what do I do if I have life ruining chronic fatigue? like I just cant do things like other people can im not meant for this shitt alarm clock slave society. I cant do it.
I get so fucking tired if I cant sleep like 10 hours and no matter how much sleep I get It still doesn't matter I have to wake up like in the perfect rem cycle or the perfect thought process or I just get catatonic fatigue where I cant even function
I get brain fog so bad I mix up my words. my eyes will sting and burn all day long like I have a bunch of salt in them or something. my bags under my eyes take up my entire fucking bottom eye lid and its as dark and red as possible it literally looks like I painted black rings around my eyes. im completely flushed pale like sickly looking as fuck I look like I got cancer like 3 times and keep getting chemotherapy and the cancer keeps coming back or something
it gives me really bad nausea and my stomach cramps and feels sick all day especially in the morning. I cant think straight or do anything right. im too fucking scared to get out of bed and have to do anything for 4+ hours because I know im just going to be tired as fuck, possibly faint, be close to fainting the whole time. im constantly trying to drink water and get fresh air so im not on the verge of fainting. I get painful migraines when im tired like my eyes hurt and any amount of brightness starts hurting them and I get a really bad pain in my eyes and head. I cant make eye contact or talk normally because the bags under my eyes are so bad I feel people judging me and ive developed a weird non eye contact demeaner that I cant fix now
also im in legal trouble and being required to get a job. can I get a doctors note or something to get out of it? im really fucking tired

That netflix show was supposed to show you why not to be a retard not encourage you to be like them
Jose Thompson
Are you talking about the show Afflicted? If so, OP is clearly one of them. He made the same thread before, this shit is all in his head.
Isaac Edwards
I thought this was supposed to be not a legit condition or something? Apparently the science behind it is dodgy. Well if it aint real then that means you just have depression probably
Andrew Parker
I didn't know my thoughts could give me migraines make me exhausted give me black rings under my eyes and sap all my energy and make me a useless husk of a human
ive literally always felt like this. happy sad or whatever
Kayden Ward
How about you go to a fucking doctor
Samuel Perez
You can get migraines from stress. Last thread you claimed your diet was perfect and that you went outside atleast once a day. If that was the case you wouldn't look like the sickly cancer patient you claim to.
Aiden Baker
but I do do that...and I do look like that. going outside helps but not much. whenever im really tired I try going outside and drinking lots of water so I dont faint
Grayson Rogers
Have you ever even fainted? Why don't you reply to - go see a doctor.
Jonathan Sullivan
What's your diet like? Maybe you're lacking a vitamin or mineral. make sure you're getting enough vit D and B3.
Oliver Gutierrez
yea I have. one time I was up and didn't sleep a lot and I didn't eat for a long time and I just fainted randomly and I had it happen one other time
I went to doctors and shit but I just have a really bad anxiety and phobia of needles they freak me the fuck out. I need a benzo in my system just to get blood drawn and volunteer for it. they just freak me out a lot so I put off testing for stuff.
Adam Bailey
oh and the brain fog and cognitive shit might be from not enough B12. I'd get a bloodtest, OP.
William Miller
I eat a lot of healthy stuff these days but I dont always eat healthy I do add some fattening greasy stuff in there too.
Julian Wilson
but if its just something like a vitamin defiency shouldn't just taking an all around multi vitamin help? I used to take them every day as a kid and was still pretty tired.
Jaxson Wood
>they just freak me out a lot so I put off testing for stuff.
Bet you love your little special mystery illness too much to get tested. You need to seriously get a grip of yourself before you fall deep into munchausen syndrome.
Jose Hill
> can I get a doctors note or something to get out of it? im really fucking tired
alright, OP -- I know you are tired, so lets keep this brief
1. Have you been to a Doctor about your condition?
2. What Country do you live in?
3. What are your Current living conditions - do you still with parents or out on your own?
4. What kind of support are you receiving from Family, friends, Doctors and State Welfare?
5. How long have you been dealing with this condition?
no man I would do anything for this to go away. I had to get tested for lyme disease and every time they were about to put the needle in me I freaked the fuck out and told them to stop and was having really bad anxiety
I dont want to be a tired freak. I dont want to be bed ridden. I dont want bags under my eyes and to be pale. for a long time I thought it was depression and it would go away but im started to realize its either not depression or the depression just isn't going away
Owen Perry
Would do anything but a tiny needle. Come on. I'm terrified of them myself, but you're an adult so you sit the fuck down and take it. Close your eyes or something. You're really not fighting hard to cure this.
Jason Rogers
some other user on /b/ told me his dad got tested and had a bunch of diseases and he just took some pills for a month and he was all better
I want to get it done but now I dont really have health insurance or anything anymore
Anthony White
Hello, you most likely are clinically depressed. I have been struggling with the exact same problem as yours for 8 years now. Unfortunately, antidepressants and other depression treatments have a good effect on me willing to do things and get back the love I always had for things I live for. However, the constant, unending, crippling and terribly acute fatigue is still here. Nothing the doctors made me try at first helped. Hell, I had tried to sleep literally for 20+ hours, force myself into heavy sleep, nothing changed. I've tried getting to a normal, steady sleep cycle - nothing. I even tried sleeping less, to see if maye my body needs just less sleep. I have changed every single thing that was wrong in my habits, especially my diet. I cook myself everything with whole foods all the time, never overeat. N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Absolutely NO CHANGE AT ALL ! Some doctors told me that they had such patients, but that was extremely rare. I'll even tell you the truth - in my country, medical use of amphetamines and its derivatives (regardless of the dose) is not approved. All isomers of amphetamine, and amphetamine-like drugs and research-experimental treatments are 1. heavily regulated 2. "even more illegal" than heroin. So, I admit, that specific doctor (and some others i have been close with for years) strongly implied I should try to get amphetamine or methamphetamine, and use them therapeutically - very limited and strict doses, as they said the problem my country has with this product is scandalous especially for all their young patients that have extreme fatigue and concentration problems. They can't do nothing. The only thing I've been prescribed was methylphenidate (ritalin i believe it is commercially called? i always ever get generic medication). It helped a lot. But only to make me able to be active without fatigue for two or three hours at best. So I eventually went and get meth. Things are better now, but not ideal. I still have these crippling moments.
Asher Clark
I don't advise anyone to take the same path as I do. Because while it has solved SOME problems, it created many, many others. First - the fact that I need to live a "double life" because if anyone in my professional environment, even remotely gets the clue that I use illegal drugs, my career is over, and because of the nature of my job and its responsibilities, it will get me to prison for a long time. And yes, the everlasting problem of tolerance building up, the problem that sometimes, taking speed and meth feels good and you tend to go on a binge and get high with it instead of using it as a medication, and frankly, it's something I sometimes had a very hard time with, during the first years. The constant fear of a drug test on the road by the cops : finding just even traces of amps or meth in my saliva will get my driving license taken away, expose me to the court and legal problems, and will just as much end my career and everything I've worked for. Is it worth it ? Honestly, I can't even honestly tell you. I don't know. I'm still lost and I still need help and I just don't think I can keep like this on my own for much more time. I believe I will eventually just go on a burn out and kill myself one day. Seriously, good luck...
Blake Bennett
fuck man find something besides drugs. im OP and stimulants and shit actually make me feel straight up worse and shittier.
cant you just do coffee or something so you dont have to worry about tolerance and destroying your health?
Eli Stewart
Unfortunately, coffee does not help me at all. I have tried every kind of dose - it does nothing but makes me unable to sleep, while still being tired on the same extreme level. I know I don't have the correct solution at all and I believe it's even worse. I sincerely hope I can eventually get to enter a medical research program and study, a special case where I can be used as a test for medicating my problem with the newest and not yet approved products. I just have to be active. I can't just let myself crippled into bed or pure nothingness on a chair, I have to do it, not just for me...
Easton Phillips
if it works It works it just didn't work for me so im not sure how.
have you tried kratom? its an herbal solution and a lot of people say they take it just for work and it helps work as a stimulant without being that strong
Grayson Scott
I have every single thing you mentioned, I feel exactly what you're talking about. I don't want to scare you but you might have a serious illness. Because I do, I got an autoimmune disease that is making me weak and is all sorts of fucking me up. I've also been severely depressed for at least a decade so that might be the reason too.
Asher Kelly
I have heard about Kratom. Unfortunately, my country is very strict with it. Also, I have had problems with heroin in the past, I believe I should stay away from products that have a similar effect than opiates... I could not write enough in my posts, so I only wrote the most essential parts. Heroin was something I had tried (and that worked really well until I got addicted very badly to it), some other stims I have tried did not have a good effect on what I have at all. I still keep in contact and close with my doctors, just to make sure I don't get in this again, and to see if maybe they can eventually get me to one of these programs.
Ethan Kelly
fuck man maybe if you live in a really hot climate you can just grow a kratom tree or something. there's gotta be some sort of natural solution. I know it wont mean much but there's teas like green tea that have caffeine and cant help. making you body adjust to a mild pick me up has gotta be better then relying on meth
Charles Stewart
If you're still here, OP, add me Menesis#5692, I'm
