Summary

Two years before writing in May 2025 they were consumed with worry about being chronically ill and troubled by muscle twitching, reading an ME/CFS forum every day. They came back to say it will pass, advising mental stillness, a CBT therapist, EMDR, exposure therapy and a long trip rather than trying to outrun it. No treatment they used themselves was described.

Their path

They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
