Hello. Thank you for posting.

Brain fog, also commonly known as brain fatigue, can be mild to a severe episode of mental confusion that can strike without warning. When this occurs, it is common to experience a lack of focus, poor memory recall and reduced mental acuity.

According to Very Well Health - brain fog is recognized as a symptom of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. However, people with celiac disease (hypersensitive to gluten), and other autoimmune conditions, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, also report problems with brain fog, as do people who have non-celiac gluten sensitivity. So it could affect a person with or without depression who may be sensitive.
