Summary
Zephyr 50194 has felt chronically tired since childhood, never having the energy to play with other children, and describes extreme crashes whenever they try to be more active, leaving them mostly homebound. A daily shutdown around 10:20 am brings poor concentration, blurry vision and sometimes forgetting to breathe for about 20 minutes, which two cups of coffee taken in advance prevents. They wonder whether CPTSD plays a role.
