I filed for SSD and they sent me to a psychiatrist because I have fibro fog. In this 20 minute visit, this person is supposed to determine my mental health and if I have "so called fibro-fog". I know it's very real, my neurologist and rheumotologist have both said I have it. Even without them telling me so, I know I have it.
I wish people had to spend a day with me before they could make these determinations. Even my husband didn't get it when I would constantly tell him there's a brain fog and memory loss. Literally tripping over words, or having half your thought lock itself away. Forgetting what you're doing and not being able to remember what it was. It really makes me feel small and dumb.
