Images of brain fog

We are sharing images of brain fog to help people understand fibromyalgia a little better because they say 'An image is worth a thousand words.' 

Images of brain fog is a collection of images discovered online and includes some created by fibro bloggers and other people living with chronic illness. 

What is brain fog?

Definition of brain fog from Merriam-Webster Dictionary

In the past we have shared information about fibro fog from people living with it, but thought these images were amazing for conveying the feeling of brain fog. Which one do you like best?
