Summary
Four years into their illness, they said they had stopped trying two and a half years in and taken radical rest. Crashes became less frequent, now coming mainly after a virus infection, but they reported no overall improvement and were left with no social or family activities and no activity at all really.

I stopped trying 2,5 years in and took radical rest. Although I'm not crashing as much (now only when I have a virus infection or so). I'm also not improving (4 years in now)

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 2.5 years after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 1 step says too little to place on the scale and is only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
