Mental fog: a common phenomenon in people with fibromyalgia

Mental fog, also known as fibromyalgia, is a cognitive phenomenon commonly associated with intense stress processes and, above all, fibromyalgia.

These are not mere forgetfulness, nor common negligence associated with nervousness or the effect of the passage of time.

The person experiencing these processes has a clear feeling that something is wrong with his brain.

Fibroblast patients often forget their relatives’ names, become disoriented, can not concentrate, and feel unable to make decisions at any given time.

They are specific events that come and go; However, the person lives it with such intensity and, above all, with so much fear that he has the distinct sensation of being already living the beginning of a dementia.

The fibroniebla includes several cognitive failures that are momentary.

That is to say, the quality of a person’s life does not accumulate or weakens progressively until it is completely disconnected from reality, as happens with dementias: it is something that lasts seconds or minutes.

People suffering from fibroblasts suffer temporary “losses or absences”.
