I just wondered if anybody else feels like they have a foggy head. Today I've had a foggy head all day it's like im in a dream watching things going on but not actually being there. It's strange sick of feeling like this. Don't want to be here any more my husband says I'm miserable. Wish I could find the old me

Hi I emphasise coz I do sometimes feel like that. Today for example I woke up feeling dull, stupid and mindless. I drifted through the day in a total daze. I think it is the start of a bit of a downer for me. I get these regularly then suddenly it lifts and life is quite fun for a while until it starts all over again.

Is this for same for you? x

You aren't alone in feeling like this. I'm currently suffering an episode of depression. My head feels fuzzy. I've been lying in bed wishing I wasn't here.

I hate this feeling. I just know I have to push through to the other side.

I get that a lot. Yesterday, I couldn't think straight all morning - decided to do some shopping, head cleared a bit but was completely exhausted when I got back, and I just fell asleep in the chair for an hour. When I was in town, I could hardly put one foot in front of the other, it was like one of those dreams where you feel like you are walking through treacle. Just so much mental effort - I wanted to stop in the middle of the street and stand there!

Today I'm just tired but can think more clearly. It's not medication-related in my case, so I guess it's something to do with depression.

Yep I seem to feel like this on and off. I've been feeling fine for a week(having recently stopped taking St. John's wort) and all of a sudden feel heavy headed and exhausted and very snappy. GP loosely talking depression but it's something I just don't understand! It seems to come on so suddenly with no particular stressors. I find it difficult to deal with other than rest somewhere quiet. I'm normally a very social person and it adds to my frustration that I can seem to pinpoint what or why I have these strange woozy feelings.

Hope you feel better soon

Thanks for everyones comments it good to hear that its not just me was starting to think i am going crazy. I had a bad depression last year and felt foggy for about 3 month but then i was fine for 8 month and it just seems to be sneaking back into my life. Keep having strange suicidal thought going through my brain and it's starting to effect going to work as I can't bring myself to talk to work colleagues or anybody really. I should probably just go back to the doctors

that's not uncommon: feeling unable to communicate with others and the foggy head. Remember; basically we are all the same: same fears doubts and uncertainties. One good way to deal with this is to actually force yourself to meet & talk to others as human beings we all need the contact/ interaction with others, if you lose that you will always feel sad and low. Hope this helps.
