Summary

A Reddit user in r/covidlonghaulers described brain fog and anxiety after Covid: they felt high, could not concentrate, got lost driving home from work and could not do paperwork. The fog lasted about two weeks; they began a supplement to support their adrenals and non-dairy protein shakes, and the combination helped them sleep, focus and feel like themselves. Five months later they were still taking both and said their brain felt back to normal.
