It almost seems to be a given that anyone dealing with CFS will at some point have to deal with an exceptionally difficult interpersonal relationship involving someone being critical of us for our health difficulties. I think the following two paragraphs are quite remarkable in that they succinctly describe the kind of person (or mentality) I believe many pwCFS either have dealt with, or will deal with at some point. Just having a good understanding (from a spiritual perspective) of the kind of person who turns on those close to them could be helpful for those of us who are faced with this type of situation.

The critical person is one who is constantly finding fault with everyone and anyone. His or her destructiveness does not seem to distinguish between total strangers and loved ones, glaring crimes and innocent oversights. In fact, the most common victim of the critical person is his or her closest friends, mates, and blood relatives. The critical person lacks a sense of proportion, which is the hallmark of any good leader.
This type of person does not have a sharp mind or keen discrimination. The nature of this mental habit is so inwardly destructive that it prevents those individuals immersed in it from developing rational skills. They cannot think things through. Their anger is their shield from revealing their inadequacies to the world. Mostly, others are afraid of them, and they do often appear forceful and strong. But this is an appearance only, because behind so much anger is a well of fear.
