The thing about cognitive fatigue or “brain fog” is that it doesn’t change the way your brain works: it just scrambles it. You still have the same curiosities & drive for learning & knowledge, but you’ve lost the ability to learn & think at the speed & capacity you did before. Hence the disability.
