Summary

An undiagnosed Reddit user who suspected mild ME/CFS described brain fog that made it hard to think on their feet and trouble expressing themselves in therapy. They were preparing for a cafe job interview while hoping to keep living with their parents, who were threatening a group home. They thought they could work in that state, and said that if working pushed them from mild to moderate it would confirm the diagnosis. They mentioned trying therapy; no change in their condition was reported.
