Hi everyone,
Im very new to this forum, have been diagnosed with CFS/ME officially about 3 months ago and have been suffering with with this condition for about 3 years. I am in a bit of a rut at the moment as I have no idea what to do to help me take positive steps forward.
I have had to move back home with my parents. Any opportunity I have to speak to them about "making a plan of action" is met with dread, confusion and arguments, which is counterproductive and creates a toxic atmosphere. What makes any planning, and conversations about taking steps forward nigh on impossible is the ghastly brain fog which completely incapacitates me to such an unbelievable extent.
I've realised it would make sense to gain advice and guidance from the very people who've experienced the very trials and tribulations I'm currently going through. I need help with getting my feet off the ground basically and need YOUR help! I have a basic idea of what to do but not entirely sure about what to start with and what to focus on really. I know I need a recovery plan, someone to talk to who understands and things to get my mind off the illness, but as I've said I don't know where to start. Im just constantly in a fog. If anyone has any useful bits of advice, tips or techniques on how they got themselves moving forward I would be unbelievably grateful.
Best Wishes
Jamie
