I’m a hostess at at restaurant and I have to be pretty quick on my feet. Often times I find myself staring into space or forgetting what table numbers my coordinator tells me to go too. And these are simple tasks too. My doc told me that it was ADHD, and that adderall should help. Here I am now weeks later and still experience fibro fog. I don’t have trouble focusing, and I really struggle because everyone I work with thinks I’m a ditz who can’t do her job. I often have to reassure people that Im “not that dumb” because I honestly know my brain isn’t working properly. And I’m not going to tell the whole staff that I have fibromyalgia because it wouldn’t make a bit of difference. This is hard to get over, especially since this is the first time my intelligence has ever been called into question.
I am sorry you are having such a hard time at work I am truly blessed as my coworkers are such a supportive bunch. I no my fibro fog gets worst if I do not get enough rest.
