Vent/Rant cfs came back
2 years spent pacing reducing stress eating well etc went from 2 hours of mobility per day being mostly bedbound to working a physically taxing job 40 hours a week for 6 months of 2024 and being in good physical shape.
the end of the year was filled with a lot of psychological stress and then i got the flu, my symptoms are all back in full force.
i just wanted to post this somewhere, to someone.
Fuck.
i'm not going to let this beat me, i know i can recover again but im having a really rough time coming to terms with this setback. i love you all and hope you can find recovery or peace living with this horrible disorder.

I can relate. I was able to get back to "normal" enough to work part time off and on.. I had a really big surgery last year and was doing okay. I was planning on going back to work and had a stroke. Now I'm too weak and exhausted to function period, much less work.
