Dazed is an emotion available in The Sims 4. Being dazed lowers the rate at which any skill is earned, gives the Sim a unique slow-walking mode, and makes the Sim slower at accomplishing any tasks. The Sim may get dazed if they lose a fight, get abducted[TS4:GTW], get electrocuted, drink too much coffee, eat chicken teriyaki pizza from one of Mt. Komorebi's vending machines[TS4:SE], win the lottery[TS4:S], party with celebrities[TS4:GF], consume medicine while not ill, get poisoned [TS4:JA], get hypnotized by a vampire[TS4:V], begin to burnout[TS4:GTO], or are targeted by the Deliriate, Zipzap or Minionate spell[TS4:ROM]. Sims can also get dazed if they have the Cursed lot trait[TS4:CL], work on a workbench with a low skill level, or when the player selects "Confused" while a sim is about to surge their emotions.

Trivia[]
- Internally, Dazed is sometimes referred to as Drunk or Dizzy.
- Like the Bored emotion, there is no Very Dazed.
- Dazed sims are less likely to do activities that rise skill on their own and just like Playful sims they will dance on their own if any sound system is present and turned on in the lot.
- A namesake
Dazed moodlet was in The Sims 3: Supernatural, caused by a non-witch trying a wand spell, a Sunlight Charm backfiring, or a vampiric gaze backfiring. Getting the moodlet had no noticeable effects. - If a Sim has a dazed moodlet, every pie menu item is shown with a question mark at the end (for example, Take a Nap is displayed as Take a Nap?).
