Imagine your brain is like a messy room that needs cleaning. When you sleep, it’s doing this job, but sometimes it's not done properly. That’s why you might feel foggy in the morning. Your brain also uses energy to think and remember things, so if it's tired from all that work, it feels slow.
Examples
- Waking up after a night of tossing and turning, you feel like your head is full of cotton balls.
- Your brain had to clean up all the day’s junk, but it didn’t get enough time, so now it’s sluggish.
- You try to remember what you were supposed to do at work, but everything feels foggy.
