Fatigue fatigue fatigue!!
Really struggling this winter with unbearable fatigue. I’m not medicated yet as I have surgery on Tuesday and been diagnosed since 8th October but I cant even be out the house for more than a couple of hours without feeling like I’m going to collapse and sleep, get more unsteady on my feet too. It is relentless. Getting enough sleep seems to make no difference. Just want to rest but also not miss out on life
Winter is the worst for me and my fatigue levels bottom out. Honestly I know it’s sounds so shit when I say this but listen to your body’s cues and nap if you need to nap. I used to get so frustrated with myself when my fatigue was bad and I’d push through and for me personally I’d end up feeling worse in the long run. I do much better in warmer weather, I find there’s more people who do better in cold than heat but see what works for you. If it gets too much due to jobs/family life or whatever reason you have, speak to neuro or gp and I’m sure there’s probably some meds that can help!
Exercise and meditation help with fatigue. You may like to look into Spoon Therory as a way to manage your energy without over exerting yourself.
