Does anyone ever feel a little delayed... kind of like the feeling the morning after you take a sleeping pill or a muscle relaxer? I just feel so off. I worry about my ability to drive, etc.

Driving is very scary for me. Today I was driving a route which was very familiar to me but I couldn't recognize my surroundings. Both of my hands were completely numb and I couldn't feel the wheel in my hands. Also the hustle and bustle of traffic was very overwhelming. Soon I won't be able to drive if this keeps up.

Yes I get it bad too. Feels like I'm drunk. I'll forget stuff. Basic stuff. And my thinking is so slow.. And my mind will wonder so easily!! Sometimes while driving!! But I just have to keep focused and trying to be present so I don't cause anyone or myself an injury. You can do it! ๐Ÿ˜Š
