MY experience with fatigue- diagnosed with Chronic Stress fat/synd years ago (for all that is was worth), anxiety/clinical depression, Post nearly fatal burns- c-PTSD. My goal every day- is to do ANYTHING...from washing dishes and having a shower ..4 hours activity. I sleep badly too. For me- SLOWLY...
I saw a doc- am on an anti-d for neuropathic pain/sleep and depression- one a day...it has also lessened anxiety- which I though was mental, by 40%. I NEED the med. I levels the playing field.
- I remember the Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired/thirsty, Sad/stressed thing. If any of those- I fix it- or get some one to help me fix it. So it may mean a snack- a 10 minute nana nap and more water...LOTS of water.
I walk. Some days 4 hours, the next- 10 minutes. I keep pushing myself.
I do day time meetings- easier and good for social contact..
I see a psychologist and with CBT- work on my memory and problem solving. I keep a diary and write lists for everything. Email is good for this.
I am on a high protein , low carb diet...to level out my energy.
I paint- lots. ART- just to release pent up energy.
Empathy and support to you.
