I've had the spaced out feeling after work as a recurring problem for over a decade. Most days I am OK enough, but others the only thing I want to do is go home and stare at a wall as all cognitive abilities are exhausted.
I run 10 miles a week and bike long distances, make all of my own meals, and have been working with various doctors for years. Nothing seems to help 'fix' the issue altogether.
- shaydoc 9y agoI am the same, been like this for years. I recently cut out coffee and it's helped a little. What I also find is my heart is always at its lowest at around midday.. drops to 49/50 before lunch. I get up several times in the morning and walk around, but if I get in the zone with a problem I am always spaced out By the end of the day
- epalmer 9y agoI used to come home and slug a glass of wine or two down. Felt better fast but early in the evening I was tired. Now I just get quiet for a few minutes and then let the brain be what it is. My fog goes away more slowly but I have energy and clarity till I go to bed. In short I think the benefits of not drinking after work are better than if I was drinking. YMMV.
