Hi! Unfortunately I got sick for Christmas and had to stay home; but as I was trying to rest, it almost felt like I physically could not keep up with my mind. It felt uncomfortable to think idly, and of course there wasn’t much I could do to help that. Not sure if I tried meditating, and if I did, I didn’t say “I’m gonna meditate now,” if you know what I mean.

I’ve tried looking it up and the results mostly talk about “brain fog,” and while that may have been a small part of it, I wouldn’t describe this experience as such.

Has anyone else had this experience? Like normal ADHD brain is exhausting and hurts while sick?
