Summary
A Reddit user with fatigue and medical problems since a severe depression diagnosis at 15 and CPTSD. After COVID twice, with recoveries slower than typical, they reported in late 2024 extreme fatigue, digestive problems, insomnia, severe anxiety and depression, brain fog and breathlessness; their doctor suspected long COVID but they were unsure. By June 2025 they said they were going through CFS again, attributed mainly to mould toxicity.

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.
