post-COVID doldrums

I’m over COVID, and just have a little lingering bronchitis. Also some of the worst brain fog I’ve ever had. I feel like my brain’s been through a blender. Spatial relationships make very little sense, my reaction times are super slow, I am definitely not safe driving right now, and so on.

My standard state of affairs is best described as “dazed and confused” right now. I feel like my mental acuity has pretty much gone away. I’m also making a lot of ridiculous spelling mistakes when I write, and I’m having trouble stringing together basic procedures for things.

Basically I feel like I’ve taken massive brain damage and this has me all sorts of fucked up.

At least I’m not alone in this but that’s cold comfort. If I can’t recover from this, what future do I have? My brain is pretty much the only thing I had going for me and now I don’t even have that.
