    I wouldn't classify that as brain fog. The detached feeling that you have, I've experienced, and it's horrible, so you have my sympathy. It's like you feel flat, detached, totally separate from anything that even resembles life! Brain fog is more where your mind doesn't work: you can think straight, you lose you train of thought mid-sentence. For me, it's like someone has taken my brain out, and there's nothing there. I just can't think.
