Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

My Fatigue has been kicking my ass the last 2 days, its been up and down but it can get so bad that I cant move and my heart starts racing, my breathing gets weird and I start to panic, luckily I have diazepam if it gets too bad but man :frowning: i hate it.

Any Fatigue sufferers in this forum?

I hope you get to feeling better. Usually when I get fatigue I lie down in bed. Take a nap. Maybe a doc can help.

I’ve been falling asleep a lot during the days recently…I mean A LOT. Like 3 or 4 times a day every few hours. Took my caffeine pill today and it seems to be helping some. Still getting a bit drowsy. May expect a nap in a few hours. Still, one nap is better than 3 or 4.

Sorry to hear that dude. Hopefully you’ll get more energy eventually. I’m sorry if I’m ignorant but what is your diet like? (have you checked your blood levels of nutrients?)

The fatigue I get while being sick with flu or covid feels different from the fatigue I get from sz negative symptoms.

Idk if I have had covid or its just a condition I have but it is exhausting, i feel terrible with no energy and it can get that my heart starts racing and I feel panicky, this is despite having loads of rest, i can get it when I haven’t even exercised and its very random.

I’m pretty uncomfortable myself.

Sounds to me like it would be worth seeing a doctor about

Fatigue has been kicking my arse the last couple of weeks. Always wanna go to bed and don’t wanna sit up. Its annoying.
I wish there was a simple cure.
I’ve been thinking about buying energy drinks see if they help but I already drink a lot of caffeine and I don’t think its a good idea. Just getting desperate to not feel dead all the time.

I have some fatigue as well but its not been too bad of late, saying that I am a bit knackered right now, it sounds like you are affected really badly with it though, idk what you can do other than follow your doctors guidance, I haven’t been to the dr about my fatigue issue but i have been told i should bc it could be an iron deficiency.

You may as well get some blood tests to confirm if it is iron

I thought for sure I had something wrong with me but they said my bloods and organs are fine. So its most likely related to SZA imo.

I might get some betaine supplments. I heard that can help SZ in mice and Im curious if itd help me.

I think it might have started when I was delusional and thought I was being targeted by the Devil prior to hospitalization in 2020,

Later my liver duct got blocked and I couldn’t move for a few days, I was in a lot of pain and had to take strong painkillers in hospital, then they said I’d need my Gal bladder taken out so I had surgery for that and the fatigue has got worse I think,

Last month I had covid and tonsillitis as well, so my body has been through a lot I guess.

Its just a guess that its a combination of all these things but idk, I cant self diagnose.

A few months ago I was nearly hospitalised again bc I panicked so much that they had to take me to A&E and I was in hysterics the whole night, that was really fkd up and idk how I wasn’t hospitalised for it & somehow I was able to get home the next day lol

Someone, somewhere will always have it worse all the way down to the worst one of all.

Doesn’t make other problems for people less difficult. You’re allowed to have a rough time and acknowledge it.

I kept asking doctors if I was tired all the time because I had schizophrenia or because of the treatment for schizophrenia. None of them would say anything except they didn’t know why I was tired all the time. Finally, one doctor who was private pay said, “Well, you take enough meds to sedate a horse.”
