Apart from extreme exhaustion that hits like a torpedo, Just one of the many symptoms of the complex debilitating condition known as M.E (Myalgic encephalomyelitis) Is cognitive impairment. It often feels like my brain is a wall of marshmallow and the thoughts that I have and the words I want to speak are somewhere right at the back behind it all and they are all jumbled and to process them more clearly so that I can verbalise them I have to try and get them to the front which requires trying to squeeze them through this thick spongy blob. Sometimes it works… and other times they still come through jumbled.
