just leaving this here in case it helps anyone. it turns out i was gluten intolerant, but without any sort of digestive symptoms. i noticed that water fasting for 2 days helped a little bit with the brain fog and my memory issues, and decided to try the carnivore diet to figure out whats up, and it changed my life. no more forgetting what i was about to say/do, no more weird random anxiety throughout the day, no more being tired in the morning regardless of how much i sleep, etc. its for the first time in my life that i can sit in a lecture and my brain can grasp whats being said.

diet is definitely something worth looking into before you suspect its a deeper problem :) good luck!

hi all, i’ve had brain fog, anxiety, anhedonia, etc, since forever but it especially has been worse since i entered adulthood. the only thing i’ve found to consistently life the fog is eating a bunch of olives, and then i feel clearer the next day. i know its likely the luteolin helping me but does anyone have any advice on how i should move forward and what might be going on with my body? benadryl has also helped me to a much greater extent (than olives) the 2/4 times i took it, so maybe this is something histamine related?
