Hello @wattsonsbuttocks and thanks for reporting in!

This issue is common and can often be fixed by disabling all game overlays that you have active.

If you are running Discord, please go to the Discord settings and to 'Overlays'. Then disable the overlays in the game!

If that doesn't work, please also try out the overlay of Origin itself! Here is the original post if you need a bit more information.

Good luck! Let me know if it worked!

Ye if you can't use your mouse it's because you have the overlay enabled. The mouse gets confused with which layer it is on.
