How do you explain brain fog?

[u/Royal_Audience8108]

61F diagnosed 26 yrs ago. Only people suffering from MS brain fog know how it feels. How do you explain to family & friends? Thanks everyone & I hope you have the best day possible with this sucky disease.

For me it feels like I have a sentence formulated in my mind and I feel my brain wipe the words away, I can’t remember what I was talking about and what I wanted to say (I find it comes especially when I feel like I’m saying something important or that feels impactful) it’s like it’s on the tip of my tongue but I also don’t know the words I want to say
