Intrusive thoughts of self-doubt and despair, often associated with depression or anxiety, that crawl into your brain and make it hard to focus on other things.
When you mean to do something really obvious but then you forget what you were doing and end up doing something something completely different. i.e, when you have a wrapper in one hand and food in the other, and throw away the food and try to eat the wrapper.
Brain Fart:
Person 1: Man, I had such a brain fart today.
Person 2: What did you do?
Person 1: I was holding food and a wrapper and threw away the food and tried to eat the wrapper.
