InfiniteSadness, you are wise to see your doctor about chronic fatigue. There are many things that chronic fatigue can be a result of, besides depression: mono, narcolepsy, sleep disorders...etc. Make sure you get a full physical workup before determining that it is indeed depression.
I deal with chronic fatigue and have actually been using an energy management plan developed for narcoleptics (I am not diagnosed as such, but it still works). Try Googling narcolepsy non-med treatment, and suggestions for energy management come up. Good luck with the doctor! Seesaw

When we moved from California to Oregon, I got sick with a strange illness. I don't know what it was and I had no medical coverage at the time, so could only have one office visit and a CBC. It showed nothing, but I was constantly tired and weak for almost a year. It eventually went away but I had to work all through that. It was awful.

Medusax, from your description, it sounds like you could possibly have had mononucleosis or even epson-barr... both can last a year or more, and even have lasting effects....
i deal with chronic fatigue complicated by other things, such as sleep apnea, hypoxia, agoraphobia, IBS and diabetes. i recently began taking 2000 IU's of vitamin D3 and am recovering from the IBS and had a noticeable increase of energy in the past week. IS, i hope you find a quick and easy fix; life is such a drag when you're tired all the time~ ![]() ![]() ![]()

Wow. My guardian angel must be hard at work because she led me to this thread. Chronic Fatigue explains so much. I know when it hit me
and now I can stop beating myself up for not fully recovering from the heart attacks and the subsequent poisoning of the blood thinners. Once again proving my inner critic is a moron. SeeSaw, you genius! I'm all over that energy stuff--looking for it soon as this post is finished. So much better than what I had thought of. (Speed.). You ladies are the best! ![]()
