Unfortunately, I haven't been doing well on that front this weekend, rainy. I hope things have been better for you.

Hi Blueberry, I hope you are feeling a little better.

Quote from: Blueberry on August 26, 2024, 07:37:20 AMThank you Desert Flower, it's good to feel not alone with a symptom, somebody else understands :)  :hug:  though I'm sorry you understand because that means you have it too :thumbdown:

I just wanted to clarify that I do know this fatigue very well. For twenty something years, every two months or so, I would be bedridden for a week or so, I thought I had Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. In addition, I would have migraines, painful joints and back, allergies, etc. etc. And then, I got Long-covid, which consisted of all these symptoms together.
But then three years ago, at some point, it dawned on me that all of this was psychosomatic (I'm not saying it is for you) and all of this has vanished. And for me (I'm not saying this would work for everyone) the key was to acknowledge my feelings, my fears, my emotions. And this cleared up all my physical symptoms. So now, I'm mostly dealing with anxiety, instead of fatigue etc. And dealing with the anxiety can be daunting as well. But I do believe it should be called progress. Like I said, just wanted to clear up that I do not have the fatigue any more. And it's not meant to say anything about you. I do wish you all the best. A hug if that's okay.  :hug:
