You just don't know what the brain will do. Cope with your symptoms as best you can, while hoping and praying they improve.
Ever feel like your mind is wrapped in a thick fog after a traumatic experience? In this episode, Cynthia Bailey-Rug tackles the often-overlooked symptom of brain fog that many face after trauma. Brain fog, sometimes called 'grief brain', is a common response as the brain struggles to adapt to new realities. Cynthia, drawing from her own journey with Cptsd, breaks down why this happens and how you can manage it.
She emphasizes that brain fog isn't just a mental hiccup but can be a sign of deeper brain injuries caused by repeated trauma. Understanding this can help reduce self-blame and offer a clearer path to recovery. Cynthia offers a toolkit of coping strategies, from leaning on faith and prayer to using tech aids like Google Keep for organization. She also highlights the therapeutic power of writing—whether journaling or making to-do lists—and the joy of creative outlets like painting or crafting.
The episode is a blend of practical advice and heartfelt encouragement, reminding you that patience and self-kindness are key in navigating brain fog. Tune in for a compassionate guide to finding clarity amidst the haze.
