Summary
They were doing well in the gym during the first five months of 2022 and had put on 20 lbs, then deteriorated, describing themselves in December 2022 as mentally and physically exhausted and badly wanting to feel normal again. An early derealisation episode while driving brought on what they thought was a first panic attack, and they still dwelt on it whenever driving on the highway, though their driving issues had improved somewhat.

How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, in the order they describe; they don’t give enough times to place each step. Hover or tap a point. 2 steps say too little to place on the scale and are only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
