If it makes you feel any better Den I do live in the same country as you. Near Melbourne.
Have you had your B12 levels tested? Sometimes if the level of B12 is too low then it can mimic Chronic Fatigue. I get really tired too.
I live on my own but try and get outside even if its just to get groceries. I have also pushed myself to go to craft groups. They don't go for too long. When I find I have had enough its okay if I leave.
Sometimes I feel like loneliness is an emotional cancer.
You might be lonely Den but you aren't alone.  |
Hi Possum220.I live in Adelaide.We arent that far away compared to the rest of the world.
Its the chronic fatigue levels that prevent me from going anywhere.I've had cfs since 2000.I just dont have the energy.When I first got struck with cfs I could barely walk 40 feet out to my car in the carport.I can walk around the units here.I play piano,I get through 2 songs straight then I got to suit down coz I'm gertting puffed out.Because of the lack of energy it stopped me getting out and about.Herte I am many years later.
I am alone.I dont have companions who can visit,just carers who call in with my shopping and thats it.I need social contact,friend visits.I spend less time on the internet now.I'm in a lot of forums and I still havent found anyone local to chat with over the phone or who can call in.The computer didnt solve my loneliness.
I've had that emotional cancer thought.I guess I wasnt sure saying would be a good idea.
Are you in other forums? I joined a lot,for anxiety disorders and cfs.
Thanks.
