Summary
Diagnosed with CFS in 2019 in Ireland, Ridge 44914 described a mild form: basic tasks were hard most days and they quit warehouse and customer-service jobs to rest. Swimming and walking the dog gave a boost, though exercise left them exhausted for at least two days. After stepping up prayer they reported more strength and hope; by February 2024 they still had bad days and were not cured but felt a net had been pulled off them.

I found that when I take in a lot of oxygen by doing deep breathing exercises, my symptoms ease off.
In context ↗ - going to the gym, swimming, walking the dog · Helped
the only time that I notice a big change in a positive way is when I make myself get out of my comfort zone and go do exercise, swimming really helps

once I stepped up my prayer life I have found a lot more strength and hope and have been successful with battling the CFS
