, and stress management.
